CHAPTER FIVE-Questions

ROSE'S POV

I woke up in my room, at my father's castle. I was glad that I was somewhere familiar. I breathed in the fresh air as arms tightened around my waist. My mind went into, panic mode. Lying beside me in bed was Adrian. I involuntary let out the breath that I was holding. He looked even better, then I remembered.

The only problem was the noticeable dark circles under his eyes. I wonder if he has been getting enough blood. I should have asked him later. His head was delicately resting on my shoulder, and his breathing was even. A small smile tugged at his lips. He was asleep and snoring like a little baby. His hair was sticking up all over the place; like he was running his hand threw his hair all night. He was wearing a grey pair of sweat pant's and a basic forest green t-shirt. He was casual, and looked rather delicious, then wearing his normal silk clothes.

I was completely memorized by his good looks that I didn't see him opening his emerald green eyes. I was lost into his eyes, when I suddenly felt his warm lips upon mine. The kiss started out as a peck, until he wanted more. I broke the kiss, gasping for breath. I looked at him, "How can you kiss me like that? I have morning breath."

He looked at me like I had three eyes, "I don't care if you had morning breath. Or that you smell because you didn't have a shower in days. I'm just so happy that you're safe, and in my arms, and not wandering around outside bleeding."

"Thank you. But I first need a shower."

I climbed out of bed, and went into my walk in closet. I crabbed an outfit before jumping in the shower. I left Adrian sitting on my bed. By the time I was done, he was also done and wearing a pair of jeans and a red t-shirt.

"Where are the kids?"

"Their downstairs eating breakfast, my parents and aunt have been hanging around them. I think that they both fell in love. They simply adore them."

"They are beautiful kids, and a handful."

"That they are. But they are also our kids."

"Yeah, they are. I think we should go downstairs. There is something I need everybody to hear."

We made our way to the dining room where everyone was sitting. Samara was sitting on Daniella lap, playing with her hair. Damon was surprisingly sitting on Adrian's fathers lap. He was feeding him yogurt, with a bright smile on his face.

They were too busy watching the twins that they didn't notice us coming in there. Lissa turned around, with a bright smile on her face. She ran over to me, enveloping me in a bear hug. "I so happy that you are okay, I wanted to heal you, but Adrian did, I didn't want to hurt my unborn child," She was crying towards the end.

I rubbed her back in a soothing gesture. "Its okay, Lissa, I'm fine now. I'm glad you didn't hear me. Thanks Adrian."

She let go of me. Then, everyone gave me a hug. Including Stan Alto, That was shocking. They handed me my kids. I had one of them on each of my knees.

"Rose. Can you tell us what happened?" Abe asked.

I sighed, "Sure. I asked Mia if she could watch the twin while I went to my nightly walk. I felt a hand covering my mouth. There was some liquid on it. Whatever was no it was powerful enough to make me pass out."

I took in a deep breath, and then continued. "I later woke up in an unknown room. My hands were shackled to the wall. I was suspended about three feet from the floor. I thought I might have been able to kick a hole through the concrete, but I wasn't strong enough."

That had gotten several chuckles out of everyone. Adrian came closer to me. He took Damon off my lap and held him, while he put his other arm around my waist. "Can you continue, Baby girl?" My mother asked me.

I nodded my head. "Couple of hours passed. Three people walked into the room. One was a male Dhampir. The other two were Moroi. One was a female and the other was a male. With them turning on the light I was able to see the room more clearly. It looked like a place where the used to autopsy on dead bodies. They even have some of the tools there."

I repressed a shutter. "They had smiles on their faces. But the smiles looked like they wanted me to beg for my life. I asked her what she wanted, she was the leader. She told me that I have something that she wanted, and I took it away from her. She was a spirit user."

There were several, gasped from Lissa and Adrian. "She is a spirit user?" Lissa questioned.

"Yes, although, she wants one person," I said

"Who?" They all yelled.

"Adrian," I said simply.

"Why does she want me? I don't know her," he said.

"I asked her if her name was Kelly. She said no, it Avery. Kelly was her twin sister. Then, I asked her why she was doing this. So she told me her story: She died four years ago, right after Adrian broke up with her. He ripped her heart out and stomped on it, like it never mattered. She couldn't help feeling like she was useless. She loves him for years, before they ever started going out. On a lonely night I went to her apartment, to check up on her. I couldn't find her anywhere. But I had to go to the bathroom badly, and didn't think anyone was in there. But there was, and it was horrifying. She was hanging from the ceiling, with a rope tied around her neck. Her eyes were open. They screamed help me! I wished I could have helped her, but it was too late. She had to be there for at least a couple of days. Her body was to the point where it was starting to decay, and maggots were starting to swarm around her. I didn't even know, how they came into her apartment? But they did. She left a note saying revenge me. So I got pregnant, but the only problem was I already was by a Dhampir. So when I saw you in the doctor's office, pregnant. I knew it had to be Adrians. That was when you were going out with him, unless you cheated on him with another guy. That is the story that she told me."

"It's my fault," Adrian muttered.

"It's not your fault. It could have happened to anyone." I told him.

"She's right, Adrian. Don't beat yourself up over nothing you couldn't control," Tatiana said. "What happened afterwards?"

I was shocked that she agreed with me. "I escaped from the shackles. Knocked them out and escaped."

"Where were you?" Abe asked.

"At the old abandoned hospital near the house," I told them

"I think we should get someone to go over there. See if they are still there. Also, we should make sure no one else is taken," Abe said.
