CHAPTER 2
PLANNING
ROSE'S POV
I sighed and ran a hand through my long, dark hair. Planning a wedding is harder work than I ever thought. Court looked gorgeous as ever, especially with the moonlight casting down. Lately it seemed nothing was going my way. The dress I picked out was sold to someone else because the store forgot I had wanted it, the flowers that I and Dimitri decided would look the best couldn't be ordered in time for the wedding, and the last straw was when I found out the royal cake maker was away on vacation. I felt almost as if the universe didn't want me and Dimitri to finally achieve our happily ever after. Dimitri's family would be flying in tomorrow, and my stomach twisted at the thought of seeing Victoria again. The last time I had seen her in Russia, our farewell had been rocky to say the least. Dimitri hadn't been thrilled with his sister's behavior, and even understood why I did and what I did, which is exactly what I thought when I intervened. "Rose!" I turned and saw Lissa running toward me. "Liss slow down!" I laughed, "You're gonna get yourself hurt. Not to mention you aren't exactly behaving like a queen right now." I teased. Rolling her green eyes Lissa caught her breath and started speaking excitedly, "You'll never believe it, those flowers you guys picked out, I just called a store located in Tulsa, Oklahoma and they're express mailing them! They should be here tomorrow night!" Lissa looked radiant, her platinum blonde hair falling in waves over her shoulders. She really did look like a queen or an angel. I let out a yell, smiling as Lissa and me embraced and jumped around. "That is so wonderful Liss! Thank you, thank you, thank you! That's one less thing to worry about." We had stopped our initial reaction of excitement, but I knew I was still grinning like a fool.
Quickly after my recovery, and Lissa's coronation, I took over the position of head royal guardian. My position put me over every guardian not only in court, but everywhere. The only guardians I had no control over were the ones on the council. Lissa had been pushing for a council to be made for non-royal moroi and dhampirs, but so far she wasn't having too much luck. Many of the traditional royals wanted to keep things how they are, and have made it their mission to oppose Lissa's every decision. Lissa and I decided to stroll through the streets, discussing various wedding ideas, when suddenly Guardian Kiaden Traveston came running towards them. "What's going on?" I demanded, putting myself between the guardian and Lissa as I calmly surveyed the area. "Guardian Hathaway, it's Guardian Belikov; he's been in an altercation and is in medical. I need you to come with me right away." The guardian panted. It was clear he'd been running a while, a thin sheet of sweat was coating his forehead. My heart dropped. "Not Dimitri, please not Dimitri. I can't lose him so quickly, let it be something minor." I thought, my feet frozen in place. I felt a shove, and quickly looked to Lissa's determined expression. "What are you doing Rose? I'll be fine, go see what's wrong with Dimitri!" Lissa practically screamed at me. Shaking off the initial shock of the news, I nodded and gestured for the guardian to lead the way
