Ara now can understands the meaning of eyes are the window of the soul. At this moment, when she stares into his pretty blue eyes, she can see the deep haunting and sadness blanketed by a layer of masked happiness. She can see how the melancholy look in his eyes slowly morphed into surprise and shock, before a wave of relief hit them hard, sending it tumbling further down into oblivion.

He looks at her in disbelief, as if she is too divine of a being to grace him with her presence.

He looks at her as if her smile is the only thing that could possibly matter.

How that even makes sense?

He just saw her eyes, not even her entire face, let alone her smile.

But nothing of that matters at that moment. Because unbeknownst to her, her eyes shine with the same relief, the same happiness in his eyes when she looks at him.

But of course, how can she forgets? Luck is not on her side.

Too short of a time staring into those gorgeous eyes, in the next second everything suddenly went black. She couldn't see. Darkness swallow her sight and not a ray of light could be seen. She wonders, is she suddenly went blind? Is the God hates her that much? To add on to the already suffocating pain she already have her entire life. Amidst of she questioning the purpose of life, she suddenly feels different, a physical difference.

The feeling certainly is not pleasant, her head throb strongly, and her entire being feels weird. Her ears ringing sharply, forcing her to cup them with her large hand as she doubles over.

Wait a moment.

Large?

Her heart thumps crazily against her ribcage. Something feels insanely not right.

And then she feels it. There's no weight hanging on her chest and head like usual. Her legs and arms feel longer with muscles rippling under her clothes. She is an assassin, as in a paid killer. Yes, she have muscles and her body is lean as a result years of hard training. But this, this muscles are the kind of a man should have.

And what about the weight between her legs?

What the hell.

Ara herself can't answer that because she doesn't fucking know what is happening to her right now!

When her ears stop ringing, she started to register the shouting around her in panic. She open her eyes, bringing her hands in front of her eyes.

Long, elegant fingers.

Something on her wrist catches her eyes. It's a soulmark. And it's just a letter. Like hers.

She caress the cursive 'O' letter on the wrist. Under her own eyes, the line to shape the 'O' suddenly glow with... gold?! before it dimmed back to black.

A soulmark should turn silver and stay silver when a person met their soulmate.

But his, she guess, and maybe hers too, is gold and it did not stay gold.

Another mystery meaning another wave of headache for her.

She turns her attention back to her body and the already there frown, turned deeper.

This body belongs to a man. From the corner of her eyes, she can just see the platinum blond hair on her head now. Ara takes a deep breath to calm her crazily beating heart. She have an idea of what is happening to her right now and to be sure...
