I Am A Vampire

Chapter 9 :

Dimitri's POV :

I woke up late the next morning, it was almost noon. I didn't mind but what bothered me was the bed being empty aside from me. I thought it was a dream. All the events and the confessions but that idea disappeared once I saw the blood in my shirt. Her blood.

It was real. It was all real. She loved me. I loved her. And even though we'd a lot to figure out but I was sure it'd be fine.

I left the bed lazily to the bathroom, had a shower and changed to some clean white t-shirt and knee-length khaki shorts.

I was standing in front of the mirror drying my now shoulder-length hair using a small towel. It was long before I met Rose but it never was that long. I was putting it in a ponytail when the door was knocked on twice.

"C'mon in." I called hoping it was the woman I declared my love for hours ago.

"Oh, you're awake." To my disappointment it was Sage. Well, next better thing. He could tell me where was she.

I turned and nodded. "Yeah." I said putting the hair brush down and walked to him.

"How do you feel?!" He asked scanning me. I wasn't sure why he was doing that till he said. "You lost some blood Ze took from you earlier."

I nodded. "I feel better." I said with a small smile when a knock was heard.

"C'mon in." Sage said and one of the servants came in with a big tray of breakfast.

"What's that?!" I asked looking between the two persons in front of me.

"You need to eat something before you leave your room. I don't want you to faint or collapse." He said gesturing to the servant whom put the tray on a coffee table and left silently.

I looked at him looking for the reason of his motive but I didn't find anything. "Are you going to look at me like that for the whole day or are you going to eat?!" He asked with a smile before sitting on an armchair.

"I was going to see Roza." I said simply without changing my spot.

"Oh, you'll see her. Just eat first." He said with a nod.

I sighed and nodded. "Fine." I said and walked to the tray. A lot of food was filling the plates. "Where's she?!"

"Recovering." He said mysteriously.

"What's that supposed to mean?!" I asked looking at him. "You know I hate your mysterious way of speaking."

He chuckled and nodded. "I know, I hate it too sometimes. Just don't worry. Have a bite, my friend."

I understood that he was working according to Roza's orders. Or at least that was the reason of all the former times he spoke that way. I sat on the armchair next to the coffee table and looked at him taking a cup of coffee.

"I'm not going to eat alone." I warned him and he chuckled.

"Sure, I'll have a bite or two." He said before taking a piece of waffle.

"What happened since last night?!" I asked curious about the fate of the bodies and if there was other vampires around in the island.

"Everything is fine. Adrian scanned everything while we were taking care of Ze. He was managing everything till Ze was feeling well enough to help him." He said.

"So no more vampires?!" I asked with a smile.

He chuckled. "Just the two vampires we already know."

I finished eating very much so fast and jumped to my feet. Sage whom was looking through the window turned to me questioningly. "Why are you looking at me like that?!" I asked as I found my way to the door.

"Where are you going?!" He asked.

"To see Roza." I said with a shrug and left the room hearing his footsteps behind me.

"Why are you so in a hurry?!" He asked following me.

"And why are you so into keeping me away?!" I asked annoyed.

He shrugged. "No reason, I just wanted to see how much you want to see her." He said with a smile and I wanted to punch him hard.

"Liar." I said looking into his eyes.

"Ze said she needed sometimes with Adrian to fix things." He said honestly. "They've a lot to do, Dimitri."

"Why don't you leave somewhere. A place where I can't punch you." I threatened him.

He laughed before walking away. "Fine. Whatever. Ze is in the library, if you want to see her." And he disappeared behind a turn.

I sighed, shook my head and walked to the library I once passed by. I figured it was Ze's favorite place for her to stay all that time there. Sage told me several times about her being there.

The door was ajar and some noise was coming out through it. I recognized Roza's giggle. "Stop teasing me, Adrian."

He sounded offended when he answered. "Whose teasing you?! I'm just saying that after all of these decades of rejecting my offers of dating, you went too easily to fall in love with a human guy."

"May I remind you that we were humans one day, besides, it was never easy." She said with a sigh.

"It was a very long time ago. I almost forgot how it was to be a human." He said then chuckled. "I don't know how you ever remember it. You were sick most of the time."

She snorted. "That's part of the deal. A lot of things to think about while you're tied to your bed all the day."

"A lot to write." He commented sarcastically before asking. "What about him?!"

She sighed. "We didn't talk yet, Adrian. Being able to sense things from others' minds doesn't mean they already figured it out."

"But you're together, right?!" He asked.

She sighed before saying. "If he wants to be with me. I'm not going to force him into something he doesn't want it or chooses it. I already did a lot to hurt him. I just hope I can make up for what I did to him. It's such an amazing luck, a miracle, to be loved by him."

"Do you think it's him?!" He asked. "For you?!"

"I know it's him. But is it me for him?! I've no idea."

Okay, I was so sick to do such a thing so I knocked on the door feeling ashamed of eavesdropping like that. I never learnt. I knew.

"C'mon in." Roza's graceful voice came to my hearing.

I pushed the door and entered the library looking for her amazing brown eyes. "Good afternoon." I said.

"Good afternoon." The two of them answered.

Roza stood on her feet and walked towards me. I couldn't help the smile that invaded my lips. I held my hand out for her and she took it. I felt a lot of happiness and the admiration filled me as I scanned her amazing body wrapped in an amazing floor-length white sleeveless dress. Like an angel from heaven her hair was loose around her beautiful face and the fabric was hugging her at the right places.

The open wounds separated on her body were nowhere to be seen. Except for some small scratches marking the places of the bigger injuries of last night. "How are you?!" I asked.

She smiled and nodded. "I'm fine. It's hard to hurt some old vampire like me. How do you feel?!"

I nodded. "I'm okay. Better when I saw you."

She smiled before turning to Adrian. "You need to meet officially. Dimitri, this is Adrian Ivashkov, my very long time friend."

"Best friend." Adrian murmured under his breath meaning for us to hear.

She chuckled and nodded. "Yeah. Best friend. Adrian, this is Dimitri Belikov." We shook hands and nodded in acknowledgement.

"It's nice to finally meet you, Dimitri. Rose told me about you. I'm looking forward to spend sometimes with you but I guess you need to do that alone so I'll see you later." He said winking to Roza before walking out of the library.

"Your best friend, huh?!" I asked sarcastically.

She laughed and nodded. "It's hard to find someone like him in our world, Dimitri. You should believe me when I say, Adrian is one of a kind."

I chuckled and nodded. "Oh, I do believe you." I said as we walked to the couch where I sat and pulled her to my lap. I smiled when she sat 'cause I knew if she didn't want to I would not be able to pull her with all her vampire strength.

She locked her arms around my neck as I spoke. "I missed you and I was very disappointed when I didn't find you next to me in the bed."

"Oh, I'm a vampire. Our schedule doesn't work the same way as yours. Besides, I had to help Adrian with all last night's mess." She said as her fingers caress the back of my neck and the hair above it.

I nodded. "I understand. It's okay, we're together. That's what matters now, right?!"

She nodded. "Exactly."

"Now tell me I wasn't dreaming when I confess my love to you." I said looking into her eyes.

"You weren't. Not if you don't want it to be a dream." She said before nuzzling near my ear whispering. "I love you, Dimka. More than it's possible to love."

I locked my arms around her and breathed deeply before answering back. "I love you too, Roza. I'm in love with you."

A grin found its way to her plump lips as her eyes sparkled. "That's great. Perfect."

I nodded as I moved my face closer to her. "You're perfect." I whispered before our lips touched in a world-shattering kiss just by a gentle touch.

It wasn't the force of our lips yet the feelings I felt, we felt. Millions of watts of electricity ran through my body when she kissed me back. When her lips parted to suck my lower one and a growl of pleasure escaped my throat.

My lips parted too and my tongue slid over her lower lip begging for entrance she guaranteed and as I explored the features of her mouth, heard the sound of her moans and experienced the feelings of real love I knew I would never want to leave this woman. I would never live without her. I would never survive without her touch, voice. I didn't want to. I might lose a lot, lost a lot, but I didn't care. I just wanted her. Forever. To the end of the eternity her kiss was telling me she was willing to give it to me.

When we pulled back resting our foreheads on each other's I smiled for real. For the first time since I met her, I smiled of happiness, content and most important of love.

"I love you, Roza. I don't care if you're vampire, witch or even a werewolf. I love you with all I have. I just want to be with you forever." I said pouring my heart to her amazing deep brown orbs.

She smiled and cupped my cheeks. "That's what I was waiting to hear, Dimka. And believe me, I want that too. More than you can imagine. More than you can think." Then she sighed and a hint of sadness was in her eyes. "I know I hurt you a lot, and took a lot from you. For that, I'm so sorry. From now on, you're free. You can do whatever you want. You can leave if you want to. I'll never stop you."

"Aren't you worry about your secret?!" I asked confused and shocked. I thought she'd be more insisting on me staying with her.

She shook her head. "I know you're trustful. Besides, this is more important to me. I want you to choose me 'cause you want to not 'cause it's your only choice. I want you after years of this, when you turn around remembering the past, I want you to smile knowing that you chose by yourself. That you chose right.

"The plane is here. At the beach. You can leave. And when you arrive you'll find all the help you need to resume your life." She said and stood on her feet as I looked at her openmouthed. Was she really saying that?!

She leant closer to me and kissed my cheek. "I love you, Dimitri." Then she disappeared.

"Roza." I whispered but she wasn't there. Not anymore.

To say I was shocked would be an understatement. She was giving me my freedom. I didn't believe that. I was free to go wherever I wanted. She'd never stop me. She wasn't worried about her secret with me.

I stood up and walked to the French door that were covered with thick curtains. I slid them open and walked to the beach. Breathing in the salty fresh air I saw the plane where Roza promised me it would be. Where it was when we first got here.

I picked up my pace to its direction and stood closer to the wooden dock near its door. Suddenly the door was opened and I saw the pilot standing in front of me.

"I was told to wait for you, Sir. Do you have any luggage?!" He asked looking around me.

I shook my head like a dumb before he helped me to the plane. I entered and sat on one of the seats.

He went to his seat before saying. "Fasten your seatbelt." He said as I heard the sound of the engines coming to life.

I did as he said and the plane started to move.
