Since my former instructor-turned-lover had been turned into an evil, undead vampire, he'd also become a sort of leader among them-something I'd helped speed along when I killed off his former boss. There is no place in this world you can hide from me. I tried not to let his words get to me, though it was kind of impossible to not be creeped out by something like that. I'm watching.ĭespite his 'warm wishes' I didn't really find the letter inspiring as I tossed it onto my bed and blearily left the room. With graduation, you'll be turned out of the Academy, and once you're outside the wards, I'll find you. Of course, that means you'll be all that much more of a challenge when we meet again-which I'll definitely enjoy.Īnd we will be meeting again. You're the best in that group, and by this evening you'll wear your promise mark. If they're actually making you take them, it's a waste of everyone's time. Nonetheless, I wish you well today as you take your trials-not that you need any luck. Besides, even if I forced your awakening, you now have so many enemies among the Strigoi that one of them would kill you.

Your refusal to join me in eternal life and love leaves no other course of action, and I can't allow someone as dangerous as you to live. It's something I regret having to do, but you've made my choice inevitable. I can picture all of those things perfectly, as well as how it'll be when I take your life from this world. Without dreams, I have to be content with my own imagination-which is almost as good. I'd dream about the smoothness of your skin and the fierceness of your lips when we kiss.

I'd dream about the way you smell and how your dark hair feels like silk between my fingers. It's a shame, because if I could dream, I know I'd dream about you. One of the few downsides to being awakened is that we no longer require sleep therefore we also no longer dream.
