Rose Hathaway

Rose Hathaway is a student at St. Vladimir's Academy in Montana. As a dhampir, Rose is in training to become a guardian for a member of the Moroi vampire society, Lissa Dragomir. Rose has recently returned to the academy after running away with Lissa for two years to protect her from a member of another royal Moroi family who wanted to use her magic gift of spirit to heal him. For that reason, Rose is fighting to catch up with the rest of her class.

Rose is to be Lissa's guardian with Dimitri Belikov, one of her instructors at the academy. During Rose's fight for Lissa against Victor Dashkov, Rose and Dimitri were placed under a lust spell that caused them to become deeply romantic with one another. This has blossomed into a full blown love for Rose, but Dimitri has put the brakes on the relationship...
