Hey so did you like my last chapter. Here's another chapter, picking up two months after the last one. Hope you like it XxXx Sazza XxXx
We were all gathered in my room. Lissa had just been crowned Queen, and we were thinking of ways to keep her safe. Obviously she has guardians, but guardians are not resistant to compulsion so we thought it best to have loads of her friends guarding her too. Dimitri smiled at me from behind Lissa.
Rose, PAY ATTENTION!
HUH? Lissa? How did you do that?
I have been practicing, if you had been listening you would have known
Sorry Liss
I know Rose, you are just sooo in lurrrvvve
Shut up Liss
We burst out laughing. Christian looked at us "God I am going out with a weirdo, way to ruin my rep!"
I laughed at him, "What you mean your non-existent rep?"
"Rose" He said
"Yep?"
"GO TO HELL!"
"Pyro boy, you rule hell, so no!"
Christian turned away shaking his head. Lissa looked at him laughing.
"What?" Christian said indignantly. Lissa was in hysterics by this time.
Liss?
Sorry Rose, just, you know, I think you're right there!
Huh?
At him ruling hell, I mean look at his face.
No I think my face would BREAK!
We both laughed out loud and I said "A face only Lissa could love!"
The others were looking at us like we were freaks.
Dimitri spoke up then "Rose, we really need to get planning."
Oh yeh I had forgotten about that. I looked up at him and was caught by how stunningly handsome he was. Hid Chocolate brown eyes shone with hidden amusement, His hair was tied in a pony tail at the nape of his neck and he was wearing guardian uniform, to me he had never been so beautiful. He kept looking down at me until Adrian snapped
"Rose, we do have some vital issues going on here" I looked at him, he was glowering, obviously not happy about Dimitri and I. So I replied with as much venom in my voice as possible,
"Yeah, figuring out how we can all survive without killing you. I was thinking, dump you and the rest of us look after her, then we won't have as much annoyingness or drunkenness on the team. That sound god to you?" He just glared at me but I could see the others smiling. I glanced at the clock and saw it was getting late.
Dimitri looked too and suggested that we continue the meeting tomorrow. Everyone agreed and went back to their bedrooms in the court, except Dimitri. He stayed and I fell asleep once more listening to his heart beat.
DPOV
Looking down at Rose as she slept, I couldn't believe all the things I had done to her, and now she trusted me enough to fall asleep with me holding her? I looked down at her, with her brown hair flowing freely down her back and her almond shape eyes closed lightly in sleep, and I felt peace, peace and... Hunger. No more like thirst. THIRST FOR HER BLOOD! But no I could never do that to her. What was HAPPENING to me? I couldn't thirst for her blood; I wasn't a moroi or a strigoi! Oh, I had been a strigoi though, and no one knew exactly what had happened when I had changed back to a dhampir. The only other person who had been a strigoi and been changed back to dhampir was a guy called Robert who was Victor Dashkov's brother. He never fully told us, well them, the consequences of pulling my soul back to my body and turning me back to a dhampir. Could it be that I would lust for blood?
Her throat was in a good position to bite and before I realised what I was doing I was leaning towards her, when I realised what I was doing I snapped back. How could I even consider hurting Rose! I knew I would have to try and talk to Victor about this. But alone I would never let Rose hear of this. Ever. She deserved a bit of peace and calm in her life. But now I could hear the blood pulsing around her body and I could smell it too. It smelt so good, and I leant down and sank my teeth in to her neck.
RPOV.
I had just gotten to sleep when Adrian pulled me into a dream
"Hey little Dhampir" He said.
"Hey Adrian" I said smiling, he had me in a completely outrageous outfit, a red dress that finished midway down my thighs and some black high heeled sandals. You have to admit, I thought, the boy's got style. He was just about to say something else when I felt the harshest pain in my neck and was pulled out of the dream to wake up gasping.
The pain was too much. I started to scream but didn't have the strength; I was casting my mind about wondering, WHAT ON EARTH WAS HAPPENING? When I realised, someone was drinking my blood, and that someone was Dimitri. But what! How? He wasn't Moroi or Strigoi, and they had endorphins to stop the pain and this hurt, it hurt like HELL. I lost consciousness then, glad to drift into the dark, to get away from the pain.
DPOV.
I KNEW WHEN Rose woke up. She started struggling, and I wanted to hold her close tell her it was ok, but I just couldn't stop drinking, her blood was intoxicating, it was all my favourite flavours combined into one. I couldn't stop I felt her body go limp and I knew I was taking too much but I couldn't stop I had no choice. But I fought to regain control of my body and stopped drinking from her. I looked down at the girl in my arms and she looks so pale, I felt for her pulse and it was the weakest I had ever felt. She was close to death, if I had taken one drop more, she probably would be dead.
How could I be so stupid? How could I think it was ok to drink from the one person who was always there for me? I heard her draw in one rattling breath and I knew she was dying I had to get help!
I ran to my phone which was on the dresser. I looked through my contacts and called Lissa.
"Huh, why are you calling this late on Dimitri?" She asked sleepily.
"Lissa" I said shakily, "I have done something terrible, and you have to come help me!"
She gasped at my voice, I knew she was thinking, but he never loses control this much! What has he done to make him lose this much control. "I'm coming, where are you?"
"Roses bedroom" I replied before hanging up. I sat down on the bed next to Roses still body and thought about what I had done, I had betrayed the trust of the one person I truly loved and nearly killed them. I hated myself now and no one could ever tell me that what I did was ok.
Two minutes after I had called her, Lissa arrived knocking on the door. I went to the door and let her in. She immediately looked in and gasped.
"What happened to Rose, what's wrong with her?" She asked hurriedly.
I looked up at her, "Lissa, when you brought me back, I don't think I'm fully dhampir anymore, I did that to her, I drank her blood, and I NEARLY KILLED HER!" I said before collapsing in tears.
"Oh My God" Was all Lissa could manage.
I stopped crying after a minute and said, "Lissa she's dying, can you help her?"
Lissa went to her and said, "I think I can, but she will have to rest for a while" She put her hand just above roses neck, not touching her, and I saw her magic do its work, Roses neck healed up and she began to get a bit more colour in her cheeks. Her breathing steadied out and she looked just healthy in general. When Lissa was finished, no one else was ever going to be able to tell what had happened, Lissa and I were the only ones who knew of the atrocity I had committed. I wanted to keep it that way but I would also never forget what I had done, how she looked, the feeling of being her death. Lissa got up and walked over to me and said, "Someone should probably stay with her, but I can't, are you up to it Dimitri?" I looked at her. "Yes" I said. She opened the door and left. I went back to the bed and laid down beside Rose, the hunger was gone, for now at least. As I turned on my side to look at her, she opened her eyes, and screamed when she saw me.
