Chapter One-RPOV
I couldn't believe what the crazy woman before me was saying.
"What do you mean he's leaving?" I asked my mother. We were standing in the hallway of the ski lodge near my room. I was walking back from lunch with Lissa and Christian when I ran into her.
"Guardian Belikov has been asked by a royal moroi to protect her and he has accepted her request." This royal probably would have a shit-load of money just lying around and would pay Dimitri tonnes for his kick-ass guarding skills. The man was a god after all, who wouldn't want him? I prayed in my head that it would be anybody but Tasha. Please not Tasha. Please not Tasha.
"What royal asked for him?"
"Tasha Ozera. She's hmm... interested in him?" She said this unsurely, and in a bit of a disgusted-like tone. "And she is willing to have dhampir children with him." I could feel my pulse speed up in my skull. I just couldn't bear the thought of Dimitri leaving. Leaving me.
Snapping back into reality my mother sighed. "Anyway, I need to get back to work." And like that she turned on her heels and walked down the hallway.
Later that day, I ran into Dimitri- the source of all my problems. I had been listening to my iPod and didn't even realise he was in front of me until we collided. And then he grabbed my hand.
"Roza...What's wrong?" He asked. Instinctively I moved my hand to my face as if this offered some sort of protection- and I felt moisture on my cheek. God dammit- I was crying and I hadn't even realised.
"Nothing. There's nothing wrong." I should have said. But instead I said "When were you going to tell me that you were leaving?" Ok, I didn't say this, I kind of yelled.
"Who told you that?" He asked, dropping my hand and taking a step backwards.
"My mum told me. When are you leaving?"
"First thing tomorrow." He said, looking away.
"So it is true. And about Tasha? Who's going to train me?"
"Yes i'll be with Tasha and we will be together in her home in Seattle." He replied.
"And me?" I asked.
Dimitri sighed and looked right at me. "You're on your own now Rose." And with that, he walked right by me, each step hurting more than the last.
DPOV
Each step I took walking away from her hurt me more and more. It was like a slap in the face. And the pain wouldn't go away. I was walking away from the person I couldn't love, but I had to. Being with her could destroy everything we both worked for. So I had to tell the biggest lie to myself, and convince myself that this was the right thing to do- for both of us. But sometimes, life is cruel enough for that to not happen.
Before I turned the corner, I took a look back for the last time I would ever see her.
But Rose was gone.
