"Here's your coffee, miss."
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29bIvo03aK
"Oh. Right, sorry." The waiter smiled.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGwbxczjik
Warm scent tingled my senses.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptaEdF1WZL
Attraction.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsl20Qm9Pk
I took a sip from my cup. Great, even the coffee is cold.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03lRElzdCF
Usually, I'm able to control my ability from surfacing, but with the blood moon drawing near, my senses are somewhat heightened.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKfa4fBHDn
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.

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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFreSB4SMhm
Unable to breathe, I grabbed my bag, put some paper bills on the table and went my way.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPQDG5nYNX
The streets are so quiet. One would think mortals aren't overwhelming.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡst9wPKf9ee
I take a look at my back, making sure I wasn't followed.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvGIjZqtNH
I'm on the run.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdGV1MwyxE
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk4BMmnOXUn
The fallen. The descent. Night creatures, as we now call them.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlcZM2lULRG
However, I'm somewhat in between. An abomination, if you ask them. Cursed, and according to the High Souls, I must be annihilated.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl62kRZFMrG
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WAwiFB2fK
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwU5r82vFe
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKElhtCuynB
Before I proceed, I whispered a protective spell to hide me from mortal eyes. Just in case things don't go as planned.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡle4JD4mfJ8
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuuddIpOhoO
The brightness caused me to close my eyes abruptly as dark mist surrounded the alley.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzbCsF4tgr
Cold air filled my lungs, and the brightness vanished. I opened my eyes only to find myself floating in the abyss.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2aaqPotIAW
I'm inside the mirror, I thought.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AdDvkqBWG
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKydbhSlEU
My eyes squinted as I adjusted from the sudden change. I feel the earth on my feet. Birds chirping. Waves crashing the sea.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvMr3dpTeY
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkaFWUXzwg
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPrunX8KdF
I remember my mother's hanging garden in our backyard. Father's hand-crafted vintas. My heart swelled at the memory.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSptPuDWek
I took two steps, and the world shook beneath my feet.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzwNSPPffK
"No no no! Not yet!" But the mirror does not listen to its intruder.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQXZUfRZNF
My mind is swirling. The ground gave away, and I'm falling, my arms flailing as I fell.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zQ57mjhqF
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2ldNJXZSh
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocPcTjWHpQ
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.
