chapter two

'' Wake up we have to go to a meeting today remember .'' Lisa shook me awake .'' What meeting ?'' I yawned . '' The one where we are supposed to discuss the laws of dhampire and Moroi marriage .'' Lisa pulled my blanket away .'' Fine.'' I sighed and got up . It was my duty to go with Lisa to things like this plus I was partly her guardian I kept a eye out for danger and was the boss of the other guardians that she had .'' You do not even have to be apart of the discussion unless you want to .'' Lisa left my room as I started getting dressed . I put on the usual casual black guardian attire , Black skinny jeans black tank top and put my hair up in a messy bun .

When we got to the hall where the meeting would be held everyone was already seated and all the people from last night were there plus some of the people . I was prepared for there to be a lot of debating . But I do have to say I was surprised to see that Adrian was also there along with that Emily girl .'' Christian .''I sat down beside him .'' Any news for me ?'' I smiled at him .'' They left together last night .'' Christian ran his hand through her hair .'' oh.'' I sat down and couldn't help but look where Adrian and Emily sat together .

God they looked like they belonged together, a truly beautiful couple . '' We came here to discuss the marriage of dhampire and Moroi and Dhampire and Dhampire .'' Lisa said standing for everyone to hear her .'' Well I dont think that Moroi and dhampire should be allowed to marry .'' Nathan ivashkov said loudly Adrian who sat beside him flinched .

'' It is okay for Moroi and dhampir's to have children , but when they want to get married and have a pleasant life together that is just out of the question .'' Mikhail Tanner husband of said .I had to agree with him dhampires were allowed to mix and create other dhampires but not allowed to marry .

'' I do not think that dhampires need to get married at all .'' Emily said

If I did not like her before I hated her now .

Adrians pov

I did not even want to sit by Emily after what she said about dhampires not needing to get married period I was utterly repulsed by her words .But guess she was a average royal for you. '' I disagree .'' I stood up .'' Dhampires do everything for us undeserving Moroi they deseveto do whatever they please and marry whom ever they wont , we should not even be having this discussion ! it is like discussing weather we can take a piss in the morning ,pointless! At the end of the day not allowing dhampires to marry Moroi or just other dhampires does not matter , all that means is they will leave our community and create a new life somewhere else where they can be accepted .'' I breathed in heavily .'' Let's face it ,we need as many dhampires as we can use .''

I sat back down and the bickering began .'' Is that really how you feel about it ?" Emily asked me looking at her Aura she was angry because I did not have the same beliefs as her ,well to fucking bad .'' Sure do .'' I smiled and got up leaving her there .

There was no reason to stay now I got my point across it was there decision now . '' Adrian .'' I turned around to see Rose running after me .

Rose pov

I was surprised by Adrian outburst in the gathering ,I did not know he felt so strongly in the subject .I was surprised he was even there a few years ago Adrian wouldn't have come and if he had he would have sat there drunk which I have not seen from him yet . He did not seem like he was intoxicated in the slightest bit . So when he got up and left I ran out behind him .

'' Adrian .'' I ran behind him , He turned and looked at me looking a little surprised .'' yes ?'' He looked at me .'' I really like what you said back there .'' I shoved my hands in my pocket and looked down .'' It's just how I feel about the subject .'' he shrugged .'' My dad should be looking for me ready to kick my ass after the meeting is over .'' He laughed lightly .

'' Well he did always want you to be a part of politics .'' I looked up at him with a smile .'' talking to Adrian at first had seemed a little awkward but I relaxed when we got on comfortable ground .

'' come on .'' He said after looking down at me with a small smile . I usually would have asked where we were going but I had a good feeling about it so I stayed quite and followed him . He lead me up to the roof of the Hall , where I was surprised to see he had a easel and other art supplies all set up .

'' What's this .'' I walked over to his easel that he had a painting of court at night looking at the picture I never realized that the court could be so beautiful before I looked at his painting .How had I not realized that Adrian was so skilled and wonderful ?

'' Guess the painting you do of Lisa's baby will be wonderful .'' I looked back over at him with a smirk .'' How did you know that I know ?'' He busted into a grin .

'' I saw you notice it, you looked at Lisa and probably saw more that one aura .'' I shrugged and sat down on his chair he had set up and played with the brushes that he had out .

'' When is she going to announce it ?'' He came over and sat down on the cement next to easel and took the brushes from my hand his fingers brushed mine momentarily .he met my gaze and I looked down at my shoe rubbing pretend dirt away.

'' She is going to announce it in about a month after they get married .'' I smiled .'' About time , they are just two of those people you know are meant to be together . ''

'' sometimes you think people are meant to be together ,when there not .'' I looked out at the court . The highest and biggest building right in the center of court and you could see every little thing . I tried not to think about Dimitri .The wounds of it all were all so fresh for me , it hurt that I had believed in our relationship with my everything and gave it my everything but it still was not enough .

'' What is it that caused you guys to break-up ?'' Adrian asked pulling me from my thoughts .'' So many things .'' I sighed looking up trying to avoid tears, every time I tried to talk about it all I did was cry so all in all I decided to just not talk about Dimitri or the break-up .

'' Like what ?'' Adrian scooted so close that are knees were knocking together .

'' We never got to see each other , working on different schedules and when we did see each other we always argued over the littlest things sometimes we had some pretty serious fights, never physical but sometimes Dimitri would leave court for a few days and just get away . Then there was the fact the Dimitri wanted children and I could not give him one .'' My voice cracked as I talked .

'' I am sorry .'' Adrian grabbed my arm and pulled me down into a hug .'' I should not have said anything .''
