A Dark Past, an Untold Secret.

The night was especially chilling once the sun descended into the horizon, but there was also a bit of warmth from the ominous breeze that swept across the garden of the Kuran Mansion. Kaname stood in front of the Zen garden, admiring the texture of the sand, and the serene aura of which it gave. He closed his eyes, slowly breathing in an all-too-familiar scent, one that he tried to forget, but at the same time, admired it somewhat. As the winds blew by, sweeping the sand over the grass, Kangetsu appeared under a cherry blossom tree on the west side of the garden. He wore a different kimono than the one he had at the party; it was as white as snow, and contained lovely, blue embroidery of a dragon that wrapped around the lower and upper part. Leaning against the tree was a katana inside a white scabbard; its stance was noble, yet threatening. Kaname smiled and turned towards his fellow pureblood, his eyes a crimson red. Kangetsu returned the cold glare with his own crimson eyes, challenging Kaname.

"You called me out here, Kuran," Kangetsu said. "I suppose you intend to kill me."

"I'm surprised you noticed," Kaname replied. "Seeing as how busy you were a few moments ago."

"I could sense your bloodlust from miles away," Kangetsu spat. "Are you still angry that I threatened the pureblood princess? Then again, I can barely even call that girl a pureblood at all. She is too soft, and doesn't have the slightest clue about her own heritage. What were you thinking, Kaname?" Kangetsu laughed. "Wait, I know the answer...you obviously weren't thinking at all."

Kaname gave Kangetsu a death glare. "You're one to talk. The relationship you have with Aido is revolting. The only reason it is even allowed is because you are of Pureblood descent, just as Yuuki and myself are. Now that I think about it, there are only three Mikazukis left, including you. Maybe if your clan hadn't been so quick to kill, they would've lasted longer, but you know what they say...idiots never die."

Kangetsu kicked his sheathe into the air, snatching the sword from the scabbard with a quick pull. The moon reflected off the glimmering blade, glaring into Kaname's crimson eyes. Kangetsu masterfully twirled the sword around his body, each swing cutting through every falling cherry blossom that crossed its path. With a final downward cut, he pointed the sword in Kaname's direction.

"I'll kill you for that, Kuran!" Kangetsu screamed, his grip on the blade growing tighter. "Daiyamondo no Kosetsu!"

The katana slashed the air into two, twisting its molecules into an icy vortex that swirled towards Kaname in a violent rage. The snowy cyclone engulfed Kaname's form in hunger, but the young Kuran would not be so easy to defeat. Within the storm, Kaname's eyes flashed crimson, and a shockwave exploded out from the center of twister, dispersing it. Kaname stood silently in the garden, wiping the snow off his coat, and staring at Kangetsu mockingly.

"You'll have to do better than that," Kaname said, pointing a finger at the young Mikazuki. In the next second, a black bolt of lightning shot out from Kaname's forefinger, spiraling towards Kangetsu. The silver-haired pureblood spun the sword swiftly before deflecting the lightning into the sky, sending a thunderous roar through the night. The katana was smoking slightly after the move, and this made Kangetsu frown slightly.

"That's right," Kangetsu said. "I forgot you took the blood of Shizuka Hio."

Kaname's eyes widened, but only slightly. Kangetsu smiled before getting back in his sword stance.

"You may not have known this," Kangetsu said. "...but Hanabusa saw your treacherous act, and now that I have a blood pact with him...I also know about the night you bit into her neck, increasing your power."

Kaname was unusually calm, and only gave Kangetsu a slight smirk. "I see, but it seems that I'm not the only one with secrets."

Kangetsu's grip on the katana softened, almost to the point that it slipped from his grasp. A few drops of cold sweat dripped from his forehead as he took two shaky steps back. Kaname's eyebrow rose.

"So I see you haven't told Aido about him," Kaname stated. "How you used to be with Rido Kuran."

The sword dropped to the ground, as did Kangetsu. Tears streamed from the silver-haired pureblood's eyes, dropping into the light snow. Kaname's bloodlust had disappeared, replaced with curiosity. He had heard rumors that Rido was once very close to the Mikazuki family, and often visited their Manor. The rumor was that one the headman of the family died, Kangetsu's father, Rido and the heir, Kangetsu, were romantically involved with one another. If that was the case, then why was Kangetsu crying.

"Don't ever say that man's name again!" Kangetsu screamed, punching the snow. Kaname's face softened at Kangetsu's state.

"What was your true relationship with my uncle?" Kaname asked.

Kangetsu looked to the side. "Rido Kuran…ever since I first laid eyes on him when I was a child…I always admired him. He always did what he wanted, never listening to the council; it was like he was a free spirit. Even when he went mad…I still admired him, and then…that admiration turned to love."

Kaname was taken aback by Kangetsu's words. It was true that Rido had taken a few lovers in the past, but he didn't really believe Kangetsu was one of them until now.

Kangetsu continued. "Every time I saw him, I would run to his side and embrace him, and he always stared at me warmly with those unique eyes of his. He would always say: 'You remind me of my sweet Juuri'. Those words were always directed at me. I knew Juuri Kuran was his younger sister, your mother, but I never knew why he said that to me. Time passed, and he hadn't come to the estate in a long time. During that time, I fell in love with Aido. On my birthday, when I was sixteen in vampire years, Rido finally came to the mansion, but something was different. His soul was in pain, and his eyes cold…for the first time, I was a little afraid, but I still had feelings for him."

Kaname's eyes widened; he could somehow see where this was going. Rido fell in love with Juuri, but she rejected him for Haruka instead. The heart-break must have happened just before Rido returned to the Mikazuki estate. As for Kangetsu, he did look a bit like a boyish version of Yuuki and Juuri.

"I was so happy to see him," Kangetsu said. "I ran down stairs to greet him…but all I could see was blood and dust. Rido had killed most of the servants and guards, sucking them dry, but the only thing I truly can never forget was the sight of him and the way his fangs were plunged into my father's neck."

A few more tears dropped into the snow. Kaname stood still and quiet, waiting to hear more. The snow had stopped falling long ago, and the chilling air had calmed itself slightly.

Kangetsu continued. "When my father's body had turned to ashes, Rido made his way towards me, a wicked smirk on his face. I will never forget what happened that night…the night he claimed me…"

Flashback

Kangetsu moved back, trying to distance himself from Rido, but the older pureblood continued his advance. Before Kangetsu could turned to run, Rido grabbed his wrist and pulled him forward into his arms, embracing him. Kangetsu was too shocked to say anything; his father had just been murdered in front of him, yet he couldn't even spare any tears, and the murderer was right in front of him…embracing him. Kangetsu tried to push himself away, but Rido's embrace was too strong, not to mention Kangetsu's had begun to go numb.

"R-Rido-san," Kangetsu stammered. "Why?"

"Why?" Rido repeated the question. "…Because I want you all to myself. Kangetsu, I want you to be my Juuri."

Kangetsu shook his head. "N-No…I can't. I can't be someone I'm not. My name is Kangetsu Mikazuki!"

Rido's eyes flashed red and he threw Kangetsu into a wide sofa. The silver-haired pureblood was pinned down before he could stand, with Rido on top of him. Slowly, Rido's tongue slid up and down the sides of Kangetsu's neck, coating it in saliva. Kangetsu moaned, but stopped himself short. He knew he had to get out of here.

"I almost forgot," said Rido. "You turned sixteen today in vampire years, allow me to give you a gift of pleasure."

Rido drove his fangs into Kangetsu, biting deep. The younger boy screamed in pain, but the pain soon subsided into bliss. The young pureblood could feel his blood slowly being sucked into Rido's hot, hungry mouth. The feeling sent electric pulses through Kangetsu's body and relaxing his muscles to the point where he thought he was on ecstasy. Sometime during this process, Rido tore off Kangetsu's clothing until he was in his underwear. Kangetsu knew what was going to happen, but he knew he was powerless to stop it. Rido had taken away most of his strength from the blood feeding.

"Take off my shirt," Rido ordered, still licking some remaining blood droplets from Kangetsu's neck. With hesitant fingers, Kangetsu undid Rido's black dress shirt and slid it off his shoulders. Rido tossed the fabric to the side with impatience. Kangetsu couldn't help but admire Rido's perfect body; it was pale and creamy, with lean muscle and cut features. "I want you to remove my pants, too."

Kangetsu did as he was told, and slid the older pureblood's pants and underwear down his legs and off the floor. Rido smiled, now completely naked, and knelt to Kangetsu's lips, kissing them softly. With one hand, he lightly massaged Kangetsu's left nipple, and with the other, he slid into Kangetsu's underwear. Kangetsu couldn't help but moan as Rido's slender hand stroked his member. Kangetsu knew this was wrong; he didn't want this. Aido was what he had his eyes were set on ever since that snowy summer, but Rido could and would kill him if he tried to run. He promised himself the Aido would be his first; it brought tears to his eyes just thinking about the blonde and how heart-broken he would be if he found out about this.

Rido ignored the tears gathering in Kangetsu's eyes and slid his tongue into soft mouth, exploring the caverns. Their tongue's played with each other passionately, as if they were dancing. Kangetsu sucked on Rido's tongue accidently, deepening the kiss. Rido moved from his lips to his neck, nibbling on the soft meat and forcing another moan from Kangetsu.

Rido smiled. "You taste so good, Kangetsu. Yes…and you smell just like Juuri."

"R-Rido-san!" Kangetsu gasped, arching his back from the sensation of the hand-job he was getting. "Please…I can't do this…ah!"

Rido smiled before nibbling on Kangetsu's ear. "I know you've been in love with me for a while, Kangetsu. I know you want this, and you'll be doing me a favor as well. Just close your eyes and be my Juuri…I promise you'll love it."

Rido's tongue traced down to his chest, kissing it. He removed his hand from Kangetsu's member and brought to his mouth licking the pre-cum and sweat off his fingers. He was still playing with the silver-haired boy's nipples, watching as they grew hard.

"Your nipples are hard," Rido stated with a smile. "Does that mean you aroused?"

Rido lowered his head and started to lick and suck on the plush nubs, earning even more moans from the boy beneath him. Kangetsu could feel his heart racing; he couldn't hold back for longer. Rido was so good, it was like he knew every part of his body. By the time he realized it, Rido was already licking his naval area, dipping his tongue in and out of his belly button. He covered his naval with his mouth, sucking softly at it. Just when Kangetsu was getting used to the wonderful foreplay, Rido sat up and removed himself from the sofa. Kangetsu whimpered slightly, but quickly covered his mouth in embarrassment, earning a chuckle from Rido.

Rido stood in front of the sofa, nude. Kangetsu blushed deeply when he noticed Rido's throbbing manhood twitching with arousal and dripping pre-cum. No matter how hard Kangetsu tried to avoid looking at it, his eyes just came right back. Rido smiled.

"Suck it," he commanded.

Kangetsu's blush became twice as red. "I'm not experienced with this type of thing…I wouldn't know what to do…"

Rido grabbed Kangetsu by the hand and gently pulled him forward so that Kangetsu was standing. Rido had a few inches on him, but that didn't mean he was short. Kangetsu stood in front of Rido, awaiting his instructions.

"Get on your knees and pretend like it's your favorite treat," Rido said. Kangetsu could tell the older pureblood was getting a little impatient, so he did as he was told. Once he was on his knees, he realized he was face to face with Rido's member. He gently grabbed it around the shaft, stroking it. Rido closed his eyes, preparing himself for what was about to happen. Kangetsu flicked out his tongue, licking the head hungrily; his stroke becoming faster. After a few more strokes, Kangetsu covered the head and half the shaft with his mouth, sucking hard.

Rido moaned, grabbing the back of the younger's head and pulling his silver hair, forcing Kangetsu to go deeper. Hearing Rido moan made Kangetsu horny; he grabbed Rido's ass for support and started to bob his head faster. His tongue swirled around the Rido's manhood sloppily, making it wet with saliva. Rido's eyes were closed at this point, his mind somewhere else. Kangetsu backed away slightly and re-gripped the shaft, running kisses all over the head of Rido's dick.

"Ahhh…you're pretty good," Rido panted. "Even though it's your first time. Tell me…do you like the taste of me?"

Kangetsu nodded, now licking the underside of Rido's cock. As soon as Kangetsu started to suck on his balls, Rido pushed him off. Kangetsu winced as he hit the floor with a thud, his elbow grinding against the wood. Rido pinned him down hastily, ripping off his underwear. Kangetsu was starting to get a bit scared, but calmed down once Rido started to kiss him.

"I want to fuck you right now," Rido said, with no hesitation whatsoever. Kangetsu had never heard a pureblood talk like that before. "Get on your hands and knees so I can do it from the back. If you try any fancy ice tricks, I'll rip out your heart."

Kangetsu was hesitant at first, but did so anyway. The position was strange to him, since he felt like an animal waiting to be screwed. Rido was behind him, pressing his cock against Kangetsu's entrance. Rido's member was still wet from Kangetsu's blow-job, so he knew he wouldn't have too much trouble getting in.

Without even waiting for Kangetsu to give a response, Rido rammed inside of the caramel skinned beauty. Kangetsu screamed in pain, tears streaming down his cheeks. The worst part was that Rido didn't give him time to adjust to the feeling. The older pureblood slid himself in and out of Kangetsu eyes closed in ecstasy. He would pull out slowly before jamming his cock into the hot, wet entrance. Kangetsu started to get used to the feeling of his first time, but Rido was very thick and long.

"Tell me you do it harder," Rido said. "I want to hear you scream it."

"Please…" Kangetsu said, drool escaping his mouth. "Please…"

"Please what?" Rido asked with a smile, still ramming into him.

"Fuck me harder!" Kangetsu yelled, unable to control his emotion.

Rido did as he was told and picked up the pace. He hunched himself more over Kangetsu, allowing his hips to move at a faster rate. At the point, Kangetsu face was in the carpet and his ass up in the air. With every thrust, a quick gasp escaped from between his lips.

After what seemed like thirty more minutes of extreme pleasure and pain, Rido's thrusts become slower, but more powerful.

"I'm about to cum!" Kangetsu screamed in bliss. Spraying the carpet with his load.

Rido still had a few more thrusts left. "Ahhh…you're so tight and wet down here. I could pound this all night."

With a grunt, Rido spilled his hot, white seed into Kangetsu. The sliver-haired teen could feel Rido's cum pouring inside him; it almost made him cum again. The older pureblood's body slumped over on top of Kangetsu's, exhausted. Once he pulled out, Rido started to kiss Kangetsu's back.

"Thanks for being my Juuri," Rido smiled. "I think I'll be keeping you for awhile.

End of Flashback

"Rido kept me as his personal pet for six months," Kangetsu hissed. "He used me like a toy, and humiliated me everyday in different ways. Forcing me to crawl around naked on my hands and knees like a dog in my own home, chaining me whenevr he saw fit, beating me and raping me as if I were a hungry whore...and making me sleep in my father's ashes!"

Kaname remained silent, but this only made Kangetsu angrier.

"Two years passed," Kangetsu continued. "I was finally starting to recover, but then you go and kill my brother! He wasn't like the other members of the council! He wanted to make things better...but you killed him."

"I'm sorry," Kaname said.

"That's not good enough!" Kangetsu sobbed. "I respected the Kuran Clan, but all they've done is bring me misery."

Kaname didn't know what to say; it seemed like Kangetsu's life had been tortured by the Kurans. Unfortunately, Kaname wasn't the only one who heard the story. Standing between Kaname and Kangetsu was an Aido shaking with anger. However, Aido's hatred wasn't directed towards Kaname…it was towards Kangetsu.

"Hanabusa," Kangetsu gasped. "Let me explain-"

"I don't want to hear it," Aido said with clenched teeth. "How could you keep something like that from me, Kangetsu?"

"I wasn't trying to keep it from you," Kangetsu pleaded. "I just…"

"What!?" Aido exclaimed.

Kangetsu bowed his head in defeat. "I…I don't know."

Aido balled his fist and punched a tree, causing the snow on the branches to fall. He looked back at Kangetsu before walking back towards the Kuran mansion.

"Where are you going, Hanabusa?" Kangetsu shouted.

Aido turned around. "Listen Kangetsu…I think we need to spend some time apart. I can't be around you right now…I need some time to think."

Kaname lowered his head as Aido made his way back to the mansion…leaving a very confused Kangetsu in the snow. Kaname carefully walked over the sobbing young man and helped him up. Surprisingly, Kangetsu did not deny Kaname's gesture. Instead, he buried his head in the other pureblood's chest, his tears dampening Kaname's shirt.

"This is all my fault," Kangetsu cried. "If you want to kill me Kaname, then go ahead...I don't care anymore."

"We should get you inside," Kaname said.

Sorry about the delay guys, just make sure you give me some reviews so they can motivate me! ^_^
