Hello again, used my super awesome skills to sneak on Lets get going then, oh, and Dimka isn't going to get away that easy, his dad isn't THAT stupid! Well, we know Blake knows that Dimitri-imposter isn't really Dimitri but Dimitri's dad who wants to kill Rose and Dimka's on his way to save her... It'll all turn out great in the end. Right?
RPOV
I was SO happy! Dimitri came back, and Lissa's in my head AND for once, I didn't throw up, have a blinding headache, try to kill anyone or see Mason's ghost. YAY! I walk back with Dimitri to my dorm. He kisses me before disappearing, probably to go speak with Kirova and Alberta. Something about his kiss makes me uneasy. It's hard, and more lustful than loving. I push it out of my head and go speak to Lissa, in my head.
Liss, you there?
YES! Oh my goodness, I was in your head just then! And Dimitri came back, you were so happy! It's going to turn out right now, isn't it?
You betcha Liss. It'll be perfection!
We pull out of each other's head and I wander back to the gym, it's time for training, with Blake. When I get there, Blake is facing the wall.
"Rose. Dimitri... isn't who you think he is." Blake says, quite seriously. I feel rage bubbling up.
"Of course he is. I love him and he loves me. He's a wonderful, caring, sweet man." I snap.
"No, he isn't. Trust me. Dimitri isn't... caring or sweet. He pretended to slit your throat when you weren't looking!" Blake yells.
"You're just jealous." He opens his mouth to protest at this but I cut him off. "You want me for yourself and you're determined to ruin our relationship! Dimitri loves me and wants me to be happy, which is more than I can say for you!" I scream at him. How dare he? I'm finally happy and he wants me to sink back into depression. He's the freak, not Dimitri!
"I found out about Kayla! You killed her through your own stupidity; it's your fault Blake! You screw up everything, even keeping your sister alive! You're a careless, irresponsible little boy and that's what got Kayla murdered. She'd be ashamed of you! She probably died hating you!" I hiss.
I know what I'm saying is terrible, and it's the spirit darkness making me do this, but the words just spill out of my mouth. Blake's face twists in guilt and shame and a tear trickles down his cheek. He steps away from me, his posture defeated.
"You've made your feelings clear, Rose. I won't mention it again. In fact, I'll take a job patrolling. Dimitri will take over your training sessions. I won't see you again." He says.
"Good." I say curtly. He backs out of the gym and wanders aimlessly outside. I know I was defending Dimitri, and I know I believe what I said, but then how come I feel so empty inside?
BPOV
She's right, it was my fault. My fault. But the least I can do now is find out what Dimitri's doing, and stop him. If she won't listen I'll go straight to the problem. I sneak under Belikov's window and hook my finger onto the window ledge. I peer up into his room and see his image flicker. Into one of Kayla's. Except, she's strigoi. Kayla waltzes over to the window and looks me right in the eye.
"You killed me Blake. I hate you, forever." God, her voice, it's the same. And her eyes, her grey eyes, same as mine. It's killing me. But my guardian instincts kick in and I swing myself in the room and raise my stake. She smiles at me, sweetly.
"Too late Blakie, too late." Kayla takes a swing at me and it knocks me out.
Incapacitated by my sister. I swear, this is more than terrifyingly painful. It's completely, utterly humiliating.
DPOV
I rush to the airport except... there are no flights to Montana. None, at all. I swear in Russian. Not good. It means I've been caught out. I know that for sure when a powerful thunk from a suitcase results in me getting grabbed by a familiar face. Abe Mazur, Zmey himself.
"Sorry boy, but your father was insistent. Not to leave the country." I stare in amazement at him.
"You're willing to serve my father, even if it means sacrificing your daughter, what kind of bastard are you?" I yell. His face changes to complete and utter shock.
"He's hurting my daughter? The contracts void now. Come on Dimka, we have a plane to catch."
"There are no planes to Montana."
"I have a jet." Figures.
We rush out of there and to Zmey's jet. He directs the pilot to Montana and we're away. While we're in the air Abe assesses me. Out of the blue he blurts out, " You better be good for Rose. Because if you hurt her, I swear..." He then launches into a graphic speech that ends with, 'and then they'll be shredded and fed to the dog'. I assure him I'll take care of her and he calms down, though I still feel uneasy.
When we finally land, we sneak commando style into the Academy. Well, actually, it's just Abe threatening the guards. After running in, we get weird looks from the staff and students. I guess they're seeing double.
"Where will Alexander be?" Abe asks me. I direct us to my room. When I get there, Guardian Johnson is tied up on the floor. He looks up at me in hatred.
"You, again." He hisses."Well, I told you last time, you're not getting anything out of me, EVER!" he says.
"It's not what you think, that other Dimitri, he possesses spirit. He's going to hurt Rose and then my family, I'm really Dimitri Belikov, and he's Alexander Drozdov."
A.N Did Dimitri's dad have a name, cause I seem to think it's Alexander Drozdov, correct me if I'm wrong! Blake looks sceptical but nods. And that's when my father makes his entrance.
"Dimitri, Ibrahim, what a surprise, unfortunately, we'll have to keep you quiet." He sneers. He still looks like me.
"Dimitri, your Rose is intoxicating. Quite lovely and her scent is gorgeous. So, innocent. But not for long" he chirps. I stare in horror.
"Oh, yes, I've kissed her. We could quite possibly do more tonight."
"Keep your hands off of her!" I and Blake yell at the same time. We look in surprise at each other.
"You don't... You and Rose aren't..." I say, heart sinking. Impossibly, while being confined by a madman and being threatened with murder, it's quite possible for me to feel jealousy.
Blake looks embarrassed. "Well, no. But I feel..." he trails off. I sigh in relief. She's still mine. Alexander is looking pleased at the exchange and he fades back to his own image. Blake sucks in a breath.
"Dimitri, my son, jealousy is an unappealing characteristic." Alexander sighs. Blake looks shell-shocked.
"He's your dad?" he asks. I nod.
"As impossible as it seems, yes. No fatherly love here. I beat him up when I was 13." I say, somewhat proudly. Blake still looks comically horrified.
"But, he's my dad too."
LOL! Blake and Dimka are brothers! Well, half. Rivalry! Now that's why I let Blake know! Cause, somebody's gonna get jealous! First though, I must deal with Alex and get Rose to realize the trickery. I am having SO MUCH FUN! I have ideas but if you have any suggestions, please Pm me, I'll be happy to include anything in my story. I'll see if I can UD tomorrow but it's unlikely. Anyways, hope you enjoyed! Also, I just got my profile done so if you want to, take a look. It's not totally engrossing but it has info on me, if you want to know more. Wow, I sound like I'm on a dating site 0_o Bye!
