SORRY IT'S BEEN SO LONG! I DEEPLY APOLOGIZE FOR MY LATENESS! HERE'S THIS CHAPTER! HOPE YOU LIKE IT AND REVIEW!

Rose P.O.V

I gasped along with Lissa and Tasha as Dimitri glared at Adrian. Adrian sat on the couch, his face contorted in pain. Christian, who sat on the other end of the couch, gave out a low whistle.

"Dude, I swear I felt that from all the way over here," he smirked.

"What the fuck was that for?!" Adrian demanded while clutching his chin and standing up.

"I heard that you left Roza for a another woman, and then spent all week in your room with that woman." Dimitri stepped closer o Adrian, almost in his face. "But that is not the reason I hit you. I hit you because you left Roza over something she couldn't control and still dare to call yourself a man."

"What are you talking about?!"

"You honestly don't remember?" I whispered.

Dimitri P.O.V

"You honestly don't remember?" Roza whispered.

My heart broke for her. She had found comfort in the wrong man. If I were here years ago, this never would have happened. Roza wouldn't have been kidnapped, tortured once, and then be tortured again by a man that she trusted. She would have been safe in my arms.

'What are you thinking Dimitri? You just met Roza, you shouldn't have kissed her and gave her false hopes on anything. You don't deserve her, she's too precious.' I mentally scolded myself.

I zoned back into reality to find Roza gone and Adrian with a pack of ice on his cheek.

"Where's Roza?"

"She ran to her room and she won't let me in." Lissa answered, coming down the staircase.

I sighed and slowly walked up the stairs to Rose's room. I tried the doorknob, but it was locked.

"Go away!" Rose screamed from inside. I could tell that she had been crying. Her voice sounded like it.

"Roza," I whispered, "Let me in."

"Dimitri… please go away."

She sighed.

"I'm not leaving until you let me in."

"Fine."

The door opened a few seconds later. Rose stood in the doorway, he hair pulled back into a messy bun and her mascara running down her face. She was still the most beautiful woman on Earth to me. I stepped inside her room and sat down on the couch across from her bed. I examined the room, noticing that she had a full kitchen and master bathroom in her room.

"You have an apartment in here!" I exclaimed.

Roza laughed. Mission accomplished.

"No. My apartment is actually through those doors. They lead to an almost attic setting, but there is a full kitchen, master bedroom and master bathroom up there. There's also a piano and harp in the music room. Oh, there's a freezer room for food that I store if a world war ever happens, but I wouldn't stay up there for safety."

"Wow, I need one of those." I smiled.

Roza smiled back. Then she sighed and sat down next to me.

"Why does life has to be like this? Why can't everyone just be happy and have a life full of rainbows and unicorns?"

"If everyone had a life of rainbows and unicorns, there wouldn't be a point of waking up the next morning. People like drama, it defines them."

"What are you a Zen master?" Roza giggled.

"No, just a very wise man, if I say so myself."

"Well I say that you're life hasn't been all rainbows and unicorns."

"And you're right. I didn't have a rainbow and unicorns life."

"What happened?" She turned towards me with her eyebrows furrowed in concern.

"My father used to rape and beat my mother and she would take it."

Rose gasped and laid her head on my shoulder. "I'm so sorry. I bet you hated that man."

"I hated him with everything in me. One day I couldn't stand what he was doing to her."

"What did you do?" she smiled.

"I beat his ass."

Roza stared at me in wonder and amazement. "You kicked your own dad's ass?"

'Yes, one day I just couldn't stand him beating up my mother anymore. I was taller than he was and I had more muscle then he did so it wasn't hard."

"How old were you?"

"Thirteen."

"Thirteen?! Dimitri that's amazing. Has he come back since then?"

"No and if he ever does then I'll kill him." I growled. I couldn't even imagine him coming back to her, she meant nothing to him in the first place. He just liked to show that he could hold dominance over her. He knew she wouldn't fight back.

"Hey, that's bravest thing a person that I've known has ever done." Rose whispered.

"I'm pretty sure I'm not the bravest guy out there." I said.

"Well you are to me."

Our eyes met at the same time. There a sense of peace in the room and in between us. I moved to kiss her.

Then someone knocked on the door.

"Rose," Adrian said, "Rose let me in."

Her eyes snapped to the door. "Why?"

"Because I still care for you."

"But you don't love me right? You never loved me. I was just a trophy on your arm, something for you to show off to all your other dumbass guy friends."

"That's not true Rose... I miss you, I need you again."

"Need me how, in bed? That's never going to happen again Adrian. Please leave the prescence of my door, it's disturbed by your touch."

I heard him sigh before his heavy footsteps faded away. Roza let out a breath that she probably didn't know she was holding. I examined her tired face before speaking. "Are you alright?"

"Yeah," she whispered "I'm gonna go downstairs and fix some dinner. Are you okay with some steak, fries, and a salad? That's what I usually make on Fridays."

"That's perfect. Do you need any help?"

A surprised look came on her face. "You don't have to..."

"I want to." I assured her.

Roza smiled. "Well, sure."

She headed out of her room and I took a deep breath before following her.

Relax Dimitri, she's just a woman that every man in the world drools over, and let's not forget her being a model, writer, singer, and almost actress.

I was going to faint.
