Different Turn Of Events
Chapter 10

Rose
There was someone furiously banging on the door and I know exactly who it was. I rushed to the door and opened it to see Dimitri standing there looking concerned and worried about me. I was crying and he knew from just looking at me something was seriously wrong, I wrapped my arms around him and he instantly wrapped his arms around me back and he started rubbing my back comfortingly but I needed more then that right now.

Dimitri picked me up and kicked the front door closed behind him. He walked us to the living room and he sat me down on the sofa, he sat down next to me and I laid my head on his chest. Dimitri's arm wrapped around my shoulder and he pulled me close into him "It's ok Roza, I'm here now" He said and I could feel my body start to relax.

I managed to calm myself down and I sat up and looked down at Dimitri "I'm sorry for calling you away from Lissa again" I said and wiped the last couple of tears away "With my mom not being here I didn't know who else to call… there was no one else for me to call" I told him.

"Of course I would come. Lissa is in good hands, I promise" He said "What happened. You didn't make any sense on the phone" He told me.

"Jesse… he… he came here" I told him but tears started welling up again "He did it again" I stated and he knew exactly what I meant "He did it again to me Dimitri and I don't know what to do" I said and I broke down.

"You don't need to do anything" He said quietly.

Dimitri and I just sat there with his arms around me and comforting me. He was stroking my hair and whispering things in my ear. I can't believe that today started out so great and amazing then turned into this. My bedroom was something special because it was were Dimitri and I first made love together and now it's just a horrible reminder of my past. I moved to get away from Jesse and everything he did to me and it's still chasing me. Is this what it's going to be like for the rest of my life? Looking over my shoulder all the time and waiting for Jesse to strike again. Am I ever going to be free of him? Probably not. I really thought I could put this all behind me and start again, how stupid of me.

I should have never called Dimitri away from Lissa again for this. He doesn't deserve to be dragged through all of this. I know he'll feel like he has to do something because I called him here but I was wrong to do that. I should have just left him alone, never let him in, never slept with him because now he is involved. Dimitri is too good a man to tell me he doesn't want damaged goods but who would want me? I'm just this pathetic and weak little girl that Dimitri is showing pity on.

I stood up from the couch where Dimitri was embracing me. He looked up at me in confusion for a moment before standing up and holding his hand out to me "Rose, what's the matter?" He questioned.

"I shouldn't have called you" I stated.

"Why not?" He asked confused.

"Because you deserve better then being dragged though all of this. I'm damaged goods Dimitri and you deserve someone like Tasha Ozera, someone who's more worthy of you. I'm a mess and a very stupid little girl" I explained.

"Now you are being silly" He replied "Rose there is no one else I would rather be with then you, I love you and if I didn't then I certainly wouldn't have done what we did earlier. There is no one else for me and what happened to you doesn't change my feelings for you. I don't think you're weak, I think you're the complete opposite. I've seen people lose their shit over less. If anything, it's me that's not worthy of you" He told me and put his arms around me.

He pulled away after a moment and bent down to the sofa to grab his jacket "What are you doing?" I asked.

"I'm going to find Jesse and I'm going to put an end to this once and for all" He stated and turned his back.

"Please don't leave me here" I pleaded.

"I won't be long. I know where he is" He said and left.

Dimitri
I didn't want to leave Rose when she was in a state like this but if I can prove to her 100% that Jesse is never going to do anything like this to her again, it might make her feel better. I know it's a long shot but at the moment I'm so angry at Jesse that I was looking for an excuse to pay him a visit. The first time he did it I let him off fairly lightly but now… now I am going to show just how tough I can be and just how small he really his. No man who does that to a woman is a real man, not even a boy. He's nothing.

Someone I trained with, Damian, is Jesse's guard and I just happen to know where they are. They're staying at the local rich mans hotel. They're flying out tomorrow to meet Jesse's parents on vacation. It didn't take me long to get there, 10 minutes or so. When I did get there a man who worked on the door reluctantly let me in. I gave him some story about being a Russian businessman who was staying in room 101. He didn't seem to buy it at first but then I mentioned there could be a international incident if he didn't let me in.

I went straight to the waiting area in reception. Damian likes to smoke and in places like this you can't smoke in the rooms and you have to come down and stand outside. I was sitting for 7 minutes when I saw Damian. He noticed me instantly and came over.

"Dimitri. I thought you were with the Princess" He said.

"I was but I was called here on urgent business" I replied "Has Jesse been anywhere but the hotel today?" I asked.

"Yeah we dropped him off at some apartment complex. He went to see some aunt or something" He told me.

"No he didn't" I stated and Damian looked confused "He went to see Rose Hathaway. The girl he raped at the school and now he's done it again. Last time I let him off easily but now, I'm pissed and I'm going to show him what a bad idea it was going back" I explained.

"Look man I know you're pissed. I'm not happy either, I don't like stuff like that happening to Dhampir girls but the guy is my charge and going to see his parents tomorrow. If he so much has a hair out of place, they'll do more then fire me. I can't let anything happen to him" Damian told me.

"You don't have a choice" I said and made my way to the lifts. Damian instantly followed me and we went up to the right floor, Damian took me to the room Dimitri was staying in and reluctantly opened the door. Jesse was sitting there on the sofa, watching TV as cool as a cucumber "Hello Jesse" I greeted.

He looked scared when he saw me, I turned to Damian and he got the other guardian and the two of them left the room. I locked the door behind me and Jesse turned pale as if he had just seen a ghost. I walked towards him and he stood up from the sofa "I'll scream for help" He threatened as he backed away.

"I dare you" I replied as I moved a couple more steps to him.

I put my hand around his neck and brought his face close to mine "You made a big mistake going back to see Rose. You won't be doing it again to her or anyone else, this time I won't kill you but if I hear of you putting a toe out of line then I will kill you slowly and painfully" I told him.

"Is that? You're just going to threaten me? You're a pussy" He said trying to make himself seem harder then he was.

I let go of his neck and chuckled lightly before I punched him in the stomach. He doubled over in pain so I punched him again and again and again. He was kneeling on the floor so I kicked him hard in the stomach so he feel onto the floor. I grabbed his shirt and turned him over so he was laying on his back. I landed a few more blows to his face but it didn't satisfy me so I threw another few punches. His face started to swell and his eyes turning purple with bruise, his nose was definitely broken and he lost at least two teeth.

I stood up and took a few deep breaths and looked down on him "Just remember the next time you're shagging her that I was there first!" He shouted to me.

I kicked him in straight in the balls. He curled up in pain but I grabbed the collar of his shirt and made him sit up, I dragged him to the bathroom and filled the sink up with water. He started to cry thinking that I was going to kill him. I wasn't going to kill him but I was going to put the fear of God into him, it will make him think twice before even looking at another woman.

"Please" He pleaded with me. I grabbed Jesse and put his head into the water and held it there for a few seconds before taking it out. He took a few breaths and I put his head back into the water and held it for a second longer then the first time and pulled it out "I'll do anything" He said.

His head went back into the water for a third time and this time I held it under there for 1 minute although it must have felt like 1 hour for Jesse. I threw him to the floor and I heard him gasping for air and clutching his ribs. He's obviously got a broken rib or two as well which will make it even harder for him to breath. Not that I really cared.

"You go near her again and I swear I will kill you" I told him.

I was waiting for Dimitri to snap!
