Chapter 8-

Rose nearly ran us into the cafeteria. As soon as we arrived she headed to the line. "I really hope they have donuts today," she said. I gave her a curious glance and smiled. Lissa who saw the look on my face laughed. "Rose is big on greasy, sugary, fatty, buttery…well, anything that ends in RY pertaining to food."

"OOOOOOHHHH DONUTS!!!," Rose squealed. She loaded her plate with them and a few pieces of bacon. I grabbed a bowl of fruit and a yogurt and went to join Rose at the table. A few minutes later when Christian and Lissa didn't join us I looked around. They were nowhere in sight. "Where did the lovers run off to?" I asked.

"Feeders," Rose replied no realizing I had no idea what a feeder was. She looked up at me. "Oh umm… I am so not going to be the one to show you what a feeder is."

"I don't even know what a feeder is," I told her a little annoyed that she wouldn't just tell me. She sat staring at me for what seemed like forever.

"Hello little Dhampir," came a voice from behind me. Rose looked up and rolled her eyes. I turned around to look at the most beautiful man I had ever seen. He was pretty tall and somewhat built. Kind of like the perfect male model might look like. His brown hair was styled into a messy, I just rolled out of bed look, when it actually probably took him quite some time to style it that way. I think I even saw some honey highlights. He had beautiful blue eyes that shone like the stars in the night sky. He looked to be a few years older than me, but right now I could care less.

"Well, who do we have here?" he asked looking down at me with a happy smile plastered on his face.

"Sam Martin, this is Adrian Ivashkov or I like to call him my annoying pain in the ass or on other days, stalker boy. Stalker boy pain in the ass, this is Sam Martin," Rose said pointing her fork between the two of us. Adrian sat down looking me over. "So, you are the human that I have heard so much about. It is an honor to meet you my dear." I could feel myself blush as he took my hand and kissed it.

"Oh God Sam, you need to go wash that filth off your hand now before it falls off. You have no idea how many girls he has kissed on," Rose said grinning evilly.

Adrian gave her a mock hurt look and slapped his hand to his heart. "Oh my dear Rose bud, you have offended me so. You know that no girl will ever steal me away from you. You are my only dream my sweet Rose."

"Yeah, that's exactly the problem. I'm your only dream. Can't you stalk someone else for a while. Let me have a peaceful night sleep for a while?" she asked dryly.

By this point I was laughing pretty hard at the two of them bantering with each other. I couldn't help it. I could see that Adrian had a huge thing for Rose, but Rose had no feeling for Adrian except for annoyance.

"Well, I can see where my presence isn't wanted," Adrian said getting up. "I'm going to the feeders. I will see you both later. Sam it was a pleasure to meet you."

Rose looked up at him. "You're going to the feeders?"

"Yes, my dear I am. Would you like to join me?" Adrian winked at Rose and she made some puking noises off the side of our table.

"No, but Sam needs to know what a feeder is, and I was thinking you could show her."

"I'm not so sure that Sam is ready to find out about the feeders," Adrian said looking at me. "Perhaps we can give her a few more days to adjust to our existence before we scar her for life."

I looked between the two of them trying to figure it out. Then it hit me. Feeders, Oh my God. "They are the people who give you blood, aren't they?" I asked.

Adrian and rose both looked over at me and nodded. I didn't want to be all weirded out by it and I was going to have to see it one day. I mean this is my life now. I got up and grabbed Adrian by the hand. "Well Roses pain in the ass, looks like you have some company to the feeders today," I said. I looked over at Rose who had a worried expression on her face. She nodded at me and I turned and followed Adrian towards another room just off of the main cafeteria. From behind us I could hear Rose complain. "Damn it Ivashkov now my donuts are cold." The next think I know Adrian was being pelted with a donut. She shook his head and laughed. "Oh, that's why I love her so," he said a little wistfully.

It was only then that I noticed everyone staring at me. As we walked towards the room, I heard some people whispering to each other. "Looks like the new girls off to a good start. Looks like she is going to be Lord Ivashkovs blood whore," I heard coming from a girl to my left. "Oh my God, I cannot believe they would let her in. The guardians must be desperate. From the looks of it, she's going to be on the fast track to being a blood whore anyways," I heard from another group. I looked up at Adrian who seemed to not have heard a thing. He just looked down and me and smiled. I gave him a nervous smile back and began wishing I had just stayed put.

Adrian opened the door for me and I stopped for a moment and looked at him. "It's really not as bad as you think it might be. But if you don't think you want to see this, its okay," he said with a smile. I shook my head and walked in. "I've got to see it sooner or later so I may as well do it now while I'm pretty sure it can't cause any more damage to my psyche as it all ready has." Adrian laughed and walked in behind me. "Sam Martin, I do believe you and I are going to get along wonderfully. I smiled and took a seat while he signed in. I couldn't get the blood whore comment out of my mind. I had a feeling it had to do with giving blood, but I just couldn't figure out why people would say that. They didn't even know me. I started to feel a little self conscious so I zipped my hoodie up to try and hide my extra fluffiness from everyone. I know it really didn't hide it, but still, it made me feel better.

A few moments later Adrian returned and gave me a funny look. He studied me for a minute and then sat down beside me. "What's the matter, Sam?" he asked. "Your aura is looking a bit tie died right now." I sighed. "I'm just trying to wrap my mind around all of this," I said. "It's a lot to take in."

"Yes, it is, but you know what? With friends like Rose and Lissa and Christian and I, you are going to be just fine." I nodded and looked over at him. "Adrian, what's a blood whore?"

He looked over at me and sighed. "Where did you hear that?"

"Umm, on the way in here I heard a few people saying that I was going to be your blood whore." I was a little embarrassed, but I really felt like it was something I should know. I mean, I've been here all of two minutes and that's what people are already assuming about me. "It's not something you need to worry about because you are never going to be one," he said dropping his arm around my shoulder.

A few minutes later Lissa and Christian came down the hall. They were both shocked when they saw me sitting with Adrian. Lissa walked over and sat next to me. "Why did you bring her in here?" she asked looking at Adrian. He shrugged. "She needed to see it eventually," he said sounding a little bored. Christian snorted. "You're really trying to get her to break out of here, aren't you?" I looked between them. "I asked to come," I said. They all looked over at me.

"Sam, you really don't need to see this. It's not something that is required of you right now," Lissa said.

"But it will be required when I'm a guardian, right?"

"It's a possibility, depending on where you are, but you still have time before you need to see this."

"No, I need to do this now or I will keep making excuses not to come. I want to be prepared for everything." Lissa smiled at me and patted my hand. Christian stood near the door looking bored and Adrian smiled broadly. "Well then, I guess it's time for you two to take your leave because Sam and I have a date with the feeder."

Lissa got up and gave me a big hug. "I'll see you in a few minutes." I nodded and followed Adrian down the hall. He sat down next to a young women, with gazed over brown eyes and long brown hair. She looked stoned out of her mind. It was the craziest thing I had ever seen. "Lord Ivashkov," she said with a smile. "It is so good to see you again. Who is your friend?" He looked over at me and smiled. "This is Sam, she is new to our academy." I nodded at her and she smiled back at me. She looked over at Adrian and tilted her head to the side so he could get a better position to her neck. He leaned over and bit in to her neck. I remember hearing a gasp and then everything went black.
