Cultist In The Night
Before I had fully fallen asleep with Elfinia, who was cuddled into me, I laid a few traps and warnings. I was almost certain that one of the cult members would try something tonight, and I was not disappointed.
I wasn't really sure what time it was when the bell went off in my mind, waking me up, but I didn't move or open my eyes. Instead, I rolled on my back from Elfinia casually and activated the Mana Runes in my eyes. This allowed me to see the person that was trying to close the door quietly or at least the outline, so I became a cat, slipping out of the blankets.
The woman was in a dark cloak, and she turned around to look at me in surprise but then looked at the bed. I dashed forward, got behind the woman, then transformed back before she knew what happened, and covered her mouth as I placed a paralyzing spell on her. The woman went stiff in my arms, but I heard movement at the door.
