You will get your wish Abe is very perceptive and even the little things he catches. He will have a chapter from JPOV that he reveals a lot to her. That will be in Chapter 11.

1) I do not want to give too much away but you should know I believe in soul mates until the end. THEREFORE, they will be making their way back together.

2) Yes, she will because she is a villain in this story who cannot accept she was bested!
3) An Alien? Just playing, I have not really decided I will reveal that soon though promise!

Chapter 10

(RPOV)

I sat on the edge of my plush messy bed just staring at the door. I did not go down to tell everyone goodbye. I could only hope that my absence was written off as hormones or exhaustion. The truth was I was too nervous to pretend that everything was okay. How did he know? He was perceptive I knew but I had been careful. None of my usual jokes about how a god knocked me up. No, vague references to those eyes that haunted my dreams or his aftershave. I had been on my best behavior no matter how many times I wanted to bust. Still, this was my soul mate. Of course, that ass hat could still read me like a book. I knew the moment that they left he would find his way to me. I could run. I could somehow wiggle my way out to the garden if it had not started to snow. I could escape to another room. No. I am Rose. I can handle Dimitri! I thought to myself. The memory of his honest rare smile earlier caught me off guard again. I did not want to love him anymore. I should not care about his smile but sadly, deep down I knew I did. I always would. I sat chewing on my nail as he entered my room without knocking. I looked him up and down and for a minute, I had traveled back in time. My breath caught on his familiar smell. He looked like he had just gotten out of the shower his hair dampened still. Something about his aura was radiating the way it had before the attack. This man confused me each day. He was staring at me guardian mask on but, with softer eyes.

"Why?" I muttered in almost a whisper. I wanted to know why he had changed but I quickly realized it was Natasha and righted myself. "Why, did you stay Dimitri? Alexi and Eddie could have handled my protection detail.

"It's my shift Rose." He answered calmly, "Plus, we need to talk away from others and prying ears." Of course. We always have to hide from others.

"Worried I will get in the way?" I asked voice full of snarky attitude. It was the only way I knew to hide my pain. I was truly getting tired of second fiddle. His face scrunched up in a wince quickly before he wiped it away.

"No, Rose you're never in the way. You know me better than that." He replied sitting in a chair backwards his duster flopping behind him. "Why, did you not tell me?"

"I thought you already knew Comrade?" I asked calmly rubbing my belly for comfort.

"I did but, you did not answer me Rose." He stated firmly. He was so calm it was frustrating.

"Why would I tell you? You made it perfectly clear how you felt about me. Should I have subjected my children to that? On top of that we both know you would not have believed me." I said with a small huff in a "are you kidding me" tone. I took in his facial expressions he did not look surprised by my words.

"It would have been different. I would have believed you." He stated flatly.

"You would not have. I know what people say about me. What a blood whore. Such a liar. And Different? Oh, so on the off chance you had believed me; you would have been with me from obligation? Only to wake up later hating all three of us. No thank you I would rather they not know that betrayal if I can help it." I said picking at the hem of my pregnancy shirt.

"I did not hate you Rose. I made a mistake when I did what I did. I would never have if I had known what was going to happen to you!" His tone was much to tame for his wild eyes. He was fighting for control.

"That I would get knocked up?" I asked incredulously.

"No Roza that you would almost die! Do you have any clue what I had been dealing with when I found out? I wanted to die. I knew I had driven you away with my lies. You fought hard for your life with no back up. I should have been there. I could have saved you from it. You would never have been lost for even that minute. I know all of that is my fault. I wanted to change what I had done the minute you left because it felt like something was ripping from inside me." He said in a low growl tears streaming freely in his eyes. His eyes were distant as he remembered everything. My soul hurt to see him like this but, I was still angry.

"So, ripped apart by my death yet, you found your way to her bed didn't you Dimitri. Don't play games with me." I hissed immediately taking deep breaths. "I do not remember screwing anyone in my searches for you!"

"As usual Roza, you have no idea what you are talking about. I fell to my knees after seeing that article I could not think I could not breathe. Your death broke me. I was constantly wasted and stumbling around I would think you were with me. Do not tell me how I felt. I did not seek Natasha out. I was happy to live how I was. After a funeral, I drank to the point I blacked out. I do not remember anything at all. The next day I woke up with her in my bed. Two weeks later, she was pregnant and I got sober and became her guardian. I have not touched her since that night. I don't love her I have only ever loved one person in my life." He growled standing to get closer to me. His eyes were still stuck in a memory and I could see him start to shake. I did not realize that my own eyes had betrayed me. I did not speak for a few moments letting his words sink in. She used him. How could she target him when he was so grief stricken? Was she truly pregnant? After one time? She could be I was. But then again we both were filled with spirit. What were the odds? Dimitri was not lying I could see all the raw emotion in his eyes. I had broken the god and, it disgusted me. I reached up cupping his cheek, as he sank to his knees on my floor, with my palm staring into his brown eyes.

"It was not your fault. I made the decision to leave. I made my own enemies and they got the drop end of story." I said firmly. I could not talk about what happened but I needed him to understand I did not blame him for that part.

"I should have been there." He muttered placing his hand over mine to hold it in place.

"What did I just say Dimitri Belikov." I growled glaring at him. He dropped it wiping away my tears. "Thank God for Lamaze." I muttered with a shaky laugh. He nodded. "How did you know?" I asked confused.

"I suspected you had not been with anyone else. After listening to your mom and the Queen my suspicion grew. Especially, after hearing you told everyone Zeus did it. I was just waiting for the right moment." He said with a sigh.

"Damn it. Leave it to those to old women gossip." I growled. He quirked an eyebrow at me. "What?"

"Nothing Roza, so how about you tell me now." He said calmly.

"You already know." I said as if it were obvious.

"I want to hear it from you Roza." He said holding me with his eyes. Why?

"Congratulation's, you're going to be a dad in a few months of two hellacious twins." I muttered resisting the urge to roll my eyes. For, some reason this was important to him. Once again, Dimitri stunned me with a wide true smile. One I had seen rarely but melted my heart. Maybe, we could work this out. Maybe. I thought to myself.

"Thank you." He said finally dropping his hand. I removed my own slowly. I only nodded in response. I felt like a huge weight had been lifted off my shoulders. Now, I owed Alexi an apology great. Still, it was worth it. I could not believe the turn this talk took. I had fully prepared to lay into him a hundred different ways but he had been blaming himself enough for us both. I looked off towards the window for a moment. It was snowing. I stood and went to the window. The snow was so white and pure. I felt for Alberta being out in it but I was glad to look at its beauty through the window. I placed a hand to the window and one on my belly. If I looked hard, enough I could imagine a mini me and Dimitri playing roughly in it. I smiled to myself at the thought. I imagined my son would let my daughter win the snowball fight and help her make snow angels. I could feel Dimitri behind me staring at me. Could we become a family? Would he watch with me or, would we go join in? Would he be happy? Could I finally have found my first seat? Where does Tasha play in? So, many questions ran through my mind I did not know which to think on first. I grabbed my head as the headache began.

"How about you lay down that was a lot to take in." Dimitri suggested leading me back to the bed. I nodded in agreement laying down. He pulled the blankets up as I began to drift. He must have thought I was asleep already because he placed a kiss on my forehead. I let the blackness engulf me as his scent wash over me. Now I would sleep. Later I could think.
