The training part," I guessed. "Yup. You're going to be Dimitri's partner. " A moment of funny silence fell, probably not noticeable to anyone except Dimitri and me. Our eyes met. "Guarding partner," Dimitri clarified unnecessarily, like maybe he too had been thinking of other kinds of partners.
Dimitri should have been here with me. That's how it was supposed to have been.
VAMPIRE ACADEMY: Rose- See something you like? Dimitri- Get dressed. LAST SACRIFICE: Rose- See something you like? Dimitri- Lots
It was impossible to get the Dimitri and Tasha thing out of my head, but at least packing and getting ready made sure I didn't devote 100 percent of my brain power to him. More like 95 percent.
Rose: "If you'd teach me to swear in Russian, I might have a new appreciation for it. "Dimitri: "You swear too much already. "Rose: "I just want to express myself. "Dimitri: "Oh, Roza… You express yourself more than anyone else I know. "- Rose Hathaway & Dimitri Belikov (Frostbite)
I left her there crying as I walked toward the gate. A piece of my soul had died when Dimitri had fallen. Turning my back on her now, I felt another piece die as well. Soon there wouldn't be anything left inside me.
That's what I was supposed to say.
Dimitri: "They weren't supposed to let you in. "Rose: "Yeah. Well, I kind of found a work-around. "Dimitri: "Of course you did. "- Dimitri Belikov and Rose Hathaway (Spirit Bound)
The only thing better than imagining Dimitri carrying me in his arms was imagining him shirtless while carrying me in his arms.
Her eyes flicked over the cards, looked at Dimitri, then looked back at the cards. Her expression was blank. "You will lose what you value most, so treasure it while you can. " She pointed to the Wheel of Fortune card. "The wheel is turning, always turning.
Dimitri: "Do not do that again. "Rose: "Don't kiss me back then. "- Dimitri Belikov & Rose Hathaway (Frostbite)
My hatred notwithstanding, I had to admit Dimitri Beli-whatever was pretty smart
I've given up on you. . . Love fades. Mine has.
The other problem in my life is Dimitri. He's the one who killed Natalie, and he's a total badass. He's also pretty good-looking. Okay—more than good-looking. He's hot—like, the kind of hot that makes you stop walking on the street and get hit by traffic.
It had to be one of the weirdest things in the universe that Lissa had never come close to suspecting my feelings for Dimitri but that Adrian had figured it out.
No, I can just read you. Finally. I can't believe how blind I was. I can't believe I never noticed. Victor's comment. . . he was right. " She glanced off at the sunset, then turned her gaze back on me. A flash of anger, both in her feelings and her eyes, hit me. "Why didn't you tell me?" she cried. "Why didn't you tell me you loved Dimitri?
Rose Hathaway: "You see something you like?" Dimitri Belikov: "Get dressed.
I wasn't fooled. He was avoiding looking at me. "There's nothing to talk about. " "I knew you'd say that. Actually, it was a toss-up between that and 'I don't know what you're talking about. '" Dimitri sighed.
Fortunately for Dimitri, I had his back.
I fought against her, trying to mount some kind of defense, but it was like fighting Dimitri on crack.
