Rose POV

I sighed and settled myself back onto the pillows. Christian, adding more salt to the injury, threw an arm around my shoulders. I shot him a glare. I already had enough to explain.

"Well it started after I ran away from court." I began. "I couldn't take anymore of your…betrayal. Chris and Adrian, having both been hurt by the both of you as well, decided to tag along. When, I'd run away for two years with Vasilissa, we'd come here and made ties with the Cullens." I smiled at them. Seven pairs of brilliantly white smiles met mine. "After some family issues, they had to leave." The smiles instantly disappeared. "But, anyway, when we left we didn't really have anywhere to go, so we came here, but we had a bit of a problem before we got here." My eyes filled with tears and I struggled to blink them back. Everyone's faces besides, Dimitri's and Vasilissa's became stoic and their eyes glazed over. Christian rubbed my shoulders soothingly and I could practically feel Vasilissa's eyes burning a hole in that shoulder. "Some old friends of yours." I hissed finally. "Or rather enemies, that you 'forgot to tell me you'd acquired' showed up wanting you. I refused to tell them where you were-"

"Which you should have done. They weren't worth it." Emmett butted in. Edward nodded in agreement.

"Amen to that." Christian agreed as he held me tighter.

"Mom, can you take the girls?" I asked Esme. Esme nodded kindly and took the girls promising them ice cream and Rachel a new Barbie doll. "Anyway, there were so many of them." I began again once they'd left. "We didn't have a way out, we couldn't escape." Edward's fists clenched and he bolted from the room, slamming the door so hard that cracks in the wall appeared.

"I'll go get him.." Carlisle spoke up silently. "Emmett, Jasper. I may need your help."

"But Carlisle.." Emmett started. Carlisle silenced him with a look. "Bells needs us."

"She has Christian, Adrian, Alice, Rosalie…she'll be fine. Right?" He looked at me for confirmation.

"Yeah daddy, I'll be fine." He smiled at me before kissing my head and going off in search of Edward. Emmett was the last one to leave as he sized up Dimitri silently.

"Punk." Emmett spat at him. Then something dawned on him and he smiled deviously. "Wanna arm wrestle later." I laughed a little realizing what he was going to do.

"Sure." Dimitri answered before I could stop him. This was going to be good.

"So…Where was I?" I asked after Emmett left. "oh yeah…They stopped our car on a deserted road. At first we thought they were strigoi, and I told Adrian and Christian to stay in the car. They ambushed all of us. There had to have been atleast 30. And instead of killing us like we thought they would they took us back to their hide out. I had no idea what or who they were and no idea how to kill them. They told us their mission and what they intended to do with us…or rather me." I closed my eyes, as I tried to block out all of the memories. "We were beaten for days…whipped twice a day until one day things changed." I stopped and Christian knew it was his turn to continue.

"They wanted Rose." In those moments, that was all he had to say because every one of them caught on. "The leader wanted Vasilissa at first as his bride but upon seeing Rose he wanted her instead. We only had a limited amount of time to come up with a plan."

"I was a virgin and didn't want to lose it to him." I spoke up. "Adrian was about dying, Christian was my only option. He did me a favor, as real friends should do." I spat at the two of them. "No matter how bad you hurt me I wouldn't do that to you! Now we have Terrance and Rachel, not because we planned it but because he was saving me. He's my best friend. Like a brother even. Don't judge us for something you don't know!" I shouted at them.

"Rose.."

"Roza.."

"I don't want to hear it." I exclaimed before standing up and bolting. There I was, once again running away from my problems.
