R&R

Chapter 1

Zoey's POV

"Kalona is taking over the whole school, no one believes us." I informed Damien, the twins, Aphrodite and Darius.

We had returned to the House of Night after Kalona rose from the earth to see the extent of damage he had caused to our school and the people inside. Much to my dismay Stark—a guy who I had fallen for—was still Neferet's puppet.

"It is as we feared then; he has gotten into the minds of every fledgling and Vampire at this school." Darius said.

"Not necessarily." Damien replied.

"Please just please." Erin said followed by Shaunee—they weren't known as the twins for being identical.

"Don't go into school teacher mode."

"I'm not!" Damien snapped back at them, but I could tell he was about to go into school teacher mode. "I'm just saying we can't be sure that everyone her has been affected by Kalona until classes tomorrow."

"Ugh! We still have to go to class?" well that sucked!

"Of course we do." Damien replied in a tone that implied I was an idiot—which sometimes I was.

"Reinforcements!" Darius suddenly yelled making Aphrodite leap 10 feet into the air.

"Goddess warn me next time you do that." She said sitting back down.

"I am sorry my beauty, but this is urgent. I can get reinforcements here."

"Really? Who?" I asked extremely curious.

"An old friend who is now a guardian at St. Vladimir's, an academy that teach Moroi and Dhampirs."

"Moroi?" Shaunee asked.

"Dhampirs?" Erin added.

"Moroi are a type of vampire, each one has a magical connection to one of the five elements they are very different to you. Dhampirs are half human half vampires the offspring of a Moroi male and a dhampir female as dhampir males cannot reproduce. Dhampirs train to protect the Moroi from Strigoi, which are evil vampires that were once human, dhampir or Moroi. The guardian I know is one of the best and will hopefully be able to help us." Darius explained answering all of our unspoken questions.

Okay I was not expecting that. "How do you know all of this?" I asked him.

"I was once asked to become a guardian, but turned it down as I wanted to remain loyal to my oath and my goddess."

Made sense. "Okay, what's this guardian's name?"

"Dimitri Belikov"

Dimitri's POV

"Concentrate Rose, don't lose focus." I told my student and love of my life. We had our morning training session, this was one of the few reasons I got out of bed early. Her.

"Well, if you don't want me to lose concentration you're gonna have to leave." She replied. We always teased each other about our relationship. No one knew that we were in love, except Adrian Ivashkov and Victor Dashkov which I was not happy about.

"Get used to it." I replied smiling at her. She was always able to make me smile.

She grinned back at me and then it slowly disappeared. She sighed and put her stake down. "I'm really going to miss this." She said so longingly and sadly I wanted to wrap my arms around her, but we had to fight our attraction, she would graduate soon and then we would both be Vasilisa Dragomir's—the last Dragomir princess and Rose's best friend—guardians that along with the fact I was her mentor and seven years older than her were the reasons me and her had to resist our attraction.

"So am I." I replied sadly.

She walked up to me, standing mere feet from me and I could feel the heat coming from her body.

"Rose..." I trailed off as she reached out and let her fingertips slide across my jaw line.

"I just want you to know something, I love you and I always will and I want us to be together, even if it means I can't guard Lissa anymore."

Her words meant alot. She was willing to give up guarding her best friend for me. She was willing to give up the life she had been planning for years for me. I never thought I could love her anymore, but at this moment I did. "You can't give up that, you are bonded and it's what her parents wanted, I can't let you give that up for me, no matter how much I wish I could."

She sighed and dropped her hand; her eyes were filled with un-shed tears and pain.

"But maybe I could." I said as she turned away from me.

"What?" she asked clearly surprised.

"I said maybe I could, resign from guarding the Princess and get reassigned somewhere else at court."

"You...You would do that for me?" she asked, tears threatening to pour out of her beautiful, dark eyes.

"I'm willing to do alot of things for you Roza, especially if I get to be with you."

Without warning, she ran up swung her arms around my neck and kissed me. I kissed back, missing the feel of her lips against mine. I loved this woman, I always will, no matter what others might say. I was in love with Rosemarie Hathaway.

We jumped apart when we heard the gym door close. I didn't need to look at her to know her disappointment reflected my own.

"Guardian Belikov?" It was Alberta.

"I guess practice is over." Rose mumbled walking toward the training room door that would open out to the gym.

"For now." I replied and she turned desire clear in her eyes.

We walked out of the training room, Rose, having picked up her stake, gave it to me and with a quick nod to Alberta she left.

"You have a call." Was all she said before handing me a cell phone. I nodded and took it.

"Hello?" I asked in my business tone.

"Dimitri Belikov, it is Darius from the Tulsa House of Night School."

That was a surprise. I had met Darius on a few occasions we had gotten along as well as two seriously dedicated protectors could. But why was he calling me?

"I suppose you are wondering why I am contacting you."

"Yes actually."

"I am in need of your help."

"With what?"

He told me that a fallen angel had rose from the earth and taken over the house of night and that Darius along with five fledglings have returned to the school and seem to be the only ones unaffected. He told me he needed help to protect these fledglings. I agreed but with a cost.

"I will help, if I am able to bring a few people." Rose was the only one I was thinking of, but including her would include Lissa which would no doubt add Christian and Adrian into the mix.

"Of course, I can talk to the head mistress at your school if you wish."

"One question, how are you planning on getting us in the school, with that angel, a crazy high priestess and Raven Mockers?" I said the last words disbelieving.

"My young priestess is very gifted and will be able to get you in here."

"Very well I will contact you when I have found out if we can go."

"Of course and if your head mistress wishes to speak to me call me."

"Of course."

"Merry meet, merry part and merry meet again."

What the...? "I'll call you as soon as I can." With that I hung up a walked to Kirova's office.

Zoey's POV

"So is he coming?" I asked Darius as he walked into my dorm room where my friends and I had been waiting while he made his call to this Dimitri Belikov.

"He will call when he finds out, and he will not come alone." Darius assured us.

"Well that's a relief." I said.

"It sure is." Said Aphrodite adding "Well shit, I'm tired so I'm going to go to bed and I will see you all in the morning."

"Gotta agree with you there." Erin said.

"Ditto twin." Shaunee added.

"Curfew was a while ago so I better get back." Damien said hugging me and leaving followed by the twins and Aphrodite who gave Darius a very meaningful look.

"I will be right with you my beauty." He said to her as she left the room.

"Priestess, will you be alright alone?"

No Kalona can get in my head, of course I won't be. "Sure, I'll be okay. I'll see you tomorrow or I guess tonight."

"Good night Priestess."

"Darius, you can call me Zoey."

He smiled. "Goodnight Zoey."

"Goodnight Darius." Then I was alone.

I sighed and got ready for bed, but luckily when I dreamed they were my own.

Love it?

Hate it?
