Lavinia's POV
Tiring. It's all so tiring lately. The slow needy pace of this world and the constant stress of human behavior. The need to survive off of them can only be described as tiring for me.
"Fuck my stomach hurts" I grumble getting out of bed and floating through my house. The food lately has been disgusting but it's all I can find. I run hands through my curls leaving my cabin home.
It wasn't hard putting this place here. The middle of the woods weren't often traveled by humans. Hunters only came in a few miles in the same circles to hunt deer and other weak non-magical species.
It was revolting. Humans always thought they had the upper hand. Always believed they were superior when the only thing they have is adaptability. Even that has its limits when it comes to true power.
I heard the rustle of the trees, looking past them I saw a human. It smelled male and like a young adult of maybe 25 years. I turned my body solid feeling my feet hit the grass. I started to walk as I hummed my song allowing his spirit to sense my presence.
"Hello? Who's out here?!" The man said taking grasp of his sword.
"Just I..." I called out coyly coming through the brushes of berries. I grabbed a few of them mixing them with a some of my powers. "No need to fear."
"Ah.." the man said letting go of his weapon. He looked over my body in the morning early morning light. "Why are you out here? And alone? Tis quite foolish to not have a warrior or at least a man by your side."
"What need a man for?" I asked him walking closer. My dress was white, and always pristine. The low cut in the front was similar to a sleeping night cloth. The thin straps always reminded human males of the poor workers in their villages. "A man has done nothing for me. A man is like Thompson's colt, I've gotten along just fine."
"Have you now?" He asked me moving closer before taking my free hand. "No straights on your feet? A nightcap hugging you right as a python. The seams pay burst from your...."
He went on and on about my body. I slowly introduced him to the berries while taking his perverted compliments. Each berry he ate the closer he got to me. And in a moments notice he was all mind for the taking. So I took, like I always did.
Bodies were getting heavier or I was just getting weaker. I also had to remember this guy was head and shoulders taller than me. My body felt stronger after I had drained him of everything he was.
"Ok this isn't working!" I grumbled getting on my knees to take more of his being. His body began to shrivel up into skin and bones. I wanted to channel more of my power but decided to save it and just use my physical strength to carry him. "I need to do better, I'm using more strength than I'm gathering."
After a little while I drop him on a small ditch. It wasn't one that a dug but one that was made by the forest itself. It was a nice spot to leave your trash. Humans would be able to find their people and there was also a line drawn so they would know there's danger.
There was a rustle in the trees and I could smell someone else. More like, something else, someone different from myself but not a human. It was an animalistic scent, similar to a mountain lion but also some kind of growler. I couldn't really tell any specifics, I had never smelled anything like this before.
So I left, there's no need for me to get into an unnecessary fight. I had my prey and now they can go hunt theirs. I'll kill whatever that thing is if I have to but I don't want to use the last big of magical energy I have on a useless fight.
I think I'm getting lazy.
I had heard the rumors in the town. The strange 'beast' that attacked stray hunters in the woods. It was a useful rumor, though. The local townsfolk were too afraid of coming into the forest where I lived. The stories of killer bears or wolves or mountain lions, whatever it was the weak humans were scared of, it made most of them stay away. And for the few wonderfully brave and stupid who wandered into my territory, they were met not by a fearsome beast but a lovey maiden fair. And they never saw the true danger coming for them.
