Under The Moonlight Chapter One
Welcome to St. Vlad's.No, not St. Vladimir, patron saint of Russia.St. Vlad, as in Vlad Tepes, aka Vlad the Impaler, aka Dracula.I think it unfair that the school is named after a vampire. Sure, vampires attend here, but so do Lycanthrope.There are the Moroi, vampires, and the Dhampir, half-vampire half-human hybrid. There are, also, the Lycanthrope, half-human half-wolf hybrid.But then there's me. I'm what you would call a True Hybrid: half-vampire half-werewolf.Since I am welcoming you to St. Vlad's, I'm going to give you a little crash-course on all things supernatural – well, at least for the species represented here and those we have to fear.Moroi, commonly known as the living vampire, can walk in the sun, though it does sting. They have a long list of abilities: superhuman senses, agility, speed, quick to heal, perfect night vision, and most control an elemental magic – including the magic of the spirit. Some Moroi have the bat shapeshifting ability that vampires are know

RPOVThis is my favorite part.The Transformation.My body breaking apart and piecing itself back together.It was magical.First my tibias broke, forcing me to the ground. Next it was my back, which had to break to fit more vertebrae. Most of my bones just had to elongate, not actually break. My shoulders dislocated from their sockets, making way for my growing muscles. The bones in my hands and feet started to shift, growing out into paws and claws.When most people witness The Transformation, they believe it to be painful. The sounds of bones snapping caused them to cringe in fear and stare at you with pity. The Transformation was anything but painful: it was pure bliss.My face had begun to extend, growing out my snout. My eyes grew further apart, allowing me to see more, and my ears curved upwards, allowing me to hear further. I noticed the immediate change in my senses. In my human form, I had pretty decent senses, better than any normal human, that's for sure, but as a wolf…I w

DPOVThis was the worst part.The memory.The nightmare that I lived through, leaving me broken, unable to be fixed.It was horrible.The smell of the recent storm was faint in the air. My claws dug into the earth, keeping me from sliding too far from the fight. The Pricolici in from of me was an Ancient, probably one that turned by choice. After the first Moroi he had drained he'd gone on to drain thousands more, their blood fulling his power.Ivan's blood.His body lay to my right, limp and lifeless. His blond hair stained red by his blood. His dull eyes staring wide, looking at nothing, seeing nothing. The life that once resided there was absent. The Guardians that were supposed to be protecting him were littered throughout the woods leading to this clearing.I'd sensed that my charge was in danger. I was having my first night off since I'd started guarding him straight out of high school six and a half years ago. He was my best friend and after graduation, he became my charge. I h

RPOVI once again, awoke early. I was going to have an easy morning, just a run and weight lifting. I didn't want to make myself too sore on the first day of classes. You know how I only have combat classes, well included in those combat classes was Bodyguard Theory and Personal Protection.I don't understand why there needs to be a theory class for such an applicable subject. They should have us out in the field shadowing other Guardians to gain on-the-job experience. That would benefit us more and it wouldn't be such an adjustment once we graduate.So not only do I dislike the subject, I've already tested out of it, but I have to be enrolled in the class, I also dislike the Guardian teaching the class. Stan Alto. It wasn't that he was a bad Guardian, I mean he was far from the best, but he was a good Guardian. But he was a horrible person. The majority of his hostility was focused on me, but he was openly rude to everyone, student and co-worker alike.I was not looking forward to hi

DPOVAfter my morning workout, where I'd met Rosemarie – Rose, I showered and got ready for my day. I was going to spend the first half of the day observing Rose in her classes to get a feel for where she is training wise and what her strengths and weaknesses are.Her first class was Bodyguard Theory and Personal Protection. The class was taught by Guardian Stan Alto, and from what I've heard he's a dunce and just plain cruel to his students. I suppose that it would be a test of her self-control, or her professionalism.I headed to the classroom and found myself to be the first one there, even Alto wasn't presiding yet. I placed myself at the back of the room so I could observe the entire space."Ah, Guardian Belikov." Stan said coming in. "What can I help you with today?""I'm just observing today." I stated formally. He just nodded. Students started trickling into the classroom, all of them wearing similar expressions of exasperation, probably due to the man at the front of the room

RPOVAfter Advanced Guardian Combat Techniques with Guardian Erikson, I had Weight Training and Conditioning with Guardian Pavlov.Since I had just finished combat class right before this, I was still in my gym clothes, ready to go. I had about ten minutes before the class would start, giving those who had just arrived time to change. Guardian Pavlov was already here, stretching before he began class."Good morning, Guardian Pavlov." I said cheerily. He was one of my favorite Guardians on campus. He had dark brown hair with golden hues and light green eyes that peered out under thick eyebrows. His jaw was strong, but not offending, and his eyes were surrounded by laugh lines. He was a great guy and one hell of a Guardian.He usually let me do all of my conditioning on my own. If I asked nicely, he'd even let me condition in wolf form, which is what I wanted to do today."Good morning, Novice Hathaway." He responded with equal vigor, the corners of his mouth twitched, but he quickly sm

DPOV"I promise I won't peek, either." She said laying down, covering her eyes with her large paws.I couldn't believe she was here. It was literally a dream come true. She was even more magnificent in person, or wolf, I guess. Her pristine white fur shone eerily in the moonlight, making her glow. The lilac of her eyes was unlike any I'd seen before. I didn't understand how her Transformation worked, turning her dark brown almost black hair into a snow-white and her dark brown eyes into a light lilac, but either in wolf or human form, she was beautiful. I couldn't seem to take my eyes off her.I smiled down at her form, the position she lay in was adorable, at least it would've been if she wasn't massive, but it was still endearing. I quickly shook my duster from my shoulders, hanging it on a tree branch. Gripping the edge of my t-shirt, I lifted it over my head.I felt my cock pulse and my body lurch toward hers, I growled as I watched her tail thump against the ground. Only then did
Under The Moonlight Chapter Eight
RPOV"Rose!" Cried Lissa from her spot at a table with Christian, Eddie and Mason. "Oh my gosh. You won't believe all I've heard this morning. I've so much to tell you!""Liss, it's barely been four hours." I laughed as I sat down. "You can't possibly have that much to tell me. Even when it comes to Royal gossip."Lissa started to speak but stopped suddenly. Her eyes were directed behind me. I turned to see what she was staring at and saw Dimitri. He was standing there looking a little out of place. Most Guardians don't take their meals in the commons like the students do. The friendlier and more sociable Guardians do, but most aren't that nice. I would want Dimitri to take his meals with us, just to get to know us better. I'd almost forgot that he didn't know everyone and feel completely comfortable just sitting down with the rest of us."Oh, yeah. Guys, this is Guardian Belikov." I beckoned him forward. "Guardian Belikov, this is Novice Edison Castile, Novice Mason Ashford, Lord Chr

RPOV "There was nothing you could do, Roza." Dimitri comforted as we cuddled in bed. We'd just gotten back to the house and finished taking a shower, and Dimitri had finally Shifted back. After Galina had understood what was going to happen, I beheaded her. The Pricolici were the only remnants of Galina's empire other than the Strigoi that had been sent out at the beginning of the night. "I still feel bad. They weren't hurting anyone anymore. I had them under control." I grumbled knowing he was right. "I know, but even you don't know how long you could have kept them in control." Dimitri soothed pulling me closer to him. "It feels nice having you back in human form. If you ever go on strike like that again, I'm dropping you from the pack." I said in a serious tone. He chuckled and kissed my neck. "I'm sure you will." He mumbled as he continued to pepper kisses on my skin. "I'm serious, I will." I moaned as Dimitri's hand started circling lower. "Even your charming ways couldn't

DPOV "Does everyone know what they're doing?" Rose asked yet again. We'd been going over this plan for the past three days. After we'd gotten back the first night, we told Abe everything and let him formulate a plan while we slept. We got a good day's sleep before setting out for another night of investigation with more detailed instructions on what to look for. We arrived at the manor before the sun fully set, giving us enough time to see how many Strigoi were sent out. After the first night, we didn't take Paul. Babushka said that he'd learned enough and didn't need to go again. Personally, I think that the constant questions made surveillance difficult and the long hours we'd be gone were hard for such a young wolf. Rose had suggested that she could be paired with someone else to see if she could help notice different things than them, but I shut that idea down before it fully left her mouth. We went back to the same spot we had visited the previous nights to better notice patte
Under The Moonlight Chapter Fifty Two
RPOV There was a phone ringing nearby and the surface I was sleeping on started shifting. I groaned softly in annoyance but immediately fell back into my dream of Dimitri and me in an amusement park. The Dimitri beside me was always smiling and, thankfully, in human form. He'd threaded his fingers through mine, and our arms swung freely between us. When I actually looked around us, the park looked dilapidated. The metal of the various rides had rust and faded and chipped paint. The ground was littered with trash and I finally noticed that no one else was here. With furrowed eyebrows, we continued through the park. As we approached the back of the park, I could hear music playing. My ears perked up as they tried to find the source of the music. Coming around the corner of a concessions building, I saw the merry-go-round spinning slowly while playing rundown, creepy-sounding music. Dimitri suddenly stopped, seemingly frozen in time. I tried pulling him closer to the ride and calling

DPOV Rose was taking a shower after training when a knock sounded on our door. I was laying right outside the bathroom door, waiting for Rose, and lifted my head. "Enter," I called out. There was a deep intake of breath outside the door before it opened. Adrian stuck his head through the doorway and looked around the room until his gaze fell upon me. His eyes widened a little, I'm assuming because I was still in wolf form, but he quickly fixed his face back to the carefree, cocky look he always seemed to wear. "What can I do for you, Lord Ivashkov?" I asked sitting up taller. Even when I was laying down I was still taller than the Moroi lord. "I wanted to make sure the air between us is clear." He replied stepping further into the room. "As long as you know that Roza's place is by my side and there's nothing you can do to change that, we'll be fine," I stated narrowing my eyes slightly. "You've nothing to worry about from me. I see the connection you two have, and I don't have t

RPOV "You can let go of her hand now," Dimitri growled as Adrian continued to hold on to my hand. "Don't worry, Big Hybrid," Adrian said releasing my hand. "I can see your Claim, you've nothing to worry about from me." Dimitri didn't look too convinced as Adrian gave him a lazy, carefree smirk before winking at me. "So, Little Hybrid, would you like to catch me up on all that's been going on around here?" He asked gesturing me over to a couch. Adrian had arrived this morning while Dimitri and I were enjoying our shower. As soon as Dimitri had dried off, he Shifted. Abe later gave a tentative knock at our door to inform us of our recently arrived guest. I sat down on one of the couches and Dimitri immediately placed himself at my feet in between myself and Adrian. Adrian looked amused at Dimitri's overprotective and jealous nature, but Dimitri continued to look the part of the jealous boyfriend. We spend the next hour filling Adrian in on what had been happening with me and my pa
Under The Moonlight Chapter Forty Nine
DPOV I could tell that remaining in wolf form was starting to get to Rose, but I wasn't Shifting unless absolutely necessary and even then, I'd Shift back as soon as possible. We'd gathered the pack in the living room to share the information we'd collected while feeding and hoped to gather information on what had happened to Christian. "Why don't you start, Liss," Rose said gently taking Lissa's hand in hers as they sat beside each other on one couch. I lay on the floor beside Rose resting my head on her feet. "Derek stopped me on the edge of the wards. He wouldn't let me follow you guys and Rose. I was a little irritated, yes, but then I thought about what I could really do to help and decided it was better if I stayed back to help when you returned. That was until I felt the pain in my chest." Lissa paused briefly and shook her head as if to rid herself of the memory. Christian, who was sitting on the other side of Lissa, took her hand and gave it a comforting squeeze. She took

RPOV I could feel Dimitri's anxiety as soon as we exited the wards, but I decided to focus on my overwhelming hunger instead of calming my Pair. The scent of death was still overpowering, but I didn't know if it was because there were Strigoi nearby or because last night's dead Strigoi still hadn't dissolved in the sunlight. Due to the dense tree coverage, sunlight wouldn't have been able to reach all the bodies. We'll probably need to come and burn the bodies. "Do you guys know which direction we should start in?" I asked tiredly. My muscles ached and my stomach felt like it was going to tear itself apart, but the bloodlust kept me upright and moving. "I say we start in the direction the Strigoi disappeared in last night." Dimitri provided herding me in that direction. I ran in the direction he pointed me in keeping an eye and a nose out for Strigoi. We passed the bodies we'd decimated last night and found a scent to follow from there. Dimitri was running directly to my left while

DPOV "Join our pack?" Rose questioned quietly. Babushka was still holding her chin in her hand, silently appraising my Alpha and my Pair. "Yes. We've been a part of the Baia pack for as long as I can remember, but when Mama told me that Dimitri had Paired with a True Alpha, I knew we had to meet you and join your pack." Mama explained gesturing to Babushka. "Our pack isn't necessarily the safest to join at the moment," Rose mumbled hesitantly. "Nonsense. We're joining, that is, if you'll have us." Mama said with a wave of her hand. Babushka finally released Rose's chin, and she came to stand beneath me. I'd sat down watching my family interact with Roza, well specifically my Babushka. Rose leaned back against me cuddling into my fur. She rubbed one leg against the other, probably trying to gain warmth through the friction. My shirt stopped a few inches below her ass, covering her modesty while giving me a great view of her legs. "I can't really say 'no' to your family, can I?" Sh
Under The Moonlight Chapter Forty Six
RPOV My head was pounding. My body felt heavy. My mind was weak. I couldn't stand. I couldn't move. I heard the sounds of a raging battle, but I couldn't find the strength to join in. My heart constricted as I felt Dimitri grow weaker. He needed blood, but the amount of Strigoi wouldn't let him get a decent bite. "Fight, Comrade." I sent out weakly. I heard him give a loud growl and felt the pull of blood. Off in the distance, I could hear approaching footsteps, and I was worried Dimitri would have to fight off even more attackers. "Rose!" I heard Mason's voice cry out. My heart rate quickened knowing the rest of my pack probably wasn't far behind. I found the strength to open my eyes. I was lying face down on the ground. I could see one of Dimitri's massive paws beside my head as he stood over me. After he took down the first few Strigoi, the rest of them held back to plan a more effective approach. I could smell his blood, and I knew he had been injured. The heavy pounding o
