Rose sat down next to Dimitri to watch television. They both had the day off from guarding Lissa and they were going to spend it together. A week had passed since Lissa had healed Rose and they had spent almost every waking minute together with the exception of Dimitri taking Lissa to an appointment away from the court.
"I love you Dimitri. Oh, I really am sorry about Viktoria," said Rose.
A few days ago, Dimitri had found out that Viktoria had died in a car accident in Baia, Russia. The woman that had come to the court had been an imposter. A very good one in fact. She had had a friend of hers charm jewelry so that she looked like Viktoria and so she could get into the court. Her original purpose had been to kill Lissa, but with the amount of time Lissa had spent at the hospital with Rose, and the amount of time she had spent behind guardians, had made it difficult for the woman, now known as Tammy, to harm Lissa, let alone kill her.
When Tammy had attempted to murder Lissa in front of a newly healed Rose, she had found herself on the ground, having being tackled by Rose. Happy with her job, Rose had let Eddie drag a screaming Tammy to a jail cell to await a trial. Lissa had been so grateful to Rose that she spoke to the head of the guardians and had Rose promoted to her personal guardian. Rose was start this position tomorrow since Lissa had wanted her to be completely healed and well.
"I love you too Roza. It's not your fault. I'll be going to Baia for Viktoria's funeral in a few days and I want you to come with me. I already cleared it with Lissa. The trial will be the day after we get back," said Dimitri. He kissed Rose's head.
With a big smile on her face, Rose happily agreed to go with Dimitri. She wanted to say goodbye to her friend and she wanted to see Dimitri's family again. This way, she figured she could do both at once.
