Rose POV
I turn around quickly to see the blonde strigoi sink his fangs into Dimitri's neck. I scream as I struggle to escape my mothers grasp. I break free and charge back into the caves. I ignore the shouts at me to get out of there. My thoughts are only focused on one thing. Dimitri. I have to get to Dimitri. The first strigoi approaches me but the anger coursing through my veins alows me to stake him easily and continue towards Dimitri. I reach him and pull the blonde strigoi of him. I'm fuming with rage and hatred. I stake him. My mother and a couple of others had followed me into the cave and are finishing off the other strigoi. I kneel down to Dimitri and start sobbing, I clutch st him but am yanked off by my mother. I can't tell if he's breathing. I start fighting but am pulled away kicking and screaming. My last thought before I black out is Dimitri.
I wake up to a white ceiling and beeping. It takes me a couple of minutes to get my bearings. Then it all comes rushing back to me. The caves, the fight, the strigoi, Dimitri. Panic settles in and I start sobbing. A doctor comes in and sedated me before I can do any damage to myself. When I wake again my mother is sitting in a chair next to my bed with a weary expression on her face. She noticed that I'm awake and launches herself at me and engulfed me in a hug. I'm startled at this sudden display off affection. Before I can say anything she starts lecturing me. "Don't you ever do anything like that ever again Rosemarie! Do you hear me, do you know how much you scared us!". I start sobbing again, she just wraps her arms around me and whispers soothing words. Who is this? and what has she done with Janine Hathaway. It's a while before I can get any coherent word out. "Dimitri?" I ask. "Don't worry," she says, "He's fine," and with that relief I fall back into a restless sleep.
