Chapter 4 Jealousy on the day of love


Valentine's day! Also known as the day of love, it is the day when a person conveys his or her feelings towards their loved one, the person they have a crush on etc etc. This day is also celebrated in famous Cross Academy under the tittle of St. Xocolotto Day. That day every student is allowed to give chocolate to their loved one and express their feelings. It's a tradition that has been going on in that academy for ages. Here is one common fact about this St. Xocolotto Day in Cross Academy, the day class consisting of humans are the givers and the famous night class elite meaning the vampires are the receivers. This year was no different. And that is why the expression on Kaname Kuran's usually blank poker face was not so surprised yet very very very surprised when his child returned home with almost two sack full of various different kinds of chocolates. Not so surprised because it was his beautiful daughter that they are speaking off, offcourse she is bound to get attention from the opposite gender; but, this much attention he did not expect.

"You seem a lot surprised." Kaname felt a pair of slim arms wrapping around his waist from the back.

"My little child has grown up even before i realized." The pureblood commented back. "Do you not find it astonishing too?"

"Hmmm..." was the response Ruka purred nuzzling her face against his back.

To say that the surprise was over was would be wrong; because Veronica returned home with the presents and chocolates she received from the day day class at school. The night class males didn't go on distributing presents like the day class. As for them, the vampires, prefers to be fancy. Later after midnight one by one huge boxes of chocolate paired with massive bouquet of flowers and adorable looking stuffed animals started to come into the kuran mansion; sent by heirs and sons of most noble and pureblood families.

With the first ten entries Kaname Kuran was fine. In fact he felt proud of his daughter and was glad that his subjects accepted her even though she is not his real flesh and blood. But as the number crossed forty his insides tensed, when the number crossed hundred he panicked. although his face showed nothing he panicked, he panicked so very much, the reason being not aware that so many families and their son's were interested in her. A part of Kaname found that abnormal...his mind seriously wondered how can one have so much admirers.

...

"Onii-sama," Yuki's voice came out a bit nervous from the other side of the phone. "Are you sure there is nothing going on in your mind?"

"I'm glad Yuki that even after all these years you can so easily read me." Kaname spoke sensually almost nuzzling onto the phone's receiver.

Yuki gulped nervously on the other side of the phone. At time like these she actually wanted to hangup on him, but couldn't. For those of you who thought Kaname Kuran did not flirt...had it all wrong. Because the pureblood king did flirt, he did show intense sexual interest but why it got unnoticed? The reason being that he was only like this with one person, Yuki, his sister who was born to be his wife. Everyone seems to think his affections for Yuki withered away and he has moved by taking Ruka Souen in his arms. But that theory is so very wrong and no one but Ruka knows that even in her arms his soul searches for his Yuki.

"That is not the point onii-sama, I just don't want you too keep things inside yourself and get hurt." Yuki decided to polite to a stop to it before he could take things further. "Plus I can clearly tell from your tone that something is greatly bothering you and you aren't telling me. What is the matter Kaname?" this time she called him by the name. The way his name rolled out of her tongue, till to this day made his heart ache.

"Has Ruka done something? Or is it Veronica?" Yuki asked.

"Neither." He answered.

"Then...?"

"Princess..." Kaname sighed out that name and Yuki realized has to be daughter trouble because at this point in life his daughter is the only thing Kaname was always deeply concerned about. The rest of the world barely mattered to him.

"What about her...?"

"She is growing up, she is indeed growing so fast. It is like I placed the small child before me and close my eyes for a bit...but as i opened them all I see is a young lady standing before me." This is one trait of her brother that Yuki really disliked, he did not speak straightforward rather made the sentence quite hard to understand.

Kaname continued, "She has gotten herself admirer, way too many to count." Now Yuki understands, her brother is actually panicking.

"Oh Kaname onii-sama, it perfectly alright for Veronica to have a fan-club. You please don't go on speaking like this or else she will think you are jealous of her stardom."

...

Kaname Kuran knocked on her door several times but received no response from it. Thus he slowly opened the door and peeked to see if she was in any sort of awkward position such as changing etc etc but to his relief no. His princess was sprawled atop her sofa sleeping with her mouth partly opened, slightly drooling. Kaname watched her for a while as she slept. She appeared so cute and adorable from where he was watching. It was like a part of him wanted to gobble her up.

He marched towards her slowly, picked her up from the uncomfortable position she was sleeping and placed her on the bed. Then he too climbed onto the bed with her, placed a deep kiss atop her head and brushed his fingers through her hair. He laid there with her for a while and as he got up and was about to leave the real scenario actually opened up before his eyes. He noticed her unusually messy room. Bouquet of flowers lying down here and there, torn wrapping papers scattered everywhere including the gifts she received like stuffed animals, chocolate boxes and various other adorable gift items.

The vampire king was genuinely surprised to see how much attention this young lady actually received. Questions like what how and why invaded his mind. But in the end one realization did indeed stick into his mind and that is keeping this girl out of danger is going to be a real hard work.

Shaking all the thoughts out of his head he was about to leave but something in his mind entered which made him turn back on his track and walk towards her bed. This time he leaned down but saw that she moved to her side, thus a portion of her hair was covering her face. With his fingers he brushed them back and this time so that time he could take a pretty good look at her. It was not so that he could see her but examine her. Curiosity to its extreme took its turn upon his head and he suddenly became determined to find out why?...Why is that, this adolescent child getting so much attention? Why are all the males so desperate to win her heart? Was this going on from before hand...or started recently, very recently?

Is she that beautiful to attract any male that would pass by? Was Takuma's grandfather actually correct with his theory?Is she beautiful above norm?

And most importantly how-come he was so oblivious to it?

If these are the case then how can he prevent it? Should he lock her up? Or destroy her so pretty face just so that he can keep her safe? But that is not right...! his heart argued but his mind reminded that it is for her safety and as long as it is for her safety nothing is wrong.

Relieve suddenly passed through him, assuring him that he will have a good rest. He placed a kiss upon her head and this time exited out of her room.

From Veronica's room he went to his and retired for the day but just as he stepped in the expensive chandelier above his head exploded. At first Kaname looked up confused but then he suddenly noticed how angry he has been feeling...but since how long that he was not sure. Also why was he angry that he was also very unsure off. For some reason his dark heart was able to detect one filthy emotion that was circulating inside of him and that my dear is known as...jealousy!
