I awoke to feel of Dimitri's beating heart. I was pressed up into his warm chest with his strong arms encircling me like a protective circle. Glancing up, I saw a peaceful look on his face with a hint of one of his rare smiles. Even sleeping he looked like the sexy god he was, my sexy god. I studied every detail of his face for what could have been seconds or an eternity before looking down at my bedside clock. 7:28! Shit I cursed internally. Then my restless night all came tumbling back and I let out a tired groan. My whole night had been spent tossing and turning from the never-ending nightmares of my days when Dimitri had captured me as a strigoi, and I felt like crap. Every night these nightmares would return to haunt me. I glimpsed back up at Dimitri as if to prove to myself that it truly was him. Yep, pale (but not white) skin and all; I couldn't help but grin foolishly, the love of my life, back for good I hoped. But then I remembered the time again. Dimitri had been working overnight so barely stirred when I eased out of his grip. Ripping off one of Dimitri's tops which I'd slept in, I hurriedly pulled on my guardian outfit which was in desperate need of ironing. Oh well, it could wait another day. I had been late to work every day for almost a week, great guardian I am! Please Liss forgive me, she would anyway knowing her. She was always way too nice and forgiving to me. I didn't bother with my makeup anymore, everyone saw me by my badass reputation, my looks wouldn't affect how people looked up at me. Turning, I ran out of the door whilst adjusting my hair in a quick bun but doubled back to rest a light kiss on Dimitri's forehead and grab a chocolate glazed doughnut from the table top. Dimitri mumbled something inaudible, probably in Russian (which he still hadn't taught me) and his smile grew yet he was still fast asleep.
Jogging to the royal palace where Lissa lived as queen, I shoved the doughnut quickly down my throat, god it was so good. Passing Adrian on the way, I smiled and slowed considerably. "Hey Adrian", I shouted slightly short of breath. He looked at me for a split second then turned away sourly. "Hello little dhampir." I growled in frustration; although I continued my efforts to get back on good terms with Adrian after the break-up – he refused every attempt. Why was he so stubborn?! Yes, I couldn't say sorry enough times or believe that Adrian would ever completely forgive but couldn't he at least move on and leave it behind us? "Can't even move on already", I stated bitterly. I still surprised myself how drastically my mood changed with the smallest things. I had spoken quietly but made sure that I was loud enough for Adrian to hear. Obviously he replied in kind and much louder. "Can't even stop to say a proper hello", he completed it with a sarcastic laugh. "I'm late for work Adrian". I could have said much harsher things about how he wouldn't know about that since oh, he's never worked a day in his spoilt life yet refrained. "As per usual it seems, fabulous guardian little dhampir!" he smirked as I started to continue my jog. Now that hit a nerve! Why was he completely utterly correct, no matter what else was happening in the background of the truth, it didn't change it. Adrian knew he had slightly stepped the mark and bit his lip in slight regret, however, I still didn't want him to see how deep that remark cut me. "The best Adrian, the best!" God he had pissed me off, great.
Once I reached the palace grounds I spotted Lissa immediately. She was stood talking very animated to Nathan Ivashkov. He was a man big on his pride and royal name, liking to boast about his riches and heritage like most royals, and after Daniella was framed and charged for plotting against Queen Tatiana, he lived ashamed and embarrassed. He certainly didn't seem like a big man here as he cowered beneath Lissa's glare. I smiled slightly at the strange sight of him backing away from a petite, teenage girl before tuning in to their conversation whilst strolling over.
"… I feel there are others who are much more qualified to the job then yourself and I am afraid you have no choice but to back down from the position, is that clear?"
"Vasilissa, I was Queen Tatiana's first choice and she never complained about how I delivered my speeches, I don't see how anything has changed since that. You have to admit that you are still young and learning, maybe this is best left to the adults …"
"How dare you Ivashkov!" Lissa's temper was slipping and Nathan flinched beneath that killer glare she rarely delivered.
"I meant no disrespect, just to say…" He never finished his grovel, Lissa delivered that fatal blow.
"You are dismissed Ivashkov!" She growled, daring Nathan to say another word …
I zoned back into my own mind, hell yes that is how Nathan needed to be put back in to his place! I silently whooped and strode to the pair before Nathan could make his timid exit. I slung my arm lazily over Lissa's shoulders and smiled. "Is there a problem here Ivashkov." I spat his last name. Poor poor Nathan being looked down upon by dhamipir's, that hurts mate I thought with great pleasure. He flinched, yep I could hand him his butt in a second and he knew it. "No problem here Guardian Hathaway, the Queen and I were just finishing up," Nathan replied, spinning round almost as quick as I could and marched away, putting as much distance between me and him as he could. Liss turned and I pulled her into a gentle hug. "Sorry I'm late Liss, you really should punish me." I admitted. Lissa just looked at me with a sympathetic frown, "yh, with a day off, you look exhausted!"
"Don't worry about me Liss; you won't stop me from carrying out my duty." She smiled sadly as I strode to where another of her guardians stood to find out the plan.
"Rose Hathaway" I introduced to the guardian watching me with studious eyes. Lissa now had so many guardians that I still hadn't met them all and this was one who I had failed to see before. "Zac Jackson", he replied in kind with a lopsided smile. God, that smile looked so much like Mason's, dear Mason I thought sadly. Cool name though. If I wasn't completely, 200% devoted and loyal to Dimitri I would have turned on my flirty side but I was so I didn't. Zac was obviously, heart-breakingly cute; he had wavy blonde hair with natural hazel highlights. His eyes were a startling, electric blue and he was clearly very muscular. His nose was positioned on a slight angle so had clearly been broken badly before but how many guardians hadn't broken their nose honestly? Plus, he looked roughly the same age as myself meaning he can't have attended St Vladimir's. I noticed him looking me up and down just like I was with him, all of our studies happened within a second and I didn't want them to last since the longer we interacted, the longer Lissa had two less guardians.
"So, who's where?"
there you go guys! How was it? please review! i hope it is okay and i should have the next chapter out soon :-)
