"Well, Rose. Let's get you out of here." That was all Abe said before he took off down the corridor. I assume he is meeting with the council about this. After all, our daughter was a free woman being held up in a cell.

I was sitting in on the council meeting not really paying attention, when Abe busted through the doors with a piece of paper in his hands. Since he was, well him, nobody said anything. That guy is intimidating! "Hold on! I have something important for you all to read!" Everyone took turns reading the letter and I could hear everyone's gasps. When it finally came around to me, I understood what their reaction was. Rose was free! I am so glad that my best friend can now get the fuck out of that dingy cell and be able to take better care of herself and that baby! I have to make it a point to find her a 2 bedroom apartment near mine and Christian's. I would have to get on that right away. I excused myself from the meeting and found myself in search for a place for them.

I looked at several places and finally found the perfect one. It was on the same hall as me and only a few doors down. I didn't even realize it was empty… just a few days ago I thought I saw a couple leaving it. Oh well, at least it will be close in case she goes into labor when she is not right by my side. I hope she finally came to her senses and took Dimitri back. They are so much in love that it hurt me to see them not together. Then again, that was all Dimitri's fault after all. Guys can be so dense at times. I am just glad that Christian found it in himself to forgive me for what happened when I was under Avery's influence. He has moved in with me and everything is going great.

After finding the perfect place for them, I got to work ordering furniture online. I ordered everything I thought she would need…a king-sized bed, dressers, a crib, a couch, chair, loveseat, changing table, curtains, maternity clothes, a dining room set, dishes, you name it, I ordered it! She is going to be so surprised! I will have to find guest housing for her in the meantime…just so that it will be kept a secret.

My mother left soon after Abe did, leaving Dimitri and I alone. I told him about how I just found out about being pregnant and that the only other people who knew are Adrian, Lissa, and now him and my parents. I hadn't even been to a doctor yet… for obvious reasons. He made me promise that as soon as I was released, we would go to the infirmary so that I could get checked out. It honestly surprised me how well Dimitri took the news. I thought he would be pissed and accuse me of cheating…but I swear it only made him love me more. This man is truly a god…my own personal Russian god!

It wasn't long before Ave returned and I was released. It felt so good to be free! Honestly, there were only a few things I wanted to do: I wanted a real shower with hot water instead of luke-warm, I wanted food…I'm talking pizza, brownies, and milkshakes, I wanted to change my clothes since I have been wearing the same shit for what seems like forever now, and I wanted to cuddle up next to Dimitri on a couch and watch a movie with him and my friends. It really didn't seem like much to ask, but I had nowhere to stay yet…so it was.

I stepped out of the jail and stared up at the stars, taking a deep breath of fresh air and closing my eyes. For some reason, I took comfort in the almost silence. I loved being able to hear the crickets chirping, seeing the stars, and being around others. You kinda learn not to take these things for granted when you are isolated from the world. I felt strong arms wrap around my waist, hands resting on my stomach, and smelled the intoxicating smell that was embedded in my brain all this time and couldn't help but smile.

"This feels so good." I leaned back into him, still with my eyes closed. His arms tightened around my waist. "Yes. Yes it does, my Roza." I smiled even bigger as the sound of his voice reassured me that he was here. I sighed and turned around. God those eyes…I was lost in them and to honest, I didn't want to be found. But, I had things to do. "I need to go find Lissa. When I checked on her shortly before I was released, she still had no idea yet. I think I am going to go surprise her and maybe get a shower and see if she has anything I can wear." He smiled knowingly at me. "No need Roza. I already called Lissa. She will be expecting you tomorrow afternoon. As for clean clothes, I had them bring your stuff to my place after your first hearing, and so you may as well shower there as well. The water is very hot and everything you need is there." I smiled and kissed his lips softly. "Thank you, Comrade. You're a lifesaver…wintergreen…because it sparks in the dark." I gave him a quick wink and took his hand.

He led me to his apartment, stopping momentarily before unlocking it to kiss me. God, being free is fucking awesome! I followed Dimitri into his apartment, fingers intertwined. I looked around and noticed dozens of candles lit throughout the place. It was so romantic…I didn't even think he was capable of something like this. After all this time of needing to keep "us" a secret, why would I have known? He continued leading me through until we reached the bathroom. He had already drawn a bath for me, complete with bubbles and more candles.

Slowly, he reached for the hem of my shirt. "May I?" Wow. He was actually asking me if it was alright to get me naked! I answered him with a nod and he proceeded to take off my shirt. Once it was off, he kissed my forehead, my lips, and then my neck right below my ear. I shuddered at the electric tingle that shot straight to my clit. Fuck, I want him now! I wrapped my arms around his neck. He slowly undid the clasp on my bra and it fell to the floor. He slowly kissed his way down to my breast, taking my nipple in his mouth and sucking it greedily while groping the other with his free hand. I decided to take this opportunity to start disrobing him as well. Before long, we were both naked. I broke away from his embrace, realizing the water was probably getting cold.

I slipped into the tub, motioning with my head for Dimitri to join me. He got in behind me and lifted me onto his lap. I could feel how hard he already was, as his cock was throbbing against my back. I leaned back onto his chest and we resumed kissing. My neck was starting to hurt, so I turned around and straddled him. Once again, our lips found eachother. It was so intense and full of love and passion, I couldn't help but rub my clit against him. I grabbed his hair at the nape of his neck and we both moaned.
