Revenge is A Dish Best Served With a Stake

Chapter one

::ROSE POV::

'Love fades, mine has' four little words was all it took and I was livid. What did he mean? All the rage, the frustration, the pain, and worst of all the longing, all the emotions that had fuelled my ability to move forward in the darkness that hand built up in me over the time I'd spent hunting for him, searching for a way to save him without killing him, all in vain, finally succeeding in my quest only for him to say that a meant nothing to him anymore. It all built up and I just snapped.

"What do you mean faded?" I asked trying to control the emotions that all at once were threatening to burst out all at once. For once in my life I wanted more than ever for him to feel all the hurt and anger I was feeling, just so he could understand.

He answered me patronisingly; using a tone that one would use to talk to a child who didn't understand a very simple concept. " I have no more interest in you Roza. My duty is to protect Lissa, she saved me, and I owe her at least that."

I was no longer aware of the world around me, of what my body was doing, all I would feel as was rage. A throbbing pain in my hand made me almost aware of the world, as if looking through a veil. Dmitri's nose was bleeding, bent at an awkward angle, his godly face in a perfect mask of shock.

"Lissa? Oh, so she's not Princess Vasilisa anymore, she's Lissa now. I'm sure your precious princess must have had such a difficult time saving you, you know, what with her dropping out of school, riving up her future, travelling to Russia, having to watch the pain in Olena's eyes when she found out what had become of her son! Then Lissa must have worked hard to break a criminal out of jail trying to save you and then having to escape and kill the one man she'd loved even after he had captured her and used her as a bloodwhore! I mean it's not like even after that she had to suffer with the knowledge that she'd not only hesitated while battling him but missed his heart with the stake, two lessons that he'd put so much emphasis on in their time together. Who knows how many sleepless nights she must have had knowing that she would have to try again? No! All she had to do was charm a goddamn stake; Adrian could have done it for fuck's sake! She didn't have to go though all that shit to save you, I did!" My voice started to crack as tears threatened to fall; my voice now came out as a barely audible whisper. "I did all that and more just so you could stand here and tell me that, that you don't love me…"

I couldn't cry, not now. I needed to leave, he couldn't see me vulnerable, I wouldn't let him. I tried to open my mouth to speak but the lump in my throat felt real and like it was growing. The rage had faded and in its place was a horrible constricting pain. All the hurt, so much hurt.

"Leave Roza"

"It's Rose or in your case Guardian Hathaway, Guardian Belikov" I said coldly, my guardian mask slipping into place. Then I walked briskly out of the Church, trying to hold what was left of myself together.
