When I made it back to my room I went to the mirror and looked at myself. I may still be 17 but over the last month and a half I have outgrown my features drastically. I didn't think it would happen this quickly, but it is. The doctor had point blanked told me that I might not look like myself because of what's happened- which is one of the main reasons for me leaving. I blinked the tears quickly away and I fell asleep.

I smiled at Lissa weakly, not wanting her to know any of it. "C'mon Lissa! Let's just forget about it and let me have you as my charge."

She shook her head. "Rose, no. I'm the queen and I said no. I don't want you to go and put yourself at risk even more than you already are."

"That's not your choice to make Lissa!" I exclaimed and watched her. She had three other guardians- including Dimitri surrounding her as she sat on her throne. She had on one of the most desirable and beautiful crowns ever on the top of her head. She was decked out in the usual attire for a queen- fancy jewels on her wrists, ears, and hair pins that secured the crown in place. It was the most gorgeous thing I've ever seen in the world.

"It is." Lissa said and tilts her chin up while looking very much like a queen. "Your not fit to be my guardian and you will leave at once. Alberta will give you your newest assignment." She waved her hand dismissing me.

"Rose! " I heard my mother's voice as she shook me. "Rose, are you okay?" I blinked and looked into the eyes of my mom- who hovered over me.

I sat up and nodded. "Yeah. Fine. It was just a dream, nothing to worry about."

She stayed close to me and I saw the protective gaze she sometimes wore when I was in danger. "Mom, I'm fine. Really. It was just a dream. I didn't have seizure so I'm fine." The doctor had told me I could have those in a couple of months from my condition. But I didn't think it would be this soon.

"Okay." My mother says and steps back but only an inch. She really was worried about me and that was another reason I was keeping myself from the Academy while I was going through this. I didn't want anyone worrying about me.

"Should we get you out for a bit?"

That actually sounded like the perfect idea and I said, "Yes! That be a great idea."

"Okay. " my mother said. "Get dressed. We leave in ten."

Lissa's POV

I walked to Christian's room a sad expression crossed my face. It's been two months since she disappeared. I didn't know why she left. I just hoped she was okay. That's all I wanted for her. I had two guardians'  at my back as I went inside Christian's room.

He sat on his bed, hair rumpled from stressful days at his work at court- which is where we now live. Simply because the academy reminds me too much of Rose. I hated that she didn't tell me anything before she left. It killed me to be honest. She is my best friend. I wanted to help her if I could. He looked up and smiled when he saw me. He was the only thing technically keeping me here. There were some days where I felt like giving up, not wanting to do crap because my best friend had walked off the face of the earth and nobody could find me a single trace. I was also queen.. But I didn't really like it. I thought if I became queen I could get a search party out looking for Rose but nothing worked. She was indefinitely untraceable. She covered her tracks good. I even had a search party go out to Russia to look for her. Nothing came up though.

I felt Christian's hand on my waist as he brought me to him. I breathed in his scent and closed my eyes as I let out a small choked sob. "What am I going to do, Christian?"

He rubbed circles into my back as he comforted me. "There isn't anything you can do. You just have to tell yourself that's she's alright. Wherever she might be." He told me. I sighed and cried into his shoulder- so much that I ended up passing out. Christian had put me on the bed where I slept for a day.
