So this is it my last chapter :(. I am kinda sad it is finished.

I tried to make this long. It is like 8 pages so yeah :). Hope you like it


EPOLUGUE

RPOV

"She's going to kill you." I stated matter-of-factually.

"I know, but I figure I will just get my bad-ass fiancée to protect me." He said.

"Awww is that right is it." He nodded. My stomach growled and we both laughed checking the clock I realised it was lunch time. "Come on Belikov lets go get some food." We walked to lunch hand-in-hand. It was nice not to have to hide our relationship. He seemed to be thinking the same thing, because just then he pulled me towards him and kissed me.

DPOV

I was so excited to see my family again, it had been four years and I missed them all so much. I knew they were going to love Roza, especially Viktoria. I could tell Rose was nervous about meeting my family no matter how much I told her they would love her.

Alberta had insisted on driving us there for extra protection and I was glad because in the mini-bus – which we had to take so we could fit everyone in on the way back – the driver's seat was separate from the passenger's seat, so it was like we were alone. This gave me some time with Roza before my family got here, because I knew once they were here our alone time would be scarce.

RPOV

Dimitri, Alberta and I were now standing at the airport waiting for Dimitri's family to arrive.

I was thinking about the drive here. Alberta had giggled – yes actually giggled, I know I was shocked to – at our rumpled appearances as we'd stepped out of the mini-bus making both of us blush slightly. I couldn't help but laugh out loud at the not-so-old memory. Both Alberta and Dimitri shot me questioning looks and I just shook my head.

Just then the gates open and passengers started filing out. I realised I was holding my breath as I looked through the crowd for someone who looks like Dimitri. Out of nowhere someone flew at Dimitri, almost tackling him.

"Dimika, I missed you so much."

"I missed you to Viktoria." He said hugging her back. So this was his youngest sister. She looked only a year younger than me, this worried me a little bit. How were they going to react to my age, I know he told them about the difference, but it is not the same as to seeing it in person. "Viktoria I have someone I want you to meet." He said bringing me back to the present. She climbed down from him and stepped back expectantly, as what I assumed to be the rest of his family joined us.

He put his arm around my waist and pulled me close to him. "Guys this is my Roza."

I smiled at them shyly. "Hi." Then Viktoria stepped forward and pulled me into a hug. After I got over my surprise I hugged her back smiling.

"Hi Roza, it's nice to meet you сестра." She said releasing me.

"It means sister." whispered Dimitri in my ear. One by one His family stepped forward to great us; first, well second technically, was his mother.

She hugged Dimitri and kissed his cheek, talking to him in Russian. Then hugged me, "It so nice to finally meet you Roza. Welcome to the family." I blushed at this.

"Thank you Mrs Belikov."

"Please, call me Oleana." She said kindly.

"Okay Oleana." I said and she nodded

Karoline was next. "Is this Anya." said Dimitri referring to the little girl she was holding.

"Yes, would you like to hold her?" His eyes lit up and reached for the baby. Holding her close to him, he whispered to her in Russian.

"She is beautiful just like her mother," said Dimitri handing Anya back to Karoline, who smiled and said.

"I know," Looking down at her daughter. I felt a pang in my chest knowing I would never get to feel that love or devotion, also knowing that I could never give that to Dimitri.

Dimitri seemed to notice because he pulled me closer to him and kissed me before whispering. "Don't worry love; you are all I will ever need." I smiled at him and nodded as Sonya – I figured it was Sonya anyway 'cause Viktoria and Karoline had already been introduced and it obviously wasn't his grandmother.

"Dimika I missed you do much." She said hugging him awkwardly as she was also holding a baby.

"I missed you to Sonya." She handed the baby to Dimitri.

"This is your niece and god daughter Liza Oleana Belikov," said Sonya smiling proudly. I giggled slightly, not because I thought her name was funny, it was beautiful. I was just thinking about Lissa, meeting Liza. Sonya obviously thought I was making fun of her daughter because she shot me a glare.

"I'm sorry," I said stumbling over myself. I really hated this nervous thing. "I didn't mean anything bad, it is just my best friend and Charge is Princess Dragimor, also known as Lissa and I just..." I trailed off not sure how to finish.

She smiled at me and nodded. "Will we get to meet her?"

"Yes if you want to, I know she is dying to meet you."

"Well of course we want to; we want to meet your family to." She said smiling at me.

"Well then yeah Lissa is like my sister and as for my mother well... yeah... I only see her once every few years, but you never know she might be on her way here now to kick your son's ass." I finished with a nervous laugh.

"Your mother is the famous Jannie Hathaway, right?" I nodded. "Should I be concerned for my son's safety?" She asked jokingly.

"Well I think so, but he seems to think that I will be able to protect him." They laughed at this, well the women did. His grandmother was still silent as was the little boy, who I suspected to be Paul.

"Hey look that woman is scary sometimes a man needs protection." Said Dimitri, defending himself, which made us all laugh harder. So he changed the subject. "Why so quiet Paul, Don't you remembered me?" Asked Dimitri.

"He remembers you." Said Karoline. "All he talks about is how he is going to be a guardian like his Uncle Dimka."

"Then what's wrong little man." Asked Dimitri getting down on his knee and opening his arms for Paul. Paul gave him a hug but still wouldn't say anything, I wonder if he was just a quiet kid.

"I know what's wrong with him." Said Viktoria. We all looked at her, "he's got a crush on Rose." She stated matter of factually.

Paul blushed and hid his head on Dimitri's shoulder. Awww that is so cute.

"I told you she was pretty, didn't I?" Said Dimitri standing up. They all nodded and I blushed.

"Yeah Dimitri you win, I will admit defeat." Said Viktoria and we all laughed again, who was obviously the beauty of the family, I mean they were all beautiful just Viktoria more so.

"Hi Paul." I said sticking my hand out for him. "It's nice to meet you."

He shook my hand. "It's nice to meet you to." He said all serious like, he was so cute.

"How old are you?" I asked him.

"Seven and one quarter." You could always expect kids to know the quarters, like they were important.

"Wow, that's cool. Do you like cars?" I said noticing the one he was holding.

He nodded. "Yes I love cars, this is the one Uncle Dimika sent me for my birthday." He wasn't shy any more. Dimitri eyes were shining I could see how happy this made him. "Do you like cars?"

I smiled at him. "I love cars." I said picking him up, he put his arm around my neck. Alberta cleared her throat.

"Um, sorry to interrupt guys, but we have to be leaving soon if we wish to make it back to campus before sunset." She looked like she had tears in her eyes.

"Right sorry Alberta. Guys this is Guardian Pertov she is the head Guardians at St Vladimir's." Alberta this is my family." Said Dimitri.

"Hello everyone it is very nice to meet you." they all replied with 'Nice to meet you to's' and what not.

"Hang on Alberta we are almost ready. Rose this is Yeva, my grandmother." He said and the old lady stepped forward looked at me then said something in Russian which Dimitri replied to his face filling with hope. After a small conversation that I didn't understand at all she stepped forward and hugged him. "Alright lets go get your bags." Said Dimitri smiling.

After we collected the bags, we waited out front while Alberta went to collect the Mini bus. "So Rose tell us about yourself." Said Oleana.

"What do you want to know?" I asked.

"Everything." She replied.

"There's not much to tell, I'm not that interesting." I said with a shrug.

"Don't be so modest Rose you are the most interesting person i have ever met." Said Dimitri.

"Yeah," agreed Viktoria. "Every kid in my school has heard of the famous Rose Hathaway. They say you will be one of the best Guardians ever." This made me blush again.

"Umm okay then..." Just then Alberta pulled up we loaded everything into the back, got the babies strapped in then everyone clamoured in, I was sitting next to Dimitri Leaning on him.

"So..." Viktoria prompted.

"Well like I said there isn't much to tell, My mum dropped me off at the academy when I was a baby and have been there pretty much ever since. I don't know who my dad is, only that he must have had wicked hair 'cause my mum looks more like a carrot."

"Rose there is allot to tell then that and you know it." Prompted Alberta from the front seat.

"Yeah tell us about what you were like at school."

"Do you really want to know?" They all nodded, I shrugged, I just hope they still like me when i was done.

I told them about everything I could think of, about how I met Lissa and my classes and teachers. Alberta added things every now and again, like some pranks I had pulled of others things I had done to get in trouble. Then I told them about when we had run away. Even Dimitri and Alberta were listening closely to what I had to say no one had really ever heard the whole story. Then I told them about Dimitri bringing us back home and everything that had happened since.

They gasped when I told them about the Spokten (spelling soz) incident and Paul asked to see my marks, so I showed them. An hour or so had passed while I was telling them my history and I felt exhausted, I was yawning and could barely keep my eyes open. Telling your life story is exhausting. I wanted to sleep but they were all bombarding me with questions 'cause they didn't want to interrupt me in my story.

"Guys everyone settle down, Roza is exhausted she has been awake for almost two days, she will answer your questions later for now just let her sleep." I smiled god he was sweet.

"Of course sorry Rose, you must be exhausted."

"It is alright Oleana," I tried to say, but I guess it didn't come out right because they all laft and Oleana said

"I'll take that as a yes."

"Don't worry Roza sleep." He said kissing my hair, He laid me down with my head on his lap and stroked my hair. I listed to his family, No wait my family talking in hushed voices as I fell into a deep and peaceful sleep, having the most wonderful dreams.

DPOV

I stroked Roza's hair as she slept on my lap and talked to my family. Filling them in on everything that had happened to me and then about and what had been going on with them. They asked me heap of Questions about anything and everything. Then when they were sure Roza was asleep they started talking about her.

"Dimitri you are right she is most definitely beautiful, but she is young she is still learning growing? Are you sure she is ready for this?" I barely stopped myself from growling at my mother, I knew she meant well and just wanted to make sure I didn't get my heart broken but this still made me upset.

"She my be young, but she knows more then most people twice her age, she had been through a lot and it has aged her... She knows more of what her duty means then most guardians ever do. As for ready, well I can't answer for her, but since I meant her she has only had one relationship, with her friend Mason that died and that was only because she was trying to get over me because I had told her we would never be together. I love her mama, unconditionally and I know she loves me two. I truly believe we are soul mates." Mama looked thoughtfully at us for a moment then noded and smiled.

"That's all I needed to hear."

"Thank you Mama" I said smiling at her. Just then Roza mumbled in her sleep. I love listening to her sleep talk, but sometimes it could get pretty specific. I really hoped this wasn't one of those times it could be embarrassing with my family listening. I could already feel myself blushing thinking about it. They looked at me questioningly. "She sleep talk I explained."

"Hmmm Dimitri, I love you." She said, my whole family smiled. God I hoped it wasn't one of her really god dreams, but of course I wasn't that lucky. "Ohh Dimitri." She moaned, I grimaced, then blushed. They all looked at me which made my blush worsen. She moaned again. "Oh... god... faster." She said. I could feel myself getting turned on even with my family right there.

They however didn't notice, my reaction they were all busy trying to muffle their laughter. "Hmm Dimika have you been a naughty boy?" Said Karoline, giggling. By now I was red as a tomato. I leant down to whisper in her ear.

"Roza," I said shaking her shoulder slightly. "Roza wake-up." I really didn't want to wake her, she was so tired, but I knew this was only the beginning and it could get a lot more... visual if I didn't wake her.

She didn't like waking up after a full nights sleep so I knew this was going to be hard she mumbled and rolled over, almost dumping herself on the floor. I caught her of course and sat her up a bit. She rubbed her eyes and then opened them, looking around the bus in confusion. My family all burst out laughing – except for Paul who was asleep, thank god. - A look of realisation crossed her face, then she blushed hiding her head in my shoulder, I couldn't help but laugh along with them.

RPOV

I felt myself fall before being caught and then sat up. I rubbed my eyes before opening them I was so tired, and I was having such a good dream, why did I have to wake up. I looked around before remembering where we were. Dimitri's family were all looking at me them they all started laughing.

Why were they laughing at me?

Oww... Wait... my dream... Oh my god... I knew I talked in my sleep, both Lissa and Dimitri had teased me about it. God what had I said? I felt myself Blush before hiding my face against Dimitri's chest. I felt him chuckle, well if he was laughing maybe it wasn't to bad. I peeked up at him.

"What did I say?" I asked in a whisper.

"Don't worry Roza it wasn't to bad, you just have a very active... imagination." He said smiling at me, but I could tell there was more.

"Yeah, sure, imagination." Scoffed Viktoria, I blushed and hid my face again. I was mortified, I couldn't believe this. How far had Dimitri let me get before waking me up.

"I'm sorry." I mumbled into his chest to no one in particular.

"Ten more minutes before we reach the Academy" called Alberta, I could hear the laughter in her voice, but at least this served as a distraction.

"Are you guys ready to see my home?" asked Dimitri.

"Yes, where will we be staying?" Asked his mother.

"You will be staying in the Guest lodging, it is almost empty now so it is one room between two."

"Cool dose this mean I get my own room?" Asked Viktoria.

"No, you will be sharing with Sonya. Karoline will get a room to herself with Paul and Anya, of course." She grumbled but accepted it.

"So what about you and Rose where do you guys live?"

"Well we shard a room in the guardians Building." He said blushing slightly. His sister all raised their eyebrows in the way that he was yet to teach me.

"Yes we get a lot of noise complaints coming from their neighbours." piped in Alberta. God I felt like I was gong to die from embarrassment, but it was true we were... noisy. His sisters laughed at this, his mother looked... liked she was trying to tune us out. Well I would be to if I was her.

"Ewww." Viktoria squealed, while giggling. "That is so TMI concerning my older brother, I'm so glad that we are staying in a different building." She shuddered and I giggled. Then we were there.

*** some time later, like a day or so ***

We were in the gym sparring, Viktoria and Paul were sitting to the side watching us. It was a very even fight, but eventually he pinned me, this didn't mean the fight was over. You never give up just because your down. I thought about my options and had my plan in a matter of seconds, it was great knowing your opponents every move, and... weakness. I grinded my hips against his and not only saw but felt his instance response. He lent down to kiss me and I pulled upwards, pretending to go to kiss him but really just getting leverage. When my hands and legs were in the right position I quickly flipped us leaving me on top.

"Roza." He moaned. "That was so not fair."

I lent forward to whisper in his ear. "Your the one always telling me to use my opponents weaknesses against him." He just groaned again. I jumped off him and went to hi-five a laughing Viktoria.

"That was awesome Rose, but if that is how you always fight I don't think we should let Paul watch any more." I laughed at this. We were interrupted then by the rest of the family – Oleana, Yeva, Sonya, Karoline, Lissa, Christian and the babies – entering the gym.

"Hey guys we just wanted to see if you guys wanted to come get lunch with us." Said Lissa who was holding a sleeping Liza. They looked so cute.

"You guys should know by know that I never turn down the offer off food. Just let us get changed first." They all laughed and nodded, saying they would wait.

We were all walking towards the commons, When I saw my mother stalking towards us, she was accompanied by a Moroi man I didn't know. She came to a halt in front of e, she was obviously trying to appear calm. But that there was the key word trying.

"Rose I'd like to speak to you in private please. I folded my arms across my chest, obviously standing my ground. I felt Dimitri's hand hands on my shoulder, either ready to restrain me or comfort me.

"No anything you want to say to me, you can say in front of them. They are my family after all." Both my mum and the random Moroi stiffened a little at that. No one else made a noise, they were all watching our encounter. Oddly though most of them were starring and the Moroi, with a mixture of shock, awe and fear. Who the hell was this guy?

She looked at me for a moment to see if I was serious, then looked at the old man, who nodded. I repeat. What. The. Hell? She sighed. " Fine Rose if that is what you want." I nodded. "Well then, Rose this is Abe Mazur. Your father." WHAT THE FUCK!? Did she just say this old man was my farther??? I was frozen, I couldn't move or speak. I felt Dimitri's hold on my shoulders Tighten and heard most of them gasp.

"Holy shit Rose. No wonder you such a bad-ass with Abe frikkin Mazur as you father." Christian all but shouted before gasping and covering his mouth. He looked scared.

Abe laughed at his reaction. "I guess both our reputations proceed us." I shook my head.

"Nope never heard of you." I said, trying to compose myself.

"Well it seems you are the only one, little girl." Ow, no he didn't.

"Not my fault I've got a better reputation then you, old man." He chuckled again.

"Yes it is true you have got a better reputation then I do, that doesn't mean it's bigger." I didn't have a come-back to that, because, well I had no idea what he was talking about. "Hmm, seems I have left the famous Rose Hathaway speechless." Christian snickered.

"What.. no... Oh, sorry I zoned out there for a second, listening to males talk about there ego does that to me." Christian laughed. I smiled happy with my come back. "So... would you guys like to join us for lunch." They looked at each other then nodded.

We continued to walk to the cafeteria in silence. Whoa I have a dad, I mean I knew I had a father, but now I have a dad like he is actually here. Now my family is whole, I though smiling.

DPOV

Wow, when I saw Jannie storming towards us I never expected this. I thought she was either going to yell at us of kick my ass. When I saw the Moroi behind her I was shocked. I couldn't even think of what Abe Mazur was doing here, not to mention what he was doing with Jannie Hathaway. Then she tells us he is her FATHER! Looking at them I can see the resemblance. I think I should be upset by this, but I'm not. All I can think is 'well at least between me and him everyone will be to scared to even think about hurting her.'

I don't here what they are talking about but all of a sudden we are on the move again.

"Now I have my whole family." Roza mumbled, I don't think she meant to say it out loud, of even noticed she said it, but it made us all smile.
