(S)113. Snake

That wasn't a snake, I don't know why but I had this strong intuition that it isn't a normal snake. And only one species of living things can shapeshift. The demons.

I got up and returned to my room in a daze. Locking the doors behind me, I hid in a darker corner as if that would save me. I could feel the fast beatings of my heart through my ribcage.

I had met a demon. While carelessly sleeping under a tree in the garden. What if something had happened while I was asleep? How could I have let my guard down like this?

The issue of my marriage had distracted me from my main task, which is to defend myself. Part of the reason I agreed to get married is to protect myself without raising suspicion. How had things turned out like this? Is this place even safe? This is just my first day here and I've met my first demon. How many more would I meet as time goes on?
