"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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslefVQLZRB
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCvJohrSZV
I opened the windows and let in a deep breath,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNJkXvi3Lp
The cold air grazed my soft cheeks as if they were daggers against them,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpWawjBmMU
I had tried to stretch while I was in front of the window, but an unsettling feeling had set in again,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbf0yv4GKDC
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbg7Hr5oT6
I had a very bad feeling deep in my gut,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpv7nfZaxdp
and my guts are usually right,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHq4M3gEYLq
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkjLvoNGTR
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWmgStwIx9
No, this feeling was not a pleasant one,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hBDW7jf9p
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdk540wnlFC
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81gB6lODtC
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dt5x0R2UC
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xGsgIVOTE
Looking around, I slowly crept through the shadows of the forest,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLli6e0Kwbc
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡug7kjACEUI
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXavUTPiGGF
I had nothing to lose, and I sure as hell wasn't scared of anyone,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAf5b0Xskr
I closed my eyes momentarily as I felt a presence surrounding me,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NdoAkrQqL
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlE8iVbyB3Q
They were other creatures,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HsT09d15x
There were 5 of them, at least 5 that I could see,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjJ7YbrOGw
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovlQkcxQV0
The second one was a werewolf, his half shifted body had gave away his identity as did his bulkiness,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9cQPCnvk5
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24gzbVEWU8
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaT6nK0vZ6c
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlaq8lgXyR
What they didn't know is that who they are facing isn't as kind as king Cian,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTwzFRxXTRn
They all suddenly lunged at me,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPa23hrpFl
these amateurs,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dhNcCdz0f
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WhQohsr9h
The werewolf screamed in agony,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPxhuvxyzH
"Oh, so that was your mate" I answered with humor in my voice to taunt him,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmgWGhJFrN
An expression of hatred rose through his eyes, he lunged at me, aiming for my heart,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IMaT574qK
I bet he thinks he could get my heart out,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjK2kN4qJHG
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wNnf5RDSK
"What is your business here, who dares to enter his majesty's property"
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0W1HaWQkvt
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmnRgzAQ27I
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEybDhW4yOp
I ran towards the other three as they turned back to run away from me,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlfcwi9Liq
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOCaG1VwP0
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gym9jMMD7
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3tZuVIoes
"Answer my fucking question, lowlife"
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXlh4FPcYb
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5O234x3V0
She was dead,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNc7jbxPnu
I looked around her body, as I saw her hand clutching around something tightly,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6YgoLTwg9
I pried it open with so much force, cutting myself in the process,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZwflBXsOT
She had a syringe in her palm with it completely empty, a drop of poison had seeped into my new wound,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdPgvWCQyB
It was nothing I couldn't handle, but it was going to hurt regardless,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXYxd2yBXz
I threw her away as I slowly stood up, the wind hitting my sweaty skin,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNo3vNPGQ1D
the wind had grown warmer so it seemed like it was past sunrise,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKD2e5sUZu5
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8MYUXfWPYf
I heard a crunch behind me, and the small whiff of my mate's scent had hit me,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLN0GqAXmhV
Cian was here and a magic cloak is not going to work on him,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRdl6RiF7V
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXli52roBPz
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFMVuUz5fN
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbevbbA3wue
But I was gone,
212Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8a94vmqbvh
