בקצרה, כתבתי את זה בספרד אחרי שגמרתי את "Shadow Kiss". [אחרי זה היתה לי הפסקה של בערך שלושה שבועות, ואז, עקב מספר סיבות שונות [כן, לא היה לי מה לקרוא, חברה שלי (שהשאילה לי את הספרים) נדנדה לי לקרוא וקראתי בטעות את המשפט האחרון של הספר האחרון ומתתי לדעת עם מי רוז בסוף], החלטתי שהגיע הזמן להמשיך לרביעי המייאש להפליא. החמישי, אגב, היה טוב. ומחר נתחיל את השישי ^^].

בכ"מ, כשכתבתי את זה עוד לא ידעתי מה קורה ב-"Blood Promise" או ב-"Spirit Bound", ככה שזה בהחלט לא תואם את מה שקורה שם. [נדייק, היה לי ברור שדימיטרי לא ימות, כי להפוך את אחת משלוש הדמויות הראשיות שלך לסטריגוי ולהרוג אותה אלה דברים שונים, בסופו של דבר. אבל זה לא העניין].

כתוב באנגלית, מהסיבה הפשוטה שאם לא זה כנראה אומר לתרגם כל מיני מונחים מאנגלית, ולא התחשק לי לעשות את זה.

אינג'וי.

Dimitri.

The last time I saw you, everything seemed perfect. I thought that for once, everything will be okay. I thought that I'll get to actually be with you, show you how I love you. Show the world how much I love you.

In a few hours, everything has changed. Because of one Strigoi, because of one bite, the life I wished for my 18th birthday was gone. In one moment, it vanished in the air, like we've never planned it. But it wasn't just the life I wished for who was gone, but my life. Because I died when I heard it. And I died when I had to leave Lissa to keep my promise to you. And then, I died in the last time... Staking myself as I staked you.

There were so many things I wanted to do, so many things left to say. I wanted to feel warm and safe again, like only you managed to make me feel. I wanted to feel you with me again, hear you comforting words and know that I'll never be alone. I wanted to see your so-rare-full-smile again, fall into the dark depths that were your eyes, the eyes I loved so much and felt so happy to see looking at me with love and pride I couldn't believe I'll ever see again.

And last... I wanted to feel you again. Touch you. Feel you lying in a bed next to me, hugging and kissing me, stroking my hair and whispering my name like only you did. Roza.

Dimitri...

There were so many things I wanted to see, so many things I wanted to experience- all with you. I wanted to visit your hometown and Russia with you, not alone, looking for you. I wanted to go to college with Lissa and come back to the Court, knowing that you'll be waiting for you. I wanted to live the life I wanted to live before the attack, the life I was completely happy to live.

I know... I know you wanted me to live, no matter what happens to you. I know you wanted me to move on. I know you wanted to make sure I'll live and be happy for as long as possible- happy and safe. But as much as I want to - knowing that just like that trip, I'll be doing this for you - I can't. Because they're coming.

I've escaped death once. It cannot happen again.

I love you, Dimitri. I did almost from the moment we've met, and you know that I'll always love you.

Rose.

לא יודעת, אגב, למה בחרתי להקליד אותו דווקא עכשיו. רציתי לעשות את זה כשחזרנו. אבל לא משנה.
