Vampire Academy Fanfic

Chapter 21

I'm not sure if many of you remember a lot about this story, but I had implied in an earlier chapter that there was a meaning behind the name 'Ivan'. I've been racking my brains and so far I haven't come up with a sufficient explanation. If anyone would like to give me an idea, it would be great 😂 it's been years since I revisited this story

After Dimitri and I returned to our room, he had an immediate sort of mood shift. Pulling me towards him, he repeated his previous words, "I love you, Rose."

And there is was, a fiery passion, a desperate need to kiss him, to be with him, to be the only one in his life. He had apparently sensed it too and engulfed me in a kiss that made my knees weak. It was almost as if the world started to spin, and I felt both calmed by his presence and also fueled by it.

An idea popped into my head, I wasn't sure if he was going to like it though. Either way, I really wanted to suggest it, and it kind of shocked myself to hear the words that came out of my lips. "Dimitri... do you want to try... drinking from me?"

In the back of my mind my subconscious was screaming that it wasn't a good idea to bring this up, it had been a long time ago but it didn't change the fact that he'd used me as his personal blood whore when he was a Strigoi.

Much to my surprise and, more importantly, delight, he didn't look troubled. Instead, he looked rather eager. He nodded only once though, cautiously, as if to make sure I really wanted to commit this treacherous act. My only action was brushing my hair to one side and tilting my neck at a good angle in anticipation.

There was a small pain, but it was nothing compared to what came afterwards. The bliss. Pure bliss. It had been a while since I'd experienced such pleasure. I hadn't had sex in a decade and my life in Baia was rather boring, so this was a much welcomed feeling.

After he had his fill, he pulled away, leaving me feeling like a piece of me had been torn away. I feebly reached towards him, silently begging for more. I saw a flicker in his eyes that showed he really wanted to, it had been just as good for him as it was for me. However, he smiled and looked into my eyes, which were likely slightly glossy from intoxication, and gently told me, "Sleep, my dear Rose."

"B-but I don't want to... I want more..." My voice surprised me. Was that really me? Begging like a feeder? I didn't care at this point.

His smile tightened a bit. "Rose, sleep. Now."

He was right, I really should sleep. The need for the high was still there, but nowhere near as burning as before, as the need for sleep took over and I drifted off.

Even in my dream, Dimitri was there. Rich, tanned skin, a chiseled jaw that made my heart swoon, and most of all, eyes that were dark but kind and loving. I ran up to him happily and said, "I miss you so much."

He responded with, "I miss you too, Roza. When... when will you come back?"

"Come back? What do you mean?" I suddenly felt like I was forgetting something. I reached towards him. "Comrad-"

The second my hand made contact again, he gave me a small, sad smile and faded away.

"Comrade? Comrade! Dimitri, where are you?" I asked desperately, "Comrade!"
