Chapter 7

I looked up to those three faces, which I don't recognize. But deep down I think I know them. Somehow, somewhere, I have met them. I don't know but I felt safe here with them.

They are all - beautiful and were dressed in really nice white robes. There were two men's and one woman. I could not even describe the beauty.

"Rose you can't give up. God always have a motive for everyone. That's why they come to earth and god takes them away when he wants to. You died that day but you were not spouse to die. That's why Lissa brought you back to life." The woman said.

"Who are you guys?" I asked. The man who looked older then the other man and woman said,

"We are your protectors. We are from the land of shadows, mean from the land of dead. When you died that day you met us. We don't know if you remember us but you have met us before.

"We look after you and make sure no harm is done to you. I think there is a lot to tell, so let me start with the begging," he said and I nodded.

"Ok years ago god decided that there should be someone on earth to protect the life of innocent, from evil. Not only strigoi, but other evil people. He decided that he would send a special someone to earth, who would bring peace.

"It was Anna who he chose. As you know that she was also a shadow kissed and that's how she got most of the powers. But he didn't give her any protectors and evil was too much for one person to handle.

"When Anna died he thought to send someone really strong with protectors who protect her. He chose you. We are all bounded to you. Not only us. But there are more protectors of yours. They will help you in your journey. Follow them and let your heart open because one of them holds your heart.

"There are ten protectors. Three of us here, who are from shadow lands and there is another one from shadow lands. You have found three protectors. It's Dimitri, Adrian, and Christian.

"There are three left, who we are not aware of. They would come to you by time. They will find you." he finished.

It was too much for me to take. Wow I didn't know Dimitri, Adrian, and Christian are my protectors.

"What are your names?" I asked.

"I am Alejo, this is Alexine, and this is Aristo." Alejo is the one who explained everything. A boy appeared next to Alexine who looked like two years old and was holding Alexine's dress in his tiny fist.

He had pierced blue eyes and pitch-black hair. He was smiling at me and I smiled back at him. He was beautiful and was wearing white trousers and white button down shirt. Again the beauty I could not just describe. He looked a lot like Christian.

"He is Artemas your other protector." Alejo said. The boy came up to me and smiled, his beautiful smile. He brought his tiny hand and wiped my tears of.

"Don't cry momma, I am always going to be with you." he said and wrapped his arms around my neck.

I looked up at all three of them and they nodded. This can't be true. My baby. My baby is here with me. I wrapped my arms around him and hugged him close to me.

"Rose, Artemas was not spouse to die. But he is your protector and what god thought was right, he did it. You were to young to have a baby and be a mother and the responsibility was too much so god gave your son to us.

"He lives with us in the shadow lands and is always there at night with you. He loves you and Christian a lot but you were to young. Again whatever god does is for good." Alexine said. More tears were coming out and they were happy tears, because I was holding my little baby, who died before opening eyes in this world.

I got pregnant with Christian's baby when I was fifteen. I was too young. But I love the little baby in me. I went through the nine months and went in labor. But the baby was born dead.

It broke me. But I was strong for Lissa. She is the only one who knows I was pregnant with Christian's baby.

"Momma I lobe you and dada." Artemas said. I pulled him away and kissed him allover on the face.

"Momma love you to and dada loves you to." I said to him.

"But dada don't know about me." He said. I looked at him in the eyes and there was only sadness. A tear escaped his eye and I wiped it.

"Momma will tell dada about you and even if he doesn't know about you he still loves you." and kissed him on the forehead.

"Rose you don't have much time. You have to get out of here with your protectors and just follow your heart and it will bring you to safety.

"You can call us whenever and we will come. Artemas always stays with you at night. He does need his momma and since he your protector, he can come and go back to shadow lands without a problem.

"We all are basically dead and not dead. We can be here with you as long as you need us or as long as we want. But we do have to return to shadow lands to report. So when ever you need us, you call us and we would be here." Aristo said.

"Can Artemas stay with me?" I asked, not wanting to let go of him.

"Yes, he can stay with you. But he does have to come back to shadow lands everyday to report. He can come to us when you are in classes. I am sure your protector's would love to meet him, especially the father.

"We know things aren't good between both of you. But you need him in your life. Try to make peace with each other and be friends. Bring him to training with you and get out of here as soon as you all can.

"You need to bring your protectors with you. You and your protectors would be able to see Artemas or us, no one else. So you don't have to worry about hiding this little by here." Alejo said and I nodded and smile.

"Now Artemas I know you are going to be living with your momma and dada. But behave son or Alexine would be really mad with you." Alexine said and Artemas smiled up at her and said,

"I woulb be a goob boy and thkwe for leting me wiwe momma and dada." he is so adorable and cute. He hugged me back and snuggled with me.

"Ok Rose, Artemas, take care of your selves and call us if you need any help." Alejo said and I nodded. They all disappeared leaving me with Artemas. I was thinking nothing is good anymore. But holding my son and knowing he is here with me is the happiest moment of my life.

"Rose?" I looked up at Dimitri was standing there looking at me with concern in his eyes. Artemas looked up at him and ran from my arms to him

"Diwiti, you rememwer me?" Artemas yelled as Dimitri picked him up in his arms and kissed his forehead and said,

"Of course I remember you buddy." Dimitri said with a big smile on his face.

"Yay!" Artemas screamed and it made me happy that he was so happy.

"What are you doing here buddy?" Dimitri asked him.

"I am going to libe with momma, dada and you." Artemas said. Dimitri looked up me and said,

"Well I see you met your momma."

"Yes and she is weally nice." Artemas said. Dimitri smiled at him and came and sat next to me and handed Artemas to me. I was so confused on what was happening? Did Dimitri and Artemas met before?

"Yes we did." Dimitri said.

"How?" I asked.

"When I died I went to shadow lands and that's where I met Alejo, Alexine, Aristo and Artemas and when you were in the coma, Artemas visited you every night and laid on the bed with you and I was in your head when they were all here but not for the last part. So is Artemas staying or what?" Dimitri asked.

"Yes, but he has to go back everyday to report." I said.

"Are you going to tell Christian about him?" Dimitri asked.

"I don't know. Artemas want his father and I don't know if Christian would even listen to me and if he does, he will get more angry with me then he is now." I said.

"Rose he won't get mad for one he is Artemas father, he would be happy and second he would know why you didn't tell him. Artemas is not alive he is in between life and death.

"You didn't even know about him till today. Lastly but not least he still loves you and he is your protector. So I will tell Adrian to bring him in gym today and you tell him there. Adrian and Christian would love to see Artemas. Would he be still here at that time?" Dimitri asked.

"Yes he would. He only needs to leave for a couple of hours just to report and then he can come back." I said. Dimitri made a lot of sense right now and I remembered he said he loved me in the cafeteria.

"Dimitri what you said in cafeteria was it true?" I asked. Dimitri signed and said,

"No Rose, I said that just to calm you down." I looked at him in the eyes to see if he was lying. But there was a blank expression and cold one. He has his guardian mask on.

"Ok. Thank you for calming me down, because if I killed your sister I would not have forgiven my self." I said to him.

"It's ok Rose. She should not have said any of the things that she said. She doesn't know you and she can't just judge you by whatever people tell her. That will just teach her a lesson. She is in shock but she would be ok." Dimitri said.

"I am really sorry." I said.

"I know you are and it's ok." He said and I smiled at him. I looked down at Artemas who was looking at us with big wide eyes.

"What's wrong?" I asked him.

"Momma bhen am I going to see dada?" he asked. I smiled at him and said,

"Soon, tonight ok." I said to him, which brought a big smile on his face.

"Let's go inside Rose. You do have to go to the headmistress office." Dimitri said and I nodded.

We all got up and Artemas took a hold of my finger in his right hand and took Dimitri's finger in his other hand. We all walked to the academy.
