Chapter 4
Dimitri's POV
I stood there, watching the doctors. They all were yelling at one another
"How does a guardian get stabbed with a silver stake? I thought they got taught how to use them, she probably tripped and did this herself."
DID THIS HERSELF? These damn mori doctors didn't know anything. I couldn't help but stare at the blood that was continuing to spill out of her slim body. Her delicate face was so pale, her hand hung over the table, red smudges all over it. I heard someone run in, and I turned around. It was Lissa. She pushed past me.
"Let me heal her, let me try again!" Her voice was hysterical
I stepped forward, touching her arm lightly. "Lissa." I tried to sound calm, to put on my strong face, but I was holding back tears.
"No." she whimpered. She turned, crumbling into my arms. I rocked her back and forth, trying to comfort her. My Roza, I dare a glance once more. And this time, I couldn't hold back, closing my eyes and trying to stay strong for Lissa.
Rose's POV
While I was floating in this state of blackness, I suddenly fell into something, that hadn't happened in a long time. I fell into Lissa's mind. Maybe I was dreaming it, or maybe it was real, I had no idea. But I could see myself, lying limply in a hospital bed; Dimitri lay next to me stroking my cheek. Lissa was watching from the doorway, letting Dimitri have a few more moments of peace with me. He kissed my forehead. Then I saw a long tear slip down his cheek. My strong, sexy, guardian boyfriend, let a tear go. I had never seen that before, and thought I would never. "I can't lose you." He whispered, but with Lissa's strong hearing, she heard it all. "I almost lost you before, but I can't lose you Roza. I need you. Without you, I'm nothing…" he said panic and sorrow still filled his voice.
Lissa knocked on the door. Dimitri quickly wiped his cheek and sat up.
"Let me try once more. Please, maybe this time it will work." Dimitri sighed.
"Lissa. I don't…" he couldn't finish. And I knew why. The stake, it had done bad damage. I wondered if I would wake up. I hoped I would.
Lissa walked up to me anyways, and now set her hands on my stomach. I felt the warm tingle of her magic. And my eyes fluttered open, now in my own head.
Incredible pain struck me. I rolled over onto my side, closing my eyes as tight as I could. Trying to wish the pain away. Letting out a gasp as the burning sensation pushed hardy on the body.
"Roza!" he touched my arm, it was so light, but still made my entire body burn.
I wanted to say something but the pain took over every emotion in my body.
"It worked! A little at least!" Lissa cried. She sat on my bed, and put her hands on my again. But nothing happened.
"Rose,You have to relax, it will ease the pain, just try and relax." He voice was strained and filled with panic
I tried to stop moving, relax my muscles but the pain didn't settle. I took in deep breaths. Dimitri pressed his hand to my arm. "Rose I'm right here. Just breathe, okay? The steak's magic should wear off soon." I sure hope so I thought.
After staring into his eyes for a few more longing minutes I fell back into my sleep land, drifting in and out. Whenever I was awake Dimitri was there, stroking my face, telling me he loved me. After what was probably several hours of this, I finally woke up.
Dimitri looked tired, his brown eyes lingered with sleep deprivation.
I reached out and touched his hair, slipping a loose strand behind his ear. He climbed carefully onto the hospital bed. He wrapped his arms around me. He cradled me in his grasp. Speaking to me in Russian which he knew always calmed me.
"The bond, it's, it's there." I said weakly
"Hm?" he said snuggling my body closer to his.
"I slipped into her mind." I replied.
"Are you sure it wasn't just a dream?" he asked
"I'm sure." I whispered back
He kissed my neck. "We can talk about that later. You need more rest Roza. I'll be here when you wake up. I promise darling" I slipped once again back into my daze of sleep, but even sleeping. I could feel his body next to mine, his steady breathing, and the murmur of his voice.
