Jill's point of view! Chapter 1!I was at a private meeting. Many mori have been getting killed lately. Royal families and non-royals were frightened. People were afraid they would be next. Lissa is queen so she has the unfair responsibility.
It was only a few people in the group. I had to be there of course and so did Rose, Dimitri, Eddie, Abe and Janie. Christian volunteered and no one really knew why Adrian had come.
Everyone was arguing on how to stop Strigoi attacks.
"We have to fight them. We can't negotiate with them. They know Dimitri and Sonya aren't Strigoi any more so we can't trick them." Rose argued.
I felt a rush of guilt but I realized it wasn't me who felt guilty it was Adrian. He has been shutting me out of the bond during the whole meeting. I finally couldn't take it.
"Adrian, stop shutting me out. Its really annoying!" My voice tone wasn't very nice and people looked at me shocked. Sorry Jailbait. I didn't mean it. I shouldn't have said that or taken out my frustration on you. I hate hurting you, you don't deserve it.
"I'm shutting you out for a reason! Stay out of my head! I saved your life; you don't have the right to complain!" Adrian lashed out. I felt his regret and sadness.
There was a bit of silence then Adrian said…..
"What if we can negotiate with them? I know someone and she owes me. I can get her to talk to me."
Everyone looked confused.
"I'm going to Buio." Adrian smiled.
Christian's face froze. He then stood up and smirked.
"I'm coming with you."
"So you know where I'm going? You sure you want to come?" Adrian asked seriously.
"My parents were Strigoi its time to follow their footsteps." Christian smirked. There was something evil in Christian's eyes that freaked me out. I wasn't the only one who saw it.
"What the hell does that mean Christian? What the hell is Buio?" Lissa demanded. Christian immediately came and hugged her.
"Liss, I'm not going to become a monster. I'll always be here for you. Buio is Italian and means Darkness. It's a club for Strigoi only. I was joking because I know my parents have been there. I'm not my parents." Christian said softly.
"Wait so you two boys have known there's a place full of Strigoi. And you never bothered to tell any guardians?" Rose's mom questioned.
"There is a reason why it's still running. It has high security and there's too many Strigoi for any amount of Guardian's to kill. You wouldn't have a chance to make it through the door. I have been there tons of times but that's because I'm me." Adrian explained.
"I'm going to be allowed in because Analeigh. Christian because of his parent's good reputation among Strigoi. No one else is coming with us. No Guardians or family or friends, no one. End of discussion." Adrian with authority.
"This is our last chance. Let us go do this." Christian spoke.
"Okay" Said Abe.
Christian and Adrian changed then hugged everybody.
"Wait, is this girl a strigoi?" Asked Dimitri.
"Not exactly." Adrian smirked. Then he disappeared through the door.
