6) Blood

POV: Dimitri

"Dimitri...?"

"Yes, Christian?"

"Can you come with me to the feeders?"

"Yeah, let's go."

We walked out of his and Lissa's apartment and headed towards the feeders' building. I could understand why Christian was so hesitant to ask me to go to the feeders.

Blood.

I still had nightmares about that certain time period when I was an evil creature of the night.

A Strigoi.

I was getting better, thanks to Rose, but I still saw the faces of the innocents I killed.

I still felt their pain as I was drinking their blood. I knew that it wasn't my fault (technically), but it still haunted me.

"Dimitri!"

"Huh?" I asked, looking around.

"We're here. I need you to walk so you can guard me...and walking requires the person to tell their legs to move," said Christian, smirking.

"Oh, sorry. You know what this place does," I whispered, following him. We entered the feeding room and since Christian was the Queen's boyfriend, he just got to go to a feeder.

"Yeah, sorry. You might wanna look away," Christian warned before he bit into a feeder's neck. I did look away, not wanting to relive my memories...again.

When he was done, he wiped the blood away and we left.

I might still have nightmares about blood, but blood was part of us, so I might as well get used to it...
