Hopeless Warriors Chapter Twenty Eight
RPOVSongs: Shrike by Hozier, Sea of Love by Cat Power, Show Me Love by Hundred WatersI walked into Dimitri's tent to find him lounging on his bed with a book in his hand. His other arm was draped behind him, propping up his head. He looked completely relaxed as he poured over the pages in front of him. It baffled me how something as monotonous as reading could bring this giant warrior to a state of contentment. As much as I loved giving him shit about it, a couple weeks ago I had decided to show him the castle library where he was welcome to replenish his collection. An enraptured stare formed on his face as he scanned the book-lined walls, and I decided I loved that look on his face even more than teasing him.Daisy perked up from the end of the bed and hopped over to me as I moved further in. Dimitri's eyes peered at me over the edge of his novel and I leaned down to stroke Daisy's back."So," he sat up a little straighter and placed his book down beside him. "How'd it go?"I look

RPOVSongs: Dusty Trails by Lucius, Bury by Unions, Destroyer by PhantogramOnce it was out of me, I couldn't stop saying it. Whether it was whispered in his ear when he finally managed to pin me to the ground, or screamed against his shoulder as he made sweet love to me, I was hooked. It was strange really, the more love I gave him the more I had bursting through me.Without meaning to, we had become protectors of one another, confidants, and true friends. And now, something infinitely more.It consumed my thoughts. When I wasn't with him I couldn't help my mind from wandering to when the next time I'd see him would be or reminiscing over every moment we shared. It was pathetic really, but I also couldn't remember a time of every being so undoubtedly happy. Apart from him, my only other thoughts centered around Lissa, and the Ozeras.In his tent, Dimitri had divulged some secrets about their family that had me seeing them in a completely new light. He had told me that a little over t

Most of the water had frozen over. There were only a few shallow cracks where the stream still sloshed over the ice and I stared blankly at those small openings.It was as if my insides were splayed out before me. What once was a lively, welcoming stream full of warmth had hardened and left no room for any sign of life. But where the frigid winds and dropping temperatures had been the cause of the brook's dormancy, harsh words and self-destruction had been mine. I sat there replaying Dimitr

RPOVSong: Absolution by Pretty Reckless"What are you saying, Rose?"At the start of the day, I left Dimitri's chambers and immediately went to Victor's office. I didn't want to waste another minute. I was done hiding. When I first arrived my uncle was welcoming and intent to indulge in pleasantries with me. I guess he had a right to be after I'd basically helped him seal one of the greatest alliances our kingdom had ever made, but as I dove into why I was really there his voice no longer had that genial tone."I'm saying that I won't do it. I won't marry him."Victor regarded me seriously for a moment, letting my words hang in the air. He slowly rose to stand from his seat and began walking towards me from around the desk. "Listen, Rose. I know you think you love him, but it's just infatuation. You're still young. You'll see over time that this was just a flitting thing and you would have thrown away your entire future for something that will easily fade."Anger began to rise inside

DPOVSong: Descent by Lawless, Hurt by Johnny Cash"Roza!"I jolted awake with a start. My body was no longer a mix of hot and cold from the blood leaking out of me onto the icy snow. My vision was still a blur and my head was pounding, but it was light out.How long had I been out?Either way, I had to get to her. I had to help her.When I realized my legs were finally free, I jumped to stand, only to immediately come crashing back down. I let out a yell as my hands and knees painfully hit a hard, stony surface instead of the moist field."Rose. Rose, where are you?"I shook my head and tried to stand again when a stomping sound moved towards me. I held up my fists, prepared for attack as a pale figure inched into my line of sight."Woah, Dimitri. What are you doing?" The voice sounded familiar but I didn't back down. "Eddie, get in here now!"Another figure rushed forward and my vision began to sharpen the slightest bit. When I recognized the two men in front of me, kneeling down to

RPOVSongs: Should Have Known Better by Sufjan Stevens, The Ghost Inside by Broken Bells, Sweet Disposition by The Temper TrapIt had been two full weeks and I was nowhere near being closer to escaping my luxurious prison. It was probably a little harsh calling it a prison since it was far more lavish than any palace I could remember—little less a jail cell—but my stuck up captors were refusing to let me leave. They insisted it was for the best right now and that when the time came they would personally escort me home, but how could I trust a group of people I had never met and knew absolutely nothing about?Shortly after my little run-in with Adrian, who was apparently only one of many Ivashkovs living in this gold crested palace, I was visited by another resident—Lady Daniella Ivashkov. Turns out she was Adrian's mother and had been tasked with keeping an eye on me. I thought at first he had gone to fetch his mum like a whiny little brat, but when I told her I had just met him and s

DPOVSongs: Un4gvn by Ruby Beardman ft. Two BeardsThe council room reeked of anxiety. I could feel it pouring out of all the attendees seated around the circular table. It wasn't the usual crowd that used to attend when Victor ran them, but they had become somewhat familiar to me. Unfortunately, these meetings had also become about as useful as tits on a bull."Any news from Inferion," I turned to ask Tasha."No. I'm afraid not," she solemnly shook her head. "We sent another raven this morning but one of the scouts saw it shot down before it even made it past the pines.""Damnit," I huffed under my breath. We had been trying to get word out to our allies for weeks but to no avail. The humans had yet to wage a serious attack again, other than a few attempted spurts to test our weaknesses, but many of them had set up stations around our perimeters and were blocking the way in or out. We tried sending messages in the dead of night as well, but the humans were diligent and always seemed

APOVSong: All These Things That I've Done by The Killers"You can't be serious?!" I stared at Pavel wide-eyed, as we walked down the crowded corridor."Completely. I heard with my own ears," he deadpanned.I shook my head and let out a low whistle. "That perverted old bastard. And you're sure it was the Voda prince?"Pavel nodded, becoming irritated now having to repeat himself again.I trusted the Dhampir, but hearing one of our society's renowned monarchs was rumored to be conducting some very unseemly acts involving livestock—well it was a lot to take in.The gossip around the palace had been at an all-time high now that the majority of the families had arrived for the ball. Rose was right about the extra foot traffic being a nightmare, but in some instances, it was beneficial to us. All the whispers across courts were now consolidated into one place, allowing us in on secrets that would've taken weeks to reach us before. Not all the information was helpful to our mission, but at

RPOVSongs: Calling the Shots by Jamie B, Waterfalls Coming Out Your Mouth by Glass Animals, Faster by Orlean, Like Real People Do by HozierI bit down on an apple as I shoved my arm into the sleeve of my dress. The fruit was unseasonably large and barely fit in my mouth as I finished getting dressed. I could only assume the influx of Earth users had been using the orchard as an outlet this week rather than the gardens. When my hands were free again I took a chunk out of it and shuffled down the corridor. A few disturbed glances shot my way as I passed a group of Moroi and took another large bite.I wiped some juice off my chin with the edge of my sleeve before pushing through a small crowd. When I reached his door I knocked a few times and shoved through the opening after hearing his soft grunt in greeting. I closed the door behind me and plopped down on a stool by the window, propping my feet up on the other.Adrian's tawny hair was disheveled, his white tunic in a similar state. He

The warm temperature no doubt bringing more of them in. I inhaled a deep breath, the air was clearer now.I looked down at my feet and groaned. Not only were the borrowed boots horrendous, but they were also two sizes too big. I looked ridiculous, but the men were starting to complain about the smell. I kicked a heel against the leg of my chair, the jostling feeling of the shoe around my foot foreign to me.The other chair beside me creaked as Abe sat down. "She was still a little edgy but hopefully she will relax enough to rest soon." I nodded, already aware that she was still awake. We'd been waiting for hours already, but luckily her night was our day and she was bound to tire out eventually.When Abe had brought me to the young woman she was too panicked, unable to concentrate long enough to gather

RPOVSongs: Burning Desire by Lana Del Rey, I'm on Fire by The Staves, Bad Vibes byThe halls were dark, even the windows were black. I must have slept in. I could barely feel the floor beneath my feet as I walked down them. My head was foggy. I wasn't sure when I'd gotten out of bed or how I'd gotten here. Most likely the alcohol's fault. Then a small light captured my attention. I moved towards it, drawn to the subtle glow.As I grew closer I realized it was coming from someone's room. The door was cracked allowing a few golden beams to escape into the blackness—a budding dawn splitting open a long dark night.It was a familiar room, one I'd intruded on before.A noise escaped into the hall. Was he having a nightmare again? Did he need me to wake him?I pushed open the door, not wanting him to suffer alone.Dimitri was lying on his bed with his eyes closed, but all other signs of sleep were nowhere to be found. His brow pulled together in a tight scrunch, his mouth slightly parted w

FDPOVSongs: Blue Monday by New Order"Have fun you two."Her back turned to me as her hand lifted towards Ivashkov's shoulder. Those fingers that had just been nervously fidgeting with a stone gently curled into a loving squeeze. His face lit up, and I was suddenly aware of the bruise forming on my chest where Rose's stake had been pressed.The past several weeks I'd conditioned myself. I'd used every situation with Rose as an opportunity to fortify my Guardian training. I wasn't necessarily detached, but I was far less emotionally invested. She was my pupil in the training ring and the Princess of St. Vladimir's outside of it. That idea played in my mind over and over like a mantra keeping me in check.But seeing them together was the ultimate test of my control. Especially when the voice in the back of my mind was clawing its way towards the surface, combatting my composure and begging to break out."...there are constantly two people battling inside me and I'm afraid what will ha

APOVSongs: Every Single Night by Fionna Apple, Lola by The RaincoatsTap Tap TapThere must have been a leak somewhere in the room. Either that or it was in my head. Hard to tell.Tap TapMy hand against the table joined the rhythmic water droplets.ThudA propped book flattened onto its shelf. Funny thing. I wondered how long it had been sitting like that. Barely clinging to stand until finally the weight of it just gave in and laid it to rest. A feeling I knew well.I fixated on that thought. Curious what the title of my book would be. Would it be thick, or thin? Would it be leather-bound, or frail material with tattered thread only just keeping the pages entwined? Regardless, the images inside would be spectacular.Tap Tap TapMy fingers sped up. I felt eyes on me. Eyes that weren't there.I wanted a drink. Something to calm my thoughts. But a sip wouldn't be enough. Not anymore.Honestly, I don't mind the drinking so much when it knocks you out and keeps you quiet. Then we're spa

EPOVSongs: Leave Before the Lights Come On by Arctic Monkeys, Humility by GorillazI starred my opponent down, unblinking until I thought my eyes would turn to prunes. He starred back, neither of us refusing to back off. I could smell tiny beads of sweat beginning to form along his forehead and knew I almost had him. I clenched my teeth, flexing the muscles around my jaw as he started gnawing on his bottom lip.My fingers were itching to move, but I kept them gripped tightly. A clicking sound came out of his mouth, one of his many tells and it was clear what I had to do next."Call," I shouted as I slammed down another stack of wooden chips.Dougal huffed and shook his head from across the table, "Big mistake Castile. I'm about to take you for all you've got."I flicked my cards between my fingers, letting them finally relax. "I like my odds.""Oh yeah," Healy laughed as he scratched his ginger beard.

RPOVSongs: Brain Damage by Pink Floyd, White Teeth Teens by Lorde, Answer by Phantogram, Present Tense by RadioheadSleep came surprisingly easy. I was sure I was in for hours of restlessness after the events that had unfolded that day but after unleashing all of that rage built up inside me, I crashed. Hard.I fell into a deep sleep. The kind that throws you into nothing but blackness, yet somehow it isn't terrifying. That was until the dark scene around me began to take a new shape.It was our old meeting place, the garden from the Western Isles. We'd met there about a dozen times before, but that time...something was off.Vines crawled up the walls in unnatural directions, starting one way and sharply jeering to another. Light was softly pouring in through the surrounding windows, but above us, the sky was pitch black with storm clouds hovering close by. Every once in awhile I'd feel a low vibration hum through the room. It caused the leaves to fervently shake before jolting to a

DPOVSongs: While My Guitar Gently Weeps by The Beatles, One More Cup of Coffee by The White Stripes, Breathe (In the Air) by Pink FloydWe picked training back up the next day, neither of us bringing up the hot springs. I thought about asking her why she lied, but instead, devoted all my energy to something else.Adrian.In between routines over the next few days, I asked her questions about him. Most of them harmless but opened the door for more inquisition. Usually, she was the chatty one and I remained quiet, responding to her with a grunt or curt reply, so naturally, the change in my attitude pleased her. She answered every question with excitement and in great detail, which was hard to hear a lot of the time but helped me piece together the puzzle that was Adrian Ivashkov.If he was hiding something, I wasn't stupid enough to think he'd share it with Rose, so on top of gaining information from her, I ordered a few of my men to discreetly tail him and report back to me. There was
