Once upon a time, there lived a great man, but he lived hidden between mortals, no one truly knowing his real identity. He was popular but being popular between these mortals made it easy for his enemies to find him. He wasn't looking for anything really, but he knew he would find something, or better yet, someone he needed to. One day, he came across a woman, beautiful beautiful woman. After some time, they started being seen together. They would spend time with one another publicly and didn't mind it. Everyone was happy for them. What they didn't know was someone, one of his enemies was lurking in the shadows, watching his every move. One day, she decided to go visit him, to surprise him since it was his birthday. She was being followed. When she was heading to his house, turning onto the last street to arrive at his house, she was taken. He had gone out that day and heard from some people in the town that she was going to visit him, so he started to suspect something had happened since she had never arrived. While heading back to his house and passing the street where she was taken, he found her bag and a note inside saying where she would be. Being the person he was, he went searching for her without thinking twice about it. On his way there he had many obstacles but seeing as he only wanted to rescue his loved one he paid no mind to them. When he got there, opening the doors to a huge abandoned chapel, he found her tied up, on the floor. He ran to her and freed her only to be blocked by 5 men, one being his enemy. He asked her with the gentlest voice he could muster 'close you're eyes' and so she did. Only to open them when he asked and seeing all the men on the ground dead. He turned to her, his eyes a golden color, but still in love with her. As she looked at him, taking a step back, she looked into his eyes and asked the most complicated question 'what are you?' He gently and lovingly looked into her eyes and told her 'i am no human nor god, but i am a man that loves you till death, and even maybe then i will still love you' she stayed still thinking whether or not to believe him or not. Only to realize, she had nothing to fear because she to loved him. The end
