After spending quite a long time in that dark and cold place a lot of fireflies came that lit up the place with them is a beautiful man with long green hair and pointy ears. I was so mesmerized and staring when he open the cage door drag me out.
He..hello where you taking me to?- I asked but he just keep silent. I didn't probe further cause I will know it later and soon enough I found my self in the most beautiful hall I ever been so wide, colorful and really fantasy like. It more bigger than the vampire castle hall. Infront of me was long table with a lot of elf sitting around it. The man drag me again and have me sit near the leader I think since she's in the middle. All eyes were on me I just smile awkwardly.
So your the Werewolves human queen what your name?- the leader asked in warm tone.
It's Reklanar. - I respond.
It nice to meet a human after such a decade, I'm Hernili the queen of elvian. You must already about us right?- I nodded. Obviously they are famous in folklores.
That right your famous to the human. So can I asked why you called me here?-i asked. The door open and the man earlier come and bow to the queen which she also respond in mid then she look at me.
Nothing special, I just wanna greet and meet you myself and the rest of us. Anyways we apologise for treating you like a prisoner I hope you forgive us- ngumiti lang ako.
Look like they're already here.- nagtaka Naman ako Kung anong ibig nyang sabihin. Napatingin ako sa pinto ng bumukas ito at pumasok si Naseth at ibang kasama nya. Fuck. Napakagat labi na lang ako.
Greetings, king of Werewolves clan. - the queen stood up to greet them they exchange a bit if formality then Naseth come near me but when he touch me I launch a punch straight at his face instead.
Can't you read situation dumbass. Stop following me already I don't want to have anything related to you.  Nor to this fucking world. You got it!! So get loss and stop bugging me!!!- I finally release my anger and run off out there. I walk and walk angryily I don't care the beautiful scenery nor the elf's looking at me I just get randomly. When I calm down I hide in the bush and cried in there.
Meows.. - I look what it was and it was my cat.  Meow meow.. kinuha koto at yinakap. You show up again. Your always in my rescue. Nabawasan naman Ang lungkot ko nagulat lang ako Ng bigla syang nagtransform as a boy in my arm. Eh??. Wahh.. napatayo ako at sakto namang tumama ulo Kung sa Kung ano..
Aaaw.. - napatingin ako Kung Sino to habang hawak Ang ulo kong naitama Ang sakit.
Wait,.  Hernili?- I asked ng Makita itong hinahaplos Ang baba. Umayos Naman to at ngumiti.
Hey there you are what are you doing in here? With a Bakeneko- she look at the boy behind me. So hes a Bakeneko and now he's blowing a gum. Where the heck he get it from.
I'm supposed to asked the same. What are you doing here?- Tanong ko. Tinignan nya muna ako Ng maigi bago inayang mag usap pero bago yan pinaligo nya muna ako at binigyan ng dress. Sa maliit na syudad Nila nakiupo ako kami sa Isang tea restaurant habang nakikita namin Ang mga elvian na abala sa kanilang buhay. She sip in her cup and I just wait to why she want to speak up.
Do you have fight with Naseth?- she directly asked. I'm not surprised she talk about that after what happened earlier.
It nothing new. - I shrug and pick up the tea.
I can tell you two was never been close. That child was really a cold prince but I know he's sweet and care for you as his wife. - I rolled my eyes by his words.
Yeah right. Ofcourse he should because he need me.- di maiwasang maipakita Ang inis saking tono.
Would you care to tell me more in detail?- I shook my head.
I'm sorry, but I don't think the reason even matter. -  I refuse.
I see. It alright. But can you hear me out for moment? Don't build up so much burden in your heart speak up to someone you can trust in order to let go and open your heart. Your a lovely girl and I know your understanding, do it for yourself not for other. Who knows you two may fix this. Remember you can't escape your fate even how far you run away.- I just smile.
Yeah, I think I can do that again. Maybe it's better for me to go back as tool everyone use and throw when used where I am comfortable. I think I can still be happy like that and not grumpy like now. I hate that fate I blame him for everything that happen if he come to me early on instead heading to somebody I might not meet that man and become a substitute. He just show up nowhere and snatch me. I just smile and go with the flow as a tool hoping that they may also treasure their tool just like those fantasy I watch and read but when they threw me I saw their shadow linger with their treasure and it's not me. I gritted my teeth and hold my tear when things no more in my memory they show up again. Look like people not monster both specie nor world doesn't have a space for me.  I'm sorry.. - I apologized realized what I've spoken so far and wipe my tears ànd smile at her before I hurriedly  leave. In the ground I Lay down when the cat went to my tummy. I let this and asked for his name which he said CINOSA. I pet him and talk to him well I'm the only one speaking tho. I don't how many time has passed but before I knew I had fallen asleep.

Third Person
Right after Reklanar leave  Hernili return to the palace when she encounter Naseth who asked the whereabout of Reklanar.  The lady invite him to her study room which is a not so wide room with a square table in the middle and the ambiance is so earthly and close room.
Why do you call me here? - he asked but wasting time.
Have a sit, we'll have a talk- they stare for a moment seeing the key was serious Naseth sat down. The queen serve him a wine.
Can you..... Why can't you tell me first about all happened earlier?- Hernili cut him off.
It out of your business, I believe- Naseth
Did you throw her because shes already a used tool?- The queen asked which take Naseth attention.
What are you pertaining to?.-Naseth puzzled.
Did the vampire was connected to that girl?- she continue to asked. And Naseth getting upset being ignored.
What do you mean.? Can you at least explain what you pointing out already- he asked back. The lady out down the glass of wine more soundly so Naseth puzzled what ls up to her.
How terrible husband you are. No wonder that pitiful lady run away from  you. Tell me did you do something wrong?- Naseth was silent. The queen looking at him intently. Though they are both leader if their own clan Hernili was more older and befriend with his father in the old time so he respected her. He decided to tell his problem and all happened hoping that she might help him solved the situation.
Since you brought it upon yourself then fixed it.- Naseth was surprised hearing that from her.
You should recognize your fault and root of it all then try solved it. Just remembered human had a freewill and freedom they maybe fool and easily played but they still human with emotions.- Hernili stood up and pat his shoulder before she walk away. Before leaving Completely the room she glance at him, her eyes fill with disappointment as well as sympathy.
