Adrian POV
I sprayed some cologne on before leaving my cabin and stepping out into the snow. I stopped to ask a couple of dhampir girls if they knew which cabin Rose was in, they told me which room she was in and how she was alone and started snickering, I smiled lazily and they giggled and walked towards the ski lifts.
I knocked on the door lightly and ran a hand through my hair. Rose looked pissed when she opened the door, her hair was out of place.
"Hello beautiful" I grinned.
"What're you doing here?" she sighed.
"Was I interrupting something intimate?" I smirked.
"It's called sleeping, you shut your eyes, you lie in bed an-" she muttered.
"I can make a list of things we could do on a bed, Little Dhampir" I winked and she shook her head in disapproval, while mumbling something. I smiled at the memory of her sleeping on my couch, then I eyed her pjs.
"Can I come in?"
"No"
"Oh thanks for the invite, Little Dhampir" I chuckled and pushed past her and sat on the bed which I guessed was hers.
"What do you want, Ivashkov?" she sighed and pulled her laptop onto her lap.
"You, sweetheart" we made eye contact and she quickly looked away.
"Calling me sweetheart won't win me over" she laughed.
"That's 'cause you're more than that, babe"
"I seriously don't believe any of those rumours about how much of a womanizer you are" she rolled her eyes.
"Wanna find out?" I smirked and scooted closer to her side of the bed and kissed her neck tenderly. She didn't beat the crap out of me and that was a surprise, I pulled back and gave her a charming smile. I'm pretty sure her pulse quickened as her aura lit up.
I smiled, satisfied with myself. She grabbed a fistful of my shirt and pulled me towards her, I expected something hot to happen but instead I got this...
"Try that again and I won't be responsible for whatever happens to that pretty little face of yours" she whispered.
"So then you admit that I have a pretty face?" I turned to look her in the eye, our faces were inches apart and I could feel her warm breathe on my neck and then...
Rose POV
Right as he finished, Lissa walks in with Christian, catching us in the middle of something that looked a little too friendly.
"Rose, Adrian. A little cosy in here, aren't we?" Christian smirked.
"Don't" I pointed at him.
"So.. you and Adrian huh?" Lissa blushed and looked away.
"We're not...together" I made a face.
"I doubt they'll believe that after catching us in the middle of that, Little Dhampir" Adrian smiled lazily.
"Yeah, that was me whispering a threat to you" I grinned evilly. Thankfully they let it drop, well Lissa did, Christian told the whole gang, which Mason wasn't too pleased about, but who was he to tell me who and I can and can't talk to. Our stay at the mountain went by like a breeze. We took the bus back down to the lodge to stay for a couple more nights. I've been asked to go to some Moroi only, formal party. I wore a red strapless dress that clung to my curves which Lissa got for me back when we were out and about with the humans. It had a split on the right side that went up to my thigh and my boobs looked good in them.
Lissa wore a simple and elegant white strapless dress, she was still upset over Christian backing out on the last minute. My mind was still pondering on the dream I had which Adrian was in, it was peculiar. It seemed so real, plus it was annoying because I've had enough of Adrian while I'm conscious and having him in my dreams as well just makes me want to shoot him.
"Ready?" I reached for Lissa's hand, she nodded and took it. I can feel all the eyes on Lissa and me the minute we stepped into the room. I left her to mingle with the other Royals, I stood in the middle of the room, wondering what I should do. I took a glass of champagne from a waiter that walked by before someone's arm snaked around my waist.
"Adrian." I greeted monotonously, without looking.
"Little Dhampir, are you stalking me? Because this is a Moroi only party" he chuckled not trying to be offensive or anything, while he sipped his champagne. I ignored him and remembered something I had to ask him.
"Adrian?"
"Yes, darling?" he was smiling, waiting, it was like he anticipated this.
"You know how you have spirit, can you like go into people's drea-"
"Rosemarie Hathaway!"
"Mum?" I looked around the room.
"Excuse me, Lord Ivashkov" she said as she grabbed my wrist.
"Hey, let go" I squirmed.
"You're coming with me young lady"
"What the hell, why?" I fought back my little 5ft tall mother, people around us were now watching and looking between me, Adrian and my mum.
"What are you doing here?"
"Came as Lissa's escort since her date backed out" I smiled truimphly, she eyed my dress in disgust.
"What are you wearing? It shows all your curves off, why don't you just ask him to get his hands all over you?" I was shocked, not sure which part to be shocked at, whether my own mother thought I was a slut or the fact that she said my dress was so slutty that I should just ask Adrian Ivashkov to get his hands all over me.
"I second that" Adrian chuckled.
"You should leave immediately" my mother pointed to the exit. I glanced between her and the exit, I felt humiliated with all those people staring at me. For the first time in my life, someone had verbally made me want to cry.
"No, I'm staying with Lissa"
"And where is Vasilisa? She's obviously nowhere near you or Lord Ivashkov"
"There's nothing wrong with talking to him, I was just asking him something related to Moroi specialization. It's not like I'd get pregnant by standing next to him" I snapped, my mother was so furious that she looked like she was about to combust, because her face was red, whether it was embarrassment or anger, I don't know. Adrian choked on his drink and started laughing between coughs.
"I'll get Alberta to have a talk with you later" she eyed me before bowing respectfully to Adrian and leaving the party with her Moroi.
"Show's over" I growled at the people who were still staring at us.
"You alright, little Dhampir?" Adrian's face and tone became serious, he showed a compassionate side that I never knew he had.
"I'm gonna go" I sighed and put my glass down on a table before heading out the door. Footsteps followed behind me, which I assumed was Adrian's.
"Why are you following me, Adrian?"
"Roza..."
"Dimitri?"
"I came to apologize about the other day, I'm sorry for calling you a child" his aftershave hit me like a punch, but I've smelt something better over the past few days... Adrian. His scent was a mix of his own smell, alcohol and a spicy yet smoky scent.
"I forgive you, Comra-"
"Wait, I'm not done yet, I wanted to tell you that I took up Tasha's offer, we'll be living in St. Vladimir's, the Queen has considered having offensive magic classes in all Moroi/Dhampir boarding schools, after Lord Ivashkov's family was murdered and Tasha will be teaching that in the Academy"
"You... what?" A couple of things stood out and registered in my mind, "I took up Tasha's offer", "we'll be living in St. Vladimir's" and Tasha teaching in the academy. I took a few steps back and I ran into the darkness, Dimitri didn't follow after me.
Adrian POV
I followed Rose out of the party, after telling Lissa that she left because she wasn't feeling well, she didn't look too good from the looks of her aura, she was sad, surprised and also happy when I asked her if she was alright. I'd just witnessed the scene between Rose and Dimitri outside the party, her feelings were all over the place after he told her that he'd taken up Tasha's offer, whatever that was.
Rose ran off into the darkness, to her room I'm guessing. I stepped out of the darkness and glared at Belikov.
"Nice one, moron" I glared at his expressionless face.
"What's Tasha Ozera offering, that's better than my Little Dhampir? Wait, don't answer that." I shook the disturbing thought out of my head.
"I'm going to be her guardian, Rose can't accept the fact that we have feelings for one another, and Rose is not yours" so he's ditching Lissa and Rose for this Tasha, they'll probably further their relationship since they love each other and Rose is hurt, but this may be a chance for me to comfort her and show her what I'm capable of, I'll help her forget him.
"She's no longer yours either" I countered. "You had Rose and you just threw her away like that" I clicked my fingers. "What I'd give to have her" I shook my head in dismay and headed in the same direction Rose went. I searched the lobby all the way to her room to no avail, she was no where to be found. I went back to my room in disappointment, to find a figure slumping over at my door, crying.
"Rose..." I said almost inaudibly and she looked up at me and it felt like everything in the world froze.
End Of Chapter 7
Superchick - Stand In The Rain
She never slows down.
She doesn't know why but she knows that when she's all alone, feels like its all coming down
She won't turn around
The shadows are long and she fears if she cries that first tear, the tears will not stop raining down
So stand in the rain
Stand your ground
Stand up when it's all crashing down
You stand through the pain
You won't drown
And one day, whats lost can be found
You stand in the rain
