Love Fades Mine Has

Awakened

Rose’s POV

I woke up on a couch in a living room it looked like, I sat up and rubbed my head as I pulled my hand away I saw that it was a chalky white then my memory came back, Dimitri telling me he didn’t love me anymore, me running searching for a Strigoi that would take the pain away. I looked out the window to see light everywhere, but it wasn’t the sun it was the moon I took a step toward the door when a voice stopped me

“Where do you think your going sweetheart” I turn to see the Strigoi that awakened me, I give a smile

“To catch dinner, want to join me” I ask

“My pleasure, sweetheart” he bows, we walk together down on the sidewalk then I stop

“What is it my sweet” he asks

“Moroi” I sniff the air and walk in the opposite direction toward a bar and you will never guess who stumbled out the door, Jesse I smile

“Wait in the alley, I got this” the Strigoi nods and is gone

“Oh, Jesse” I say in a silky voice his head darts in my direction

“Rose” he moves toward me and I skip toward the alley where he follows

“What are you doing here” he asks

“Looking for you, I always have” I tease running a hand up my thigh and lean against the wall

“It- it has” he stumbles over his words, I pull him toward me and we start making out then after I sink my teeth in his neck. Jesse struggles at first then moans I pull back and hand him off too my awakener were he finishes Jesse off, he throws the body aside and says

“I’m Aiden by the way”

“Rose” I reply

“Well Rose, you can stay with me or be on your way, but I’m going home before the sun comes up” he starts down the sidewalk the way we came and I followed, he turned and smiled

“Well at least I finally got some company” he grabs my hand and we walk back to the house

“I like your house” It slips out before I can catch it

“Neat isn’t it, I have been a Strigoi for fifthteen years no one bugs me so I don’t move” we sit in the living room when he pulls me to him, my back against his chest

“Did the pain go away” he asked, I look at him and smile

“Yes” I reply, I start to get bored so I kissed him and wow I think he was better than Dimitri, his hands pulled me on his lap and we started making out as the sun came up we were spread out on the couch this is going to be a good morning I think.
