Bang! A small column of smoke rose from the barrel of his pistol, and the werewolf dropped dead. A sigh escaped his lips as Damian rose to admire his handiwork - a silver bullet straight into the heart, deadly for every lycanthrope. This particular one had been causing trouble in the outskirts of New York for quite a while now, resulting in a few deaths and raising the interest of the hunters in the area; Damian being one of them. Hunting had been the trade of the Rye family for many generations, protecting New York from the many evils that were hidden in the world. Just like Damian had done on this night, where he had chased the monster to this dark alley after a week worth of searching. Although he was relieved to have to have finally killed it, he didn’t have much time to catch his breath as police sirens were getting louder rapidly. He had to get out quickly, and get back to the safety of his home where he hopefully get a bit of sleep before he had to go back to his other life.<br/><br/>His other life - teaching English to a bunch of young adults at one of New York’s colleges. His father had always insisted on him having a normal life, although normal was a loose term for hunters. Regardless how difficult it was to maintain appearances during the day and hunt at night, having a mundane job provided him with a cover and a more reliable source of income, making his nighttime job just a tiny bit easier.<br/><br/>The next morning started bright and early with Damian waking up before the sun had even shown itself. Having the first lecture of the day was just lovely after a night out hunting. Despite of the lack of sleep, a few cups of coffee got him through his morning routine and his commute to the college, where most of his students were already waiting for him to start when he arrived at the right classroom, ready for him to start.<br/><br/><span style="font-size: 9px"><a class="username" data-user-id="4" data-username="@Natalya" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" href="https://blackdahliaroleplaying.com/members/4/">@Natalya</a></span>
