Chapter 4. Something Wicked This Way Comes
I didn't know what was wrong with me as I threw myself on my bed in the moon dormitories. my heart beat like crazy when Senrei got so close to me I felt like it would burst from my chest. I roll over on my side my strapless lavender and light blue chiffon dress rustling with my movement. The black comforter that lay over my bed soft against my cheek as I looked over at the human skull on my desk. It was bleached white with age my great grandfather had known this human although my family is no longer on this earth, the skull still brought me comfort. I sigh my foresty green eyes closing as I roll back onto my back my arm moving to rest on my forhead. The ball had been stressful to say the least. didn't those damn aristocrates know I wasn't some breeder? and on top of that somehow Yuki had found her way there at the party. I just knew that was a bad sign. Stupid Rido. I just knew it had to be him at the root of all of this. the damn asshole. Slowly I sit up hearing footsteps outside of my door.
"come in Kaname." I said already knowing it was my adoptive brother.
Kaname peaked into my room the dark hair on his head almost bending in with the wallpaper on my walls. his equally dark eyes looking at me in slight worry. I knew he could sense my frustration.
"it's nothing big brother." I said smiling brightly like I always tryed to do around him. "I was just fed up with all the marrage proposal's that's all."
He nods as he moved over to my bed taking a seat on the edge next to me.
"you have the same feeling I do right? about how Yuki was at the ball?" he asked.
I nodded no matter what front I put up he always seemed to see through it.
"yes. I-I can't help but think it has something to do with That Man." I said my green eyes down cast looking at my pale hands situated in my lap. "If he is moving this soon then Yuki may be in danger."
Kaname gave me a gentle look his red brown eyes soft.
"there is no need to worry Akane." he said his voice calm. "I have planned for everything."
I nodded once again as he got up off my bed moving to leave my room. He looks back over his shoulder.
"you should really feed your looking a bit unhealthy." he said before moving out of my door.
I smile softly. He was still acting like a caring older brother. I make my way to my desk stripping of the light chiffon dress as I do the fabric clinging to my skin as it dropps to the floor. I yawn as I pull on a tight tank top before moving to my bathroom sink to fill a cup with water before dropping a blood tablet into it the water slowly turning a see through red I grimance at the thought of drinking it. I hated the bland taste. I quickly down the glass before putting it down and walking back to my bed crawling under the comforter and curling up as the sun begins to rise. Never once did I feel the gaze of the light purple eyes that looked at me through the window of my room as I slept.
