Rose Hathaway has been keeping a secret from everyone, including her best friend, Lissa Dragomir. Lucas Ozera was married when he and Janine Hathaway had a night together. They didn't love each other romantically, but they were friends. Janine found out that she was pregnant and told Lucas. They decided that she would raise the baby alone. She had Rose in late March. Moira had Christian in April. Moira knew about Rose. Her marriage survived, but was rocky. Rose and Christian grew up together. Lucas and Moira willingly turned Strigoi and came for Christian when he was 15. They didn't expect for Rose to be visiting her Aunt Tasha at that time. That day was when Christian died, like literally died. He'd be in the shadows of the dead if not for Rose. Rose is a very special vampire, born from a Moroi and a dhampir, who happens to possess magic and has the physical characteristics of a dhampir. Rose called upon her spirit abilities and saved Christian and along the process became bonded to him.
