Chapter 4

The Shopping Trip

The ride to the mall was pretty uncomfortable, only because of the electric and slightly violent tension crackling between me and my 'Russian Jailer. 'He was the only man I'd ever met who I could create that kind of tension with. Thankfully the car ride only lasted a while, and after my last rendition of Katy Perry Peacock, we arrived and the Missoula Grand Mall.

Finally! I thought, as I jumped out of the car to stretch my legs. I breathed in the clean, crisp air, all the while ignoring Lissa's incessant chatter about 'Chanel this' and 'Prada that.' In the corner of my eye I saw Chris roll his eyes and mouth "What the Fuck is Gucci Limited Edition Platforms?" I burst out laughing, while everyone except Christian and Dimitri gave me weird looks.

"I'm ok!" I choked out, still giggling hysterically. When I was calm, we stepped into the mall. Then I was hit with

"ROSE! We have to go to Victoria's Secret first, then Forever21!"

I sighed "Let's go then Princess."

About an hour into the torture, God I hate shopping I thought, Dimitri appeared beside me "Are you enjoying yourself so far?" He murmured in his ridiculously sexy, husky accent.

"I enjoyed buying my dress." And that was the truth. My dress was amazing, even better than the lust charm dress. It was a figure hugging, long-sleeved, red dress that reached about mid thigh. It had triangular cut-outs on the stomach, back, arms and sides, ranging in size.

"Yeah, I'm pretty happy you bought that dress too. And I'll be even happier hen you wear it." Dimitri said in a husky voice. I could see the hunger swirling in his eyes for a moment, before his Guardian mask was back in place.

I was stunned that he'd actually said that, but I wasn't complaining. I flashed him my infamous man-eater smiles and said "Well I guess I'll have to model it for you then."

He chuckled deep in his throat, and the sound washed over me, sending tingles down my spine. After another excruciatingly painful 2 hours of DEATH BY DESIGNERS, we walked to the car, and I sent a VERY thankful prayer up to whoever up there was listening.
