Rose's POV

Pinning him down with my knees on either side of him while my hands held his wrists up above his head, I glazed thoughtfully into his endless, dark brown eyes that seemed to read my every thought. My long hair had fallen from it's tie and was now curtaining both our faces from the outside world as I leaned over him.

For once, he let me keep him pinned instead of rolling over and switching us around like he normally did. I should of taken that as a hint that he would not be letting me leave until he got some answers.

"Tell me," He said softly. "I can't banish your troubles unless you tell me what is wrong."

Damn him! He knows that I can't resist him when he is looking like that. I can't lie to him normally, but when he is looking like this..

I want to tell him, oh so badly I wanted to tell him, but I got to keep this a secret. I can't tell him about Lissa.

"I can't," I whispered back, knowing my whisper was a sing of weakness that only he would understand. "I can't tell you."

"Why?" He whispered as well, letting himself be on the same level as I.

Only he could understand how much that meant to me, him letting weakness show as well. If only I could tell him.

"I.." Letting go of his wrist, I leaned away and sat back on his firm, lower abs. Letting my arms fall down lifelessly against my sides, I let some of my hair cover my eyes so I do not have to look at him. "I should go.."

"Roza.." His voice halted any possible movement I thought of making from my comfortable spot. His now freed hands reached over and gently brushed against my hands before landing on my sides, letting his fingers dig slightly into my hips. The contact make a shiver of pleasure run up my spine, but I was as stubborn as he.

"Dimitri.." Placing my hands on top of his, I gently squeezed them, which lead to him digging his fingers deeper. Pleasureville indeed. "You do not know how much I want to tell you, but..There is too much at risk."

"Your in pain," He pointed out, finally getting to his point. "Daily. Everyday, you come in with more and more bruises not left by other novices, more and more scars, more and more bags under your eyes from sleepless nights..Your so thin now, sometimes I wonder if I will have something to even hold onto the next day. None of this is good for you, and I worry about you. Roza, let me help. Let me quiet your demons, destroy your nightmares and clean your wounds. Roza, my sweet Roza..Let me help."

How is it possible that this God is mine? What did I ever do to deserve such an amazing guy? However, he would leave me if he ever knew. No one as perfect as he could be with someone as weakly as I.

I could handle this, I needed to. It was my duty as her guardian. If being her guardian meant beating me senseless daily, then I would deal with it. Their needs came first. They came first. Lissa came first, not Rose. Lissa.

Letting my eyes glaze at the wall in front of us, I take a deep breath and am about to tell Dimitri something, anything, when a sudden cawing from outside reminds me that I am in school. Quick as lightning, who knew I could be that fast, I sadly rip myself from his grasp and run to my bag. I should of known that would not work though, for the next second he was behind me, his arms wrapped around my wrist.

My name whispered in my ear, his Russian accent thick and loving, coxing me into wanting him even more than I thought possible. Passion trying to blind me from my thoughts.

For a moment, I let that passion blind me. Let myself drop my bag and turn around in his arms. Let my arms encircle his neck before hungrily letting my lips attack his in a passionate kiss. He responded back just as hungrily, the passion his as just as much as mine. Our tongues danced a forbidden dance, both trying to gain dominance in the heat. His hands were buried in my hair with a gently tug which my arms had traveled down and encircled his waist, letting my hand run up and down his back with my nails slightly scratching.

This whole forbidden love was hard, but oh so wonderful, better than others.

I should of known this could not last. As we continued to kiss, I soon heard her voice in my head.

Rose. I need you. Lissa's voice said in my head, malice lacing her words. In real life she was able to hide her true feelings, but not in our bond.

I needed to go to her. Now.

Breaking my kiss from Dimitri, I looked up at him sadly with our lips only a few inches apart from each other.

"Lissa needs me," I said as softly as possible before gently brushing my lips against his one last time.

"Roza.."

"I love you," I interrupted before he could continue. Letting my lips graze his one last time, I broke from his grasp and leaned down to reached for my bag.

As I straightened back up, he gently grasped a strand of my hair from in front of my face and placed it behind my ear.

"Find me," He commented, knowing I would understand his meaning.

Nodding, I smiled at him before turning away from my love and leaving to gym.

Oh, Dimitri, how I wish I could tell you about the last two weeks.

How I wish I could tell you about my two weeks in hell.
