Chapter 4

Weeks had flown by and there had been no notice of her, Lissa had been punishing herself in worry but not as much as Dimitri had been. Her mother had notified her father of the circumstances and he had flown back to the court to be with her. Dimitri was suitably shocked to find that Abe Muzur was Rose's father but then again it made much more sense than most thing about Rose.

The queen had of course been notified of the circumstances that had happened on the doorsteps of the court and due to the fact that it was a recently graduated guardian that had been turned made other royals reconsider their vote in the new age law and thus it was withdrawn and no longer a law, all of us thinking that this was the only good thing that could have come from this tragedy.

Dimitri mostly stayed within the sights of Lissa making sure that nothing could harm her and he was by her side when any news came and it was the 23rd day when news finally found its way to them through Abe who had just come into the room with Janie and his guardians.

the room was silent, Tasha an Christian sitting on the lounge with Lissa on Christians Lap. Eddie and Mia sitting on the floor next to each other, no one had seen Adrian since the event though his mother assured us that he was alive just drowning his sorrows within a bottle of some alcoholic beverage.

"I have had word on her where a-bouts." Abe said as he leaned against the wall with Janie next to him.

Everyone looked up at him as though it would be easier to hear what he was saying.

"She met with a Strigoi in Turkey by the name of Kövan Vasigori, I have not ever heard of her before though it is said that she is a large name amongst the undead and is very had to get on her good side."Abe finished looking down at his hands.

Everyone looked lost everyone that is except Dimitri who had froze in his seat at the mention of his name though no one but Eddie noticed as a trained Dhampir would have.

"Dimitri what do you know about her?" Eddie asked standing up from his place on the floor.

"I have heard of her from when, from when I was turned, she is a big shot, rich as the richest person in the world," He paused sucking in a deep breath. "She buy the assets of any strigoi that have been killed, she aquires them and sells them off to the highest bidder, those who are looking for an empire to run usually make a deal with her, however it has been know that once before she took a liking to a Dhampir and had him turned then giving him and empire out of the goodness of her heart. She trained that Strigoi for over 70 years before she deemed him fit to run the assets she gave him and he is still in charge of over 3/4's of the Strigoi in Italy and currently sits within the Vatican waiting for the right moment to take down the church from within however the guardians are getting much closer to his plans and he has not moved any of his pawns for 40 years."

Dimitri paused again looking at everyone before continuing.

"I think she must have heard about Rose from her recent trip to Siberia, Rose though amazing did not go unnoticed and made quite a name for herself amongst the Strigoi Kan Kirmizi gül, is what they called her"

"Blood Red Rose," Abe said translating Dimitri who nodded before continuing.

"If Kövan has taken a liking to her then she cannot be reached until they deem that she is ready. That and she will have an almost untouchable army behind her." Dimitri finished.

Just as the front door opened and Hans entered glancing around at who was already in the room before he started to speak.

"We have just finished interrogating on of the Strigoi from the attack that we had taken in alive, well so to speak. didn't say much before we had him killed but did say, Kan kırmızı gül, bize, tarama ve sipariş birleştirme parçaları hizaya etrafında geri yüklenecek ve tüm birlikte gelir, hiç kimse ama en önemli gerçeği ve bana değil sevgili Guardian söyler misiniz. Melek ve onun üstleri, graves hak yanan kazık görürsünüz. which to be honest I was glad I recorded as even in english it is just a bloody threatening mush of noise that doesn't give us too much information. " Hans finished

"What is the translation,?" Mia asked

"Blood red rose, will join us, kill you all and order will be restored around you the pieces fall into place and all comes together, no one but the most important could tell you the truth and dear Guardian that is not me. Angel and her superiors will see your graves are the burning piles you deserve." Abe said slowly Translating from his native tongue.

"So in other words, unless we find her within the next few weeks she will do something that even if we are able to turn her back she would have more grief than Beliklov and most likely hate herself until something truly killed her." Came a new voice from the door way, a Guardian that only a few people in the room had seen before, Tomas and two others behind him and elderly lady and a younger girl.

Dimitri stood up almost not believing his eyes and the younger girl ran at him.

"Viktoria," He gasped and looking up "Babushka" he said to the older lady who gave him a small smile. he extracted himself from his sisters arms and addressed everyone in the room.

"Everyone this is my younger sister Viktoria and my grandmother Yeva."
