"Here's your coffee, miss."
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4t2cAw4Ju4
"Oh. Right, sorry." The waiter smiled.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2T3IeEP4Dj
Warm scent tingled my senses.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yIOSjAMDp
Attraction.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgJxWZathv
I took a sip from my cup. Great, even the coffee is cold.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb810KxglRz
Usually, I'm able to control my ability from surfacing, but with the blood moon drawing near, my senses are somewhat heightened.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvo1rsEcUbt
I shook my head for the nth time today. It helps refresh my mind a bit, somehow, to compose myself from sucking the essence out of everyone I stumble upon. It's barely 10 am, and I'm on my fourth coffee but my headache keeps getting worse.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnvuk1eX91
I could just stay home but then Andres would be there, and I have no time to deal with his emotions, which ironically, I'm dealing with a lot of those right now.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVhpubbDcN
Unable to breathe, I grabbed my bag, put some paper bills on the table and went my way.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIEZf0TZHH
The streets are so quiet. One would think mortals aren't overwhelming.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGL0xsz5Dx
I take a look at my back, making sure I wasn't followed.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQAr0NKO1M
I'm on the run.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oeEQFauaZ
For the past two centuries, my kind has been hunted down to extinction. I'm not even sure if I should be pleased that I wasn't one of the fallen.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTkHqRghhwf
The fallen. The descent. Night creatures, as we now call them.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtu9bxL8oQ9
However, I'm somewhat in between. An abomination, if you ask them. Cursed, and according to the High Souls, I must be annihilated.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtKaV1rkOLG
Ten minutes of walking and I'm sure no one has followed me. I slid into an alley and took the mirror from my pouch.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hrE7Rw8dn
Occulu de Desiro. Mirror of desires. It’s a portal that leads you to your greatest wish. But to open it, you have to offer your deepest, darkest secret.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZn4LbwxCJ
It’s a small circle mirror with intricate details of vines around the edges. There's a glamour on its surface to keep it hidden from mortal eyes.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡju5HKWZlZK
Before I proceed, I whispered a protective spell to hide me from mortal eyes. Just in case things don't go as planned.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenK1fTqz5P
I held out the mirror, and with a shaky breath, I whispered my secret. "I am Sienna Nightfire, the last living descendant of the Esencea Bloodline." The mirror took my offer with a glowing light bursting from it.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EjigGLiZ2
The brightness caused me to close my eyes abruptly as dark mist surrounded the alley.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDs305fRVE2
Cold air filled my lungs, and the brightness vanished. I opened my eyes only to find myself floating in the abyss.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleKuGEgbGq
I'm inside the mirror, I thought.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYbd4gRZ0h
I looked around, and a dim light came from my left. Instantly, I found myself swimming towards it. The light became brighter as I got near, and then suddenly, it stopped.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0lmAbTguF
My eyes squinted as I adjusted from the sudden change. I feel the earth on my feet. Birds chirping. Waves crashing the sea.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5hYw5bnIs
When I can finally see clearly where I am, I couldn't believe it. The mirror brought me to the place my heart long the most. My island.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASGU2YLN4k
Hidden from the sight of any creature who dare to find it. A house stood at the center of the mass. Old, and abandoned for 18 years. My parents' house.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jZnlxdrN0
I remember my mother's hanging garden in our backyard. Father's hand-crafted vintas. My heart swelled at the memory.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFJXcnmu3g
I took two steps, and the world shook beneath my feet.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhi3hogGw1
"No no no! Not yet!" But the mirror does not listen to its intruder.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSiM5P68VcU
My mind is swirling. The ground gave away, and I'm falling, my arms flailing as I fell.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4cXiaXvaI
This time, I couldn't fight back the sob. Two years of planning in stealing the most sacred item of the Faes, and I only get to have a minute to savor its worth.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1OlUx1RCb
A few seconds later I heard a thud. I'm back in the alley, the mist backing away inside the mirror, and I watch it break into pieces.
184Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgeziIcLmRt
This is it, then. It'll only take about an hour for the magic to reach the Spiritus, and I'll be hunted to death; not that I'm not already. My life has always been a step away from death.
