Okay, here's the next chappie!!!
Lissa's pov
'I'll be right back.' Rose said and then dashed away from us.
'Rose, wait.' Adrian said. He began to follow her but Christian stopped him.
'Just leave her. She'll come back when she's ready.' I said. If I knew Rose, which I did, she wouldn't have left without a good reason.
Alberta came over to us and I tried not to let myself worry about Rose too much. She was a strong girl and I knew spirit wasn't affecting her too much today. We both agreed I shouldn't be using magic while we were pregnant because it was messing with our minds more than usual.
'Guardian Castile,' it felt weird hearing Alberta calling Eddie "Guardian Castile" but that's who he was now. 'We need you to help out at the elementary campus. Numbers are going down.' She looked grave.
Eddie nodded and practically ran out the door.
'Where's Guardian Hathaway?' Alberta asked.
'Which one?' Adrian asked. I elbowed him. He knew exactly which one she meant. Rose's mum had gone somewhere else on campus to help out.
'Rose Hathaway.' Alberta said, frustrated. 'Lord Ivashkov, we don't have time for stupidity today. If you value your life you will cooperate.'
'She went into the change rooms a few minutes ago.' Christian said. I swear I would've teased him about being worried about Rose if we were in a different situation.
'By herself?' Alberta looked like she was going to start freaking out soon.
'Are you Princess Dragomir?' a deep voice with an accent I didn't recognise cut off my answer. I turned to see a tall, tanned—well, as tanned as Moroi get—man with a ridiculous amount of gold jewellery, and way too many flashy scarves. Everything about his looks, from the dark hair and eyes right down to his expensive coat, screamed dangerous and money.
'Yes.' I answered. 'Who are you?'
'That is not important. Do you know where Rosemarie is?' he asked. I don't know why, but I found myself answering.
'She went into the change rooms 10 minutes ago. She's probably still there.' I asked. Then, out of curiosity, I opened my mind to see if I could see his aura. It was gold. He was a spirit user.
I looked at Adrian. He'd discovered the same thing. Before I could voice my opinions, I was sucked into Rose's head.
She was scared, but it wasn't really for her safety she was scared for. It was for her baby. And she was worried about me. She always worried about me.
'What are you doing here? Did you organise this?' she asked, accusingly. Standing in front of her was a Strigoi. No wait, scratch that, it was Dimitri. Oh my God!
'No. I came here with some friends. So don't play games with me Rose. You know exactly why I'm here. I let you get away from me, but this ends tonight. You're too dangerous for me to allow you to walk this earth.'
Rose, very uncharacteristically said, 'Why can't you just leave me alone? We don't have to have anything to do with each other anymore.'
He didn't answer. He just lunged forward and tackled Rose to the ground. He tried to fight him off but he was too strong. Her stake got knocked away out of her reach. The dark side of spirit started to leak into her. Her already fragile mind began getting weaker. She was losing will power. And the weight of his body was crushing her.
'Not even going to put up a fight Roza?' he said scornfully. If Dimitri had ever loved her before, he wasn't showing it.
Rose was about to attempt to push him off again when she felt it. A light fluttering feeling in her stomach. Like a fish swimming around in there.
Dimitri leaped off her body, clearly shocked as he felt it too.
'You're pregnant.' He stated the obvious.
She used his momentary distraction to dart over to her stake, taking up a protective stance a few metres away from him. She didn't even bother answering. Come on Rose. You've beaten Dimitri at a fight before, you can do it again. This isn't the man you love. She was talking herself into it. You're stupid. You can never beat him. Another voice whispered in her head. She tried to clear her mind.
'Who's is it?' his voice snapped her out of her thoughts.
'Who's the hell do you think it is? It's yours. You know that.' She snapped back at him. Very Rose-like.
His eyes narrowed and he lunged at her, too quick for her to react. His fangs bit down in her neck. She screamed. It wasn't supposed to hurt like this. Vampire bites were supposed to make you high. Rose knew that. She'd let Dimitri bite her a lot...
Out of nowhere, Dimitri stopped. He pulled back from Rose, confused. Rose looked up at him groggily, the pain in her neck momentarily forgotten.
'You're going to go away from here.' A new voice that I had heard not too long ago said. When did that weird scarf guy get there? Wasn't he in front of me? 'You aren't ever going to come back.'
And, strangely enough, Dimitri's mystified look increased and he dashed away from the forest. Away from Rose and that foreign guy.
'Abe...' Rose recognised him from somewhere. Then she passed out.
Okay, I told you Dimitri would come soon and in case anyone was wondering, Abe just compelled Dimitri to leave the academy and not come back.
I know,,,, has anyone else ever done Abe as a spirit user???? lol
But that doesn't mean he wont try the royal court lol
And omg he knows about the baby!!!!
