6Hi there :) It's my first time writing anything, I hope you like it.
Chapter 1
I woke up to knocks on my door. Light was still pouring in beside my closed curtains which meant it was still night time here at Court. Alarmed, I jumped out of bed and went to open my door. Dimitri stood before me, as handsome as ever. He was already dressed in his guardian uniform and I could smell his aftershave. There were no "Good morning Roza" or "how was your night?". No, he was in full guardian mode. We had agreed not to be too personal when we were working. But I could still notice the corner of his lip going up a bit. I could tell he was happy to see me and I soon realized I was dressed very lightly. It was summer and I was still in my pajamas, which meant a big tee-shirt, but it wasn't any tee-shirt, and I'm sure he noticed. It was one I had taken from him when I visited his place. I felt myself blush slightly, but it soon hit me. What was he doing here? Was something wrong with Lissa or Christian?
"What's going on?" I asked quickly
"Nothing's wrong with Lissa or Christian" he reassured as if he had read my mind. I eased up a bit before tensing again when he added "at least not something life threatening".
"Let me change, you'll explain on our way to see them" I stood aside so he could come in. He hesitated at first but then walked in. I closed the door behind him and walked to my closet to find my uniform. In just a few minutes I had gotten dressed, pulled my hair up, and gotten myself clean. I was ready to go.
We began walking towards Lissa's new office, as Dimitri started to explain the situation to me. Lissa had been under a lot of pressure since she had been crowned Queen a month ago. The royals where pressuring her to make changes or in our case now to not make changes. Lissa had been trying to change the way Moroi felt about fighting, but so far she didn't have much success. Most royals where selfish and physically weak, they hated change, at least when they were involved.
Today, Lissa had woken up early to be able to prepare for a meeting she had with the royals later on. But as things weren't going too well in her preparations she asked Dimitri to come get me, hoping I could give her some inspiration.
After being shot, Lissa wouldn't allow me to resume my full duty until at least two months. I tried to argue that I was fine, and that I needed to work but she was soon joined by Dimitri, Christian, my mother, and even Alberta when she came to visit. Although I did managed to negotiate on the terms. I would work all day, simply starting my shift a few hours later than regular shifts. This also meant that I wasn't allowed to do night shifts or anything that would make me lose too much sleep. It felt like the field experiment all over again. But other than that, there was nothing I could do to change the way they felt. To top it off, I still wasn't used to the bound being gone, and I kept thinking that if it wasn't then I would have known about her frustration and Dimitri wouldn't have had to come and get me. Not that I minded seeing his face first thing in the morning.
As we kept walking I could see the people whispering. Before Tasha was executed for treason, she had spoken about our relationship to all of those who would come in contact with her. If she didn't manage to have me executed she was dead set on making our relationship as hard as she could. People started asking question and we defended ourselves as much as we could. Our friend and our Queen helped us convince them it was nothing to worry about. We had argued that our relationship started after he had been brought back to life even if we were attracted to one another before. Eventually people started believing us, ignoring Tasha's protest, and the rumors dilled down a notch. After all, a damphir couple was looked down upon but I was in no circumstances illegal. As we went across court, I silently hoped no one would come to talk directly to us. My wish was almost granted… almost. As the doors to Lissa's new office appeared at the end of the hallway, a young Moroi whom I could tell was royal from looking at his eyes, stood in front of us, cutting our road, and making us stop. We had both seen him coming from the corner of our eyes but had hoped he was simply passing by.
"You disgust me. You should be ashamed of yourself" he said looking at Dimitri.
"Step aside please, we have urgent matters to attend to, and we do not make our queen wait." As always, Dimitri stayed calm and kept his guardian mask on. No one could tell what he was feeling or if he had been offended by the Moroi's word. I would have thought he was fine if I hadn't seen his mouth twitch a little when the Moroi spoke. It was barely visible and I was pretty sure I was the only one who had picked up on it.
"You should never be allowed near a school anymore. Who knows, you might start impregnating the Moroi underage girls next" continued the Moroi ignoring Dimitri's statement. It took every ounce of control I had to not throw him against the wall and put my hand on his neck, to shut him up. Unfortunately Dimitri was still walking on thin ice for what had happen between us and making a scene now would only make things worse. No matter what kind of an asshole some of these royal Moroi's were, "they come first". As he opened his mouth to add something else, I shoved him aside as gently as I could after hearing what he said, leaving us just enough space to keep walking. The Moroi gasped when he was pushed aside and yelled "You'll pay for this! You have no idea who I am!" as we were walking away.
"And you have no idea who I am" I hissed between my teeth. Indeed, I had graduated top of my class and was starting to feel respect coming from my coworkers, I had become quite a legend within the guardian world. But most of all, I had quite a family; my mother was one of the most respected guardians in the world, my father could probably have him lose his position wherever this Moroi had one, being a mob and all, and to top it off, my sister, or at least my best friend was his Queen. Yes, he had no idea who I was or what I was capable of.
"You shouldn't have done that" said Dimitri as soon as we were out of earshot.
"And he shouldn't have said that!" I knew he was right but it still annoyed me that he was somewhat defending him. The rest of the walk happened quietly, and we soon reached Lissa's door.
