Hey everyone, I'm back!

Okay, so this time, I've decided to go back to orignal story line of the Vampire Academy, so this story is set right after The Last Sacrifice (Not my version, but the actually book itself).

Anyway, it's basically about what the summary suggested, someone is out for revenge and they won't rest until they've got it. You may think you know who, but let me tell you this, once the truth is revealed, you will be shocked. So don't believe the obvious, or do... either way, this mystery will keep you guessing.

Also, I've got a poll on my profile and I would really appreciate it if you could all answer it for me!

Anyway, enjoy the first chapter! (Disclaimer: I do not own Vampire Academy)

Vampire Academy: Sweet Revenge

Chapter One

OUT OF ALL THE THINGS I could have been doing with my free time, I was stuck helping Lissa get ready for an important dinner she was hosting tonight.

"Lissa, relax. You'll do fine, okay?" I said, leading her over to one of her luxurious couches. She took a deep breath as we both sunk into the comfort of the cushions.

"It's just, this is my first dinner as the Queen, and I want to make a good first impression," she said as she played with the neck of her beautiful, jade-green dress. It was strapless, and flowed to the ground in an elegant way that flattered her slim figure. Her dress was accompanied by a gorgeous diamond necklace and a tiara loaded with more diamonds. I really hoped the expression: diamonds are a girl's best friend, was wrong, otherwise I would find myself out of the job.

"Lissa, you'll be fine. Besides, you'll have me and Christian there for support."

Lissa rolled her eyes at this.

"You'll be on Guardian duty, so I won't be able to talk to you. As for Christian... Well, you know how he's been."

I nodded, knowing exactly what she meant. Ever since Tasha had been locked away, Christian had been distant and moody. Lissa was trying to be supportive, but she was struggling. And all the Royal Moroi weren't exactly happy that she was dating someone who was related to the person responsible for Tatiana's death. Lissa mostly ignored them, but it was hard trying to be a good Queen when other people were constantly judging you.

Out of habit, I tried to reach into Lissa's mind to see how she was really feeling, and then sighed when I realised that the bond was gone.

"It's weird not having the bond anymore," I said, changing the subject.

"Well, it's probably stranger for you than it is for me, as I'm not the one who could read your mind. But I still feels... weird, as if something's missing, which I guess there is."

It did feel strange. But the worst thing was that without me there to help control Lissa's side affects to Spirit, she was having to try and deal with it on her own. Which wasn't easy with her being Queen and all. So Lissa was now back on anti-depressants.

"Are the pills working?" I asked.

Lissa nodded, but a look of regret swept across her face.

"Yeah, I can't touch the magic, and I know that's a good thing..."

"But you don't like being cut off from it," I finished for her.

She gave me a sad smile.

"Yeah, that about sums it up," she sighed, standing to her feet. "Anyway, you better get going so that you can get changed and be back here in time to Guard me."

I was hesitant, not wanting to leave her alone while she was feeling stressed. "Go on, I'll be fine," she said, coaxing me into hopping up from the couch.

"Okay, but I'll be back soon," I said as I headed towards the front door.

I was an inch away from the entrance when my foot made contact with something other than Lissa's carpet.

It was a note.

I turned around to let Lissa know what I'd found, but she was no longer there. She must have gone to the bathroom or something. Curiously, I picked it up and unfolded it. Okay, so I know that I shouldn't be reading other peoples notes, but it was weird that someone had slid it under her door in the first place.

The piece of paper was folded three times, and when I managed to straighten it out, I realised that this wasn't just any regular note. It wasn't typed or hand written, instead someone had cut up some magazine letters and had stuck them down to form the sentence:

WATCH YOUR BACK.

No, this wasn't a note at all. It was a threat.

I had no idea what to do about the note. It was most likely just a prank of some sort, but what if it wasn't? I knew I had to do something about it, but the big question was, do I tell Lissa? She was stressed enough as it was, and if she were to find out that someone may- and I emphasise on the may- be out to get her, that would probably send her over the edge. And with me not being able to take the darkness away from her anymore, that was something that I wanted to avoid at all costs. But this wasn't a decision I wanted to make on my own, so after I had made sure that the Queen's quarters were completely secured, I took a small detour to Dimitri's apartment.

"Hey Comrade," I said as Dimitri opened his door.

He was, of course, already in his Guardian uniform and ready for the dinner, unlike myself.

"Rose, why aren't you ready?" he asked as he let me inside.

"Cause I needed to talk to you about something. Something that couldn't wait."

Dimitri leaned against his kitchen counter, his eyes searching my face, trying to figure out what was wrong. When he didn't speak again, I took that as my cue to start talking.

"When I was leaving Lissa's house, I found this note," I said whilst handing it over to him. "It had been slid under her door. And well, as you can see, it's not very friendly."

I watched as his eyes raked across the note intently, the only sign of emotion was shown in the tightness in his eyebrows. Once he was done with it, he folded it back up and handed it back to me.

"Does Lissa know about this?"

I shook my head.

"No, and I don't think I should tell her, just in case it turns out to be some stupid, sick prank."

Dimitri nodded in agreement.

"That might be best for now. I'll get everyone in the Royal Guard to keep an extra eye on her though, and maybe ask for a couple of more Guardians to watch over her while we look into the note more thoroughly."

"Do you think Jill should get some extra protection too?" I asked.

Jill had been lying low, keeping out of sight from the public eye ever since the Moroi world had found out that she was Lissa's half sister. I felt bad for her. I knew it would have to be tough to be thrown into the middle of this, but Jill was strong, and I knew she would be able to handle it. But if someone was really after Lissa, then Jill could be at risk as well.

Dimitri thought for a moment before answering.

"I don't know if extra protection for Jill is necessary at this point, but I'll talk to her Guardians and ask them to be extra vigilant."

I nodded while placing the note cautiously back into my pocket, and then looked back to try and study his face.

"Do you think it's anything serious to worry about?" I asked.

I watched him as he considered this, and then he just shrugged.

"I don't know Roza; we'll just have to see how this all unfolds. But the one thing I don't get is how the person with the note was able to get past the Guardians without being seen."

I had considered this to, but the only thing I could come up with was compulsion. I shared my theory with Dimitri. "That's probably how they did it, but it seems like a lot of trouble for someone to go through just to deliver a threat, and a measly one at that." I couldn't help but agree with Dimitri.

We then discussed what actions we would take, agreeing that we would inform our superiors and talk to the Guardians on duty at the time I found the note to see if they had compulsion used on them. But other than that, we couldn't do anything else.

"So for now, we just keep a close eye on Lissa and wait to see what happens?"

He nodded in confirmation, and I sighed. Seeing this, Dimitri walked over and tilted my face so that my eyes met his own.

"What's wrong?" He asked.

I knew that none of this was funny, but I couldn't help but smile.

"I hate waiting, you know that."

He chuckled and brought his face closer to mine.

"Yes, I do know that. You've also got the worst self control I've ever seen."

This was true, so rather than deny it, I wrapped my arms around his neck and whispered in his ear, "But that's not such a bad thing, is it?" I heard his breath catch in his throat, and then felt his warm, strong hands start to run through my hair. Our lips met as I tried to get as close to him as possible. I wrapped my legs around his waist as he lifted me up onto the counter so that I matched his height. I wasted no time in ripping off his shirt, and it was only when we were almost completely naked that we noticed that we were supposed to be somewhere.

We both swore and started- regretfully- putting our clothes back on.

"Stupid, royal dinner," I mumbled under my breath.

I still wasn't dressed in my Guardian uniform, so with one last quick kiss, I left Dimitri and hurried back to my own room.

I knew I was going to be late and that Lissa was going to be pissed at me, but spending those amazing few moments with Dimitri- as short as they were- was totally worth it.

So that's the end of the chapter!
