Quicker update! I don't know if ALL my new updates will be this quick, but hopefully they will be =3


Chapter 4 – Let The Games Begin – Kaname's POV

A blinding rage filled me as Kiryu and Krysa turned the corner to face me.

You would think that it was because of the way Krysa had completely shamed my future mate only yesterday, and how Kiryu simply stood their watched. You would think it was because my over-sensitive hearing was the only one able to pick up Kiryu's laughter that night from the opposite side of the school. You would think KIRYU was the one I'd be mad at, as he – the Level D – should know better than let someone disrespect the purebloods which have kept him alive.

Yet as my eyes shifted between the two, I found all of my fury directed at the smaller girl to his right.


1 Day Before...

I watched in utter horror as Kiryu clung onto some girl as if his life depended on it. My eyes remained glued to his all too familiar figure as he picked up the girl and spun her round, with a happiness I'd never seen on his face... ever. I kept watching as my Ze... no, not my Zero, as Kiryu smiled and laughed at this person, his eyes shining with a delight I'd never seen before.

He'd never looked at me like that...

The thought caused my heart to pound in a not so pleasant way - another thing which was all too familiar.

It's been three years since I left... no, since I abandoned Kiryu, and I did it in the cruellest way possible. I left with no explanation, and simply walked out on him. I thought I was doing the right thing for the both of us, I thought there was no need for explanation...

I was wrong.

So very wrong.

And now, it's too late for me to make things to go back the way they were, there's not point in me trying to justify myself now.

He hates me.

End of story.

I made the biggest mistake of my life by choosing the wrong person to spend it with, and I'd realised that too late.

I became aware of my surrounding as I realised Yuki – or the empty shell of the Yuki I used to know – let go of my arm and I looked up.

I watched in downright amusement as this girl told Yuki about herself, biting back a chuckle as when I realised that everything she said – even about me – was completely true. Yet almost instantly, that respect was replaced with jealousy as she linked arms with Kiryu and he gladly showed her the away. I couldn't stop wanton eyes from watching him his retreating figure.

He'd never let me touch him like that...

The day followed more or less normally, with Yuki bitching continuously about that girl – whose name I found out was Krysa. As I sat in physics I could hear the faint laughter of two people, and I instantly knew that one voice was Kiryu's. He was laughing? LAUGHING? Zero Kiryu who only ever glared - and if you were lucky enough, graced you with a quiet chuckle – was LAUGHING? And THIS LOUDLY? I strained my ears, realising that the other laughing voice was Krysa's and the jealousy returned with a vengeance.

He'd never laughed with me like that...

Who the hell was this girl? What made her so special that Zero would let his guard down like this? Even when we were lovers, I NEVER saw this side of him, NEVER.

"Kaname-sama?" I snapped out of my thoughts, realising I was emitting a deadly aura which was scaring the others in class.

"Sorry Sir, could you repeat the question?" I mumbled, hiding my aura, allowing the others around me to breathe easy. I glanced at Yuki, who was beaming happily at me, she probably thinks all that anger was for her... I snorted inwardly, returning my thoughts, just as unwelcome voice chimed in my head.

You have no right to feel this way.

You were the one who abandoned him.

You were the one who made him cry.

And now, you want to be the one to destroy his happiness?

The truthful words cut deep, and I found myself aching inside. It was true; I was the one who left him shattered. For the last three years, I watched as the Zero I loved changed, completely losing himself and becoming completely unreachable. Everyday I would see him, standing at his usual place just out of sight of the Night Class... and everyday I unconsciously found myself turning around, just to check he was there. But...

Even if I did do that to him, can't I at least try to make things right now?

I stood up in class, excusing myself as I grabbed my bag and headed quickly through the door. The minute I was through, I used my vampire speed to get me to the Chairman's office. I knocked quietly, awaiting a response.

"Come in" I walked in to find Cross bent over a flower pot and rolled my eyes.

"Cross, I would like you to do something for me, something involving Zero Kiryu..."


Present Day...

"Can I have a word with you please?" My eyes finally settled on Zero, who refused to look at me and turned to Krysa questioningly – ignoring my presence. "I'm talking to the both of you" I could feel the fury inside of me building once more.

"No one's stopping you from talking," My eyes turned away from Zero to the girl next to him, who was staring at my face with a blank expression. I focused a little more of my energy into controlling my aura and continued.

"Both of you are wanted by Chairman Cross, now" I turned away and began heading to the Chairman's office, only fastening my pace when I heard two sets of footsteps behind me. The two remained silent behind me, and the only noise filling the halls of Cross Academy was our breathing and the quiet howling of the wind. All the while, the irritation was still pumping in my veins; Kiryu didn't even acknowledge me, he just turned to Krysa instantly. What REALLY was so special about this girl? What the HELL can she do that I couldn't?

...She can stop his tears; you could only start them...

I sighed heavily, cursing my logical mind for always conjuring the answers I never wanted to hear. I looked up and realised I was in front of Cross' office, and knocked once before opening the door.

"Ah, you're all here! Please, take a seat!" I moved towards the two chairs to the left of the room and sat in one, going with the false hope that Zero would follow and sit in the other seat. I was proven wrong, and sat silently spitting curses at Krysa as she sat down, with Zero balancing himself on the armrest of her chair.

"Krysa! It's nice that you've come along too."

"Of course Cross, Zero is useless without me" She beamed at him, and I snorted, causing everyone – except Zero, who again chose to ignore – to turn to me. Cross looked at me pleadingly, whilst Krysa's purple eyes looked me up and down, before turning away with disgust. That little—

"Anyways! Zero, Krysa, I have some news for you – however I'm not sure you'll be too happy with the news I'm bringing—"

"What's going on Cross?" Zero spoke up for the first time, eyes fixed only on Cross, as if he'd forgotten I was there. I could feel my heart sinking...

Does he really hate me that much?

"Zero, Krysa, as of next week you two will be living in the Moon Dorms, and become Night Class students" I watched as expressions of shock and revulsion crossed the two faces, and I grinned to myself.

Let the games begin.
