The Eyes of Heavenly Fire
Chapter 15
Dimitri gave Rose a light kiss on the lips as he vanished so her parents wouldn't notice his presence. He hoped her parents were past out again. She had been through too much today to deal with shit like that.
Unfortunately, luck wasn't on their side as Rose stepped in and received a slap on the face from her mother. The stench of alcohol was on her breath.
"Where the hell have you been?" Her mother spat.
"With a friend." Rose said as her father came in.
"You sure look good that boy must have been fucking you right."
"I don't kn ow what you're talking about." Rose said gritting her teeth.
"You know exactly what I mean you tramp. It must have felt good to finally have a guys dick in you."
"Stop it. Dimitri's not like that."
"Every guy is like that."
"He's not like other guys." Rose spat.
"Bullshit."
"We haven't slept together."
Her father slapped her hard and Dimitri had to fight to stay still. They weren't really hurting her yet.
"Don't talk to me like that little girl. I can tell a guy has been fucking you."
"Shut up!"
A fist came flying towards Rose and she fell to the ground. Dimitri's anger finally got the best of him as he tossed Rose's father backwards into the table made of glass and full of beer bottles. Rose's mother grabbed her by the roots of her hair and Dimitri jumped into Rose's body to knock her out. She feel down to the floor as he exited Rose's body.
"Did you kill them?" Rose screamed as Dimitri reappeared.
"No I just knocked them out. Come on. You don't want to be here when they wake up."
Rose nodded and followed Dimitri to his motorcycle.
"How did you jump into my body?"
"I just did. I don't know how to happen."
They climbed on the back.
"I'll examine your wounds when we get home."
She nodded as he put the bike in gear. Once they got to the house. He helped her off.
"Can we sleep half naked again?"
"Sure." he said.
They got inside where Dimitri chanted the protection spell and they went up to his room. Rose went to the bed and crossed her legs.
"When will this all stop?" she cried.
The stress of the day must have finally got to her. He sat down beside her and frowned.
"It will continue for a year or so. If I can keep you safe for that long then the curse is broken."
"I'm sorry if I took you from having a life you could actually enjoy."
"You are my life."
"Will you please stop saying that."
"It's nothing but true."
Before she could answer he kissed her. She was reluctant at first then she decided to stop fighting him and fall into the kiss. That's when he felt her sadness. What happened to Mia was still bothering her. He sighed and leaned back.
"I'm sorry that it's still bothering me."
"I can go check on her if you'd like."
"What about the fallen?"
"The protection spell is set and you still have your necklace."
"What does it do?"
"Hopefully you'll never have to find out. It's only for dire emergencies. I still have some things I need to do."
"Hurry back."
"I'll try."
Dimitri settled with the transportation spell and made himself transport to the hospital. Mia laid in a bed with a broken leg, but besides that she was okay and wide awake. He found himself smiling that she was okay when Adrian walked in.
"Finally. Am I being released yet?"
"You just got hit by a car and you're wondering when they're going to release you."
"This stuff never fazes me Adrian."
"You're not superwoman Mia."
"Just tell me what I want to know."
"They want to keep you for another week."
"Shit. You know I hate hospitals."
"And I hate you bitching about hospitals."
Mia laughed and he transported himself back to the house.
"Rose." he said noticing that she wasn't in the bed anymore.
"I'm in here."
He moved to the living room and saw her stretched out on the couch watching a movie.
"How is she?"
"She made it out with only a broken leg."
"Thank God. She was very lucky that the car didn't do anymore damage to her. I could of sworn that impact would have killed anyone."
He smiled sitting down beside her.
"Will you tell me more about my necklace?"
"It's an angel's personal secret. I couldn't tell you even if I wanted to."
Rose sighed and leaned into him.
"You have so many secrets and yet I feel safe with you."
"Angels tend to have that trait."
She smiled and pecked his lips. They stayed on the couch for another hour before finally drifting off to sleep.
