(Jasmine living area)
Dimitri walked Jasmine's bedroom door. Reach up and knocking on the door. A few seconds later, The door opens slow to find the room dark. Hearing the song was Within Temptation - Let Us Burn come from her room. A young teenager peered around the door to see a pair of golden eyes staring at him and holding a bottle of Jack Daniels in black in her right hand. Dimitri could see Jasmine wearing a black crop top and pair of black underwear with hair not in french braids like always. Dimitri thought Jasmine looked sexy.
Dimitri said, "Drinking isn't going make it go away." Jasmine said, "No! But it makes me feel better. So what do you want?" Dimitri says, "I think we need to talk about what happening with you lately?" Jasmine said, "You been too busy with slut to even care about what is happening to me. Dimitri said, "I know that I failed you to help control your powers and emotions." Jasmine stepped back into the room and said Come in. Dimitri stepped into Jasmine's living area to find one light by the couch.
Dimitri stepped inside and close to Jasmine could smell a sweet scent coming from Jasmine. Dimitri grabbed the bottle from Jasmine and took a drink. Jasmine said, Now that my cowboy. Jasmine turns around walked away. Dimitri looked down at Jasmine's ass and could see it looked nice shape to it and walked in close the door.
Dimitri could see Jasmine's laptop sitting on the sofa and jacket on the back chair with black jeans. Dimitri said, "what are doing in here alone?" Jasmine said, "I been looking over your footage." Dimitri said, "did you found anything that good." Jasmine said, "like Tasha using compulsion on few times to make you do what she wants. Dimitri said, like what?" Jasmine said, "I take that you see what happen Tasha use compulsion you to make out with her or kiss her. "Dimitri was surprised that Tasha would compulsion him."
Dimitri said in loud yes! Jasmine sit down on the sofa and patted sit next to her. Dimitri smiled and walked sit down next to Jasmine.
Jasmine said, "You see what happen you go under compulsion. You get a glaze in your eyes. Too bad compulsion doesn't work on me. Dimitri said, "how do you know that compulsion doesn't work on you. Because Lissa tries to make forget. What happens with the strigoi three years ago and didn't work at all.
Dimitri said, "that might be a good thing that you can't be a compulsion. Unless someone is strong then Vasilisa with compulsion. Jasmine said, "maybe. Tasha reasons that she doesn't like me. She couldn't put me under her spell." Dimitri said, "maybe." Jasmine said, "be element is helping stop compulsion on me."
Dimitri said, "let watched the footage, and could Tasha was a compulsion to do as she, please. Dimitri grabbed Jasmine's bottle and took a big drink. Jasmine reached and patted Dimitri's arm. Dimitri said I'm so sorry that I was so blind not to see what she was doing. Jasmine reached up and patted his face. Saying now you seen what is happening you are not blind now. You just have to stay away from her. Besides, You really pissing Rose and me off.
Dimitri said, "Right now! Roza and Vasilisa are with Adrian Ivashkov. Jasmine said, "Oh! God No! Adrian is a spirit user like Vasilisa." Dimitri turns to Jasmine finding it surprising that Jasmine knew Adrian was a spirit user. Dimitri asked, How do you know that? Jasmine said, the first night here Rose and I meet him on the back porch. I saw that he shines like Vasilisa does. That tells me that he is a spirit user. Dimitri said Adrian knows that you have power. Jasmine frown to know that Adrian knew about her. Reaching overtaking the bottle and take a drink.
Jasmine said, "let take look and see what Rose is doing right now? Giving the computer in order and which to Rose video live feed. Dimitri could see Vasilisa leaning over Rose. Jasmine said, "Rosie drinks too much. What lightweight. When heard Adrian asked, "What'd you specialize in anyway, cousin?"
Dimitri said, "could found Rose and Vasilisa?" Jasmine giving the laptop and order going to the GPS program and found it hard to found them. Jasmine said that odd. They are here at the lodge. But I having a hard time finding them. It is like the signal is being bounded around making it hard to lock to them. Unless I go their back lodge of the video and see what they are seen. Dimitri said, "you can do that?" Jasmine said, "Yes! In storage, just in case something happens when I not watching."
Jasmine went back to Rose's live feed and could see and heard Adrian's voice talking to Rose. "Don't worry. I told you, I'm not interested in her in that way. She doesn't look as good in a bathing suit. Probably not as good out of one either." Dimitri's face turn hard and said, "I going to kill him." Jasmine giggled.
Jasmine said, "let keep watching and see what happens. Rose pull the arm away and said Well, you'll never find out. Jasmine said that my sissy. They heading to the lobby on the lodge right now.
Rose was talking to Mason and said he's got some kind of stupid crush on me." Rose have been convincing because Mason smiled. "Well. Hard not to." "I'm not interested in him," Rose continued. "Or anyone else. Dimitri's face fell. Jasmine said, "you know that she lye right." Dimitri said, "I hurt her."
Rose's hand was still on his arm, and I pulled him toward her. He didn't need much more of a signal. Mason leaned down and kissed Rose, and in the process, she found myself pressed up against the wall- very much like with Dimitri in the practice room. Dimitri's eyes glued to the screen watching Mason kissing Rose.
We could go ... somewhere," Rose said. Mason pushed back and laughed. "Not when you're drunk."
Dimitri's eyes looking at the screen and getting mad. Jasmine said Sissy is drunk. She doesn't know what she doing. Dimitri said I going to bust her ass tomorrow. Jasmine said, "you going to do give spanking?" Dimitri said, "I give something better than good spanking." Jasmine giggling.
Jasmine turns back to the bottle and found it empty. Jasmine said, "you drink it all." Dimitri said, Damn Right, I did. Jasmine put the bottle back on the coffee table. Dimitri said, "it's time for bed." Jasmine said, " Why?" Dimitri said, "You need sleep." Jasmine said, "I will sleep if you stay with me the whole night and don't leave me alone." Dimitri said, "I promies." Jasmine said, "If you break that promise. I get to kick you in balls twice. Dimitri looked at Jasmine and said, Alright! The whole night." Dimitri didn't want to kick in balls twice.
Jasmine turns off the laptop. Took Dimitri by the hand, and lead him into the bedroom. Dimitri could see that Jasmine was queen size with red and black sheets. Jasmine crowed in the bed. Dimitri could see Jasmine's ass and looked great. Making Dimitri bite his lip. Jasmine said, "Get nude! Dimitri looked, Jasmine and said, "I keeping boxers on." Jasmine said alright Cowboy. Dimitri started taking off his clothes coming to his boxer and clamed into bed with Jasmine.
Dimitri was middle and Jasmine put her head on his chest and arm around is waist. Dimitri could smell Jasmine scent and found it still sweet. Dimitri put his arm around Jasmine and pulled close. Closing his eyes and falling to sleep with Jasmine in arms.
(December 29)
Dimitri walking down the hallway. When seen Rose outside Adrian Ivashkov's room. Hearing Adrian's voice saying "Ladies, ladies, "No need to fight over me." Rose said, "we're not. I just want to know what's going on here." Dimitri started walking fast and he was going to found out what was going on.
"Dimitri said Me too."
Seeing Rose jumped and spinning around. Rose saw Dimitri standing in the hallway with hands-on-hips. She had no clue what he was doing in the Ivashkov wing. "Dimitri love it that he caught Rose off guard."
Dimitri was surprised to see Lissa in Adrian Ivashkov's room. Dimitri walked past Rose went inside the room. Started looking between Rose, Lissa and Adrian.
Dimitri said, "Male and female students aren't supposed to be in each other's rooms."
Rose said "How do you keep doing this?
Adrian said Do what?
Rose said Keep making us look bad!"
Adrian chuckled. "You guys are the ones who came here."
"Dimitri said You shouldn't have let them in. "I'm sure you know the rules at St. Vladimir's."
Adrian shrugged. "Yeah, but I don't have to follow any school's stupid rules." Besides we are not at St. Vladimir's academy. Dimitri said Perhaps not coldly. "But I would have thought you'd still respect those rules." Adrian rolled his eyes. "I'm kind of surprised to find you lecturing about underage girls."
Rose saw the anger kindle in Dimitri's eyes, and for a moment, she thought I might have seen the loss of control I'd teased him about. But he stayed composed, and only his clenched fists showed how angry he was.
"Besides," continued Adrian, "nothing sordid was going on. We were just hanging out. Dimitri said, "If you want to 'hang out with young girls, do it at one of the public areas." Adrian looked at Rose with a hunger eyes and said, "if think they're young. Then you need to get your eyes to check. Dimitri wants to punch Adrian right in the jaw for the way that he was looking at Rose. But he didn't.
Adrian laughed just then, a weird kind of laugh that made my skin crawl. "Young girls? Young girls? Sure. Young and old at the same time. They've barely seen anything in life, yet they've already seen too much. One's marked with life, and one's marked with death...As for Jasmine. She shine brighter like a Super Nova in darkness. But they're the ones you're worried about? Worry about yourself, dhampir. Worry about you, and worry about me. We're the ones who are young."
Dimitri could Lissa and Rose didn't understand what the hell Adrian was talking about. Which Dimitri thought someone taking a trip to crazy-town.
Dimitri watched Adrian as calm and looked perfectly normal again. He turned away and strolled toward the window, glancing casually back at the rest of us as he pulled out his cigarettes. Adrian said "You ladies should probably go. He's right. I am a bad influence." Wait! Want is going on outside?
Rose, Lissa, and Dimitri moved to the window. Looking out in the grounds. Lissa said" Oh! No! They playing Dodge Wars." Dimitri could see novices students hitting each other and knocking each other down. Rose said, "Shit! I bet Jasmine in middle of it." Dimitri thought that looked really fun.
Rose and Lissa followed Dimitri down the hall toward the lobby. Rose said That was...strange," Dimitri said Very. They both could tell that Dimitri was didn't sound angry so much as puzzled. When we reached the lobby.
Rosa asked going to watch Dodge Wars? Lissa said, "I don't understand why all think that would be fun hitting each other and kicking each other." Rose said help with training. We see the other team if they were strigoi and fight get threw them to our Moroi back.
"Rose," he said. "Can I talk to you?"Dimitri's voice That's Adrian Ivashkov." Rose said "Yeah, I know." "This is the third time I've seen you with him." "Rose said Yeah. "We hang out sometimes." Wait are you keeping tabs on me? Dimitri said Yes! It's a good thing that I do.
Dimitri arched an eyebrow, then jerked his head back toward where we'd come from. "You hang out in his room a lot?" "Rose said What happens between him and me is none of your business." Dimitri said Actually, as long as you're at the Academy, what you do is my business." Rose said not my personal life. You don't have any say in that." Dimitri said You're not an adult yet." Rose said I'm close enough. Besides, it's not like I'll magically become an adult on my eighteenth birthday." Dimitri said Clearly,"
Rose blushed. "That's not what I meant. I meant- "
Dimitri said I know what you meant. And the technicalities don't matter right now. You're an Academy student. I'm your instructor. It's my job to help you and to keep you safe. Being in the bedroom of someone like him ... well, that's not safe." Rose said. I can handle Adrian Ivashkov. "He's weird- really weird, apparently- but harmless."
Rose said Speaking of personal lives ... I suppose you were off visiting Tasha, huh? Dimitri said Actually, I was visiting your mother. Rose said You going to hook up with her too? "Dimitri was surprised that Rose would say something like that about their mother.
Dimitri said, "No, we were looking over some new data about the Strigoi in the Drozdov attack." Rose said What'd you find out?" Dimitri said We've managed to track some of the Strigoi. "Or at least the humans with them. There were witnesses and videotapes from the vinner. Jasmine was right. We did need to look at tapes.
The human that lived nearby spotted a few of the cars the group used. The plates were all from different states- the group appears to have split up, probably to make it harder for us. But one of the witnesses did catch one plate number. It's registered to an address in Spokane."
Rose said Spokane, Washington? Who makes Spokane their hideout?" Dimitri said Strigoi, apparently," The address was fake, but other evidence shows they really are there. There's a kind of shopping plaza that has some underground tunnels. There've been Strigoi sightings around that area."
Rose frowned. "Are you going to go after them? Is somebody going to? I mean, this is what Tasha's been saying all along... If we know where they are ..." Dimitri shook his head. "The guardians can't do anything without permission from higher up. That's not going to happen anytime soon."
Rose sighed. "Because the Moroi talk too much." Dimitri said they're being cautious," Rose said Come on. Even you can't want to be careful on this one. You actually know where Strigoi are hiding out. Strigoi who massacred children. Don't you want to go after them when they don't expect it?" Dimitri said It's not that easy. "We answer to the Guardian Council and the Moroi government. We can't just run off and act on impulse. And anyway, we don't know everything yet. You should never walk into any situation without knowing all the details."
Rose sighed. Her hand through my hair, tucking it behind my ears. Dimitri wants to touch Rose's hair and help with hair. Rose asked why'd you tell me this, anyway? This is guardian stuff. Not the kind of thing you let novices in on." Dimitri considered his words, and his expression softened. I've said a few things...the other day and today...that I shouldn't have. Things that insulted your age. You're seventeen...but you're capable of handling and processing the same things those much older than you do." You're still really young in a lot of ways- and act young- but the only way to really change that is to treat you like an adult. I need to do that more. I know you'll take this information and understand how important it is and keep it to yourself."
When Jasmine voice filled the air. I can't believe that Alberta rejected me from the game. Kim said, "you knocked out Stan." Jasmine said, "it not my fault. He shouldn't have been standing their." Rose started laughing to hear that Jasmine knocked out Stan. Dimitri said Dodge Wars hell of a game. Rose said you have no idea unless you play it.
Tasha Ozera walked up to us and said Dimka. She smiled when she saw me. "Hello, Rose. Rose voice wasn't happy to see Tasha. Tasha placed a hand on Dimitri's forearm, sliding her fingers over the leather of his coat. Dimitri could see Rose eyed angrily.
Tasha said "You've got that look. Dimitri said what look?" The stern look he'd worn with Rose vanished. There was a small, knowing smile on his lips. Almost a playful one.
Tasha said That look that says you're going to be on duty all day." Dimitri said Really? I have a look like that?" There was a teasing, mocking tone to his voice. She nodded. "When does your shift technically end?" Dimitri actually looked- I swear- sheepish. "An hour ago."
Jasmine walked up holding cup of coco without marshmallow and said Cowboy, Roza and Tasha. Dimitri could see Jasmine eyes was gold again. Rose notice that Tasha didn't speak Jasmine at all and didn't like it.
Jasmine turn and looked at Tasha. Dimitri looked at Jasmine. Dimitri said how was game out side? Jasmine said it fun until I get reject from game for knocking out Stan. Dimitri said one of the rules? Jasmine said Captain Alberta made some new rules for the game. After the fact! Rose giggle. Dimitri said Stan wasn't happy. Jasmine said I don't know I sent him to hospital wing. Dimitri started laughing. That my girl. Tasha said that game sound fun. Jasmine said, You could join and found out how fun it is. Rose said, "I think Tasha should join and found out how fun it is." Dimitri realized Rose and Jasmine was trying to Tasha hurt.
Tasha said, "You can't keep doing need a break." Jasmine looked at Dimitri and could see one Jasmine hand a small fire ball appeared. Dimitri said I can't right now. Knowing Jasmine could light Tasha ass on fire any giving second. Tasha turn to Rose and not looking at Jasmine saying I hope you realize what a hard-core role model you have here. He's never off duty." Rose said well for now, at least."
Tasha looked puzzled. I don't think it occurred to her I'd be making fun of her. Dimitri's dark eyes look told Rose. Dimitri knew exactly what Rose was doing. But the bigger problem was Jasmine. Dimitri said I need to speak with Jasmine about something really important. Tasha said Dimka! What wrong? Jasmine started breathing hard and fast. The lights started flicking on and off fast. Tasha said what going on? Rose said why don't stop asking dump questions and go found out.
Dimitri reached out grabbing Jasmine arm and started moving her way. Looking at the coco was boiling in the cup. Dimitri said in low voice, put it out and calm down. Jasmine started slowly breathing and counting.
Tasha said Dimka! What wrong? Dimitri said Tasha just stop. Dimitri seen fire went out and coco stop boiling in cup.
Jasmine said, "Tasha, will meet me for dinner tonight?" Tasha said, "I'm busy! Jasmine said, "Christian would like if we would get along. Because you are his own family and I am his best friend. It would only be the right meet for dinner. Dimitri and Rose looked at Jasmine couldn't understand what she doing.
Tasha said, Alright! Jasmine said, Good! Christian will be pleased. I will meet you at six in the lobby. We will go together to dinner. But right now, I need to take a nap. Before I blow up this lodge. Jasmine spins around and walking away from Tasha and Rose. Rose said, Tasha! Don't think about skipping out on my sister. Tasha looked at Rose and said, I wasn't planning on it.
Dimitri asked, What was that about? Jasmine said, Christian asked me to have dinner with Tasha to night to get alone with her. If she doesn't show she will wish that she had. Dimitri looked at Jasmine.
Jasmine said, Don't worry you are coming to dinner too.
(Dinner)
Dimitri knocked on Jasmine's bedroom door. Christian open the door and said, "Hello! Guardian Belikov. It is so nice to see you. So are you going with Jasmine to meet with Aunt Tasha?" Dimitri said, "Christian. Yes! Someone has to make sure that Jasmine doesn't kill Tasha.
Christian said, "Jasmine brings sweet ass out here." Vasilisa, Rose, and Jasmine walking out of Jasmine's bedroom. Jasmine was wearing a red sleeveless zipper A-Line party mini bodycon dress with red stilettos. Jasmine bangs pulled back with a gold pin. Jasmine's eyes were done giving them a smoke look with red lips stinks. Making both Christian and Dimitri dropped open at the sight of Jasmine. Dimitri thought Jasmine was a hot wearing dress.
Dimitri said, "Are you ready to go have dinner with Tasha?" Jasmine took a minute for herself, smiled, and said, Yes! Both Christian and Dimitri step back and thought what the hell. Jasmine walked up to Dimitri took him by the arm. Reach over close Christian mouth for him. Dimitri could see Jasmine was wearing her necklace around her neck. Dimitri and Jasmine started walking to the door. Rose said, "Don't forget second part of the bet?" Jasmine said, "Yes Rosie."
Dimitri walked out of Jasmine's bedroom, and Dimitri asked, "So you lost a bet?" Jasmine said, "Yes!" Dimitri asked, "What is the second part of the bet?" Jasmine said, "I have to be nice to Tasha. Dimitri looked at Jasmine and knew her friends trying to kill her.
Dimitri could see every Moroi and Dhampier man was staring at Jasmine. Dimitri kept Jasmine close to him and away from every man in this log cabin. Dimitri could Jasmine scent found it smell so sweet again. It started driving Dimitri into overdrive for Jasmine.
Jasmine and Dimitri reached the lobby. Not founding Tasha anywhere. They wait five whole minutes for Tasha didn't arrive. Jasmine said, "I knew it! She ditch me." Dimitri didn't like Tasha was treating Jasmine like trash. Jasmine walked over to the front desk. Jasmine asked, "the man working at the front desk to call up to Natasha Ozera's room and tell her Dinka is waiting for her in the Restaurant.
Dimitri thought it smart of Jasmine to tell her that he would like to have dinner with her. She will come running to him. Just to find out it was Jasmine who tricked her. Dimitri and Jasmine walked away from the lobby and started heading to the Restaurant.
(The Restaurant)
Tasha came walking into the Restaurant wearing Embellished Chiffon Gown in the color of light blue. Tasha thought Dimitri see a woman that could date. Tonight is going to be our night. Tasha came walking up to the table to discover Dimitri wasn't sitting alone. Tasha thought who is this whore with my Dinka. Not realizing it was Jasmine.
Tasha asked, Dinka! Who is this? Jasmine turns her head and discovering that it was Jasmine. Jasmine said, "It's is a pleasure that you join us for dinner. It's bad manner to keep your guests waiting."Tasha looked like Jasmine just slapped her across the face. Dimitri could see Jasmine was being in good manners.
Tasha could Jasmine was having honey garlic chicken wings with baked apples and Bacon Wrapped Stuffed Mushrooms. Dimitri was having chicken stack with baked potato and bake apples.
A witness, walking over to Jasmine's table with a glass of wine. The woman witness said, "This drink was sent over by the man at the bar for the young woman." Jasmine said, "Thank you!" Dimitri looked at the line of guys at the bar and said, "Which one?" The witness said, The man in coal coat and jade eyes. Jasmine said, "Adrian Ivashkov." Dimitri reached taking a drink of the glass, put the empty glass on her tray and thank him for Guardian Belikov.
Dimitri turn Tasha said, "Tasha please have seat. I feel that we need to speak about actions with Jasmine. Tasha sat down next to Dimitri and said, Alright! Dinka.
Dimitri said, Earlier today, Jasmine asked you for dinner. Christian thought would be nice that his own family and his best friend would get along. But your actions to Jasmine haven't been pleasant at all. Tonight you plan to ditch Jasmine. But you jump when you thought it was me calling you for dinner. That tell me that you don't have any respect for my students or me. Tasha said, Students?" Dimitri said, Rose, Jasmine Hathaway and I am their mentor.
Don't respect again or this will last time speak you again.
Tasha looked into Dimitri eyes again started use compel on him again. Jasmine kicked Dimitri in the knee making break the compel with Tasha. Dimitri said, that hurt! Tasha turn looked at Jasmine in the eyes. Tasha tried us compel on Jasmine. Jasmine said, "Did you think that was going to work on Natasha Ozera?" Tasha looked surprise when Jasmine didn't fell under control at all and Jasmine eyes turn gold. Dimitri said, "Tasha!"
Dimitri said, "Jasmine was right Tasha do you compel people to get her way with people. You win the bet." Handing Jasmine ten dollars. Jasmine said, "Thank you!" Tasha turns Dimitri's founding surprise that Jasmine knew about her using compelled on people. Tasha said, Dimka please forgive me Dimka. Dimitri hands Jasmine any ten dollars. Jasmine said, Thank you!
