I do not own any of the characters that I use. Yet. Thank you to all of
those
who have reviewed. The more I get the faster I write. Special thanks to my
beta .Roza.4E. I also want to say that yes I do realize that
Lissa
isn't a big part of my stories. I will fix that soon-ish. And just to give
you guys an idea of how far along I am. I've already written the scene
where
Rose's heart gets broken. That's 11 pages away.
A week later my nose was almost completely healed (A/N: yes I know it takes
longer than that) I was back to participating in class and operation Mr.D
(Mason, Rose, Dimitri) was in full swing.
Apparently my favorite queen would be coming for a visit soon and Lissa had
found some huge dress sale at a mall near the academy. Due too some issues
with the court guardians the queen could only be here for a few hours. This
personally was fine with me. The real party would start as soon as she left.
I was sitting in studies of animal behavior when Mase asked me if I could
come to his dorm later that night. Through our bond I could already tell
that
Lissa was going to meet Christian tonight so I said sure. We were going to
meet at 8.
Four hours later I was getting ready to meet Mason. Lissa and I were both
getting dressed. She was so happy that I was getting to be my old self
again.
She even put me in the skimpiest outfit I own (without looking like a slut)
saying "I know it's your favorite."
I was wearing a faded black Rolling Stones halter top with some jean shorts.
The top didn't even reach my bellybutton. Lissa must have been really
happy.
I knocked on the door to Mason and Eddie's room. Mason opened the door
and
I swear he was drooling. "Keep your tongue in your mouth Ashford."
"Oh sorry Rose, I thought you wanted my tongue in your mouth." I
playfully punched
him in the shoulder and went into his room. I plopped myself right into
Mason's lap to watch TV. These frequent meetings had turned into a little
more than us watching TV though.
Lately it seemed that we spent more time making out, just begging to get
caught after curfew. It was a true show as to how crappy security was around
here that we never got caught. I would have hoped that our guardians weren't
that slack.
As I went to leave that night, I noticed that Dimitri would be coming down
this hallway at any second. I spun around and whispered in Mason's ear
"Showtime". Without hesitation he pulled me in for a kiss.
I felt my back press against the wall. Mason's lips were soft but
passionate at the same
time. I felt his lips open against mine. Oh my gosh. I would never get used
to kissing Mason. It was always amazing. Of course I didn't feel what I
would have with Dimitri, but what I did feel was enough of a sensory
overload
on its own.
Mason moved his hands from my shoulders to my waist. I could hear footsteps
coming and I knew Mason could too. He pressed the length of his body over
mine. Making me feel very, very hot. I moaned and moved my hands from his hair
to underneath his shirt, tracing his muscles.
His hands slipped under my shirt – all of a sudden Mason was yanked away
from me.
Without thinking I threw a roundabout kick towards his attacker. I felt my
foot collide with a larger body and heard an "Oof!" I looked down to
ready
myself to fight and what I saw scared the crap out of me.
There was a 6 foot 5; Russian god sprawled out on the floor of the hallway.
Crap. Dimitri had a furious expression on his face- wait a minute- I disabled
Dimitri! YES!
Finally! Wahoo! 2 points for Rose.
I stepped over to Mason and asked him if he was okay. I felt Dimitri grab my
arm and pull me away from Mason. "Gosh! Rough much?"
"You two do realize it's after hours, and females have separate dorms for
a reason?"
"Yes Guardian Belikov" we replied.
"Rose, come with me." Dimitri said. I kissed Mason on the cheek and
followed Dimitri. He sat on his bed and I went to sit across from him."
Rose, what are you doing?"
"Being the best person that you'll let me be" I replied.
"Roza-"he began in a stressed voice
"No! You can't call me that! I'm not your Roza anymore. I'm with
Mason now. I can't do this not now. I'm sorry you had to see us like that
but what did you expect. You can't control who I kiss. You don't have a
claim on something you don't want." I shielded my eyes and looked at the
ground.
I know it was a low blow. There was no doubt that Dimitri wanted me. I could
feel the hurt and guilt flowing from him. I would never forget his hurt
expression when he caught Mason and me. "Roz-" he tried again.
"I'm sorry for being out after hours guardian Belikov. It won't happen
again."
I turned to leave. As I shut the door I swear I heard a deep sigh from the
room. Looked like my plan was going perfectly
