"Beep. Beep. Beep."
I sit up is shock before realizing it's just the alarm. Uhh I groan. I shut it off and get out of bed. Being the middle of the night the floor is icy cold. I hop over to my pair of slippers and slip them on.
I look around my room. It consists of a desk on the wall with the door, a bed opposite that, a door leading to a bathroom and a lonely wardrobe that is packed full with clothes.
I yawn, stretch and grab a maroon tank top and my black work out leggings from my wardrobe, and head over to bathroom.
I take a quick shower, get dressed and use a hair dryer.
When I am finished I look up to my reflection in the mirror. I have dark circles under my eyes and I look sleep deprived. I throw on a little makeup but I know that it won't completely cover it… I need coffee.
My running shoes are close to the door. I can't be bothered untying them then retying them; instead I just step into them forcing my foot down.
I step out of my room into the carpeted hallways. I make it down the stairs and I pass the lobby. When I step outside blinding lights force me to close my eyes. They always light up the school grounds with big fog lights. It's a wonder nobody ever investigated what was going on and where the light came from.
My dorm room is on the east wing where as Lissa's in on the west close to the forest. Classrooms are north wing, on the south is Kirova's office the cafeteria and the great hall. Whereas wulfan Gyms and training courses are behind the school. I walk to the cafeteria. It's 9:00pm and nobody's really up this early. I take a tray and get scrambled eggs, 2 pieces of toast and a coffee. This is a reasonably small breakfast for wulfan, since we burn so much energy we need to eat a lot.
I sit alone on a long bench and quietly eat my food.
On my way to the gym I'm dreading each step, if half of what mason said was true then I was in for hell.
When I walked into the gym I didn't see him anywhere. I let out a breath good he wouldn't know that I was late.
"Rose?" I looked around but I couldn't see him anywhere.
"Your late for practice" he said evenly, stepping out from the shadows looking badass as ever.
"Probably because you got no sleep?" He asks madder of factually.
"More like this place and the cafeteria are on opposite sides of the school"
He showed me a few reps he wanted me to do, then sat down in the corner with a Western novel. Some god.
"How'd you end up being Lissa's protector?" I asked. "You weren't here a few years ago were you even trained at this school?"
He didn't answer right away I got the feeling he didn't talk about himself that much. "No. I attended one in Siberia"
"Whoa that's got to be the only place worse than Montana"
I saw a glint of something spark in he's eyes, maybe amusement. But he didn't acknowledge the joke. He said something but I didn't catch it because I was in Lissa's head.
It was so weird I wasn't just seeing her emotions but I saw what she saw, I talked what she talked and felt what she felt. It was like watching a movie.
She felt excited so excited. He was standing in front of her, the human.
"Hi" she said.
No, no, no Lissa. She's out of the school grounds and there's no one there to protect her. I try to pull my head back into my own body but her feelings are to strong they keep me reined in.
"It's good to see you again" he replies.
Then something happens that I can explain it's like she's pushing all her emotions forward to the Christian, giving them to him if he wants to take them. No, no, no. he accepts. I bet he doesn't even knows what he's doing. At first I am confused as well but Lissa's thought's clear it all up for me. She just imprinted herself on him. Imprinting is how full-bloods give themselves to each other.
When a werewolf imprints on a specific person, they become unconditionally bound to imprinted for the rest of their life. When it happens, the experience is described as being gravitationally pulled toward that person while a glowing heat fills them; the connections of everything else become severed, or simply secondary, and only the imprintee is left to matter.
I fell our bond take a hit slightly weakening because she just imprinted. I was able to snap back into my own body.
"Rose? Rose?"
Blinking I focused on Dimitri's face. He was leaning toward me, his hands gripping my shoulders. He's Protector face was gone and he actually looked concerned.
I took a couple seconds putting my thoughts into place when I realized Lissa just imprinted on a human…..That's forbidden! She could get killed…..I need to get to her.
I break out of Dimitri's grip and race towards the door he wasn't expecting it but he ran towards me chasing me. He can't find out. I need to be faster. So I shift all my bones popping and rippling under the surface of my skin, which starts to get its coat of fur. When I'm fully shifted I take off at speeds that I didn't even know I was capable of. It was obvious he wasn't expecting this level of speed either. I raced across the court yards trying to get to Lissa, as well as trying to lose Dimitri.
When I got to the forest he was still on my tail, but I knew that about ten tree into the forest a really big tree had been rotting. When I got closer to it I jumped at it attacking the base of it with my claw.
I didn't know if this was going to work but my surprise the tree came crashing down. Separating me and Dimitri by the time he would be able to get over it I would be long gone.
As I was running I stuck my snout up in the air tracking Lissa when I caught her scent I raced towards her. I saw her in a clearing with the boy. I shifted and ran to her puffing. She was looking at me confused.
"Are you crazy" I say grabbing her shoulders. Looking her square in the eye "It's forbidden".
"I'm sorry Rose it just happened" she said realizeing what i was on about.
"Belikov is following me, we've got to go"
I looked past her shoulder to the very confused looking face of Christian. "If I were you I would go home, now"
He looks to Lissa wondering what to do and she nods. He disappears into the forest.
"We'll take later let's just get back into school grounds" she nods.
We both shift and make it over the faint glowing line. Once were over we shift back we walk towards the forest edge but something jumps out in front of us.
"Rose, what the hell was that" Dimitri said fuming not realizing that Lissa was next to me.
He calmed himself and saw Lissa "Forgive me princess" he said. "But Rose and I have somewhere to be. He lead me away in private and asked. "What happened?" his face stern and serious.
"Lissa she was in trouble, I had to help her"
He looks confused for a second "You have the bond" he says in realization.
"Why did you need to cross the school borders to help her?" he asks.
"I didn.."
"Don't lie to me, I saw you" he cut me off.
"Cause she walked out not realizing what she was doing"
He looks at me, no more like through me. He can tell something is off about my story but he doesn't question it.
"Next time she's in trouble come get me" his face softens "I can help".
I nod.
I hoped you liked it please review i want to hear your idea's and thoughts!
