"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,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡau7ZnxdakY
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,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7Aze56m4h
I opened the windows and let in a deep breath,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKjYc8pP3i
The cold air grazed my soft cheeks as if they were daggers against them,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKP0yXqV6JT
I had tried to stretch while I was in front of the window, but an unsettling feeling had set in again,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnBum7wEZT
My body was being conscious of its surrounding, even the sunrise couldn't help to make the feeling of being watched less creepy,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW10LzQAUpM
I had a very bad feeling deep in my gut,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxyEP70Vpq
and my guts are usually right,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOiOWfkT7K5
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?
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMS0Le01VHL
It could have been simply Cian there, but that's not the feeling I would have gotten if he had secretly watched me,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhX4PLIwtcV
No, this feeling was not a pleasant one,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg19WYR0zsj
This one is when your every action is watched to see a flaw in, so they could attack once there is an opening,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡatw7ILCENA
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,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkjcQ3i8QY
The moment my feet were about to touch the ground, I had whispered a spell to slowly put me on the ground.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBeBsbBK9HZ
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,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHoOdWYduC
Looking around, I slowly crept through the shadows of the forest,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vceXsXVsD
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,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwT7NGCoPJ
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,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJG8fHhGmo
I had nothing to lose, and I sure as hell wasn't scared of anyone,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMfpm1DaUX
I closed my eyes momentarily as I felt a presence surrounding me,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjjT0xkAQA
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,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLaqP182we
They were other creatures,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVW7PM7yoLG
There were 5 of them, at least 5 that I could see,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWu6jpbtra
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,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyz0TVAY3WM
The second one was a werewolf, his half shifted body had gave away his identity as did his bulkiness,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUeyTxUckw9
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,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspRqRwNv1R
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,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6Roic8Pze
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.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsu4Vmpxfe
What they didn't know is that who they are facing isn't as kind as king Cian,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2PCr1E7Jn
They all suddenly lunged at me,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTyblfmmHST
these amateurs,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGzkLRxKPb
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,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkc9R43RfX
The werewolf screamed in agony,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGovQM27gWr
"Oh, so that was your mate" I answered with humor in my voice to taunt him,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkrqoG8Rrb
An expression of hatred rose through his eyes, he lunged at me, aiming for my heart,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCsMa9yVEC
I bet he thinks he could get my heart out,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVpDQNglZV
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,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL90UzhDsur
"What is your business here, who dares to enter his majesty's property"
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpuYKQ2WXv
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,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9HPz2AiwCV
I let him go, I wanted him to die slower than the others, to think there is hope for him that he would survive,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCumzZh9Nqo
I ran towards the other three as they turned back to run away from me,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOFlzk7vpp
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,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWcv0CXaDr
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,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Ma3QD1q8F
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,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Mz5gRlMqa
"Answer my fucking question, lowlife"
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nsHBbERRr
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,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OMg859Kwb
She was dead,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXbb6ImTMI
I looked around her body, as I saw her hand clutching around something tightly,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgjL6bul7R
I pried it open with so much force, cutting myself in the process,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7ZVsHEuHh
She had a syringe in her palm with it completely empty, a drop of poison had seeped into my new wound,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvIsdJ8Tyz
It was nothing I couldn't handle, but it was going to hurt regardless,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2lwoiIIAFw
I threw her away as I slowly stood up, the wind hitting my sweaty skin,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcad17anUx
the wind had grown warmer so it seemed like it was past sunrise,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLz60RSRvn
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,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6TUApICAgC
I heard a crunch behind me, and the small whiff of my mate's scent had hit me,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC02mqGHCHv
Cian was here and a magic cloak is not going to work on him,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ESvsRcFWw
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,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEtiss6CDl
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,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TvKjbNlPc
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,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡboHQs46Zyl
But I was gone,
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡem7p0FUFg7
