I followed Rose back to America. She didn't know. My mother did but she didn't.

Several weeks later…..

VPOV

Lissa turned Dimitri back into a Dhampir. This can't be happening. I have my big brother back. I ran down my hall, hoping they'd let me in. I had to see him. I had to make sure it was him. Mom would flip. I ran faster.

"Lissa!" I said as I walked past her, "Do you think they'll let me see him. I mean he is MY older brother"

"they might just don't Rose know okay Viktoria?"

I nodded and sprinted past her. I ran past Guardian Tanner. I couldn't Believe it.

"Meredith"

"Yes Guardian Belikov?"

"Can I see Dimka?"

She nodded and I started to run down to his cell.

"Dimitri!"

I heard the foot steps. Opening my eyes, I saw what looked to be my little sister, Viktoria. I got up from where I was and walked over to where she was standing.

"Vika….." I whispered, "is it really you?"

I watched as her eyes started to fill with tears as she nodded. She looked down the hall to the guardian on guard. They walked down and let her in amazingly. She immediately hugged my tightly.

"Oh my God Dimka….I thought Rose and Visalisa were lying…." She sobbed.

"Shh Viktoria it's ok"

I knew that this was hard for her because Rose had told them. I might kill her for that later. She hurt my little sister. But I also had Adrian to worry about. He prayed on the beautiful girls here at court, my sister was probably one of them.

"I better get going…"She whispered brokenly, " I have a charge now and I need to go protect him."

"Who's your charge?"

"Adrian Ivashkov"

"Vika do me a favor and be careful around him." I told her seriously before releasing her.

She nodded and ran out. I knew she was still crying. Guardian Belikov, my little sister was all grown up. Who'd guess I'd be here to see it. I sure as hell didn't. I sat down on the cot and noticed a picture on the floor. I was of Viktoria and I when she was younger and I had just graduated. She didn't want me to leave that day. Neither did I.

I walked into Adrian's room after seeing Dimitri. My eyes were probably blood shot but I didn't care. I was just happy my brother wasn't a Stragoi anymore.

"Viktoria" Adrian said softly opening his door, "What's wrong?"

"I just saw Dimitri is all" I whispered brokenly.

He pulled me toward him as I started crying again. He knew how much Dimitri meant to me. Dimka might get made if we ever got to be more than friends but I didn't care, I just wanted to stay in his arms. Secure and safe.
