Chapter 1. Changed

I saw nothing but blackness when I opened my eyes. I didn't know where I was, or what even happened. The only thing I know that right at the moment is, well, I'm in deep shit. Stupid Rose.

I was chained to a chair in a very familiar room. The room was the exact room Dimitri had kept me locked up in when I tried to kill him two months ago. There was some light coming out of the heavily tinted windows, which meant that it was daytime still.

"Hello Roza," said the voice only heard in my dreams lately.

I pulled my head up to gave into his eyes. The deep-brown I fell in love with now replaced with red bloody ones, and the sharp fangs that go along with his cold pale skin. He was standing in the living room with a smirk on his face that I made me want to smack him.

He took a step closer to where I was sitting. I flinched as he came up right in front of me. He took a step back and frowned. "Oh, Rose" he sighed. "You know I won't hurt you."

I shot a glare at him. Even if it was Dimitri, it still isn't. That's the Strigoi part trying to lure me in again. I held my glare for a moment longer. Don't trust him; don't trust him, "I thought silently.

He walked confidently to me and was now standing right in my face. I winced as he buried his face in my neck. I inhaled deeply, and exhaled with a sigh. "I can't wait until I taste your blood again." he murmured.

"I would like to see you try." I said as a threat.

He chuckled. "I'm not going to hurt you Roza," he said sweetly but I could detect the hint of anger in them. He took his face of my neck and was now meeting my eyes. "Besides," He put his hand on my cheek. "You shouldn't worry anymore." I bit down into my neck, hard.

I screamed in pain, then the endorphins kicked in and I fell into a pool of pleasure from the high. I started to feel hazy as my blood was being sucked away. I know what's going to happen now, and in a few moments, I'll be with Lissa's family.

But a warm, thick, liquid was brought to my lips. I felt my throat was dry so I drank it obediently. It tasted good. And it kept on getting better, and better with each drop. I felt the liquid stop coming to my lips as I fell into a deep oblivion.
