I stood in front of the mirror in our bedroom trying to fix my neck tie. I'd always hated wearing these and an occasion that I was required to rarely arose, however today was an exception. Today my incredibly intelligent and beautiful wife was graduating with honors from college.
It was rare for a Dhampir to attend any sort of schooling after they received their promise mark, but my Roza as usual was the exception to this rule and it seemed to every other rule. Her close personal relationship with her charge had allowed her to pursue her own degree and being the fierce and talented woman she was she came through it with flying colors. I was so very proud of everything she had accomplished over the years. It made me proud to call myself her mentor, but even more proud to call myself her husband.
We'd been married just under two years and yet it seemed as if it were yesterday that I stood on top of that bluff in Oahu pledging my heart to my one and only soul mate. Things since then seemed to fly by in a blur. We'd had our share of ups and downs like any other couple, but we always managed to patch things up before bedtime or sometimes during. I smiled as I thought about our last fight and how we'd made up.
She truly was the woman of my dreams. I couldn't wait to see her walk across that stage like I had just four years earlier at St. Vladimir's Academy. She was my everything and our love was so deep that sometimes I felt it would consume me. We've become even closer now as our bond grows.
There is an upside and a downside to being privy to most of your spouse's intimate thoughts, emotions and private moments. It can be a gift when we are making love and we can both feel the others emotions. I feel that it is times like that that build up our relationship. On the other hand being witness to each other's emotions and thoughts when we are having an argument is definitely a downside and has caused both of us some heartache over the years. We've learned to do our best to block one another out at times like those, however it isn't always the easiest thing to do when we are in the heat of the moment. It is also kind of a pain to be inside the mind of an at the time eighteen year old girl. I mean there's only so much a guy can take. Between her up and down emotions, her constant thoughts about sex, shopping and all the other crazy things teenage girls think about it had nearly driven me mad those first few months before I learned to block her out.
Tonight I could feel her excitement for herself and for Lissa. I could also feel a slight apprehension in the back of her mind. She would never admit to it, but she felt guilty for being in the spotlight. It had been ingrained in her head for so long that Dhampirs were only there to be slaves to the Moroi that she couldn't accept that she was allowed to have a life too.
I laughed because she was rushing around as usual looking for her shoes. Lissa was giving her a hard time about not ever being able to find things because she didn't ever put her stuff away. That was entirely true. She was utter chaos when it came to keeping house. It was one of the things I loved most about her. It was hysterical because one time I'd actually found her keys in the refrigerator. Yes that was my wife for you. Just when I thought I'd seen it all she always found a way to prove me wrong.
We met up with the usual crowd outside the University. It wouldn't be a night out if my Roza didn't threaten my life at least once. I had to laugh she was such a little badass with her tough girl attitude. I could tell on the inside though she was soft as ice cream on a ninety degree day. Most people who knew her well knew that her rough exterior was a façade and underneath she was a very kind good natured person. She just didn't like that getting around. After all she was Abe Mazur's daughter.
Abe and I had actually come to some sort of understanding. He knew I loved her and that I'd do everything in my power to keep her safe and I knew that he felt the same. Ivashkov on the other hand was a different story. Even though he was madly in love with my sister or so he claimed I was still extremely jealous of the special relationship he shared with my wife. She seemed at ease to talk at leisure about anything and everything with him. I knew that she didn't harbor any romantic feelings towards him, but I couldn't help not liking that he was around all the time. It irked me that he could enter her dreams at will and she didn't stop him. Hell she actually liked it. But as they say keep your friends close and your enemies closer so I made friends with him and discovered he'd not such a bad guy after all. We've had some good times out us guys me, Christian, Adrian and Eddie. I think it made Roza nervous that we hung out though. That gave me all the more pleasure in doing it knowing how much it tortured her.
The ceremony was the same generic one they do at most universities, but it still gave me a thrill as they called Rosemarie Belikova over the microphone. I knew Rose wasn't too happy about having to change her name, but she did it to please me. As far as being a Guardian came she would always be Guardian Hathaway, but in real life she was Mrs. Roza Belikova and I have to say that made me the luckiest man on earth and I was about to get even luckier.
I slipped into her head so she wouldn't see me watching her as she allowed Ivashkov to drink her Champagne. I smirked at my sweet little wife thinking she was being sneaky. Truth is I had figured out her little secret about two weeks ago. As much as she tried to be stealthy when sneaking out of bed she wasn't. I'd followed her the one day using my mad ninja skills and heard her getting sick. Sevral times she's been so ill that I've been sucked into her head while it was happening. My poor Roza. The smell of most of her favorite foods has been making her extremely nauseous. I knew that she was afraid that I'd ban her from leaving the house once she told me and she'd pretty much hit it right on the head. The last few times we've left the wards I'd had an extra Guardian tailing us just in case there was trouble tonight included. I didn't want her involved in any fighting.
It was actually quite amusing listening to her think up reasons not to spar with me. I'd bugged her about it more than normal just to see what she could come up with. I had to hand it to her she was pretty convincing. This morning as usual I was woken up as she quickly hopped out of bed and ran for the toilets. Last night we'd been ravenous in our love making. I'd come out of the shower and she was just standing there naked in front of the mirror. I couldn't help myself. If she thought that I hadn't noticed the not so subtle changes in her figure she was dead wrong. Her breasts were staring me right in the face they must have grown at least a whole cup size. I really shouldn't have taken her as roughly as I had, but she hadn't stopped me and we'd both thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.
I sighed to myself. Life could not get any more perfect. I was living in a dream house with my dream girl and tonight after our good friend was crowned Queen she was going to tell me that I was going to be a father. I couldn't wipe the smile off of my face for the rest of the day.
Leave me some love! Damn sneaky Russian! Can't pull the wool over his eyes can you?
