Chapter 10

"What?! You mean Kirova is letting us go? For real?" I asked in shock.

"Yes! Dimitri, you, Christian, and me!" She explained.

"Holy shit! Thank you Lissa! You're the best! This is the greatest birthday gift ever!" I hugged her around her small waist, picked her up and spun her around in a circle.

"You're….. welcome…. Rose….. can't…. breathe….." Lissa panted.

"Oh. Sorry." I said as I set her down.

She ran her hands across her light blue blouse trying to smooth the wrinkles that I had just created. I also noticed that she was wearing a pair of black gauchos, she had straightened her hair and done her makeup also. She looked nice.

"Come on or we're going to be late." Lissa said glancing at the clock and grabbing her huge purse. I too looked at the clock. It read, 6:24 a.m. I was right. I only had been asleep for a few hours….

We walked out of Lissa's room and headed down stairs being quiet because everyone else was sound asleep. Once we reached the door and got outside in the rising morning sun, we continued walking toward the gates to the car.

As we came into view, I saw Dimitri and Christian leaning against the sides of a black Chevrolet Suburban with tinted windows for the Moroi.

Lissa I finally reached them and she went straight into Christian's arms. Dimitri just stood there taking all of me in.

"You look beautiful." He told me.

"No, you do." He was wearing a nice pair of dark jeans that fit him good, a tight fitting black shirt that clung to his wonderful body, his brown duster and of course his hair was pulled back in its usual ponytail.

"I'm not beautiful." He argued with a slight smile on his face.

"You're right. You're down right gorgeous."

He just laughed, closed the space between us and wrapped his arms around me. The scent of leather and aftershave engulfed me. I responded by reaching up and giving him a kiss. He immediately kissed me back without any other encouragement. After a couple seconds, I could feel his tongue tracing my bottom lip and I was about to open my mouth further to allow him to enter when we heard someone clearing their throat.

We reluctantly broke apart to see Lissa and Christian looking at us.

"Sorry." Dimitri apologized.

"I'm not." I replied.

They just laughed as Dimitri opened the passenger door for me and I got in. Christian and Lissa climbed into the back seat while Dimitri walked around to the driver's side.

Once everyone was in, we drove out of the school's gates. And wards.

And that's when it hit me. The headache.

"Shit!" I cussed slapping my hand to my head.

Dimitri slammed on the brakes. "What's wrong?"

"I have another one of those fucking headaches." As soon as I said that, ghostly figures started to float around us. Some were familiar, others were complete strangers. I shut my eyes tightly and putting as much venom as I could in my voice, I told them, "GO AWAY!" Apparently ghosts were afraid of the Badass Rose Hathaway as well, because when I said that, they all dispersed.

Lissa leaned into the front seat and handed me a bottle of Advil. "Here, take some of these. Maybe they'll help a little."

I poured five of the small round pills into my hand and popped them in my mouth, swallowing them all without any water.

"Rose, I don't think you were supposed to take that many." Dimitri stated as he started to drive again.

"I don't really care. I'm in pain." I said as I leaned my head back against the headrest.

He reached over and took my hand in his. He started to rub circles on the back of my hand with his thumb. It felt great.

After about thirty minutes, the Advil started to kick in. I could easily ignore the throbbing in my head now. I looked back to see Lissa and Christian curled up against each other, asleep.

"Feeling better?" Dimitri asked me.

"Much better." I answered him.

"I'm glad." He said turning to smile at me. When he smiled like that, it made me feel warm inside.

I grinned back at him and leaned my head on his shoulder. "So, what's on the agenda for today?"

"Whatever you want to do."

"Whatever I want? Hmmmm….. Well let's see here…." I pondered, putting my finger on my chin.

Dimitri just laughed and said, "Whatever you want to do at the mall." Knowing very well where my train of thought was headed.

I sat up and crossed my arms across my chest. "That's not fair." I replied and turned around to look out the window, trying to get him to cave.

"Roza…."

I smiled inwardly. It was working. So far….

That's when we heard shuffling in the back.

"Are we there yet? Christian complained.

"We have about forty-five more minutes to go." Dimitri clarified.

"I can't believe Lissa talked me into doing this…." Christian groaned.

"Suck it up bang boy." One of my many nicknames for him. I called him this because his bangs were constantly in his eyes. "We aren't taking you back now. No matter how much I want to." I told him.

"Love you too Rosie!"

"Christian! I told you not to call me that!" I was about to jump back there and hurt somebody. And I believe that somebody would be Christian.

"Rose, calm down." Dimitri said resting his hand on my thigh.

I sighed heavily as an electric shock from Dimitri's touch ran through me and continued to look out the window.

Forty-five minutes later, we pulled into the mall's parking lot. It was crowded as usual for a Saturday. We all got out of the vehicle and stretched from the two hour drive.

Lissa ran up to me and grabbed my hand. "Come on Rose! Aren't you excited?!"

I laughed at how excited she was. "Yeah Lissa, I am. I don't know how I will ever thank you."

"Being my Guardian and best friend is thanks enough."

We smiled at each other after that walked towards the mall doors with Christian and Dimitri on our heels.

For the next few hours, Lissa and I walked from store to store looking at and buying pretty much whatever we wanted.

I bought, well Lissa bought for me, a few cute tops and shorts for spring and summer. I also got some more jeans, tank tops, and regular t-shirts.

While we were in one store, I forgot the name of; Lissa was trying to get Christian to try something on, so I walked over to Dimitri.

"Are you having fun?" He asked.

"I would be having more fun if you were involved." I admitted. The whole time we were here, he was playing far guard.

"Rose, you know I have to look out for Strigoi."

"Oh please Dimitri! We can multi-task. Have fun and still be aware of our surroundings at the same time. Plus, I know when they're around. You know that."

He sighed. "I know."

"Good. Now come. I'm feeling neglected. I might need your help picking something out." I grabbed his hands and pulled him towards me. He came willingly and placed his arms around me.

"I highly doubt that," He laughed. "You seem to be doing a fine job without me." But before I could say anything, his warm lips were on mine. After a minute, I felt him smile against my mouth.

I pulled back slightly. "What?"

"Nothing. It just feels weird doing this out in public."

"I know what you mean. But we might as well get use to it." I replied grinning as I reached up to kiss him again.

"Oh my gosh Rose!" I heard Lissa yell. "This is just the dress for you!"

I reluctantly pulled away from Dimitri to look at the dress Lissa was holding. She was right. That dress was meant to be mine. It was similar to the one I wore to the dance last year. It was black and strapless. And micro-mini. I loved it. From the corner of my eye, I saw Dimitri's eyes widen just a tad. I took that as a sign of his approval. I smiled to myself.

"You're right Lissa." I told her looking at the dress with envy.

She grinned from ear to ear. "Oh, and these shoes." She said pulling out a pair of strappy black high heels from behind her back that matched the dress perfectly.

"But Lissa, where am I going to wear these?" I asked.

"You'll see!"

"What? More surprises?"

Lissa just laughed and ran off to pay for the dress and heels with Christian by her side.

"Do you know anything about this?" I inquired turning to Dimitri.

"Of course I do. And don't ask what it is because I'm not going to tell you so you might as well save your breath."

"Ugh!" I groaned.

Dimitri just chuckled while I glared at him.

Christian and Lissa returned with a bag in hand. "We have one more store to go to before we leave."

"And what would that be?"

"Follow me." And with that said, she started walking.

After a minute or two, we came to…. Victoria's Secret.

I laughed and grabbed Dimitri's hand. "Come on Dimitri, you can help me choose something in here."

When we walked through the door, Dimitri froze.

"What? You act like you've never been in here before." I said playfully to him.

"I haven't."

Lissa and Christian came up beside us.

"Don't worry Guardian Belikov, neither have I." Christian stated.

Lissa and I just laughed. "Oh! Look Rose! They're having a sale on corsets!" She all but yelled.

I latched a hold of Dimitri's hand and pulled him along with me.

"So, which one do you think I'd look good in?" I asked him once we reached the corsets. There were a ton of them in all different colors and styles.

"Rose, you look good in everything." He commented wrapping his arms around me, but his eyes were locked on a Sequined Satin and Lace Corset.

Grinning, I broke loose from his grip, walked over, picked it up and held it against me. "What do you think about this one?"

He showed no emotion on his face, but I could see the flames of desire in his eyes. This only made my grin grow bigger.

"I think that one would look very nice on you." He replied, in control of his emotions. Well, he was on the outside anyway, not so sure how he was doing on the inside.

"Hmmm, I think I'll get it."

Lissa didn't get a corset, but she bought a very boring bra and panty set. I on the other hand got some more push up bras, boy shorts and thongs. And Dimitri looked very happy about my choices.

We bought all our stuff and headed for the door.

"I don't know about you guys, but I starving!" I exclaimed.

"Funny you mention that." Lissa answered. She grabbed my hand and pulled me to a nearby restroom. "Guardian Belikov, Christian, we'll be out in a minute." She told them over her shoulder.

I stumbled into the bathroom and placed my hand on the wall to steady myself. "Liss, why did we come in here? And why didn't you leave the bags with the guys?"

She was too busy digging through the bags to answer me at first. Then she found what she was looking for. My black dress. "Here, put this on."

"But wh-"

She cut me off with a smile on her face. "Just put it on."

I sighed. "Fine." Though I was excited to see what it would look like on me. I walked into the handicap stall and started to strip off my clothes until I was down to my black boy shorts. Can't wear a bra with a strapless dress. I pulled the little black dress over my head and it fell into place perfectly. It showed all my curves, cleavage and flared out a little where it stopped just above the middle of my thighs. I wasn't kidding when I said the dress was micro-mini. Everyone was going to be in danger if I had to bend over…

I walked out of the stall to show Lissa how the dress looked on me.

"Oh my God Rose it looks amazing on you!!!"

"I know, right?!" She took my other clothes from me and shoved them in the bag that the dress had come out of. Then she grabbed my strappy high heels out of their box and handed them to me. I didn't hesitate at all to put them on. Lissa then proceeded to touch up my makeup and hair. She must have done hers while I was changing.

"Aw, Rose you're so pretty!" Lissa cried when she was done.

Even I had to agree. I looked drop dead gorgeous. I could wait for Dimitri to see me.

"Thanks Liss. You look really pretty too."

She just smiled at me, collected all the bags, grabbed my hand and drug me out of the restroom.

Due to Lissa dragging me and the high heels, I staggered out only to be caught by Dimitri's strong arms.

"Thanks Comrade."

He just chuckled but stopped when he saw what I was wearing. He shook his head slightly to clear it. "Anytime. And you look beautiful."

"I know I do." I replied in a playful tone, and then I turned to Lissa, "Can we please get something to eat now before my stomach eats itself?"

Christian laughed while Lissa said, "Rose, I don't think that your stomach eating itself is possible. And yes we can now go get something to eat."

I saw a flash of my favorite restaurant, Olive Garden, through the bond. "We're going to Olive Garden?!" I asked excitedly.

"Well it was supposed to be a surprise…." Lissa muttered under her breath.

"Thank you Lissa! I love you!" I shouted as I crushed her in a huge bear hug. After a few seconds, I let her down. For the second time today, Lissa smoothed the wrinkles out of her blouse that I had created.

"Well, let's go eat some food." Christian said grabbing Lissa's hand and started walking toward the exit.

Dimitri took my hand in his and turned me around to face him. He bent slowly to place a butterfly kiss very gently on my glossed lips. "You have no idea what that dress does to me." He mumbled against them.

I just grinned. "Oh really? And what would that be?"

"Rose! Dimitri! Come on you two love birds! We do have reservations you know! We have to be there on time!" Lissa yelled from the door.

"Jesus! Can we not have two seconds alone?!" I complained to Dimitri.

He just chuckled and drug me to the door. "Come on. Let's go."

We walked out to the parking lot and found our vehicle. Lissa threw the bags in the back, then Christian and her climbed in. I got in the passenger seat as Dimitri started the engine. Once we were all in our seatbelts, we headed off to Olive Garden. It was only about twenty minutes from the mall, so it didn't take us any time to get there.

When we walked through the doors, I could smell all the different aromas of food swirling around the air. It made my mouth water. Lissa walked up to the lady at the stand and said, "Reservations for Dragomir."

"Yes ma'am. Right this way." The lady replied.

She led us to a booth for four. Christian and Lissa on one side, Dimitri and I on the other. The lady left and a male waiter came to serve us. He looked a little bit taller than me, but not nearly as tall as Dimitri. His hair about as long as Christian's, but it was an auburn color. And his eyes were green. Not like Lissa's light jade green, but dark emerald green.

"Hello, my name is Toby." He greeted us. "Would you like to start out with something to drink?" He asked glancing around at everyone at the table and passing around menus, but when his eyes reached me, he just froze and stared. And let's just say that didn't go unnoticed by Dimitri…

Dimitri cleared his throat to regain Toby's attention, but the clearing of his throat sounded more like a growl. To show Dimitri that I wasn't interested in this infatuated teenager, I scooted closer to him then I already was, grabbed his hand that was balled into a fist on the table and intertwined my fingers with his. I then rested my head on his shoulder. Dimitri seemed to relax some, but he was still glaring daggers at the waiter.

That was when Lissa ordered her drink. "I'll have sweet tea with lemon, please."

"Coke." Christian stated.

"I'll have water." Dimitri said unpleasantly.

"Same here." I replied, with my head still on Dimitri's shoulder.

Toby turned on his heel to retrieve out beverages. Dimitri started rubbing circles into my hand with his thumb just like he had in the car. Christian and Lissa were saying something to each other, but I wasn't paying any attention and I doubted Dimitri was either. I was caught up in the moment with Dimitri's touch sending sparks of electricity through me.

A few moments later, Toby returned with our drinks, salad and bread sticks. My favorite. "Are you ready to order? Or do you need a few more minutes?"

"Um, a few more minutes if you don't mind." Lissa answered. She was always so polite. Toby just smiled at her and walked away.

We all opened our menus and started searching for what we wanted. I was looking under Fish & Seafood when I saw what I wanted. Seafood Alfredo. It was sautéed shrimp and scallops tossed with creamy fettuccine alfredo. My mouth started watering just reading about it.

"What are you getting?" I asked Dimitri trying to distract myself from eating the menu right there. I was starving.

"Hmm… I think the Chicken Parmigiana. You?"

"Definitely the Seafood Alfredo."

He laughed. "Yeah, that sounds like a good choice."

"Oh I know it is." I replied, lightly elbowing him in the side. I then turned to Lissa and asked, "Lissa, what are you getting?"

"Actually, Christian and I are going to split a plate, since we don't eat as much as Dhampirs." She smiled jokingly. "But we're going to get the Chicken & Shrimp Carbonara"

I quickly read the description for it. Chicken and shrimp with bucatini pasta in a pancetta bacon and parmesan cream sauce, baked and topped with seasoned breadcrumbs. "Ah. Of course. Christian has to have his bacon."

"And? Is that a problem?" Christian snapped.

"Why is it that you two cannot talk without arguing?" Lissa complained. "I feel like a mom."

"You can't be my mom and my girlfriend at the same time. It's either one or the other." Christian joked. Lissa just giggled as Christian planted a kiss on her lips.

I turned to Dimitri. "Eww. Gross don't you think?"

"Not when I'm kissing you." And with that being said, he leaned down and brushed his lips very gently across mine. The kiss soon escalated to more. Dimitri nipped at my bottom lip with his teeth, asking for an entrance. I was about to grant his wish when we heard:

"Are you now ready to order?"

I swear I could have knocked Toby out right then and there. And from the look on Dimitri's face, he was apparently thinking the same thing.

But before either one of us could say anything, Lissa answered him. "Yes sir, we are." He turned to her with his little notepad and pen, ready to jot our orders down. "We would like the Chicken & Shrimp Carbonara."

Toby then turned to us. "I want the Seafood Alfredo." I said irritably. I wanted to kiss Dimitri more.

He just gave me a questioning look and looked at Dimitri, unpleasantly I might add, for his order. "I would like the Chicken Parmigiana."

Toby quickly scribbled that down and asked, "Is that all for now?"

"Yes it is." Lissa clarified.

After he left to give the chefs our order, we all started devouring the salad and bread sticks.

Not long after, everything was gone. But I was still hungry.

"So Rose, have you enjoyed your birthday?" So far? She finished through the bond. What in the hell was that suppose to mean? Was there more? And I yet again, had another cliffhanger on my hands.

"Yes Lissa, I really have. I don't know how I will ever thank you."

She just laughed. "Don't worry about it. I already told you that earlier."

"I know. But I'm sure you'll need me to do something for you one of these days." I said smiling at her.

"You're probably right." She smiled back.

Christian suddenly captured her attention with something he said.

I turned back to Dimitri. "You might want to check you food when it arrives to make sure Toby didn't spit in it." I said smiling while my fingers creped along the top of his leg.

Dimitri froze at how close my hand was to… him. "Oh, if he does, he's done had a bad day." He threatened while he moved my hand away. "Not in public." He murmured low enough for only me to hear.

"Then when?" I whispered back. "You still haven't given me my present yet. From you."

"You'll get it. Later."

"Uh-huh." I responded as our food was served. But from the corner of my eye, I swear I saw Dimitri smirk.

When we all finished our food, Toby came back around and asked if we wanted any dessert. Of course I did.

Turning to Dimitri I asked, "Do you want o split one?"

"Sure that's fine. Which one do you want?"

I glanced at the menu he was holding. "Is the Torta di Chocolate alright with you?" It was a warm double chocolate cake served with vanilla cream sauce and fresh strawberries.

Dimitri smiled. "I was looking at the same thing."

I laughed and kissed him on the check. "You know what they say, two great minds think alike."

"That they do. And you happen to have a wonderful mind." He complemented me as his hand slid up my thigh. I shivered involuntary. I was glad our booth had a table cloth draped over it so no one could see what he was doing. But what happened to not in public?

"Hey Liss, are you and Christian going to get anything?" I asked trying to distract myself from Dimitri's touch and failing miserably. His hand just kept going higher and higher…

"Yeah, I think we're going to get the Chocolate Gelato." I looked at the menu again to see what that was. Creamy chocolate gelato topped with caramel sauce and dark chocolate pieces. It looked alright, but I think mine and Dimitri's was going to be better.

We told Toby what we wanted and he yet again went to go fetch our orders.

In the mean time while we were waiting for our desserts, Dimitri fingers drew random designs on the inside of my thigh right under my dress. And I was starting to grow wet… Please, please, please hurry up with our desserts so I don't jump Dimitri right now on the table, I thought.

And as if on que, Toby showed up right then with our last course. He placed the dishes on the table and we all dug in. Though Dimitri never removed that one hand.

After that, we were all stuffed and ready to get back to the Academy. Lissa paid the bill and we all gathered our things and headed for the parking lot to where the car was.

We all climbed in the car, and got settled in for the long two hour drive back to the Academy. We had only been on the road for about ten minutes when I heard a soft snoring in the back coming from Christian. I glanced back to see Lissa curled up against Christian and that they were both sound asleep. I turned back around and crossed my arms tightly under my breasts, thus making them about come out the top of my dress, and trying very hard to control the heat forming between my legs.

Dimitri looked at me from the corner of his eye and pressed the gas pedal down harder. His knuckles were turning white from his tight grip on the steering wheel. I grinned. I wasn't the only one having a hard time fighting for control. And it was just the beginning of the trip…

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Two miserably long hours later, we finally arrived at the gates of the Academy. Dimitri briefly spoke to the Guardian guarding the gates, and after he made sure we weren't sneaking any Strigoi pass the wards to go on another Strigoi raid, he let us through.

Dimitri parked the car as I turned around in my seat to wake Lissa and Christian up. "Lissa, Christian, wake up we're back at the Academy." I half whispered, half yelled at them. Lissa stretched and yawned as Christian grumbled something incoherent while they both got out of the car sleepily.

I helped Lissa grab all the bags to haul back up to her room while Dimitri and a grumpy looking Christian waited off to the side. Once we had all the bags gathered we walked over to where the guys stood.

"Rose, I'm going to walk Christian back to his dorm while you walk Lissa back to hers. After that, you can go back to your dorm for the night." Dimitri said.

I gave him a confused look. "Okay….." Why was I supposed to go back to my dorm? Wasn't I supposed to stay with Lissa or Christian? And most importantly, what about my gift from Dimitri? He did get me something, right? So many unanswered questions….

Christian gave Lissa a kiss on the cheek then he and Dimitri turned and left. I shook my head. I was really confused. What about the looks Dimitri was giving me in the car and what happened in the restaurant? I sighed as Lissa and I made our way to her room.

Once we reached her dorm and snuck up to her room, since everyone else was asleep, we sat all the bags on the extra bed.

"Liss, I'll come by tomorrow and pick up all my stuff. I don't feel like carrying it all right now."

"Alright, that's fine." She yawned as she headed towards the bathroom. "I'll talk to you tomorrow. Night."

"Night. And thanks again for everything Liss."

"You're welcome." I heard her reply through the door.

I turned around and exited her room to head to mine. I had just walked out into the afternoon sunshine when someone grabbed me from behind and tied a blindfold around my eyes. I started to scream and put up a fight when a large warm hand covered my mouth.

"Shh Rose! Calm down! It's only me." Dimitri. I stopped my struggling immediately. It's not like I was getting anywhere anyway. Once he realized I wasn't going to fight anymore, he removed his hand.

"What the hell Dimitri?!" I exclaimed. "What's with the blindfold? I can't see a thing!"

He chuckled. "That's the point." He then picked me up and tossed me over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes. No doubt everyone could see my ass now.

I started bouncing slightly as he walked. "Ummm, Dimitri… my dress…"

"There's no one out to see." Was his answer.

"Except the Guardians." I corrected.

"They are all switching shifts. And besides, where we are going, they don't guard anyway."

"Which is where exactly?" I asked.

"You will see."

I gave up on trying to figure out where he was taking me. Instead I listened to the rhythm of his footsteps. Crunch. Crunch. Crunch. It sounded like we were… in the woods. And the only thing that was in the woods that the Guardians didn't guard was the old lookout cabins.

After a few moments, Dimitri stopped to open a door. Yep, it was defiantly a cabin. And not just a cabin, it was The Cabin. The very cabin that I lost my virginity in. I could feel it.

Dimitri walked in and closed the door behind us. At last, he finally set me down and I about fell. But before I did, he caught me like always.

"Just give me a minute while all the blood rushes out of my head." I explained. I could hear a fire crackling off to the side and I smelled something… strange. "Dimitri, why does it smell like vanilla and roses?"

All of a sudden the blindfold disappeared revealing the scene in front of me. Vanilla candles and crystal bowls of red roses covered every flat surface while whole roses and rose petals covered the floor and bed.

I was speechless.

"Rose…" Dimitri started.

"Dimitri…" I breathed. "It's so beautiful." I didn't want to tear my eyes away from the scene. "But how did you do this?" I asked turning around to face him.

He smiled down at me. "Guardian secrets."

I smiled back up at him. He wrapped his arms around my waist and brought his mouth down to mine to kiss me. The kiss was soft and sweet. After a minute, he moved his lips to my ear and whispered, "Happy Birthday."

His warm breath tickled me and a shiver ran down my spine. Stepping back I grabbed him by the hands and pulled him with me closer to the bed. I ran my hands up his chest and over his shoulders, pushing his duster off to the floor. "Thanks Comrade." I said with my best man-eating smile.

He growled deep in his throat and leaned down to kiss me again, this time more passionately. One hand was busy undoing the loose bun that Lissa had created earlier, while the other was on my hip pulling me closer. In the meantime, both of my arms had snaked around his neck like an anaconda. When he ran his tongue over my bottom lip, I thought I was going to melt into a puddle. But of course I let him enter and soon our tongues were moving to a dance that only they knew.

I broke the kiss so that we could breathe, but that didn't stop Dimitri. His mouth moved down to where he started covering my neck with sensual kisses. My head rocked back, begging for his lips to descend lower. I removed my hands from around his neck, down his shirt and back up underneath it. I ran my hands over his hard core abs and over his muscular chest. When I reached his shoulders, he stopped kissing me to help remove his shirt since he was so freakishly tall. Once his shirt was off, he bent down to slip off his boots and socks. God, even his feet were sexy!

While he was down there, he tried to undo my strappy high heels with no such luck.

"СУКИН СЫН! These things are impossible to undo!" Dimitri cursed, or so I assumed since he wouldn't teach me how to swear in Russian.

I laughed. "No they aren't. Here." I bent down in front of him and easily undid both in less than a minute.

"Women over accessorize…" He stated.

"Yup, all for the sake of looking good." Standing back up, I stepped out of the heels and waited for him to rise.

Placing his hands on each of my calves, he slowly rose, dragging his hands up my legs the whole way. When he reached the bottom of my dress, he gathered the fabric in his hands and slowly pushed it up until it was over my head, then it too was tossed to the floor.

There we both stood half naked, me more so than him.

Dimitri ran his eyes over my body, lingering on my bare chest. "Roza, you are so beautiful." he murmured, his Russian accent thick.

I was starting to grow even more wet than I already was and my nipples were starting to harden under his gaze.

Closing the space between us, I placed my hands on his chest and slowly slid them down to his belt buckle. I tugged on it slightly, pulling him closer to me. Gently I undid his belt, then the button on his jeans and casually unzipped his zipper one tooth at a time. Hooking my thumbs in his belt loops I pulled his jeans down until they hit the floor. On my way back up I brushed my hand across the bulge in his silky red boxers making him tremble.

I placed my arms around his neck and stood on my toes to kiss him. While we were kissing, he scooped me up in his arms and carried me the rest of the way to the bed. He laid me down on the quilt comforter -and rose petals- and hovered over me without ever breaking the kiss.

His lips traveled down my body to my breasts. He kissed all around my left one before he ever took the nipple into his mouth. When he did, I let a small moan escape from my lips. Not to leave my right neglected, his hand started to massage it, squeezing and pinching my now hardened nipple.

After a few minutes, he switched, doing the same thing he was, just to the opposite breast. I arched toward him as his mouth moved over me. As my upper body occupied his attention for the time being, my hands had explored their way down to the now noticeable lump in his boxers. I played with him through the thin fabric, rubbing, brushing, and stroking his member until Dimitri lifted his head from between the valley of my breasts, "This is going to be over a hell of a lot faster than I expected if you keep doing that."

I smiled and grabbed the hard length of him though the silky material to show him how serious I was. "Dimitri, I need you."

He gave me a crooked smile and whispered in my ear, "Patience my love." And kissed me once before continuing to cover my body more in lascivious caresses.

Just to show him how serious I was, I raised my legs like I was going to wrap them around his waist, but instead I hooked my toes in the waist band of his boxers and pulled them off.

Dimitri growled deep in his throat as he lifted himself from me, dragging his hands down my sides until they were resting on my hips and he was sitting on his knees between my legs. "A little bit feisty are we?" He chuckled as he pulled off my now soaking wet boy shorts and froze. "You shaved."

"Just the little bit that was there since last time. I thought you might want something different." I said seductively as I threw my leg around him and pulled him back down to me to kiss him yet again.

"Well you were right." He mumbled against my lips. "I do like it. A lot."

I smiled in return. "Good."

While we were attacking each other with our mouths, his hand smoothly made its way down and started to stimulate my clit. I gasped slightly from the unexpected touched and tightened my arms around his neck. But it wasn't enough. I wanted more. I needed him.

Breaking away to breathe, I tried to tell him, but before I could get a word out, his head had already replaced his hand between my legs. I cried out in pleasure as his warm, moist mouth covered me. I tangled my hands in his hair, holding him there. His hot mouth, now demanding and ravenous, fed on me. Moving his hands to the insides of my thighs, he pushed my legs further apart as his tongue dove wet and hard inside me. I screamed out in complete utter pleasure as my hips started bucking while he continued sucking as if I were a rare, ripe exotic fruit oozing juices he craved. He pinched my oversized bud gently, deliciously, with his teeth as if he could squeeze out more, which he did, then lapped up every drop and demanded more.

My moans and gasps were coming more quickly now as I repeated Dimitri's name over and over. I was about to reach my climax when suddenly… it stopped. My eyes flashed open and I was about to protest but I couldn't say anything as his mouth suddenly crashed down on mine. I could taste myself on his lips which only made me that much hornier.

"Dimitri," I mumbled against his eager lips, "Please…." I begged. This was just torture.

Shifting himself above me, he started to rub the tip of his eleven inch erection between my legs. He and I both moaned quietly as he moved back and forth, letting my juices coat the hard length of him.

Finally he slid into me. But not all the way. He only went part way in before he pulled out, teasing me.

"Dimitri." I growled.

He just pulled his face back to look at me. "What?" He smirked.

"You know what."

"Do you like this?" He asked while he glided into me and back out again.

I moaned. "Yess, I love it! I love you!" I said as I wrapped my legs around his waist trying to pull him closer to me as he continued his little game. Well, there was nothing little about him…

Capturing my lips with his, he thrust the rest of the way into me. I moaned into his mouth.

Soon we had our own rhythm going. Him thrusting into me while I pushed my hips up to meet him every time he came down. After a little bit of that, I flipped him over to where I was straddling his hips with him still inside me. I leaned over to kiss him, my breasts and hard nipples pressing into his chest as I rotated my hips in a circular motion, making him groan in pleasure.

Once I had done a couple of rounds of that, I sat up and started to ride Dimitri like a horse. Up and down, up and down. My C-cup breasts were bouncing in all directions, as the sound of skin slapping together and both our moans were all we could hear.

"Roza…" Dimitri grunted grabbing my jack hammering hips. "Come… with… me."

I glanced down to see Dimitri's eyes closed with obvious force as he waited for me to come with him.

When I saw that look on his face, I came down on him hard, making both of us explode at the same time.

I collapsed on top of him, both of our breathing hard. He wrapped his arms around me and turned us on our sides to face each other. I threw my leg around his waist to still keep us together as one.

"You were amazing." Dimitri gasped sliding his hand down to my hip.

I kissed him tenderly as I tightened myself around him purposely. "The first time was great, but this time was incredible. I didn't think it could get any better."

He smiled at me before he bent down to nuzzle my neck. "Don't think we're anywhere near done yet. We've only just begun."

Well, I guess it's a good thing Dhampirs have stamina.

Before I had even caught my breath, Dimitri flipped me over onto my hands and knees in a flash. Clutching my waist in his hands, he plunged into me in one fluid motion.

"DIMITRI!!!" I screamed out as loud as I could, not caring who heard me.

He leaned over and whispered in my ear "Shh. Not so loud my love. We don't want to get caught now do we?"

"No." I whimpered.

"Good girl." He answered. Then he started humping me like a dog. My arms started shaking from the intense pleasure he was causing me.

"Dim-" Was all I could manage to say at the time.

"Yes Roza?" Dimitri answered moving one of his hands around to my front to knead my clit while still humping me.

I started gasping, moaning and saying Dimitri's name more than I was before. "D-don't s-stop!!" I shrieked. That only made him pump faster. I couldn't move even if I wanted to.

I was reaching my climax again for the second time when Dimitri started to nip and suck on my neck, as his other hand was pinching my hard nipples and the other was still manipulating my swollen clit when I couldn't take it anymore. I tightened around him and I lost it. My arms buckled underneath me, but my knees still held. Dimitri exploded within me not long after and I could feel both of our juices running in a steady stream down both of my legs. It felt good in a weird way.

Dimitri pulled out of me slowly and I felt empty without him in me. I rolled over on my back and looked down at him.

"Are you not tired yet?" I asked him breathing hard.

"I'm not going to lie down until you're cleaned up." And with that being said, he started licking and sucking all the wetness off the insides of my thighs. When he got it all off my legs, he didn't stop. He continued to lick my dripping wet folds and everything inside. God this man was amazing. Not even over my last orgasm I grabbed his head and held him there. Spreading my legs he continued to do naughty things with his mouth, teeth and tongue. And I had yet another orgasm, bucking and riding his tongue and head. I was a hot wet mess in front of him and he loved every second of it. I have to admit, so did I.

When he was finished, he crawled up and laid down beside me; throwing his arm around me.

"I love you." I said as I rolled over on top of him, laying my head on his chest.

He started running his fingers through my long hair. "I love you too, my Roza."

I kissed his chest, down to his stomach, until I reached his still hard erection. It was beautiful. And huge. Eleven inches is bigger than you think.

"Roza, what are you doing?" Dimitri inquired, lifting his head and looking downward at me.

"What do you think?" I asked seductively, grabbing him. His eyes rolled back a little in his head. I leaned down and placed a kiss on the very tip. "Roza…" He groaned.

Going down further, I licked him from his balls to the head of his penis. Back and forth, until he was covered. Then I took him into my mouth and started sucking, licking, nibbling and what I couldn't reach with my mouth I rubbed with my hands. He really liked it when I swirled my tongue around the tip of his penis. I even deep throated him. Lifting up a little, I placed Dimitri Jr. between my breasts. Dimitri was leaning back on his elbows watching everything I was doing. Keeping his member between my breasts, I started kissing and licking the tip of his erection like crazy. After a couple of moments of that, Dimitri started moaning really loud.

"Roza, I'm going to come!" He warned me. I smiled, I couldn't wait. Two seconds after he said that he came all over me. My face, neck, and breasts were covered in his warm come. I rose up on my knees and started rubbing my breasts together, spreading his come, and moaning his name. I lifted my left breast to my mouth and licked all the come I could off of it. He was delicious. I started to do my right, but Dimitri was on top of me before I could, licking and sucking my breasts, neck and face clean.

We both fell back on the bed when he was done.

"Roza that was mind blowing." He breathed.

I snuggled closer to him and rested my head on his chest. "Yeah it was wasn't it?" I sighed closing my eyes.

He pulled the covers up closer around us and wrapped his arms around me. The last thing I remember was Dimitri kissing my forehead and whispering "I love you" before I fell into a soundless sleep.

Or so I thought.

I was in Adrian's Grandmother's garden standing under a blooming apple tree. I sighed. "Adrian, where are you? Let's get this trip done and over with. I would like to go back to sleep."

He stepped out from behind a red rose bush and picked one as he started walking towards me. "How many times do I have to tell you that you are asleep?" He replied with a smirk on his face as he handed the rose to me. "Happy Birthday Little Dhampir."

I took the rose reluctantly. "Thanks. Now can I go?"

"What's the rush? Stay and talk with me. I haven't seen or talked to you since I've left. I've missed you." He said.

"That's not my problem. And I haven't missed you. It's been… peaceful." I admitted.

He almost looked hurt. Almost. "Rose. Can you give me a chance? Please?"

"What? No!" I exclaimed. "Adrian, please understand that I have no interest in you whatsoever. Get that through your thick skull."

"You're still crazy about Belikov aren't you?" I looked away to colorful humming birds flying around a bush full of flowers. I could feel Adrian studying me. "You look different. Your aura. I can't quite put my finger on it."

I could only guess what it was…

"It has more gold in it than it normally does. Like you're happy about something. What have you done today?"

"Nothing. Lissa took me to the mall." I sighed impatiently.

"That was kind of her. I need to go visit her and tell her about my discoveries." He mused.

I shifted; I was ready to go back to my own dream. Hopefully it had something to do with Dimitri. Ah, Dimitri. I smiled.

"What are you smiling about?"

"Nothing Adrian. I'm just ready for you to leave."

"Ah you're so kind sometimes. I can't wait until you realize that I'm the one for you." He commented.

Before I could protest, he leaned over and kissed me. On the lips. I jumped back and punched him in the jaw. He staggered back holding his face. "What the hell was that for?" He slurred. I think I might have broken it. Oh well.

"For kissing me you asshole! What else do you think?!" I yelled at him.

"I was just trying to show you that you wanted me too!" Yeah I defiantly broke his jaw. He could barley talk.

"No! You're wrong! I don't want you! I don't even like you, you crazy son of a bitch!" I roared at him, while shoving him backwards. He fell. "Get that through your fucking head!"

He jumped up with the scariest look I've ever seen on Adrian's face and he got right in mine. I was honestly scared for a second. "I love you, and you'll love me too. I'll make sure of it." And then he vanished.

I woke up gasping in a cold sweat back in the cabin. Jerking up in bed, I ran a hand over my face and through my damp hair. Bright sunlight was shining through the cracks in the curtains.

Dimitri, sensing my distress even in the middle of sleep, sat up and wrapped his arms around my waist, resting his chin on my shoulder. "Rose, what's wrong?"

I took a couple of deep breaths and leaned back into Dimitri. "Adrian visited me." I whispered.

"What did he do or say?" Dimitri asked truly worried now.

"First it just started out like it normally does." I continued whispering. "He picked me a rose, wished me happy birthday and was just being Adrian when I asked him to go away and leave me alone. Then he kissed me." I felt Dimitri stiffen under me. "And I broke his jaw by punching him. After that he said with this evil look on his face, "I love you, and you'll love me too. I'll make sure of it."." I nestled closer into Dimitri. "Dimitri, I'm not normally scared of anyone or anything, but I'm scared. That look on his face…."

"Shh. Shh Roza. I'm not going to let anything happen to you." He pulled me onto his lap and cradled me like a baby against his chest. "I promise."

Wrapping my arms around his neck, I kissed him affectionately on the lips. "I love you." I mumbled against them.

"I love you too."

He laid us back down on the bed, and pulled me as close to him as possible, stroking me from my collar bone to my hip. I had my hand resting on his cheek.

"What time is it?" I wondered aloud.

Dimitri glanced toward a window with sunlight peeking through the ragged curtain. "Probably around two or three."

"You can tell that from just looking at the sun?" I asked in amazement.

He chuckled. "Yes I can. Though it's probably more towards three."

I sighed. "We have to go back soon don't we?" I asked.

"Well if you want to eat we do. But I have today off." Dimitri murmured as he kissed my neck. That made me excited.

"So, we could possibly come back?" I inquired excitedly throwing my leg over his hip and rolling us over to where he was on his back and I was straddling him with my hands on his chest.

Placing both hands on my hips, he rolled us back over to where he was on top of me, his weight pressing me into the bed. "Possibly." He admitted kissing me. Sliding his hand down to my clit, he rubbed his fingers in a circular motion making me wet very fast. I moaned into his mouth at the feeling of him touching me. With no effort at all, he easily slid two fingers into me. Gasping I arched my back, thus making his fingers dig deeper into me.

"Dimitri!" I screamed. I felt him growl deep in his chest which vibrated through me as I started bucking my hips against his magnificent long fingers. He then started pushing his fingers in and out matching my thrusts. When I was just about to reach my climax, he curled his fingers, hitting my G-spot. I shrieked out in pleasure, almost blacking out from the bliss.

He rolled off me but kept his hand at my soaking wet center. As I was coming down from my high, Dimitri was nibbling on my ear. I started giggling.

"Dimitri stop! It tickles!" I squirmed. As I was trying to wriggle away he was trying to pin me down to torture me. This continued on until it became a game of playful wrestling. But just like the Fake Strigoi fight, we were to evenly matched. I had just about pinned him down when he used the full force of his body to knock me backwards and pin me down. We were too caught up in our game that we didn't hear someone approaching the cabin, but we were fully aware of when someone opened the door and a cold breeze sweep over us. They froze at what they saw. Two naked people goofing around on a bed. What a sight that would be to an intruder.

And that intruder happened to be Natasha Ozera.
