"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,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3uXuycLP2
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,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5X8jquW9Hu
I opened the windows and let in a deep breath,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsGpmmhF40
The cold air grazed my soft cheeks as if they were daggers against them,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ447fIe2dQB
I had tried to stretch while I was in front of the window, but an unsettling feeling had set in again,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsxCzskq9U
My body was being conscious of its surrounding, even the sunrise couldn't help to make the feeling of being watched less creepy,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrDoFFuGQy
I had a very bad feeling deep in my gut,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4gmNLxqlI
and my guts are usually right,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMIv7M00Q1
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?
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAQi402gl0
It could have been simply Cian there, but that's not the feeling I would have gotten if he had secretly watched me,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNL2mJntiOK
No, this feeling was not a pleasant one,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4g2neLIfI3
This one is when your every action is watched to see a flaw in, so they could attack once there is an opening,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJj5PRtSIIY
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,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1qBumic9x
The moment my feet were about to touch the ground, I had whispered a spell to slowly put me on the ground.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOl8akYhCT
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,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxuPsm8EeaR
Looking around, I slowly crept through the shadows of the forest,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQZPIcT1jT
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,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLs111h9px
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,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYuMLpiHqQ
I had nothing to lose, and I sure as hell wasn't scared of anyone,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabZIFdublp
I closed my eyes momentarily as I felt a presence surrounding me,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfdHTXBVpv
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,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSV1BOpwnA
They were other creatures,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMHfGpBv0H
There were 5 of them, at least 5 that I could see,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9g1LINUc3W
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,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1AUQBRrsQB
The second one was a werewolf, his half shifted body had gave away his identity as did his bulkiness,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7lZKnBqTYN
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,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoInK01dit
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,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzR1eWl8AH5
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6XSfmMzAP
What they didn't know is that who they are facing isn't as kind as king Cian,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbpljpbUyL
They all suddenly lunged at me,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEOt5NCbGpq
these amateurs,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl734mBTSUQ
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,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIp7lfrhut
The werewolf screamed in agony,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6az3vrQII
"Oh, so that was your mate" I answered with humor in my voice to taunt him,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrImhpzVl5d
An expression of hatred rose through his eyes, he lunged at me, aiming for my heart,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCRxm7VXwt
I bet he thinks he could get my heart out,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlqt4vSqwC
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,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYHwtVrF4x
"What is your business here, who dares to enter his majesty's property"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUoYSQPQI6
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,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYq6fD4O6tY
I let him go, I wanted him to die slower than the others, to think there is hope for him that he would survive,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4TGrOHwZU
I ran towards the other three as they turned back to run away from me,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkqydvFAEu
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,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrd43LTDHAS
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,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnaZ2L7Yu8
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,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsaxHbjG6U
"Answer my fucking question, lowlife"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1teyBXbJAJ
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,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdb5spLrn7u
She was dead,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlj4V5E56lK
I looked around her body, as I saw her hand clutching around something tightly,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0N2f1SaTad
I pried it open with so much force, cutting myself in the process,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7UwbZrS90
She had a syringe in her palm with it completely empty, a drop of poison had seeped into my new wound,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQobujr6ymg
It was nothing I couldn't handle, but it was going to hurt regardless,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡloMi2DVnfr
I threw her away as I slowly stood up, the wind hitting my sweaty skin,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKreg31Qfo
the wind had grown warmer so it seemed like it was past sunrise,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOCr9MmXbH
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,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ajDq2BMJf
I heard a crunch behind me, and the small whiff of my mate's scent had hit me,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzOMd4foxu
Cian was here and a magic cloak is not going to work on him,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡssslMQnqmS
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,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNyP11ayES
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,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJhEnwuUDs
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,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrmUbcd4U2
But I was gone,
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEA66o73QG
