Chapter 13 ✔️

"Hey there !That not very nice, and here I thought me being here and risking my life to protect yours was noble, Lord Ivashkov," I joked, missing the good old days with my friends. Don't get me wrong my new guardian friends are solid and the new relationship with the Abe was going okay but wasn't home.

"As much as Abe can try to keep me home, you know full well I wouldn't let you guys go at it alone, just because I'm not in the field doesn't mean I can't help safely. Besides I've missed you as well, why would I miss an opportunity to see you that's just foolish."

Even though Adrian and I didn't work out didn't it mean I didn't think of him any less. Adrian was the type of man who puts on this 'I don't care' persona, the I'm a bad boy Royal Moroi who smokes and drinks. Rebels against his family. Underneath all that he is actually one of the most loyal and trustworthy man I have ever met. He was one of my best-friends. Not a lot of people can see this side of him, if you get a tiny glimpse of it is a feeling you wouldn't understand until you see a whole new Adrian.

Personally if fate had took Dimitri from me, Adrian would have been the man I could see myself with. Maybe that's selfish of me to think of the what if's Nor should I think of him more than a friend, especially after everything I did to him. Ashamed for using his money for Russia.Ashamed for saying yes than run of a few months later.

His future wife is the luckiest, he may be a bit of a fixer upper but he has got a heart of gold.

Personally, Adrian was the diamond in the rough.

Giving me a pointed look, Adrian did not speak, just kept smoking.

" Alright guys! Let's get this started, Sydney you explain the mission to Adrian and the guardians, I will drive to the location ." I bounced excitedly. Finally I can drive now. Dimitri can't stop me now.

Thinking like a madwomen.

"Nice try, get in the passenger seat, road runner,"Sydney ordered, causing me to pout. That's not fair.

"Don't pout Little Dhampir, maybe she will let you drive on the way back." He joked, putting his cigarette out.

Prodding him in his gut, I say, " Oh well, at least I don't have to cram in the back with the guardians." I teased.

I opening the front seat and buckled up cheerfully.

Once everyone got in and secured, Sydney drove to the destination of the headquarters.

"Okay so Guardian's Taylor and Brendan will be escorting Adrian and Sydney until they are in the building, safely. After that it's Adrians job to use spirit to change the appearance of him and Sydney and get the job done." I explained, adjusting the strap as it kept moving weirdly around you stomach.

" I will have Guardian Jackson with me, helping with controls and listening through the earpiece. When you leave you will be escorted back safely the easy you came."

Though if anything should go wrong, my two outpost guardians are to get them to safely ." I ordered, looking at the two guardians my father and Guardian Brendan requested.

"Rose! You know that wasn't the deal," Guardian Brendan called from the back of the van. " You agreed with Abe that you would take two extra guardians for letting you leave the property."

Causing me to roll my eyes. He is such a ass kisser, I swear he is worse than Pavel. On the contrary, Pavel has enough balls to handle my father unlike Brendan. "They will be guarding me. If my friends are in danger and I'm safe in the van, their should be absolutely no reason why they can't do the job of protecting those in danger. Besides Guardian Jackson will be with me, there for no reason for you to argue over something so pointless at a time like this."
