An Assassins Life by C. S. Drummond (short books to read TXT) 📖

I'll let you in on a secret.

I'm an Assassin. I'm small, and it's remarkable that I can take just about anything and survive. I heal faster, run faster, I'm smarter than, and stronger than humans.

I'm like a vampire, except vampires don't exist... Humans mistook Assassin's for vampires. We don't need blood to survive, and we don't have to kill you to become an Assassin.

Assassins are a race of what used to be humans. I'm the last one left because I don't play by the rules. The rules are called the Assassin's Creed. I was born, not made, you have to take the Assassin's Creed if your made. I was born away from the rest of the Assassins. My father raised me and taught me everything I needed to know to be able to kick Assassin ass whenever they came looking for me.

My mother was human. My father used to tell me stories about her, how they met, why they got married. I never knew my mother because I killed her unintentionally. I killed her by being born. My father used to say he would never change a thing because he loved my mother and then he got to love me. My father's dead now. He was killed by other Assassins because he ran away with a human. I was 19. I stopped aging that very year. They told my father they wouldn't hurt me if he went with them, they lied. They came after me a few days later. They only sent two Assassins. They never went back to base.

I've lived for a long time. I can never remember my real birth date, but I was born in a distant land in a distant time. My father could tell you how old I am but, of course, he's gone now. I realized something long ago, I would always be alone. Nobody could live with me for the rest of my life. Theirs maybe, but not mine.
