Rose POV

We had just reached the cell room, and what I saw shocked me. Chris had managed to get Lissa, Christian, and the kids out of the church.

He smirked as I realized a low growl had escaped my mouth.

"You really should have had a promised guardian with them in the church." He said smirking.

"Strigoi can't go in the church and they're far from stupid, so I know they didn't walk out." I growled.

"Compulsion may not work on you, darling, but it does work on these three." He smiled motioning towards Christian, Lissa, and Johnathon. "I've been thinking," She said rubbing his chin. "As much fun as it would be to have fun with you myself," This earned a glare and snarl from Dimitri who stepped closer. "I want to know how well you'll fare against your bastard of a brother." He motioned Johnathon forward, and that's when I noticed something wasn't right. He had a far away look in his eyes that screamed that he was not in control. I looked over at Christian and Lissa who where holding the girls to keep them from running to me.

Johnathon stalked forward a few more steps, then with the blink of an eye, he launched himself at me, knocking me down in the process. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Dimitri take on two strigoi that I didn't notice before. A third strigoi came up behind him, knocking the stake out of his hand, helping the other two pin him against the wall. I looked back at Johnathon and flipped him under me easily pinning him there. He was avoiding my eyes and I knew that if I got him to look me in the eyes he would break out of the compulsion.

"Johnathon, look at me." I whispered, grabbing his face to make him look at me. "Stop." With that one word he stopped struggling and I moved him to the corner of the room to keep him away from Chris.

I started towards Lissa and Christian.

"Rose!" Dimitri screamed, but it was to late. Chris had pinned me to the ground.

"I guess I should have known better than to make that bastard attack you." He snarled.

"Don't talk about him like that." I spit.

"I guess I'm just going to have to take care of you myself." He started to unbutton my flantal shirt while Dimitri struggled to get loose while screaming at the girls not to look. I gave up on struggling considering the fact that I couldn't move. Then I remembered reading about Anna and St. Vladimir with Christian. Anna used to use Vladimir's magic to kill strigoi on many occasions when she was almost beat. Almost.

I started to think about everyone I loved: Dimitri, Jenna, Chelsea, Johnathon, Lissa, and Christian. Then I thought about what this bastard did to me. He beat Johnathon, killed my grandmother, and took away my purity. He made me a bloodwhore. That thought sent me over the edge. He was down to the last button as I felt the warmness of the magic coursing through me. Then he looked up as he unbuttoned the last one.

"Let me up." I said sternly as my head tilted to the side slightly. He began to look disoriented as he complied. "Release them." He did as he was told again. When they were free I let the compulsion slide away unable to hold onto it any longer. Dimitri staked the strigoi, and Chris pulled out a knife on him as Dimitri swiftly staked him in the heart. I was unable to support myself any longer. I fell to the ground, and the last thing I saw before slipping into unconsciousness was the girls and Dimitri rushing towards me as Lissa passed out as well.

Dimitri POV

She was laying in our room still unconscious. I was still in shock that sh was able to compulse Chris. The kids had went with Lissa and Christian to help clean up the academy with a couple of alchemists. Suddenly Roza's hand tightened in mine as she pulled into consciousness.

"Dimitri?" She whispered.

"I'm right here, milaya." I whispered as I stroked her hair.

"What happened to Chris?" She said worriedly.

"He's dead." I said, the venom in my voice making my accent thicker.

"What about the kids?"

"The kids are fine, milaya." She sighed. "I'm sorry I couldn't stop him sooner, Roza." I said.

"It's not your fault." She said, placing her had on my cheek.

"Yes it is. It's my job to protect you and I couldn't." I replied, placing my hand over hers.

"You did. He's dead now and I'm fine." I sighed.

"He would have raped you again."

"He didn't." She argued.

"He undressed you." I said coldly.

"That's not your fault, comrade." She said in a lighter tone.

"I'm sorry. I-" She cut me off with a passionate kiss that left me wanting more.

"It's over. He's dead, and he can't hurt us anymore." She said sternly, and effectively ending the conversation. I kissed her deeply.

"I love you so much, Roza."

"I love you too, tovarishch." That one word set me off into a deep frenzy that wanted nothing more than to have her in my arms forever. And now I get to.
