I made it to the airport by hitching a ride and then I flew to Paris. I had no idea where Adrian was but I had figured it was as any good a place to start as any so I had arranged to meet Sonya and Mikhail there in the little café in which myself and Adrian had waited for Dimitri's arrival. Sitting in the café brought back memories, of Adrian, Mason and of course Dimitri so I was relieved when Sonya and Mikhail arrived.

We searched for Adrian using pretty much the same method I had when looking for Dimitri in Russia. Sonya may have been Moroi but she was a talented fighter and staked her fair share of Stirgoi but we didn't permit her to charm any of them Adrian was our main priority, we needed her strong for that and not worried about those who she had restored on out journey as they tended to be very depressed once they were restored.

It took a number of weeks before we found any information and even then it wasn't a location it was Adrian's new mobile number. Once we had dragged it out of some poor unfortunate stirgoi we went back to our hotel room where I pondered what to do. Should I ring him? If so what would the reaction be? Like Dimitri's and cause him to come for me or push him deeper into hiding? I was very stressed out about it. Mikhail picked up on this and asked Sonya to heal me. He knew I was taking some of Lisa's darkness even though I hadn't even thought about it. I found my mind tended to move towards Dimitri and Mason more than Lissa now and it felt strange Lissa had always been my priority, well I guess not any more.

I finally drifted of to sleep but it was short lived as I slipped into Lissa's head. I sighed in frustration as I was tired and sooo not in the mood to be pulled into a emotional encounter with Christian but I couldn't escape it, that's when I figured out that wasn't it. She was emotionally distressed. I was fit to hurt whoever had caused this reaction from her but a part of me couldn't help thinking hmmm trouble in paradise already? I knew this was irrational and mean but I guess I've been starting to become more and more rebellious to the life style Dhampirs are expected to live. I was pulled from my thoughts again by Lissa and I realised that it wasn't that somebody had hurt her emotionally or physically, she had miscarried and it was killing her. I instantly felt bad and regretted my thoughts. Lissa was in pain and it felt so wrong not to be with her, not to be there to comfort her as she had with Mason. I felt guilty as I hadn't even realised she had wanted a child so much I was meant to be her best friend for crying out loud. Even though we hadn't been face to face in almost a year she was still practically my sister and I felt her pain but there wasn't anymore I could do for her. I made up my mind to find Adrian as soon as possible then join Lissa as her full-time guardian and best friend.

When I woke in the morning I was nearly more tired than when I had fell asleep. Mikhail picked up on it while Sonya was still in bed.

"Rose are you okay?"

"You I am, just tired"

"Rose" he said knowingly.

Sonya then chose that moment to make an entrance

"Rose what's wrong, is everything okay?" she asked worried

"I'm fine"

"Have you forgotten I can read auras?

Honestly had. That thought back brought painful images of Adrian. I pushed them aside and contemplated whether or not to tell them as it was Lissa's business and place to tell. I decided to tell them so they wouldn't be distracted worrying about me.

"Lissa miscarried"

"Oh". they both looked slightly upset but they remained professional and I told them that I had decided to try and call Adrian as he couldn't be any harder to find even if he did go into hiding.

I rang Adrian

"Hello Ivashkov"

"Adrian it's Rose please tell me where you are."

"in your dreams Little Dhampir." and he hung up.

But I had picked up essential information - Adrian was in Russia, I would recognise that language anywhere. I relayed my news to Sonya and Mikhail and we set off for Russia. Once we were there it was a simple matter of torture to find out that Adrian was now running Galina's old estate.

Okay guys I'm kinda writing using the house computer and my sisters labtop so I apologise beforehand if some of the information laps over or if any thing is missing. If you have any queries please tell me.

As always please review and enter your ideas for some new characters which I will hopefully be introducing in the near future. If I don't get feedback, we'll let's just be sayiny you won't get ud like this for awhile. Please enjoy this chapter and the following ones until I add in a A/N.

As usual Love you all
