The King's lilac eyes scanned through the crowd of vampires in the large and flamboyantly decorated room. He hadn't spoken a word the whole evening in fact he had hardly even acknowledged any of his guests. The pale King had taken the entire evening in his elaborately carved cherry wood chair in the center of the room and tried to remain hidden. Which was of course impossible for the pureblood because not only was he a Royal it was also said Royal's twentieth birthday.
Zero bit the corner of his lip, ever so carefully as to not draw blood and make the entire room go in a frenzy. His eyes lazily continued to scan the crowd of well dressed, faceless individuals. He scanned over the large ballroom over the band playing, over the long tables of food, the piles of useless gifts he was brought. All of it meant nothing to the young King; all he wanted was for the night to be over.
His gaze fell to his own lap and as he stared at his black loose fitting jeans his eyes slowly closed. The sounds that surrounded him slowly faded away as his mind took him off to other places till a sharp nudge startled him out of his day dream.
Rubbing his side as if it was sore he narrowed his eyes at the girl in front of him.
"Don't fall asleep at your own party now!" The small brunette yelled.
"I wasn't." Zero nearly whispered as his gaze softened.
"You so were. Can't you at least try to be enthused, its your birthday!" As the girl talked she nearly bounced with excitement.
"Let's put it this way, if I didn't have to be here, I wouldn't." The Silver haired boy glanced painfully around the dying party.
"Oh hush. If you didn't have to do anything you wouldn't do anything." The girl put her hand on her slender hip and made an over dramatic frown then continued. "That's what you look like, I depressed fish." She frowned again in a very dramatic way.
Zero frowned deeper and glared up at the girl.
"That's no way to talk to your King, Yuki." He watched as the girl nearly lost her head.
"No of course not! But that's how I talk to my annoying step brother." Yuki was flustered and was showing clear signs of it. Her small face had turned bright pink and she was puffing her cheeks out like a mad blowfish.
In truth Yuki wasn't really Zero's step sister, a few years before Zero's parents were killed by a rival Pureblood wanting the throne, they had adopted the human girl and raised her in the Vampire courts. No one knows why they took sympathy on the orphaned human child but they did. Zero looked up to his parents a great deal; they were very kind and ruled justly something he was trying to follow.
"Are you listening!?" A sharp screech brought him back from his thoughts again and he looked back at his younger sister.
"I said I had something special for you." Yuki repeated with a real frown on her face this time.
"Is it a pony?" Zero asked sarcastically.
"A pony!" The young girl jumped closer and scrunched her fists into tight balls. "Why would I get you a pony, you have stables full of horses!"
Zero winced and moved his hands to his temples as he continued to stare at the infuriated girl.
" Well, ponies are cute." Zero shrugged as he said the simple sentence.
Yuki glared daggers at her older brother for a moment then continued. "You are impossible you know that right? No its not a pony. Its…well …its. "The girl paused and looked confused.
"I don't really know what it is to be honest I paid a friend to go into the town and pick it up, But I am sure you will love it!" The small girl flashed a heartfelt smile.
"If you don't know what it is, then how do you know I will like it?" Zero narrowed his eyes and leaned forward in his chair.
Yuki flashed red and puffed her cheeks out in response to Zero's mocking.
"I just know you will!" She nearly screamed.
"But you don't even know wha-" Zero started but was cut off but the small girl's outraged yells.
"I just know ok! " And with that the small girl spun around and marched off in a puff.
Zero continued to sit in his spot as he watched the party die down and one by one the guest say goodbye and leave. After most of the guests had departed and the servants started to clean up the festivities did the King finally deem it safe to escape.
He rose from his chair and stretched his aching back before slowly exiting the ballroom towards his private chambers. Right as he exited the large room he was greeted with a loud and familiar sight.
"Come one, come on! We have to go see what I got you." Yuki was standing at the entry way to the hall grinning from ear to ear.
"Can't it wait till tomorrow night, I am exhausted." Zero yawned rather dramatically and stuck his hands in his pockets.
"No it can't besides I had it delivered to your room so you wouldn't have to go out of your way." The girl raised a eye brown and eyed the older boy up and down.
"Did you seriously wear that to your party?" Yuki turned and almost skipped down the hallway.
Zero glanced down at this dark pants and loosely buttoned up shirt. He had always dressed casual. Hell as King he thought he could dress however he pleased. Seeing nothing wrong with his rather sloppy appearance he followed his sister towards his rooms.
Finally he made his way through the maze of halls to his private wing he noticed Yuki standing in front of one of his sitting rooms. He noted how she was shaking with excitement.
"It seems you are more excited than I am." Zero paused next to the smaller girl and glanced towards the closed door. "Is it in here?" He asked.
" Yes yes yes it is. I made specific instructions to have it put in here." Yuki was shaking and grinning from the sheer excitement.
"Well a pony surely can't fit in there." Zero said in his usual apathetic tone.
Yuki slapped her brother's arm.
"Its not a pony for gods sake!" Yuki pushed past the Silver haired boy and opened the door to the sitting room.
The door opened to a lavish red room, filled with a large fireplace and elaborate red sofas and seats. The pair took a step in the room and looked around.
"You got me a empty room?"Zero asked as he looked around the seemingly empty room.
"No I got you something…I just don't know. It should be here." Yuki frowned as she looked around the red room.
As Zero scanned the room he saw something move behind the sofa and crossed the room quickly. When the Pureblood peeked behind the edge of the sofa his lilac eyes were met with big brown ones staring back at him. It was a boy.
"Um Yuki." Zero stared at the boy hiding behind the sofa. He was about the same age as Zero with longer brown hair and wide brown eyes. The boy was clutching a pale green envelope in his hands.
Yuki came around the end of the sofa and let out a scream.
" What? Who is that?" She pointed at the boy on the ground. "And he is holding the birthday card I picked out for you!" Her face was in utter shock.
"Well that kinda answers the question now doesn't it?" Zero continued to stare at the boy. He noted that the brunette was wearing pale blue jeans and a white t-shirt with a thick spiked collar around his neck.
The brunette opened his mouth to say something and showed his fangs in the process which earned a gasp from the two siblings.
"So you bought me a vampire?" Zero glanced at his red faced sister.
"I didn't think I did. This certainly was not what I asked for." Yuki sank to the floor and stared at the nameless vampire boy in front of her.
"What exactly did you ask for?" Zero reached forward and gently took the card out of the trembling brunets hands.
"Trust me it wasn't this.." Yuki stared at the boy unable to blink. " What is your name?" She asked innocently.
"Uh Kaname..Um" The trembling boy began to speak and the siblings listened carefully.
"Some guy came in the shop and said He uh..worked for the Royal family and needed something." The boy nervously looked down as the pair of siblings stared at him.
"And?" Both and Zero and Yuki said at the same time.
"And..He said it was short notice and My Master made a deal with him for a lot of money and now I am here.." The boy trailed off.
"What kind of shop were you in exactly?" Zero asked as he opened the light green birthday card.
"Uh..a s-slave auction. They said I would belong to the King and that..that I was to please your..uh every desire." The boy stuttered and flushed bright red.
Zero snapped his head up from the card to stare wide eyed at the boy as Yuki fell backwards onto the floor gasping for air.
"Good job Yuki, you bought me a whore."
