I'm so so so sorry! I actually have no excuse this time, I just forgot about to do it. I apologise if this chapters a bit short and rubbish I was a bit stuck on what to right. But the good news is that I only have every Wednesday, Thursday and Friday to update for you

DISCLAIMER: I don't own anything but the plot, Richelle Mead does!

CHAPTER 9

Well that was until I heard a voice, which sounded totally shocked and disgusted.

'What the fuck are you doing!?'

It was trey, and from where he was standing a 'brother' and 'sister' where just making out. Ha-ha I had just made out with a vampire, the thought made me smile but that soon disappeared when I looked at Trey.

'That's gross! Please please tell me you guys really ain't related Melbourne or I'm never speaking to you again'

He looked at me and met my eyes. What could I say? Oh trey I'm not really related to any of these, we're just undercover and keeping the princess safe from everyone, including vampires. I was stuck, speechless.

'Trey you're going to—'

'—stop!'

I managed to shout when I heard Adrian trying to compel him. As much as I would like trey to forget, I couldn't do that to him. I sighed.

'Adrian please not to trey. And to answer your question….Adrian isn't related to us….he's….he's just a good friend of the family—'

'Then why—'

'Because that what he is like to us, a brother, but we're not actually related, a…an…and I was just helping him out'

'How—'

Trey's interruptions were really getting on my nerves.

'I helped him get a place in collage, and this time of year it's really difficult but I managed to pull a few strings and finally got him a place in an art course'.

I held my breath, I wasn't lying really, that stuff had happened. I wondered if he was finding flaws in my twisted truth and was surprised but relieved to find his thoughts elsewhere. I let out my breath.

'You paint?' he asked Adrian.

'Yes and draw, hence the name ART'

'Yer sure, anyway I've got to get back to spencer's…and well done in getting a place'

With that trey walked inside. Well that went better that planed. Actually it went to well…

'Sage?'

Adrian pulled me from my thoughts.

'Hmmm?'

'Come to mine tonight?'

'Lord Ivashkov is that an order?'

He winced at his title

'Yes it is, I'm go—'

'Is that girl going to be there? Or Christian?

It occurred to me that since ewe became comfortable around one another, none of us has mentioned our moments of madness. He sighed.

'nope, none of them will, I got rid of her, and well Christians depressed, I think…no I know he's missing Lissa, but Dimitri and Sonya are visiting because well, they didn't exactly get to say anything last time…'

I could feel myself blushing the deepest red remembering the incident, the time I gave myself to him, that seemed like an eternity ago. Adrian Laughed probably from seeing my aura as well as my embarrassment.

'Hopefully we will be more presentable this time, not that I don't mind you walking around nake—'

'Adrian…'

I rolled my eyes

'ok well I've got to go and get involved with some more manual labour…I swear sage your making a house wife out of me! I'll see you later'

He kissed my forehead then walked off. Now that I was alone, I had the weight of what had just happened sitting on my shoulders, it felt like I'd been hit by a tonne of bricks. My brain couldn't make up its mind what it wanted; was it ok for me to do this? Of course it's not! I'm an alchemist! Do I love Adrian? Absolutely yes!. Never in my life have I ever been in a situation where I had to choose loyalty, my job and my family over my unconditional forbidden love for a vampire, I've changed so much.

Trey didn't talk to me for the whole entire day; which makes me think that he didn't believe me my story after all. I was given loads of homework but got it all done ready to go out. My only problem was finding something to wear. After five minutes of undecided time, I finally chose to wear a white blouse and burgundy jeans, not that different from my normal attire, but both comfortable and presentable. I laughed remembering Adrian's words earlier about being presentable. I grabbed my car keys and headed for latte, only to find trey leaning up against it.

'Are you all really related?'

He asked, he's obviously been thinking this over. I probably would be to if I found my friend kissing there 'brother'. I exhaled.

'Trey I told you ear—'

'No earlier in Spencer's, he was talking about you in some other guys arm, and he was jealous! I don't get it; you say you're supposed to be like family, only your snogging his face off! And plus it's just wrong in the first place!'

My head snapped up

'What do you mean it's wrong?

I didn't like this, my heart was pounding and I had that feeling when you know something's not right.

'You know what I'm on about, I knew what you where, but I had no idea about them…'

'Trey, Whats going on?'

'You know damn well whats going on, you an alchemist, he's a vampire! What on earth are you thinking?'

Instead of trying to make him believe otherwise I blurted out

'How do you know that? What the alchemist….what they teach its wrong, they're not like that, I have never met people so polite and caring, who look after me more than my own family!'

'Your right, some of the stuff they teach is wrong, I don't like it but it's the way thing are'

'What are you?'

I asked finally resting my voice from shouting.

'A warrior—'

'—of light! Trey you must understand the position I'm in, I've never felt love, this…what we have is real…please don't tell anyone'

'No I don't understand, I think it's disgusting, but you're right about some things…what they teach…some of its wrong. I don't approve of you and him but…I won't tell anyone'

He started to walk off

'Trey…thank you…I guess'

He didn't say anything; he just disappeared in to the darkness. I could trust trey, he was my friend…or was…is? I can't believe I didn't see it before, the bruises and that, but I guess everyone has their secrets. With that I got into latte and made to drive to Adrian's.

The next chapter we will see more Sydrian alone time ;) hope you like and please review!
