Under The Moonlight Chapter Thirty Two
RPOV We entered the cafeteria only to be greeted by the succulent smell of bacon. I wasn't kidding when I said I was starving. Dimitri had really taken a lot out of me, of course, I'd taken a lot out of him, too. I saw Eddie and Mason walking over to us. "Whatever you have to say, save it for until after I eat," I said turning to go get food. I heard them both chuckle, but they left me alone. I felt Dimitri a few feet behind me observing my actions and my surroundings, but I was already on top of all that. This whole situation was getting more and more complicated. It was my job as an Alpha to protect my pack. Guarding Lissa was just not a part of that, but Dimitri is part of my pack, too, but it's his actual job to protect me. I knew my pack members would always protect me, but I couldn't let them put themselves in harm's way just for me. "That was our pledge, Roza," Dimitri whispered in my ear, causing me to shiver as his breath tickled my skin. "We pledged our loyalty to you. T
Under The Moonlight Chapter Thirty Three
DPOV First impression: I didn't like this guy. Next impression: At least he knows who the real Alpha is. Subsequent impressions: I can probably live with this guy. Well, unless I threw a fit, I'd have to live with this guy. Derek, Rose, and I had a meeting with Alberta later to discuss the living arrangements. If I had it my way, Rose would be rooming with me and Derek would get her old room. I had a feeling that Rose would be staying with me anyway, regardless of what Alberta had to say. Through intense interrogations, I discovered that Derek and I had more in common than I'd care to admit. Like most Lycanthrope I've met, Derek was born Lycanthrope, not bitten. He was born and raised in a small town in Arkansas where he was taught to be a Guardian by his father, a Lycanthrope, and a few Guardians that lived in the area with their Moroi. When he was sixteen, he was sent to an academy to train and graduate. He, too, had lost a charge early in his guarding career. Abe took him in wh

RPOV Dimitri's anxiety had been a constant hum in my life for the past three weeks. At first, I thought it was Derek's presence in the suite and around me, but when the anxiety persisted after they started getting along, I knew something was wrong. However, every time I asked him what was bothering him, he'd say it was nothing. He even had the gall to tell me that he wasn't bothered by anything like I couldn't feel what he was feeling. I knew the rest of the pack couldn't sense his ever-present anxiety, it was just me. The day after Derek joined us we fell into a comfortable routine. Dimitri and I would wake in the morning, me getting a little more sleep than I was used to, and Dimitri getting less. We'd run a few circuits around campus before sparring. Sometimes we would spar in wolf form in the clearing in the woods, but other times we'd be in the gym in our human forms. My favorite sparring was in the clearing when we started out human and then Shifted. Dimitri was getting better
Under The Moonlight Chapter Thirty Five
DPOV I felt the first Strigoi move toward Roza, and I leapt toward the closest Pricolici. I seemed to catch it off guard because I had its throat detached from its body before it could respond. The second Pricolici jumped over me, trying to get to Roza. I thrust a claw upwards, slashing at its underbelly, hoping to do some damage. I managed to turn its attention from Roza to myself. The situation was better but not ideal. Flashes of my previous encounter with a Pricolici bombarded my mind, but instead of Ivan's body, it was Roza's. I expected to feel sorrow and pain, but as the rage coursed through my veins, my bloodlust grew. The remaining Pricolici took a step back and fear flashed in its eyes. I took the moment of hesitation to charge forward, aiming for the neck of the undead beast. My body was already fueled by the blood of the first Pricolici, I had more than enough energy to take the second one. I could feel Roza still going strong, I knew she would be, so I focused my attent

RPOV Much like the first time I woke in Dimitri's arms, he wouldn't let me leave. In fact, this time, every unsuccessful attempt was met with a growl. Sometime during the night, Dimitri had rid us both of our clothing, probably due to overheating. "Dimitri," I said for the fifth time, but every time I said his name in an attempt to wake him was met with a kiss to the back of my neck, this time was no different. I'd poked him several times, but he'd only tightened his grip around me. I decided I'd have to pull out my Alpha to get him to listen to me. Besides, it was time for us to wake up anyway. I didn't know what time we had to meet Alberta and Abe, but I assumed it was going to be early. I felt my inner wolf rise up, and Dimitri's lifted his head. I gave a low menacing growl, but his lips curled back in the best attempt at a smirk a wolf can give. I felt Dimitri's cock jump to attention as he released a low moan. Not exactly how I imagined waking him, but it will get the job done

DPOV I straightened in my seat and stared him right in the eyes before answering. "Yes, sir," I responded. His eyes narrowed further, but I maintained eye contact. I heard Alberta gasp and the room tensed further. "Daughter?" I heard Rose mumble quietly beside me. I watched as Abe's eyes widened in realization of what he had done. I would have laughed as fear swept over his face if not for the fact that I was in trouble myself. You could hear the gulp as Abe looked toward Alberta for help, but I knew she wasn't going to give him any. My eyes were trained on Abe, keeping the threat in my line of sight. There wasn't really much he could do other than using his magic, but I wasn't going to give him the opportunity to retaliate. "You're a brave man, Belikov." I heard Alberta mutter. Rose had slowly risen from her seat and had begun to pace in the space behind us. I watched Abe's head swivel back and forth as he followed the movement. I think, like me, he was waiting for her to explode
Under The Moonlight Chapter Thirty Eight
RPOV We returned to Alberta's office, still in wolf form. The normally spacious office was dwarfed when our massive bodies entered. Abe looked a little worried, but I wasn't sure if it was because we were giant beasts or if he was worried about me. "Are you alright, Rose?" Alberta asked after Dimitri had closed the door with his tail. I sat back on my haunches while Dimitri stood behind me protectively. Now that he knew the threat was against me, there was no way that I could get him to relax. "I'll get there. Do we know for a fact that there isn't a threat against Lissa?" I asked, looking at Abe for my answer. "Absolutely sure, well, not from these Strigoi anyway. She is still a Princess, there's going to be a threat no matter what, but she's safe inside the wards." "Is Roza safe within the wards?" Dimitri asked. "Probably not. The Strigoi, sadly, have the ability to manipulate even the strongest of people. Rose is probably in more danger inside the wards than outside. Outside t

DPOV I'd finished making Roza and myself lunch but with a lot of effort. I had to keep myself focused on the cooking food in front of me rather than my Alpha who was lounging in a chair in just my shirt. Her long legs were draped over the armrest barely covered by the fabric, one hand twirling her long hair around her fingers. She was reading one of her serial killer books and occasionally chuckled before falling silent again. After using all of my self-control, I finished cooking our stir-fry. I'd discovered if I fed Roza Chinese food, she's much more willing to allow my close proximity. I sat a bowlful of stir-fry on the coffee table in front of her and pulled the book out of her hands. I stuck her bookmark in the page she was on and ignored her glare as I moved away from her. Her glare vanished as her eyes fell on the food in front of her. "Thanks, Comrade!" She chirped, picking up her chopsticks and digging in. I quickly moved to put on clothes as her moans of approval drifted
