Sugar And Ice

chapter 18

                The sun feeling hot on my skin, fluttering my eyes open. Looking at the the time and its seven in the morning. I feel around for Dimitri but he's not here. Getting up, I start to remember everything. I gave in, I fucking gave in. putting my face in my hands. FUCK!!!!!! The pain i felt, the pain that he went through doesn't excuse him from what he has done to me. SHIT! SHIT! SHIT! I'm a fucking mess.
              I get up needing to use the restroom. I'm still completely naked. Doing my business, "fuck!!" saying it loud, I need birth control. I'm clean so Dimitri must of cleaned me. We did it twice without protection. I need to find him to ask for another plan b and get some birth control, shit! Getting dressed, blue jeans and black sweater black boots. Leaving my hair down. I bring it to my left side to cover my mark. Walking out of my room I make my way to my mother's room.
                Knocking on her door, "mom are you up?" Nothing, I slowly open the door. Walking in I don't see her. Her bed is made. Turning around closing the door behind. I make my way to the kitchen hoping I'll find her in there. Opening the door up, I see Mari and my mother drinking coffee together. Both turning their heads to me.
               "Goodmorning sweetie" my mother getting up walking towards me, giving me a big tight hug. Grabbing my face. "How did you sleep?" She's always known I've always had nightmares. Now it seems it was a premonition of what was coming.
            "I've actually been sleeping better. How did I make my way back to my room?"
          "You started crying and calling for Dimitri, I was trying to soothe you like I've done before when you had really bad ones back home. But you wouldn't stop. I left looking for him. Actually he found me. He must of heard me calling in the dead of night. I told him and he came and got you. You instantly stop crying in his arms. He didn't tell you? "
      "He wasn't in bed when I got up" Looking away, feeling my cheeks get red. She knows everything since I don't keep secrets from her. Even that I was still a virgin before I left. Now she must think that I'm most likely not one especially if I'm sleeping with him now. Turing my eyes back to her, I smile. Dropping her hands off my face.
            "Are you hungry? Mari can make you something if you like?" Turning my attention to Mari.
               "Goodmorning Mari!" "Goodmorning Mila, would you like something as well my dear?" Asking me as she's sipping on her coffee.
             "I'll just take tea if we have it please." " Of course." Grabbing at some cabinets in search of tea. Finding some and putting water in a tea pot , turning the fire on, putting it on top of the stove.
             "I'm ok Mari, thank you. Maybe I'll have lunch later. " my mother talking to Mari. Mari nodding at her. We go and take a seat at the island. Waiting for the tea pot to rattle, to let us know it's ready.
                  "So how did Viktor and Olga collect you?" I ask her out of curiosity.
"Well, out of no where right after opening up the shop, they both come in asking to speak to me. Olga, she said that you were in an accident with Victoria's family and that they were family of theirs. But now I can see that was a trick. I tried calling but no answer. I left with them taking me straight to our house, gathering my bags and passport. And we headed to the airport, straight to here." Smiling small. "I left messages for the girls to keep open while we're both gone. Family emergency." Shaking her head grabbing her coffee cup.
                 Mari handing me my cup of tea which smells fantastic.
"Thank Mari"
"I'll let you ladies be, if you need me, I'll be around the house, ok." We both nod in unison.
"Looking back, I didn't even question them, I just went with them. I trusted my gut when it told me they were good people." My mother taking a sip. "Sooooo.... what now?" Looking at me dead serious putting her coffee down.
"I don't know" Looking at my hands, holding my cup of tea. Looking up, she's thinking hard about what to say.
        
"Is everyone a werewolve? Even Mari?"

"Yes ma'am"

"So do they change like in the movies?"

"I don't know, i haven't asked them myself but they haven't changed infront of me if they do."
