Thoughts
Chapter 21 Time for action
Dpov
Abe and I walked as quickly as possible back to Lissa's. He had a new determination in his step and I had to know why. I grabbed him by the arm, and made him face towards me.
"What is it? What did you figure out?" I asked forcefully.
"I know who has her Dimitri. I should have known all along, who else would it be?" I was growing impatient now he being Abe just had to drag this out and I could not deal with that right now. If he knew I needed him to tell me now so I could go find Rose.
"Damn it Abe! Spit it out!"
"ROBERT!" As soon as he shouted this I started to run towards Lissa's apartment. I had to see if Sonya had contacted her again. I thought Robert was harmless. I thought letting him go would be fine and we would never hear from him again. If I was wrong then it was my fault. I had let him go, thinking him to be harmless. I got to Lissa's place and pounded on the door. Yelling for her to open. She opened the door and I shoved my way in. Sonya got up and started yelling while grabbing her coat.
"You have to find Jenkins. Rose said it was him, him and Robert have her. She said he was holding her at Jenkins place. SHE'S HERE IN COURT DIMITRI!" She was yelling this as we both were running out of the building.
I had no plan but to get to Jenkins apartment and as fast as I could. I soon left Sonya behind, but it was probably for the best. She was not going to want to see what was going to happen next. I was going to tear both of them apart. I wasn't going to stop until all their limps were torn off, they would beg to have me stop. No one was to touch my Roza.
I took the stairs to Jenkins apartment, flying up the 16 flights of stairs taking them 3 at a time. I got to the top and pulled out my gun. If Robert saw me, or should I say sensed me first he would use his spirit on me, then I would get no where and fast. I was hoping with my gun I could stop him and stop him fast.
I got to the door and didn't even think things through, I kicked it opened and barged in and I saw nothing. Nothing looked out of place. Everything seemed well right. No this couldn't be wrong, Rose told Sonya where she was, and Sonya seemed certain of it. I went into the bedroom and found nothing. I heard something from the closet and my heart beat sped up. I opened it and out fell out Jenkins.
His limb body and pale face telling me he was dead. But what caught my attention was the red envelope taped to his chest. Once again it was that neat handwriting, and once again it was for me. As I was about to reach for it I heard an army of guardians run through the door. They stopped in their tracks and looked at me over Jenkins body.
Then they all lunged at me. They thought I had killed him so they tried to restrain me. But I was too much for them. I started tossing guardians aside. Yelling and screaming for them to let me go. This just caused more of them to jump on me and pin me on the floor. It was a high pitched screech that stopped them from further restraining me. I looked up and saw it came from Lissa, who was out in the hall sounding all too much like the queen.
"You let me in this instant! He didn't do anything! YOU LISTEN TO ME NOW!" Soon after everyone started to calm down.
Before I knew it I was sitting out in the hall with Lissa and Christian leaning over me asking what I had found. I couldn't answer them at first trying to regain my composure. Lissa held my hands, and I felt a surge of hot and cold rush through me. I had no idea what it was, but suddenly I felt better, calm, and I could function again. She had sent spirit into me to make me better, she knew I needed to focus and she helped me out. I smiled at her as a thank you and she pulled me into a hug. Then I remembered the letter.
"There was a letter on him, I need it," I got up quickly and pushed through the crowd. The guardians were all gathered over the kitchen counter reading the letter.
"Belikov, you need to calm down. You calm down and we will give you the letter." Hans was trying to hold me back.
"OK, fine I'm calm let me see it." I took a deep breath in as Hans handed it to me.
Dimitri
Now I've changed my mind. I'm going to need Rose alive for now. I'm going to need her to get rid of all of you. Long live the queen, long live the king. Long live you. Watch your back. Those closest to you are usually the first to back stab you. Jenkins is gone now, but I have more where that came from.
Sincerely,
Robert Duru
P.S Rose is being very cooperative... You'd be so proud.
I finally let out my breath, and just felt numb. I stared at the letter for a few more minutes before Lissa grabbed it from me. She gasped but I couldn't focus anymore. My mind had finally hit a state of exhaustion. I had been so close to getting my Rose. So close to saving her, but he was a step ahead of me. He couldn't have gotten too far. Not with the whole court on alert now.
But now we had more enemies than we thought. And he had threatened the queen. Things were about to get serious. He had messed up there when he thought it would be a good thing. No one in this court was going to let anything happen to Lissa. Everyone was now going to be looking for him. And along with him we would find Roza. He thought he needed her to get away with all this so he was going to keep her close.
And he was right I was proud of my Rose. She was cooperating but not for the reason he thought. No Rose knew better, she had to work with him, make him somewhat trust her. That way she could learn his plan, and make him make a mistake. She wouldn't let him harm Lissa or anyone she loved. He had officially pissed her off, and everyone else including me.
I made sure Lissa and Christian were brought some place safe and I headed back to my apartment. I couldn't help but smile. Robert was going down and he didn't even know it. He thought he had gotten away with it. But he had made his first mistake. In his hast he had left Rose alone for enough time for her to write a note. He gave her enough time to write a note and hide it. She also left it in a place where she knew I would find it. As I entered the apartment I smiled again and pulled out the note.
Dimitri,
I love you... I'm fine. And I'm playing his game. He's going for Tasha. Look underground. And don't forget where the stars look the clearest. He's bringing me there. In 2 nights. Gethers, Martin, Grant, and Thomas are all rats.. See you soon my love.
Roza
I called Hans directly not trusting anyone else. I told him about Tasha and he said he would up security with her. I also told him where we would have to go in 2 nights. And finally I told him who was working with Robert. He said he was going to have them arrested and we were to question them together.
Robert had made his worse and final mistake. He had trusted Rose. And everyone knows when you piss off Rose and she agrees with you that you should back down. Like Rose had always told me paybacks a bitch.
I know kinda more a filler chapter! But can you imagine a pissed off Dimitri barging in! Swoon! Review! You guys rock!
