Chapter 1. Welcome Home.

The taxi car's interior leather seating was in the color of beige and tan, the walls were a dark navy blue, and it had the scent of a freshly watered, lonely forest; though, it was not the only scent found in the taxi.

The other scent was blood, though not just any blood, it was the blood of the pureblood, Kaname Kuran; the sweetest smelling blood even in existence, according to Yuuki's thoughts.

He was left of her, staring blankly out the clean window, perhaps thinking or plotting.

Yuuki just gazed and gazed at his dark, trench coat covered frame, perfectly shaped by angels of the Heavens, how beautiful was his frame and figure; she always wanted to caress and hold his body when she was a young child, her thoughts of him never changed, he was all so gorgeous to her- a piece of pale artwork.

Her gaze then moved to her crossed hands, feeling a sudden emotion of tense nervousness, caused by thinking of his beauty. His head twisted and his maroon colored eyes darted at her, giving her a warm glance, she peeked through her bangs; her heart began to race.

"W…What?" She softly murmured out, her crossed hands tightened; his lips extended a soft and small grin, turning himself to face her, "Yuuki," He spoke with a soothing tone, "You look nervous."

Yuuki gasped inside her throat, "But I'm not..." She protested in a soft tone, his grin slightly grew, "Yuuki, you're not telling the truth," Her head leaned upward to gaze into his eyes; his beautiful eyes.

She lightly blushed, "I'm sorry, It's just… It's going to be so difficult to adjust to this life style now," Her hands release one another and gently grip the car's seat, "-But if it's for my brother, then so be it," His grin shrunk, though did not entirely disappear.

"Thank you," His tone deepened, "Yuuki…"

His head twisted back toward the window, staring out once again, she then immediately felt awkward and looked out of the window next to her.

A half an hour passed, still sitting as they were, Yuuki gasps inside her throat, viewing the wilderness outside, "We're almost home," Kaname gently spoke, he sounded tired and bored, she grinned, tears formed inside her eyes, "H-Home," She inhaled a quiver, "I can't wait."

Moments later, the Taxi stops in front of the gate, Yuuki and Kaname then open their car doors and grab their luggage out of the trunk before Kaname pays the man who drove the taxi who a few minutes later, drove away.

Kaname softly sighs out, "Let's go," Yuuki nodded in reply, slowly walking to Kaname's side as he unlocks the gate with a rather large key.

The gate opened which after, Kaname's arm immediately wrapped around her shoulders and pushed her along the long, dirt path.

Moments later, he leads them out of the path into the wilderness, with sudden confusion; Yuuki stops Kaname, "Where are we going?" She questioned with a small pout; Kaname softly smiled at her pout, "We're going through a cave which leads to your old room," Kaname stares forward and begins to push Yuuki once again, "Just to be safe, I sense there might be enemies of us to avenge Rido."

Yuuki's eyes widened, Kaname's last words lingered in her mind, 'To avenge Rido…'

Kaname then stops them from walking any farther, turning Yuuki into another direction, letting her view the cave; she felt an intense tingle, "Is this it?" Her head turned to the side to get a glance of his face as he nodded slowly; her head turns back to view the cave once again.

"Do the enemies know this passage?"

"Not at all, that's why I chose to take this way here."

"Are you positive?"

"I am."

She softly blushes before she begins to slowly walk into the tight sized cave; he followed her, tightening his grip on her shoulders, making her lead them through; feeling his firm hands on her shoulders made her feel embarrassed, causing her to blush deeper.

About thirteen minutes pass, suddenly arriving at a tall, heavy door; Kaname then hands her the same key that he unlocked the gate with, "Use this."

For a moment, she fondled and fidgeted with the key before forcing it inside the door lock's hole, thus unlocking it; slightly opening the door as Kaname squeezed at her shoulder, causing her blush to form back.

Yuuki's fingers slid against the sides of the door, opening them to reveal her old room in which she spent most of her childhood as a Kuran in, her eyes widen, Kaname's face then dug into her hair gently, softly whispering into it, "Welcome home, Yuuki."
