Thank you for the reviews! Here is chapter 12:

DPOV
Do you know that moment when it feels like your whole life is slipping through your fingers? I thought I knew how it felt but today I found out how it really felt. And the moment was when I was breathing air into Rose's lungs. As a weak attempt to try to save the love of my life.

And I still can't figure out how it all went that way. I remember that we were walking through the woods. Just me and Rose. We were talking and even making future plans. My arm wrapped around her shoulder and her arm wrapped around my waist. She was smiling and laughing a lot, just the way I love it.

And the next moment I woke up on the ground in the middle of the woods. Without Rose. I could feel a nasty bruise on the back of my head but there weren't any clues to what happened. Only that Rose was not with me and that was enough to make a run to Alberta.

We were still within the academy boundaries so it couldn't have been Strigoi. And if it were Strigoi I wouldn't be alive now. Something happened to Rose, my Roza. And I was scared for her. I didn't had the chance to ask her what I wanted to ask and how was I supposed to do without her when I just got her back?

Alright, so maybe I was panicking. But panicking was the only thing that kept me from breaking down. Alberta didn't believed me first that there was something happening to Rose but after they had searched for her for about two hours, she knew. And that was when things became mad.

All the guardians gathered. Nobody had seen Rose. That moment there started a searching for her but it wouldn't help. We couldn't find her and my heart sank that moment. What if we couldn't find her and I lost my shot at loving her all those years ago.

I don't think that I could live without her. Yes, I did it for years. But all those years I knew she was alive and I had Adrian to tell me how she was doing. If she died while being in surgery there would be a part of me dying with her.

And I can't even think about what I should do then. Go back home and live with my mother and sisters? Could I give up guardian work? Or should I continue if she didn't died. Alright, enough thinking about that. She hasn't died. She is still alive.

Keep breathing, just keep breathing. Just wait until the doctor comes back and tell you that she survived. She has to survive, she just have to. If it is not for me. Then she should survive for Abe, for Adrian or even for Christian.

Alberta had called Abe when I walked into her office saying that there had happened something to Rose. He had arranged a flight to come here with Adrian. Adrian had called Christian who was only an hour and a half away from the academy.

Now we were sitting in the waiting room of the hospital. Me, Alberta, Abe, Adrian and Christian. Waiting on some news from Rose or even from Mo. Who was in surgery too.

The search for Rose took us twelve hours. Twelve stupid hours to search for someone who was still on academy grounds. And we found her by accident. I was patrolling the grounds with Robert when we heard a gunshot. One look and we were rushing inside.

In the small corridor in the basement was something I never wanted to see. On one side was Mo, a knife on the right side of his neck. He was losing blood in a quick tempo. In his left hand was a gun.

On the other side was Rose, my Roza. A pool of blood around her and she wasn't showing any signs of consciousness. I rushed towards her and I could tell that she had lost a lot of blood. Too much. Her heart stopped beating and the only thing I could do was preforming CPR on her.

It took only minutes before the paramedic were there to help me. To help Roza. But it felt like a life time. And then they left with her and with Mo. A trauma-helicopter stood ready to move them to the local hospital.

Alberta made me change clothes and then we were on the way to the hospital. All my clothes were covered with her blood. Making sure that I had everything with me that I needed we just went. And that is how we ended up in the waiting room.

I couldn't help but wanting Mo to survive. Not that I think that he should live. But in that way I could kill him myself. Or let Abe kill him. That way he would die in a way that he deserved more.

They had managed to get Roza's heart beating again. But that didn't mean she was out of critical zone. She was still fighting for her life. She had a large bruise on her head and they were worried that she was bleeding into her brain. There was a bullet wound in her stomach and came out on her back. But that bullet had hit her spine. And the worst thing was the bullet that had gone into her chest. That one didn't came out.

I just wished she would survive. I would give up everything to make sure that she would survive. Giving up my own life it would help her survive. And I know that I am not the only one thinking that if I look around me.

Abe is pacing around. Slightly mumbling to himself. And I don't know if he does that because he is going mad or that he is planning Mo's death. For his own sake I hope the last one. He may have been absent for a large part of Rose's life but he does care. A lot.

Adrian is already drunk. Or more beyond drunk. He is also talking to himself. But with him I know that it is bad. He cares about Rose a lot.

Christian is just sitting there. Not saying anything and staring right in front of him. I can't even imagine how this must be for him. He has already lost Lissa, the love of his life. And we all know how much he cared about Rose. They were like brother and sister.

Alberta is calling. Always on the phone and I think that is just to keep herself busy. Rose is like a daughter for her.

And me? Well, I try hard not to lose it. To keep myself together and stop myself from bursting into tears. I need to be strong. If I can't be strong, how can Roza be strong? She is all alone in there. Fighting for her own life.

'Family of Rosemarie Hathaway?' a young doctor asks and in only seconds we are all standing around him. Wanting to have the information.

'The surgery went well and she is now in the ICU to recover.' He says. Thank God she survived! Tears of happiness are forming in my eyes and I am not the only one.

'But there were a couple complications…'

What do you think? Rose survived but what kind of complications is the doctor talking about?
And what is that question that Dimitri wanted to ask her?
