Chapter 3

Lissa POV

I knew that Rose was going to need her sleep- I hadn't told her that Dimitri was Viktoria and Alyssa's mentor. It had been the only option because they were so much better than everybody in their class.

They were so good, that sometimes they could even pin Dimitri, and Dimitri was better than he was before too. He loved them like his own and I knew that if Rose told him that they were his, he would be overjoyed. But she wouldn't. She was just too stubborn.

But I knew that this was something that Rose had to do herself. She still hadn't even told Viki and Liss yet.

Dimitri had kept bugging me about who their real parents were since they looked nothing like Sydney or Adrian. Eventually I had given in, but I only told him that their mom was in another country, and that I didn't know where the father was, which was a lie.

Recently, he had been pestering me about when he would be able to meet the parents. He had said that it was the least a parent could do was to check in on their children.

I had finally told him that the mother would be coming down in a week. That would only give Rose two days before she had to talk to him, and I wasn't sure how she would handle it.

I knew that she was definitely going to be pissed at me and probably even more so because I didn't warn her earlier, but that was the main reason why I hoped she would get some sleep. So that she might be in a better mood when I had to tell her tomorrow.

Right now, I was actually debating weather I should just wait until five minutes before to tell her, but that would just be cruel. She would probably just end up getting more pissed at me, and I definitely did not need that. I knew that she needed time before she could see him.

Even after 17 years, she was still broken, and I knew that the only way she could ever be whole again was if Dimitri fixed her.

She could try and deny it, but Dimitri was the only one that could ever fix her. I know that she believed that over time, her heart would heal, but I knew that deep down, she would never be completely healed.

Dimitri was her only hope, and I would do everything in my power to try and get him and Rose back together.
