(April 27)

The Court Royle jet was taxiing down the St. Vladimir's Academy airstrip in the middle of the night for Moroi day. Dimitri could feel Jasmine's full emotions of sadness, depression, grief, and a little love all mixed together. Alberta and Janine were waiting next to the SUV for the jet to stop. Alberta had received an order from Queen Tatiana that morning to go to Jasmine's log cabin to pick up Adrian and Jasmine and bring them back to Royle Court. Alberta checked it for correct orders from the queen.

As the jet comes to a stop in front of Alberta and Janine, the door opens. Vasilisa, Rose, and Dimitri started coming through the exit door of the private jet. Alberta waved at them and said, "It's great to see all of you again." Rose and Vasilisa hugged Alberta. Rose said to Janine, "When did you get here?" Janine said a few hours ago:

"Dimitri stated that the reason Jasmine and Christian have gone into hiding is because of the pictures in the newspapers, and Braxton is searching for Jasmine." Alberta said, "I understand the reason that Jasmine and Christian have gone into hiding." We discovered the man who took the pictures of Jasmine and leaked them to the newspapers. But now we are working to hire him. Vasilisa said, "Someone could compel him, make him want to tell us who he was working for." Albert smiled at that idea. Janine said, "We have received an order from Queen Tatiana to go to Jasmine's log cabin." Get Adrian and Jasmine to bring them back to Royle Court.

Jasmine contacted the St. Vladimir's Academy and Olympic board about someone who took photographs of Jasmine in Bryant Park's Winter Village on the ice rink in New York City. Someone published them without our knowledge. Jasmine is still under contract until she turns twenty-one years old on her birthday. If anyone published the pictures without informing the St. Vladimir's Academy and Olympic board, if it is Moroi or Dhampier, they will pay for it and be sent to prison for life. If it's a human, they will have to pay a fine and go to "human prison." Janine, Dimitri, Vasilisa, and Rose looked surprised that Jasmine was still under contract until her twenty-one birthday. Alberta said, by law in both courts, that they pay for almost telling our world to the human world.

Rose and Vasilisa said, "Damn!" Janine said, "Girls, watch your mouth." Rose and Vasilisa said at the same time, "Sorry!"


(Six hours later)

Alberta gets into the driver's seat while Dimitri gets into the front passenger seat. Meanwhile, Janine was up and looking out the window. while Rose and Vasilisa were sleeping in the backseat. It takes almost eight hours to get to Jasmine's log cabin. The sun was chasing the moon across the night sky. Alberta asked, "Did you see that? Dimitri looked out the front window and could see a small shimmer coming from the ward. Dimitri said, "It must be the ward around the log cabin." Janine looked out the window at the ward and thought, "My daughter is powerful enough to dhampier that can creature a ward by herself."

Alberta reached into the backseat to wake up Vasilisa and Rose. Vasilisa could feel the magic as they passed through the ward. Rose and Vasilisa looked at each other. Vasilisa said, "Christian and Jasmine's magic is that they hold the ward up around the log cabin." Alberta said, "It is surprising that Jasmine and Christian could create a ward together." Rose said, unless they had to anchor it to something. They said, "We will discover what they anchor it to." Janine said, "What happens if five elements and Jasmine were to be put upward around the Royle Court?" Dimitri said, "Don't know."

Dimitri pulled beside the other SUV that was sitting next to Jasmine's mustang next to the right side of the log cabin. Adrian and Christian came out of the log cabin with two guardians following behind them. Janine, Vasilisa, and Rose get out of the backseat. Dimitri and Alberta get out front. Adrian said, "Welcome everyone to Jasmine's log cabin!" Adrian asked, "Adrian, drunk?" Christian said, "Nope." Jasmine will not let Adrian have it at all. Rose jumped into Adrian's arm and started kissing him. I was surprised to find that Adrian didn't smell of smoke. Vasilisa walked up and hugged Christian. Christian said, "Vasilisa, please!" Vasilisa said, "I miss you." Christian."

In Alberta, Dimitri and Janine introduce themselves to the guardians as Guardian Petrov, Guardian Janine Hathaway, and Guardian Belikov. Willow looked at Rose and said, "I thought you were with Sierra Dawn." Vasilisa said, "This is Guardian Rose Hathaway. Jasmine and Jasmine are identical twin sisters. I am Guardian Willow Sparks, and this is my twin brother, Guardian William Sparks." William said that it was amazing to see any set of twins beside us. The only difference between twins is their hair and eye color. Dimitri and Janine looked at each other.

Everyone came into the log cabin to discover Jasmine sitting on the sofa holding the baby in her arms. Christian said, "Be quiet, the Sierra Dawn is trying to sleep." Everyone could hear Jasmine sing to Sierra Dawn the song Never-Ending Story.

Rose remembers that Jasmine loved that movie when they were little. As everyone kept quiet to find out that Jasmine knew every word in the world, Rose said, "The Never-Ending Story has always been my favorite movie." Christian said, "I bought the movie for Jasmine for Christmas last year." Janine said Jasmine always loved that movie. In Alberta, Vasilisa, Dimitri, and Adrian found something new about Jasmine they never knew.

Alberta and Janine could see the albino grizzly bear sleeping in front of the fireplace. Alberta stops dead in her tracks. When she saw a live albino grizzly bear sleeping. Dimitri said, "Good! Mr. Bear back! " Vasilisa said, "Hello!" Mr. Bear The bear's open eyes looked at Vasilisa. Give her a wink and lay her head back down. He closed his eyes again. Alberta said, "There is an albino grizzly bear sleeping in front of the fireplace." Rose said, "Alberta, if you remember, the log cabin comes with a bear." Alberta said, "I didn't think it was true." Christian said, "You are wrong!"

Tiffany came walking out of the kitchen holding a warm bottle for the baby. Dimitri walked up to Tiffany and said, "I'll take the bottle." Tiffany looked at Dimitri and said, "Alright! I have got to cook breakfast. We have more people in the house. "God knows where all of you are going to sleep." Dimitri thought I was going to sleep in bed with Snuggle Bunny.

Dimitri walked over and sat down on the sofa next to Jasmine. Jasmine turns her head to find Dimitri sitting next to her. Dimitri could see new white stripes in Jasmine's hair and sad eyes looking back at him. Dimitri said, "Baby girl!" I'm sorry, I wasn't here to help you deliver your Aunt Jolene's baby. Jasmine said, "Her name is Sierra Dawn Hathaway. I called Grandmother Yeva and asked her to help me. " Dimitri didn't find it surprising to find out that his grandmother helped Jasmine deliver the baby. Remember that Grandmother Yeva helps sisters, mothers, and many other babies to be born in Russia.

Janine asked, "Where is your Aunt Jolene?" Jasmine said, "You didn't see that while you were driving up to the house." Aunt Jolene died in childbirth while giving birth to Sierra Dawn Hathaway." Besides, I am the one who dug Aunt Jolene's grave, wrapped Aunt Jolene up in her bed sheets, and carried her out the front door, placed her in her grave, and covered her with earth. "Show respect for the dead." Janine, Rose, Vasilissa, Alberta, and Dimitri realized that Jasmine did something so brave that most people wouldn't do.

Rose said, "Who gave the baby that name?" Jasmine said, "I did! The mountain that the log cabin is sitting on is called Sierra. Plus, she was born at dawn. So I put it together and called her Sierra Dawn Hathaway, after her mother's side of the family. Alberta asked, Who is her father? Jasmine said, "Randall Ivashkov." The man is a drinker, abusive, over-sex asshole, and a disgrace to the male population. I should know, I met him while in Russia. When I was at Mother Olena's house, Adrian said, "My Uncle!" Jasmine said, "Yes, Uncle." Which means that Dimitri and Sierra Dawn are your first cousins. The one rule here is to never tell Randall Ivashkov that Sierra Dawn is his born daughter. Is that understood? " Everyone said, "Yes!" Jasmine said, "Good!"

Janine said, "You are too young to be a mother." Jasmine said, "I know, Mommy! Soon I will take Sierra Dawn to Glasgow, Scotland to meet her family. Aunt Jolene wants her daughter to grow up with her family. I will finish. Aunt Jolene's dying wish was that her daughter would go live with our family. If not, I will raise her as my daughter. Because family comes first before all else.

Alberta said, "Jazz!" You look worn out. I think it is time for a nap. Jasmine said, "Yes!" Captain Alberta Christian and I have to redo the ward again. Alberta asked, "What did you use to anchor the ward?" Jasmine asked, "Is anything missing that I normally wear?" Everyone is looking at Jasmine to find something that might be missing. Rose said, "Your necklace is missing from around your neck." Christian said, "I told Jasmine to use her necklace to anchor the ward." Now that Vasilisa and Adrian are here, they will help us redo the ward to keep the herd out. Besides only using my magic with Jasmine,

William said, "Jasmine is an element!" "Willow and I thought the ward looked different from the other wards we were in." Both Willow and William reached inside their shirts, pulling out their necklaces, showing the same mark. They could see a silver circle with an oak tree. Willow said, "We are great-grandchildren of Elatha Conner." Jasmine said, "Huh!"

Janine, Alberta, and Dimitri said, "Good!" We have questions. Willow said, "Jasmine is the Ultimate Element." Vasilisa said, "Yes! What does that mean? William and Willow said it at the same time. Jasmine is a Spirit Element, the first of her kind. There has never been one before. " Jasmine said, "Damn!"

Jasmine put Sierra Dawn in her bassinet portable baby bed, which was the color of lavender and black. Jasmine asked, "Who is on baby duty?" Adrian said, "Come to Uncle Adrian!" Alberta said, "Hell no! The last time you watched a two-year-old little girl, you fell asleep on the sofa and lost her. There isn't any way in hell that we are going to let you watch Sierra Dawn. You put her down somewhere and forget about her. " Adrian said, "It only happens once."

Jasmine said, "Uncle says he drinks too much."

Dimitri and Jasmine burst into laughter.

Adrian said, "Shut up! You're not helping."


(May 5)

Jasmine was lying on her front side, sleeping. Awake to someone slowly using his lips, kissing her shoulder and up her neck. Jasmine gives a small giggle. Dimitri's voice said, "Good morning, my little snuggle bunny." Did you have sweet dreams last night? " Jasmine said, "I had a nightmare about Braxton again." Dimitri moved closer to Jasmine and slapped her ass, making her moan. Dimitri gives her a sexy smile. Leaning closer to Jasmine, she started giving her a sweet kiss.

Janine walked into Jasmine's bedroom and turned on the bedroom light. Jasmine whispers, "Oh! Fuck me. Dimitri whispers, "That sounds like fun." Janine said, "Jasmine and Dimitri, it's time to wake up and get dressed." Today! We are returning to Royle Court. " Jasmine said, "Have a pleasant flight." Dimitri smiled at Jasmine's reaction to her mother. Jasmine started pulling the cover overhead, head to toe, from her mother. In hope that she will go away.

Janine reached down, grabbing the cover, pulling off Jasmine's nude body. Jasmine moved closer to Dimitri to hide her nude body from her mother. Dimitri grabbed the cover and pulled it up over himself and Jasmine from Janine. Janine walked over and reached down, grabbed the cover, and pulled off Jasmine and Dimitri.

Janine said, "We are all going back to Royle Court." Jasmine said, "Mommy! There is no I in we. I get the weird feeling something bad is going to happen today. Janine said, "Jasmine, nothing bad is going to happen today." You can play with your boy's toy later. But right, get up. " Jasmine said, "No!" Janine said, "Jasmine Zory Hathaway! Why are you being a pain in my ass this morning? When you normal a good girl. " Jasmine said, "But Mom!" Janine said, "Don't mom me, grab Jasmine's leg and get out of bed." Jasmine hit the floor and said, "That fuck hurt." Janine said, "Maybe next time I'll listen and watch your mouth."

six hours later.

Both SUVs were in front and behind the Mustang. Their three vehicles had been headed to St. Vladimir's Academy. The first SUV had Janine, Alberta, in the front seats, with Vasilisa and Rose in the backseats. In the mustang were Dimitri, Jasmine, in the front seats, and Christian, Sierra Dawn, in the back seat. In the last SUV, there were Guardian William and Willow Sparks in the front seats and Adrian and Tiffany in the backseats.

Alberta was driven to the front of the gates and came to a stop. In Alberta, they called on "the guardian at the front gates to open the gates for them." Jasmine looked in the backseat to check on Sierra. Dawn found her sleeping. Christian smiled at Jasmine and said, "Welcome home! Jazz. Jasmine smiled back at Christian to show her fangs. Jasmine started getting a weird feeling. Jasmine started to feel Dimitri's feelings. She reached over, took her hand, and said, "Snuggle bunny, please come your way."

When the passenger door was jerked open by a male strigoi, he started reaching inside, grabbing Jasmine, and trying to pull her out of the mustang. Jasmine started fighting back against the strigoi. Dimitri reached over and grabbed Jasmine to keep her in the mustang. Christian covered Sierra Dawn from the strigoi with his body. The male strigoi pulled Jasmine harder and dragged her out of the mustang. Jasmine kept fighting to break free. Meanwhile, the other guardians were in. They were fighting the other strigoi.

Nathan moves closer to Jasmine and uses the syringe on Jasmine's neck in a few seconds. Jasmine started to fall into a deep sleep. Nathan said, "I knew eventually." The guardians would move Jasmine, and that's when we made our move. Braxton is enjoying himself now that we caught his new playmate. Nathan reached down, grabbed Jasmine's necklace, and pulled it off her neck. Breaking the chain,

Dimitri had silver staked out and came running with the mustang to save Jasmine. Dimitri saw Nathan had put Jasmine over his shoulder and gave him a small evil smile. Nathan threw Jasmine's necklace at Dimitri. Nathan and a few strigoi dashed in and out of shadows with Jasmine.

Dimitri screams, "JASMINE!" Please God, no!
