Fair warning! I rated this M for a reason! No it is not lemon, it's smut.
Well, yeah, life was unfair at times. But really? I got over it immediately when I saw Dimitri. A couple years ago, if someone told me I would be madly in love with the foreign guy who was chosen to be Lissa's Guardian and was going to mentor me because I had run away from the academy, I would've told them they were crazy. It was kind of funny. People always said he was a god. He was a god in many ways, in fighting strigoi, and in bed.
He was shirtless and asleep, I think. His back was facing me and he seemed to be peaceful so I assumed he was sleeping. I took this as an opportunity to quickly strip, revealing my black lingerie. I unclipped my hair and let it fall behind my shoulders as I quietly climbed into the bed and creeped up behind him. I spent about 15 minutes admiring him, his built body and beautiful shoulder-length hair. He smelt like aftershave, the same one he used everytime. It still blew me away. I then slid my arms around him and wrapped a leg around him, fully embracing him and planting a sloppy kiss on his neck.
He woke up, but I didn't notice until he quickly turned over and briefly pressed him lips against mine. He pulled back. "Roza.." he mumbled. "What do you want?" He gazed at me with those eyes that had so much intensity I felt as though my heart would stop. "To take my mind off things.." I said seductively as I ran my fingers across his chest. I could see lust in his eyes but he had much more self control than me. "We can't. We're here on a mission." He said bluntly, playing with a lock of my hair. "Can't we have a little fun?" I breathed, our faces only centimeters apart. No matter how official we were, I was always crazy about him. Even when our lips were so close, it still had that same strong feeling as it did that night in the cabin.
After a few moments of silence, he finally cracked. Our lips crushed together with a force that took my breath away. One hand was pushing back my hair and the other clutching my thigh. I felt breathless as we kissed hungrily and he climbed on top of me, kissing my neck down to my collarbone. I moaned softly, careful not to be loud. He unhooked my bra and then kissed my neck again before he met my lips with passion, flinging the bra across the room. Our tongues locked and he snaked an arm around my waist to pull me closer. Our bodies were entertwined and I ran my fingers through his hair, wrapping my legs around him. I pushed him against the bed, kissing his jawline down to his neck. He grunted, and I kissed with more force, continuing to pin him down on the bed. I kissed down to his v-line, and I could hear him take a breath in anticipation. I then got up and sat on top of him, giving him a sly smile.
He was breathing heavily. "You're right, comrade." I said after taking a few breaths. "We can't. We mustn't compromise our mission." I layed back down and there was disappointment written all over his face. I couldn't help but laugh. He laughed too, lifting me up on top of him. Our noses and foreheads touched and our bodies were glued to eachother as he gripped me by my ass. "You devastate me," he said before we kissed, and kept kissing for a couple of minutes that seemed to go by so quick. I leaned next to his ear and whispered, "You have no idea how badly I want you to make me scream right now." "Mmm.. maybe another day, Roza" he said before leaving a trail of kisses down my neck.
I looked at him with a sad face, and it wasnt because we couldn't have sex. "What's wrong?" he asked, his eyes full of lust transforming to concern. "The mission.." I said, my wrods dragging off as I thought of horrible scenarios. My mood immediately plummeted. "Tell me what's wrong." he demanded. "The last time we had a situation like this, it was back in the academy." I said, sadness in my voice. His concern was now mixed with grief, remembering when he was dragged away that night, forcibly turned Strigoi. "What if..." I paused, choking on my own air. I tried again. "What if something bad happens?" Tears began to well up in my eyes as I remembered what had happened. How scattered I'd been when Mason had told me he was a Strigoi. I never wanted that, ever again. He held me close to his chest and stroked my hair, whispering, "We will get through this, I promise you. I won't let anything happen to you, Roza." And then I felt safe, I fell asleep there, on his chest.
But it wasn't for a while. I woke up with Dimitri shaking me, and lots of commotion outside. "Rose, rose.." he kept saying. "Wake up, there's been an attack. We have to go now." I immediately threw off the covers and got dressed, pulling my hair up as we walked out the door. I heard someone shouting from the side. "The attack was in the west border of Chicago! Everyone load the SUV's and block them from all directions!" In a flash, we were on the road. Directions were being given to all cars from a few who stayed at the headquarters. Beautiful buildings passed by us, and I was envious of couples who were able to go to restaraunts and do things without having to worry about evil vampires attacking them. Dimitri obviously saw my envy, and he traced the edge of my cheekbone with this finger. "Another day." he said simply, and I redirected my attention back to the mission.
We finally arrived, and we were careful not to make any kind of noise. The darkness encircled us, but most of us could see clearly. The rest managed. One group was sizing the building, some roaming around the outskirts. After rendering it clear, we counted to 3 before busting in the door and windows with all groups. Sure enough, there they were. There were a couple of dhampirs and humans weilding weapons like knives and guns. We could hear screaming from the top. No hesitation was allowed, and we immediately plunged into war. I bolted upstairs to fight the bigger threat, as some magic users and other guardians fought off and captured the dhampirs and humans. When I reached the second floor, I felt like throwing up. There were so many bodies scattered on the floor, blood everywhere. I held my hand against my mouth and blinked back tears. I couldn't take the sight anymore and I ran downstairs.
The dhampirs and humans were tied up, sitting on the floor with savage looks in their faces. Dimitri was among those who were interrogating them. "Where are the Strigoi?" one of them yelled. A dhampir girl replied with hysteric laughter before answering, "As if we'd tell you." "Fucking puppets." another guy sneered. "I said, where are they!" the guardian demanded again. "Why do you care so much?" A quiet voice came from near by. It was a human girl. "You do realize that they're only using you, right?" It was Dimitri who spoke this time. "They're ready to throw away your life any second without thinking twice." There was intensity to his voice, something you couldn't ignore. "They'll never give you what you want." "B-but.." the human girl stuttered. "They went in the direction of the forest. There's a few cabins there where they were going to take refuge in until tomorrow night." A human guy said. He was obviously conflicted saying this, but he was brave.
And off we went to go catch the culprit.
