"As a day well spent brings happy sleep, so a life well spent brings happy death."

In the middle of the night, I had woken up, feeling sweat dripping down my body, I had to get up to let some fresh air hit me,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXX0kzpyr0i
Once I opened my curtains to open the windows, I realized it isn't the middle of the night, the sun hadn't risen yet, but I could see the shine of it already,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEklHSHcVKN
I opened the windows and let in a deep breath,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0TXnDruZv
The cold air grazed my soft cheeks as if they were daggers against them,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Sf4A47G71
I had tried to stretch while I was in front of the window, but an unsettling feeling had set in again,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYYolj7w0Q
My body was being conscious of its surrounding, even the sunrise couldn't help to make the feeling of being watched less creepy,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLWtvC9L34
I had a very bad feeling deep in my gut,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjybE3YTZi
and my guts are usually right,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPJxUli5wN
the cold fresh air swooshed my hair around, I didn't fail to catch sight of something move deep in the shadows in the forest, it was a place that belonged to Cian, who other than Cian could be there?
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oo9Zzs3vG
It could have been simply Cian there, but that's not the feeling I would have gotten if he had secretly watched me,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9U1joElFkk
No, this feeling was not a pleasant one,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3afQN5thk0
This one is when your every action is watched to see a flaw in, so they could attack once there is an opening,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfUqcP3Yyp
With the eerie air of the unknown wrapped around me, I pulled my black cloak out, hiding my whole body to not be identified, I pulled my big hood over my head, I decided to crawl out of my window with my twin blades attached to my wrists,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bj55feeLT
The moment my feet were about to touch the ground, I had whispered a spell to slowly put me on the ground.
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HUqyWxP9g
Easy spells could be learned having the right amount of power even for a human, so I could easily do this anytime, it was quicker than walking,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKj7zCud8ba
Looking around, I slowly crept through the shadows of the forest,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASJqvN0mG1
The forest was darker than the outside since the sun hasn't risen yet, but to begin with, the forest looked like a place where no sun could shine through, the trees were overgrown, if you were barefoot you would feel the wild plants around your toes, very uncomfortably, I had no idea how Cian could shift here,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqd1uWFwRQ
The trees swooshed and swayed as a strong wind passed through the silent forest, I had arrived at a small clearing, making my way to the middle,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSF08H8iiFM
I had nothing to lose, and I sure as hell wasn't scared of anyone,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡToMQjnNEG1
I closed my eyes momentarily as I felt a presence surrounding me,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAbetpFg5X
I opened my eyes under my hood, they could never identify me unless I willed it, of course in this case it wouldn't work for Cian, but this wasn't Cian,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxw9BI1Utwl
They were other creatures,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6ITgkQHTw
There were 5 of them, at least 5 that I could see,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSXyPEw0r4j
By the looks of it, the first one was a vampire, she had her fangs bare and her pale complexion gave it away, her red eyes glistening in the dark,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTE61S4zQO
The second one was a werewolf, his half shifted body had gave away his identity as did his bulkiness,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmJsVYlp5x
The third one was a curious one, I hadn't seen one face to face, but his skin had been scaly like a fish, if I had to guess he came from the ocean, a merman,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3opvNHitY
The fourth one had a dark complexion, she was beautiful with grey eyes and fiery hair, the dark skin and fiery hair had given her identity away too,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIh0vJm06u4
Now the fifth one, her stare alone was icy, her blue eyes, white hair, her whole body looked like she came out of ice. She wasn't exactly hard to guess.
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo57T5FzhMt
What they didn't know is that who they are facing isn't as kind as king Cian,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4plOufcQ2
They all suddenly lunged at me,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzy3PaTPr3U
these amateurs,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzLuIodK5r
Smirking under my hood, I instantly stuck one of my twin blades in the head that belonged to the fire lady, and as she stared at her friends in shock, I had used her head as a way to get myself out of the group killing strategy, it just happened to be that I thought I needed a good grip to flip out of the group of idiots,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRuvco8dfZ
The werewolf screamed in agony,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVq1ga0EJA
"Oh, so that was your mate" I answered with humor in my voice to taunt him,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9OMZMlPER
An expression of hatred rose through his eyes, he lunged at me, aiming for my heart,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDCAL7bRSH
I bet he thinks he could get my heart out,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6Wy7hdi4O
Without moving from my place, I grabbed his other hand and cut of the one reaching towards my chest, the hand toppled away on the ground as he screamed in pain, this time for his hand,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwccCZsbdu
"What is your business here, who dares to enter his majesty's property"
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwnWj5ZWx5
As the three others watched me, slowly backing away, trying to make it as secret as they could, shook their heads in terror as my other blade had met his right eye, my sharp blade stuck in his skull momentarily, I had managed to get his eye out of its sockets, the eye had stuck to my blade as I used my other hand to get it off of my blade,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjrtIlmygL
I let him go, I wanted him to die slower than the others, to think there is hope for him that he would survive,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2FC6VN3IDT
I ran towards the other three as they turned back to run away from me,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVL7rc6F70
I had stabbed one of them quickly in the back where his spine was, then pushed him away hard on the ground, his head meeting a lucky rock, knocking him out instantly while he slowly bled out,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8WRSuqjVY
The two other girls had been running next to each other, pulling each other to run quicker than the other in hope to distract me, little did they know they are both in the palm of my hands,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdzzbHp2xH
I had quickly jumped towards them and caught up with them, I grabbed their hairs and slammed their heads to each others', one of them quickly passed out while the other one fell to the ground,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaiNvbODji
"Answer my fucking question, lowlife"
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspixSEV5Qu
The white haired girl coldly stared at me, life slowly draining from her, her eyes rolled back as her mouth hung open with foam building up in her mouth,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE26clJlYka
She was dead,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmXrDef2Hr
I looked around her body, as I saw her hand clutching around something tightly,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9tsJIi3qk
I pried it open with so much force, cutting myself in the process,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3Cksg1aTa
She had a syringe in her palm with it completely empty, a drop of poison had seeped into my new wound,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ruPwr4iCo
It was nothing I couldn't handle, but it was going to hurt regardless,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBp2KtW7AD
I threw her away as I slowly stood up, the wind hitting my sweaty skin,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLUHDiV3E2
the wind had grown warmer so it seemed like it was past sunrise,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vwod8G4W6
My hood slightly revealed my nose and lips, still covering my eyes, I didn't have to worry, it was coated with magic, my identity was hidden,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6LXUH5lq9v
I heard a crunch behind me, and the small whiff of my mate's scent had hit me,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxALvufOatX
Cian was here and a magic cloak is not going to work on him,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGcTKjOGIL
I was a great distance away, he shouldn't be able to smell my scent, especially mixed with the masking scent I have on me, but I couldn't risk it,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01X5YbgHxL
I pulled my hood down further as my cloak swayed around with the wind, I couldn't risk it, he could catch my scent with how strong the wind is,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1bd46eNet
As quick as I had appeared, I had disappeared just as quickly, catching a brief sight of Cian as I made eye contact from afar with him, his godly carved face set into a dangerous scowl as he tried to catch me,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfsj97fTAV
But I was gone,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEXiocbnXx
