"Murder is born of love, and love attains the greatest intensity of murder."

A girl with long salmon hair tied in pigtails run in the depths of the woods for her life as she was being chased by a certain beast that was after her life.

Hopping from tree to tree in order to escape, the beast was quick but she was still in the lead while using her legs to its full power.

Though luck wasn't in her side as she tripped from the tree's roots, her face fell flat on the ground as she slowly sat up while massaging her wounded forehead.

She heard the growling of the beast as she looked up and saw that it was almost trying to reach her. She began to stand and ran again but her legs just won't listen to her commands.

My legs won't move...

Feeling panic, tears began flowing out of her eyes as she began to punch her legs to stand. "Come on...stand...!"

Knowing it might be the end of her she closed her eyes shut and waited for the beast's sharp canine teeth to graze her mercilessly.

She began to trembling while still on the ground, unable to move. Then the sound of ripping of flesh pierced the air as she opened her eyes and saw blood all over the place.

The huge beast fell on the ground, who just died from the horrific hands of the person standing in front of her.

She unconsciously stared at the person's bloodied hands; they're nails were long and sharp, not only that, there were also veins popping on his hands.

Her savior turned around and faced her as the first thing she noticed was how beautiful his eyes were, it gleamed so brightly, so magnificently.

"Are you okay?" he asked.

That was the first statement that he told her as this person was the one who was going to change her whole life.

The sentence rolled out of his tongue as it sounded like sweet, honey, melodic like sound. His voice was indeed pleasing to the ears.

"Y-Yes, thank you." she replied.

This boy had an attractive appearance consisting of snowy white hair and sparkling sky blue eyes, he began to wipe off the blood from his hands with his handkerchief.

"Can you stand?" he asked again.

"Yes." she spoke as she attempted to stand but soon then crashed on the ground. "I-I think I can't...."

Then the boy crouched down and held his back to her as he turned his head to her. "Climb aboard."

"But..." she says with hesitance.

"If you aren't going to climb, I'll go on my way now." he says as he was about to stand up when she tugged on his white shirt, making him stopped in his tracks.

"W-Wait...please carry me!" she says hurriedly, changing her mind.

"Sure." he said coolly and lifted her feet up in the air as he carried her in piggy-back style.

"U-Um...thank you very much." she whimpered while being carried by him.

"It's fine." he nonchalantly replied as he started walking with her on his back.

"Why did you save me...?"

"Oh, did you preferred in not being saved at all?"

"N-No, that wasn't what I meant at all. It's just...why would you save an stranger like me who is unknown to you?"
