Chapter 1: On second thought...

His body was warm and strong against mine, and I promised my own body a stern scolding later. Quit it, I thought. Focus on getting out of here, not how he feels.

"I'm not the one being unreasonable,' I growled, trying to turn my face toward him. "You're the one caught up in some noble promise that makes no sense. And I know you don't like to sit out of the action any more than I do. Help me. Help me find the murderer and do something useful.' I stopped struggling and pretended our argument had distracted me.

"I don't like sitting around, but I also don't like rushing into an impossible situation!'

"Impossible situations are our specialty,' I pointed out... Dimitri was too good to lose his focus. But I knew he was tired. And maybe, just maybe, he might be a little careless since it was me and not a Strigoi.

Nope. I lashed out abruptly, trying to break away and scramble out from under him. The best I managed to do was roll myself over before he had a hold of me again, now leaving me back-down on the bed. Being so close to him ... his face, his lips ... the warmth of his skin on mine. Well. It appeared that all I'd accomplished was putting myself at a greater disadvantage. He certainly didn't seem to be affected by our bodies' closeness. He wore that typical steel resolve of his, and even though it was stupid of me, even though I knew I shouldn't care anymore that he was over me ... well, I did care.

"One day,' he said. "You can't even wait one day?'

I wanted to keep arguing to get out of here, but the words of the note came to me again another Dragomir lives. If I couldn't get what I want then I'll have to drag them into another type of search as long as they keep me out of trouble. Making deals with them? This will be very intriguing.

"Fine! ONE DAY! then I leave" I I said while trying to hold back the urge to bolt out of this place.

Dimitri stood up and leaned against the wall. As I was sitting up he kept staring at me as if I was about to leave.

" I'm taking a shower see if I can make this night pass faster." I muttered.

Just as the adrenaline was fading I finally started to feel more exhausted. When I got up I saw how he tensed up. I rolled my eyes at him and gave him the Hathaway glare. which apparently didn't faze him.

"What's the catch?" he finally asked as I was heading for the shower.

" No catch yet but seeing as you don't believe me." I said while I took off my Nazar eye and got only my bathroom stuff.

"Will this be enough for you to trust me that I won't run away?" I asked him.

He walk towards me and took my necklace from my hand. He looked at it and then he looked at me, and that idiot he gave me a cheeky smile. " I believed you ,but now I know for sure that you won't escape" he said. That Idiot!

That earned him another Hathaway glare. Which only caused him to laugh,and when I slammed the door at his face he laughed even more.

Only when the door was between us I allowed myself to smile at the fact that he was laughing.

It was hard to make him at least smile but now I have made him laugh.
