Love Fades Mine Has

Chapter 7: Compulsion

Rose Point of view

He finally admitted his feelings for me! I am over the moon right now. It's been one week since the incredible birthday party Adrian threw me. One week ago since Dimitri declared his love for me once again. We have tried to keep our distance until I could tell Adrian that I didn't want to be with him. Dimitri wanted me to say to him the day of the party, but I told him I wasn't going to destroy the little happiness he had. The council has concluded that they had enough proof that Dimitri wasn't a Strigoi and they gave him, his guardian title back and gave him a new charge Christian Ozera, could you believe it? The one who's parents turned Strigoi. That was more time than I would spend having him around. Before I could even tell Liss about Dimitri and me, I had to break up with Adrian; it only seemed fair. So today was the day that I would tell Adrian that I couldn't be with him. I called him and told him to meet me at his place that we needed a serious talk.

I walked to his condo, I was about to knock on the door, but I was surprised as he opened.

"Babe," Adrian said as he leaned in to kiss me as I responded to a tap kiss.

Adrian led me deeper into his place. Since we started dating, we haven't been here alone. Adrian lead me to the living room, and he took the sofa first.

"What did you want to talk about little Dhampir?" Adrian asked me.

" I can't be with you anymore," I said as I started to walk away, but he quickly grabbed me.

"What do you mean you done?" Adran asked as his voice suddenly got low.

I faced him face to face and saw just sadness.

"I'm done with this I can't be with you, I don't love you. You deserve someone better than me," I said as once again, I tried to leave.

" I don't want someone else I want you," Adrian said as his voice weakened.

"Rose look at me at least," Adrian said, and this time it wasn't his voice.

He was using compulsion.

My body suddenly turned to him, and I was once again looking at his eyes.

"You won't break up with me," Adrian said again with his compulsion voice as he walked to me.

I wanted to say no, but my mind was going the way the compulsion wished to it to do. I thought I would be immune to being compulsion since I'm a Shadowkiss.

"Why is he doing this," I thought to myself.

" I want you to forget we ever had this conversation. You'll remember that you had the greatest time in your life with all the people you must love at the party: your mine and no one else. After the party you spent the night with me," Adrian said once again.

I suddenly forgot the conversation we had, the only thing last remember was the party and me spending the night with Adrian. Adrian smiled at me, and I returned the smile. Adrian kissed me, and I responded, not with full force as he did. Our little makeout session was soon becoming heated that Adrian pulled away.

" Let's go to Lissa; my shift almost starts," I told him as I kissed him.

Today Lissa would be in her office gods knows doing what. It was heavy guarded by my team of royal guards. We where missing two more people to make the team completed, but the council are waiting until two guardians from Russia graduate. We made it to Lissa's office and saw she was in the company of Christian and his new guardian Dimitri Belikov. Dimitri looked at me with so much love, but I rolled my eyes at him. Dimitri suddenly turned cold again as if I hurt him.

" Wasn't he mad at me?" I thought to myself as I walked to Lissa.

"Hey," I said to Lissa.

Lissa turned and faced me, and her smile quickly disappeared.
