AN: Thank you everyone for reviewing :) ok so I forgot Sydney mom was Oskena not Olena so last chapter I made a mistake. Here is another chapter I hope all of you will enjoy, I wrote it really fast I just had no time.
Disclaimers I don't own Vampire Academy or the characters, Richelle Mead does.
Chapter 18
I woke up by something moving on the bed. I still had my arm around Ivan, so it's not Ivan. I opened my eyes to see a really large figure sitting on the bed. I opened my eyes more and saw it was Dimitri. He had his back toward me.
I have been wanting to see him. But I guess he was mad at me. He had the right to be mad with me. I left him with the kids all alone without telling him. He didn't deserve it but I had to. I had no other option. I guess life was just not fair. You realize the mistakes after you have caused the damage and wish you could reverse it all back.
"How are you feeling now?" He asked.
"Better." I said to him. He turned around and looked at me. Our eyes met and a lot of thing passed through. I could just read him with his eyes. He was hurt, sad, and happy. I felt guilty for doing this to him now. I sat up on the bed and leaned in the head bored.
"Roza It's ok what you did you had reasons for it and I am sure you would not do anything if was not for our safety. I am just glad you are ok and you are with me." He said and I just looked at him. I did not expect for him to act like this. I thought he was going to get mad and yell at me. I just looked down and played with my hands.
"But what I did was not acceptable." I said. He just took his shoes off and leaned his back in the head bored to.
"Yes, it's not. I am not happy about it but worse could have happened to you. I cannot think about living without you, and I almost lost you. You did what you had to. And I am not going to waste time here fighting with you. For me all that matters is that you are alive, safe and with me now." He said. I just crawled up to him making sure I was not in Ivan's way and I wrapped arms around his neck and snuggled my head his chest. He held me in his arms like a baby.
"I missed you." I said to him.
"I missed you to," he said and kissed my crown. It was always so easy to talk to him. He always understood me. Now I even fell bad for doing this to him.
"I am sorry." I said to him and looked up at him he looked down to me and said,
"It's ok, but please don't ever do this with me. I can't live without you. There is anything, we will both find a way out of it together but not like this," he said to me and kissed my forehead.
"I know, I cant do this all alone." I said to him. I really do need him buy my side. I just placed my head on his chest again and he tighten his hold on me. It felt so good here in his arms. I just never want this moment to end. I looked up at Ivan. He once didn't wake up tonight. Why? He always use to wake up every night and cry.
"How come Ivan is so joyful now?" I asked Dimitri.
"Adrian is helping him." He said.
"With what?" I asked and looked up at him.
"Roza was there anytime Ivan died and you healed him?" he asked. What? Is he serious?
"No, and I would have told you. But why are you asking?" I asked him.
"Roza, Ivan is shadow kissed with you. We believe that during the time of labour he died and your body healed him. You take a lot of darkness away from me and you have your own darkness built up, so Ivan takes that away from us. So thats what has been hunting him. The darkness is to much for him to take in." he finished. How is this possible?
"How come we never found out about this?" I asked him.
"Because both of us blocked a lot of stuff from spirit and we both never paid to much attention to this we never thought it was possible and both of us thought it was Nikolai who was doing this to him." He said. He was right, but about Nikolai he is not. I should tell him now. I should not keep any more secrets between us.
"It was never Nikolai." I said to him.
"What do you mean?" he asked and raised his eyebrow at me? This is so not going to end well.
"Nikolai has been using my magic. I don't know how he does it but he uses my magic all the time." I said to him and the look on his face changed. He looked angry now.
"How come you never told me this?" he yelled.
"I am sorry but when I found out it was already at a point where I was hiding a lot of stuff from you. I didn't know how he was using it. I thought it was just better not to tell you." I said. He signed and said,
"Rose you cant keep hiding stuff like this. It's not about you or me. It's about us. We are a family," he said. He was right but I just couldn't tell him.
"I am just scared." I said to him.
"Roza you don't have to be scared. I am with you in everything. I wont let anything happen to you or anyone," he said.
"I know you wont but I just couldn't tell you." I said to him.
"Roza you can tell me anything we can sit and talk about it and find a way. Please promise me you wont hide anything from me from now on," he said to me. I just nodded to him and placed my head on his chest. I fell asleep again in his arms.
I woke up by someone jumping on the bed. I looked up and saw Ivan jumping up and down on the bed. It brought a smile on my face. He was just looking adorable. Dimitri was still asleep he had his arm on me. Well, thats what I thought.
"Good morning Roza," Dimitri said.
"Good morning Comrade," I said to him.
"Moma, Dada!" Ivan yelled and jumped on us. But Dimitri held him before he could fall on us.
"You are up already?" Dimitri asked him and started to tickle him. Ivan started laughing. This was just bliss. I would love to wake up every morning like this. Without any fears just joy and happiness.
We all stayed in the bed like that for about an hour just playing with Ivan. We got up and got ready. I gave Ivan a shower and dressed him up in blue jeans and white button down shirt, which looked really cute on him. I got ready after that and we all went out. Everyone was already there for breakfast.
"We are glad both of you made up." Mia said to us. I smiled at her. I think I owe them all an apology to.
"I am really sorry guys." I said to them. They all just nodded conforming they were ok. We all ate Oskena's delicious breakfast that she cooked for us. After we helped her clearing the table and washing the dishes we went to sit in the sitting area. Oskena left do some groceries and babushka went to her room.
No one really talked to each other. This was really awkward. Roza we have to do something. Dimitri said through the bond
I know we have to but what? I asked
They are like this because of us, we have to fix it. He said, he was right. They changed because of us.
Dimitri why is Sydney glaring at you? I asked him when I noticed her giving Dimitri a death glare.
That reminds me of something that I have to do. He said.
What? I asked him.
Just go with I am going to do. He said and got up from there and went where Ivan was I looked at him and he pinched Ivan. What the fuck? Ivan started crying. Dimitri why would you that? I yelled at him in the head and went to Ivan and hugged him. Adrian was giving Dimitri the weirdest look because he saw what Dimitri did to Ivan.
"What's wrong with him?" Mason asked.
"Something is wrong with his bond mate." Dimitri said and both Adrian and I glared at Dimitri what was he on about?
"What bond mate?" Natalie asked.
"Ivan has a bond mate he brought someone back to life. And it's either Jesse or Eddie." Dimitri said and I was just glaring at him.
"So what does this means?" Sydney asked getting worried.
"That means that Jesse and Eddie are in danger." Dimitri said looking at everyone in the room. Ivan stopped crying.
"How do you know that?" Mia asked.
"Because of Ivan he can sense if something is wrong with his bond mate, I don't know what these two are up to." Dimitri said and again tried to look at everyone. Both Adrian and I were giving Dimitri what the fuck look. He made Ivan cry and now he was lying.
Dimitri got frustrated and walked in to the room. I picked Ivan up and followed him and Adrian was also behind me. When I got in the room, I asked him,
"What the hell Dimitri? First you pinched Ivan and then you lied."
"Why would you do that?" Adrian asked.
"Because one of them know what Jesse and Christian are planing." He said.
"What?" Both Adrian and I yelled.
"Yes, Jesse and Eddie are with Christian. Eddie really doesn't know what they are up to." Dimitri said.
"What do you mean Eddie doesn't know anything?" Adrian asked.
"Have you been in contact with Eddie?" I asked him. Dimitri looked at both of us and the said,
"Yes, I have been in contact with Eddie. I contacted him a week before they left. I was gonna come back at court. After that we didn't talk until he called me up when we got here. He told me that they were in Australia with Christian. He does not know what Jesse and Christian are unto. He said he thought it was best to call me. He told me that someone in the gang knows but he does not know who it is." Dimitri said.
"And you never bother on telling?" Adrian asked.
"How was I supposed to? He told me it's someone and he does not know who it is. I could not come up to all of you say ok guys who is the one helping Jesse and Christian." Dimitri said and he was right.
"So we go to Australia after them?" I asked.
"No, they are already in Russia now," he said.
"Where are they?" Adrian asked.
"I don't know. I am waiting for Eddie to call me. He said he will call me when he can." Dimitri said.
"So who could be it from the gang?" Adrian questioned.
"Sydney?" I said, she could be, knowing she is Jesse's wife.
"No, it's not her." Dimitri said.
"How do you know?" Adrian questioned.
"Because she snapped at me yesterday asking me where Jesse is she thought I knew where he is, I don't know how she figured out I knew." Dimitri said.
"If it's not Sydney then who could it be?" I asked.
"I don't know it can be anyone." Dimitri said.
"It can be Adrian to." I said to piss Adrian off, I know its not him but I wanted to joke with him.
"Wow hold on there, I have to many other things on my plate then go plan something with a crazy Strigoi who was once part of our gang." Adrian said.
"Relax Adrian I was just joking." I said to him. Ivan was now sleeping in my arms. I placed him on the bed. I think I should tell them.
"Guys I know how to turn back a Strigoi." I said.
"What?" Adrian asked.
"You heard me right I know how to turn a Strigoi back. And in order to get Nikolai back we have to turn Christian back." I said.
"Eddie told me the same he knows how to turn a Strigoi back but he need a healing spirit user to do that so only Rose and I can do." Dimitri said.
"How would you do that?" Adrian questioned.
"I would tell you how we will do that later but right now we have to get to the museum, to get the stake before Adrik gets it." I said.
"I can arrange that." Adrian said. And the there was a knock on the door. I went to open it and saw Maya standing there.
"Can I come in?" She asked and I moved aside so she could come in. I closed the door behind.
"I thought I can help." She said.
"What can you help us with?" Dimitri asked.
"Rose remember I told you about that I know some bit of the prophecy," she said and I nodded.
"I thought you can do with some more information." She said.
"What is it?" I asked and she handed me a paper. I opened it up and started reading aloud,
Once the life has been brought to the world, there would be a war that would break. Blood will be shed and loved ones will be lost. Enemies will become allies to help with the war. Both chosen one would have to make sacrifice before the time runs out.
I just looked at all of them and ask,
"What does this means?"
"Rose there is going to be a big war between Strigoi and Moroi well I would say all of you in the gang. Enemies are supposed to help and I don't know who that would be. And something you have to sacrifice." Maya said.
"How do you know all of this?" Adrian asked. She turned around and looked at him.
"If you don't remember I am about two hundred years old. And my mom was a Moroi and father was a Strigoi and all my life I have lived with Strigoi and Strigoi are waiting for this especially Igor Zahkar." She said.
"Who is he?" I asked.
"He is the most powerful Strigoi well after Adrik. He is more then seven hundred years old. He has been living from the time this prophecy was made. It was way back in the years when the Strigoi were teaming up and killing all the Moroi. At that time someone wrote this, your future. That person believed that you guys will come and free the world from Strigoi and Igor he has been waiting for that to happen." Maya said.
"And before you ask me how I know this, all Strigoi are waiting. Each and every strigoi know about Igor, since he has been living for so long he is really power full," she finished and this got me thinking now. I was not listening to her anymore. I know about the sacrifice that both Dimitri and I have to make but I don't know who the enemy is and would become friend. Who?
All of us just sat there trying to really figure it out what it meant. We were in the room for to long, everyone would start wondering what we are up to. So we made a plan that we will work on this after and right now just go for the stake. Adrian made some phone calls and ranged for us to get to the museum when its close. This was our first mission then we will work on the rest.
We all walked out to the sitting area where everyone was. They gave us the look 'what the hell you guys were on about'
"So guys we are going to go to the museum and get the stake." I said.
"Ok, when?" Mason asked.
"Today," Dimitri said and we explained the plan. Mason, Maya, Sydney, Dimitri and I will go and the rest of them will stay back here. All of us, was going to be a problem so we decided all the Moroi will stay back except Dimitri. We got ready and got in the car and drove off to the museum which was about an hour away from here.
AN: So how was it? I know a lot of you wanted me to get them together soon and I did not want them to fight. I have done that so many times both them fight. This time I wanted things to go calm with them. So what do you guys think? Please comment!
