I love you all! I know i'm updating so early! i wish i could update everyday!
Anyways here's the next chapter!
Disclaimer: I do not own Vampire Academy or the Charcters, i only own the plot, and Anastasia, Aiden and Kristina.
oh one more thing! My birthdays in exactly a month! :D
I'm back at court from my honeymoon in Russia. All the stress rushing back to me, Yeva's statement 'You will find what you're looking for, but as soon as it's out it is gone.' What the hell is that supposed to mean! Kristina. It's not every day you are able to have children with a Dhampir and they turn out to be human with the element Spirit.
While I was gone Eddie, Mia, and Anastasia have been reading through Anna's diary and any book about Vladimir and Anna's child. Adrian and Victoria have been watching over the twins. Lissa has been helping out on her free time, the best she can. Getting the books, making charmed objects for Adrian and for me lately, just in case. Adrian also got her to make a few for Kristina he said he has been seeing the darkness around her, Lissa has seen it as well. She has also looked for information over the computer. She waited for me to come back to read through the diary.
Right now were on page 10. Lying across her bed with my elbows propped up and my face in my hands. She was re-reading a paragraph that we had just read.
'I ran as fast as I could, grabbing onto Williams arm, dragging him with me. He cried as I was ripped from him. The Strigoi had caught me. I wasn't ready to face him, I thought he had died. Well technically he had, but he came back, starring into those deep red eyes, that use to be a light blue, lay Vladimir, my secret husband and lover. Father of my child, it hurt to see him like this, I couldn't. But I also couldn't die. Leaving my child stranded, nowhere to go, in danger from the Strigoi. I made my body go limp. Vladimir didn't expect me to do that, he expected me to fight. He hesitated and that's all I needed. I grabbed my stake and jabbed it into his heart, piercing it forever. He whispered ever so lightly.
"I love you. Tha..n..k..y..ou." Before he dropped me. Lying their lifeless, eyes opened wide starring at nothing. I let the tears fall freely, sobbing slightly. My body shook. William ran up to me wrapping his arms around me, trying to soothe me.'
Vladimir had been turned Strigoi. I assume not by choice. He had Anna to stop him from craziness. He also had a son, he wouldn't turn by choice when he had a family.
'I was losing control, hitting anything that got in my way. I couldn't handle it, it was getting to strong to handle. William came up to me placing his hands on my temples. Murmuring something softly in a language I don't know, hell it didn't even sound like a real language. Slowly the darkness started to fade. I thanked him lightly, no answer. I turn around to a shaking son. I didn't know what was happening. But then it clicked, he had taken the darkness from me. I went to get up to help him. But he opened his mouth. My eyes store into his, they changed, did they get bigger? Smaller? Maybe even darker? I couldn't tell. In a clear and loud voice he spoke, sounding way older than four.
"Do not move." My feet stopped listening to every command. Shit. She can use compulsion and it's strong, I'm able to get passed compulsion since I am shadow kissed. Spirit users can almost pass the breaking point but not completely. But William, there's no point in trying to fight it, it's to strong. Especially for a four year old.
I watched in horror as my child shook violently, there's a chance that he may die, just watching him trying to push passed the darkness, it's too much for my baby. Oh please, Lord do not do this to me! I begged and begged to a God I didn't even believe in. That's when he fell. I was let out of the trance. I ran over to William catching him before he fell onto the ground. I checked his pulse, it was low. My cheeks felt wet, and I sobbed once again.
I looked over at Lissa to see that her eyes were watery, but William couldn't be dead. I mean were so close to finding out what's up with my little baby. One thing is that Kristina takes my darkness away from me. I don't want that, I don't want my child to have to go through that, having to deal with that at such a young age. What if she were to compel me, I wouldn't be able to stop her.
"Rose?" Lissa asked. I noticed that she has been calling my name for a while now.
"Are you alright?"
"I'm fine." I gave her a smile, she left it alone and continued with the reading. But she just starred at the page not really seeing anything.
"Hey, Liss." I said waving a hand in front of her face.
"i-I." More tears came freely down her cheek, running down like a waterfall. I took her in my arms comforting her. I let her tears stain my shirt, i need to get a new one anyways.
I was a bit angry that she was the one crying, I'm the one with the problems. I mentally slapped myself. She's Queen, she has her own stress to handle. I shouldn't judge her, just suspecting that nothing's wrong, I'm supposed to be her friend and guardian.
"Lissa, Ssh, it's alright." I said trying to calm her down.
"We should stop reading now, continue tomorrow?" I asked her once she had calmed down.
"Yes." She said in a whisper."
A couple hours later
"Thank you Eddie, Mia and Anastasia, I appreciate all that you have down for me. You have no idea how good a friend you all are."
"No problem, Rosie. I'm glad you think of me like that." Christian said, walking in with a smirk plastered on his face.
"if only I was talking about you, dear Sparky."
"I know you were, I bet you dream about me at night, I know that you love me."
"Sparky, I've almost had virtual sex with you since Lissa had sucked me into her head. By the way, you are tiny, and are as bouncy as a rabbit." I said shaking my head. I look over to see Mia trying to hold in her laughter; Eddie had slipped, laughing his ass off. And Anastasia, well I would say she was rolling around the floor. I didn't think it was that funny but whatever, I thought, shrugging my shoulders.
I walked away leaving my friends behind me in their fits of laughter, and an open mouthed Christian. I got back to my room. Kristina and Aiden sitting down in the living room, playing together with Adrian and Viktoria. They looked so cute.
"Hey Rose!" Viktoria screeched jumping off of the ground and crushing me in a tight hug.
"Vi..ktoria…cant, breath.." She jumped back placing her hands by her sides.
"Sorry." I walked over to Kristina, picking her up and wrapping her in my arms.
"I'fe missed you wittle girl." I said in a baby voice. Adrian chuckled.
"What about me?" he said opening up his arms.
"No, not really." His arms dropped and a big frown ran across his face.
"I'm joking!" I said running into his arms, Kristina in the middle of us.
"Good, how was your honeymoon, little Dhampir?"
"Well, ok I guess." I told him and Viktoria about what Dimitri had down and then when I got him back with salt water, they started to laugh. Hard. Once I told them that.
"nice, going, little Dhampir." Adrian said in-between laughs.
Viktoria and Adrian had left, again they had tired the twins out, leaving them fast asleep on the couch, snuggling up next to each other.
I felt two strong arms wrap around me. I jumped. I hadn't heard him walk in. I turned around and gave him a quick peek.
"I'm gonna go put the kids to bed." He unwrapped his arms from around me. I picked up Aiden while Dimitri picked up Kristina. We brought them to their cribs and placed them down. We met up in the hall, after putting the kids to bed.
"Have you still been feeling like someone has been watching you?"
"Not as much, but once in a while when I'm outside, yes."
Dimitri pulled me into his arms.
"You're going to be alright, I won't let anything happen to you or our children."
"I know….You know what Yeva said…"
"mhm.."
"Do you have any idea what she was talking about."
He looked at me, trying to find something through my eyes. He found it.
"No." He said, sighing.
"You will find what you're looking for…I am looking for something…Kristina! I'm trying to find how she's human, I know that she can use compulsion and take the darkness away, but there must be more….but once it's out it is gone…what the hell does that mean, once it's out…once what's out…and then it's gone…" I trailed off, mainly talking to myself.
"Damn, if Yeva would maybe just explain it a bit more!"
"She says what is needed at the time, too much about the future can ruin it, She has told you what you need to know for now." I groaned.
"It's so frustrating, how could my life get any worse." I mumbled.
"It's not that bad, is it?" Dimitri asked.
"No, I guess not, but the only good part is you and the kids." Dimitri smiled.
"I'm so lucky to have you." He said brushing a piece of hair back that had fallen in front of my face.
"No." I said shaking my head. "I'm the one that got lucky here."
Dimitri and I made out for about half an hour.
"I'm gonna go on a jog."
"Alright, stay safe."
"I will. I'll be back in 20 minutes."
"I love you."
"I love you my Roza." I kissed him on the lips quickly and got changed for my jog. I ran out the door, stepping outside, it was windy, and light. Night time for the Moroi. I ran over to the track and started to run my laps. While I was running I heard a ruffle from a bush. My head snapped over to it, stopping dead in my tracks. The bush was moving lightly, probably just from the wind. I shook it off. But I still had that feeling that someone is watching me, and it's getting stronger.
I ran and ran, on my tenth lap now. Getting faster the more I felt like I was being watched. It grew and grew as I ran. I finally came to my 30th lap, slowing down slightly, into a jog. I made my way back to my room. But I was stopped by someone calling my name.
"Rosemarie!" I jumped about 10 feet in the air. I spun around to see Anastasia running up to me.
"Hey Anastasia, what's up?"
"Nothing, I just came to ask you what was wrong, you were watching every angel out there."
"Isn't that what were supposed to do, we are guardians."
"Well, yah, but not like that..."
"I know…can we just talk about it some other time."
"Oh sorry, of course." She hugged me quickly, and then took off. I again tried walking back to my room, not wanting to be interrupted again.
Thankfully I wasn't, I made it home with just the wind whistling in the air and the background noise of peoples whispers. I opened up my door, making it creak when the lights turned on and everyone popped up from any corner in this house screaming surprise.
"What? It's not even my birthday." I said with my mouth hanging open.
"Yes, but can't we just have a surprise party, for a special friend?" Lissa asked.
"I guess." I looked around the room. "Is their donuts?" Everyone laughed and as in everyone. Anastasia, Adrian, Mia, Eddie, Christian, Dimitri, Lissa, Janine, Abe, Aiden and Kristina.( which were being held by Janine and Abe)
"So is there, it's not a real party without my donuts!"
"Yes there is Rosie." Christian said, laughing.
"Well, then let's dig in!" I grabbed 2 chocolate glazed donuts from the kitchen and scarfed them down. That night we had music going on, dancing, food, drinks, no kissing because the Kidde's were in the room. When they went to bed we did play a round of truth or dare.
"Eddie, truth or dare." I asked.
"Umm, truth."
"Have you ever had sex with Mia." He started to blush a deep red colour.
"Answer the question." I looked over at Mia to see her face red as well.
"Yes." He said quietly.
"Sorry what was that, I couldn't hear it."
"YES!" i burst out laughing.
"Now Rose, truth or dare."
I didn't even have to think about it
"Dare."
"I dare you to strip down to your bra and underwear and run down the hall way yelling you just had sex. Make sure you damp your hair." I glared at him. I walked over to the bathroom stripped down and wet my hair. I messed my hair up with my hands to make it even more convincing. Grinning I walk out of the bathroom. All the guys' mouths dropped. I walked to the door and stepped out into the hall way. Eddie came out to follow me. He pulled me along a hallway, where most of the royals lived.
"I'll just be over there." Eddie said pointing to the door. "Have fun." He said with a grin. Here I go. I started running down the hall way yelling. "I just had sex!" I heard a couple yells from inside the rooms, and then laughs… Some people even stepped out of their rooms' video tapping and watching me. I finished up running back to my room. I was flushed. The whole court will soon see that, probably even the whole Vampire world will now see that. We finished up our game and then everyone left, leaving just me Dimitri and the twins. The twins were thankfully still fast asleep in their cribs. Dimitri and I went to bed. Me forgetting anything that had happened today. Yeva's statement, Kristina having to deal with the darkness, feeling like someone was watching me. I fell asleep peacefully, for once.
So what did you guys think about this chapter. love it? hate it?
