Beautiful Nightmare
Slowly, I was walking in the dark large room. Not a single ray of light can enter the place. I can feel the cold and heavy atmosphere present in the place. Instincts are the only one that guides me as I slowly tip toed on the carpeted floor. Suddenly, in the middle of the darkness, I felt a pair of strong arms envelope my fragile body. In spite of the lack of light in the place, I can recognize who HE was. He gave my ear a soft blow that made me shiver. Then in his low and hard voice plus his British accent he said... "Stay still". He lowers his face near my neck and again softly blows it. Then I felt a sudden pain in my neck then to my breast until it filled my whole body. I can feel him slowly sucking my blood. After a moment of pain, it suddenly changed into ecstasy. Then my vision failed me, I completely saw darkness.
They say not all dreams are true or happen in real life. Everyone have his or her interpretation about their own dreams. It is part of human life to have dreams and it is your own choice whether to believe it or not. For me nightmares and dreams are the same, it's just that we find it hard to accept that most of the time nightmares are the one that is more realistic that our own fantasies. But it is normal to dream the same dream every night since childhood?
Yuki is the name given to me by my parents or should I say foster parents. They told me that my real parents died and from then on I became a Cross .Well maybe I wasn't the luckiest girl in town, I just have learned that my foster parents died in an accident. Now, I am really alone.
The family attorney went to our house inn the middle of my mourning. "It is stated in the last will and testament of your parents that if ever something bad happened to them you will be in the care of your family's long time friend."
So here am I, sitting in the back seat of the car, watching the rice fields as we pass through them. "Are we there yet?" I asked the driver in black suit. He looks like in his middle 40s, "Not yet my lady, the family prefer to be far from town." He said.
"Away from the town? Why?" I asked out of curiosity.
"Forgive me, I don't know, I'm just a mere driver after all."
We stop in front of a humungous mansion, no not just a mansion... it's more like a castle in the Victorian era. The driver told me that he can only accompany me here. He is not allowed to go inside. 'Why?' I asked but he didn't even reply.
'At least I'm not completely alone... right?' I tried to be optimistic.
I walked in the castle with my bag in hand. It is more magnificent inside than outside. Every corner is decorated with antique artifacts made of gold and bronze. Even the ceiling and floor are very detailed. There are also high staircases that meet in the middle; that make it looks like a queen will come down. It is a shame that it is a bit dark in here; I can't see the whole house.
"You might be Ms. Yuki Cross" a voice with a British accent said near the stairs. A beautiful man came out of the dark. He looks like a god that the Greeks worshipped during the ancient times. For a second a held my breath, I can't believe this kind of man even exist.
"Uhm. Ms Cross?" he said again in a gentle voice. "Yeah?" was all that can come out of my mouth. "I am Kaname, the first son of the family. I'm sorry to inform you but my parents passed away a year ago." He explained as we walk through the empty halls of the mansion. "I'm sorry." I said with sadness present in my voice. "No, it is okay." He said forcing a smile.
"So you live alone?" I asked. "Oh no. I'm not alone, shall I introduce you to my companion?" he said as he opens the door in front of us.
Then a beautiful room appears in front of me. It looks like a room for a precious princess. In the middle of the room is a king size bed with beautiful red sheets. And in every table a bouquet of red roses is present with a vase. Even the curtains are beautiful and very detailed. "Wow" was all that I comprehend.
"Do you like it?" he asked. "Who wouldn't?" I said. "Well. That's perfect because from now on this will be your room." He said with a smile. "MY room?" I asked in disbelief. "Yes." He said. "Thank you very much. But how did you know that I like the color red?" I asked. "I really didn't know, I just thought the color of blood will suit you perfectly." He said in a strange voice. The sound of his voice and its coldness gives me a chill that run down my spine.
I walk through the room and then stop near the window. There I saw a garden that is a lot bigger than my previous home. In the middle of the garden stood a young man, even from far away I can sense that he is looking at me. No, he is literally staring at me. He's expression is blank that I can't read what is he thinking. "Who are you?" I uttered softly. Then his expression changed. But his expression didn't make me happy but instead make me take a step back from where I am standing. There in the middle he stood now facing my direction. His eyes blazing with fire is glaring at me, his face full of anger, hatred and disgust.
"He is Zero." Kaname said. I didn't even realize he is standing in my back, staring in the window. "Zero?" I asked. "Yes, he is my younger brother." He said as he walks out of the room. When I look at the window again, he is gone, Zero is gone.
Meanwhile,(Zero's POV)
"How dare you interrupt my meal? You bastard!" Kaname said as his hand slap my face. I want to stand up and fight but I can't. I can't fight a pureblood after all. "Speak out. Why did you do that?" he asked again beating me up. "You can't eat her now, she is too young...too innocent." I said. He let go of my neck. "Right, I must wait for the right time, after all an in love woman taste is perfect." He said with an evil smile. I will never allow you to touch her with your dirty hands. I thought as I watch his back walking away. "I'll protect her with my life." I said as everything went black in my eyes.
