Yuuki awoke in Kaname's arms in his bed, as was common ever since she had let him drink her blood. Wryly she realized she hardly ever spent company amongst humans these days. Her life revolved around the night.

Her lover was awake as well, waiting for her. He kissed her gently, disregarding any morning breath she might have had, and then sank his fangs into her neck. She lost herself in the bliss and euphoria that she felt each time he drank her essence.

Sooner than she liked, he pulled away, slowly licking the last of her blood off his lips. Yuuki half contemplated kissing Kaname and seeing what she tasted like.

"You promised to tell me everything."

"I did. What is it you wish to know, my love."

"Rido kept calling me by the name Juri. Who is she?"

The dark haired vampire exhaled. "That is a complicated question. I would ask that you let me explain fully before you make any hasty judgments."

Yuuki's curiosity was peaked. Why did he believe she would jump to conclusions? She always let him explain himself before.

"Juri Kuran was Rido's sister. She married her other brother, Haruka, and had two children. Rido was jealous of his older brother. He believed himself in love with Juri."

Yuuki supposed she could she why Kaname thought she might react without thinking. With humans, loving and marrying siblings was incest and illegal. But Yuuki was just a human. She was a human in love with a vampire. Kaname had promised to turn her, so she wouldn't remain a human. She had been learning everything there was to know about vampire customs and society since the night she first offered the Pureblood vampire her blood. She understood and accepted that the situation wasn't the same for vampires. Pureblood families had always lived this way. Brothers and sisters were engaged from birth to continue Pureblood lines. The head of a family usually only had one son and one daughter and the rest of the family used their children as political pawns to ally families. So the Kurans having a second son was not normal.

Though if that was the reason why, Yuuki could see why Purebloods stopped at two children.

"They had a son first, Kaname Kuran. Rido murdered their son."

The brunette pulled away and opened her mouth to interrupt, and then remembered her promise to hear him out. Yuuki settled herself back in her lover's arms and waited for him to continue with his history lesson, which was more fascinating than the ones she learned attending human history classes.

"Rido sacrificed his baby nephew to awaken the ancestral vampire."

Small pale hands grabbed Kaname's larger ones. Yuuki gently rubbed circles with her thumbs on the back of his hands. "You're that ancestor."

Kaname nodded. "Ages spent sleeping had made me unable to support my body. I reverted to an infant, and Haruka and Juri adopted me, took me in as their son. To the rest of the world, that night never happened. No one knew that the real Kaname Kuran had died.

"For a time, I remembered nothing of my past. I lived as Kaname Kuran, son of Purebloods Juri and Haruka Kuran. By the time I was eight I had remembered everything, but none of it mattered. The only thing that mattered at that point was their daughter. She was three years younger than me, and I was protective of her from the moment she was born. I had seen visions of her, long ago. She was the girl that was going to help me rule.

"Her name was Yuuki Kuran."

Yuuki gasped silently. Kaname probably assumed she would be thinking with a human mindset, and would reject their relationship based on the fact that they were siblings. But they weren't. Kaname was the ancestor reawakened, and not the Kaname her parents had given birth to, and even if he was her brother she would not have cared.

Knowing that she was meant for him and him for her lifted a huge weight off her shoulders. Kaname's plans to restore the Old Ways always made her anxious. Not about the plan itself, but her role in it. How could a once human be Queen of Vampires?

But now he had revealed that she, Yuuki Cross, was really Yuuki Kuran, Pureblood Vampire and brother of Kaname Kuran. All her insecurities about their relationship went out the window. Yuuki had been promised to Kaname from the day she was born. She was going to marry him and rule over the rest of the vampires at his side.

Kaname continued with his tale. Yuuki didn't need to hear the rest of it. Yesterday, she would have jumped at the chance to learn more about her past, to discover who she was before that winter night ten years ago. Today, all that mattered was her and Kaname. As long as they were together, she didn't care about her past. But she didn't stop him. Yuuki felt he needed to say this.

"Rido returned when young Yuuki was five. He killed Haruka. I fought him, but I could not kill him. I left him severely injured, but because he was the one to awaken me, I was not allowed to kill him. Similarly, that is why I gave him my blood to heal him. That left us at an impasse, for neither of us could kill the other.

"Juri sacrificed herself to give you a new life as a human, making sure that you did not remember those few years you had lived as a vampire. I brought you here to be raised by Kaien. I always planned on returning to you and restoring you."

He was begging her to understand him. Kaname wanted her to know that he left her human to keep her safe and that he wasn't going to leave her as a human.

Yuuki kissed him gently. "I understand, nii-sama," she murmured.

He grabbed her by the shoulders and pushed her back. "I do not want you to call me nii-sama. I enjoy it when you address me as Kaname. You are the only one allowed to call me just Kaname."

"Kaname-nii-sama, then." She smiled brightly. "So where do we go from here?"

"If you would let me, I could break the seal and restore your memories."

"Please."

Kaname sank his fangs once more into her soft throat. This time he did not drink from her. Instead he bit his tongue and gave her his blood.

Yuuki gasped and writhed, trying not to yell out as fire burned the humanity from her veins. The process lasted minutes at most, and then she was back in her new brother's arms as he gave her the best kiss of her life.

"Good morning, Yuuki Kuran." Yuuki giggled.

"Shall we introduce you to the rest of the night class? They are going to be rather shocked." Her brother smirked slightly, his face lined with mischief. He was clearly so relieved to finally have his sister and the love of his life back, and after ten years of hiding in the shadows, protecting her without being near her, and denying his thirst, Yuki felt he deserved this moment of fun, and many more to follow.

She leapt out of his arms and out of bed. She moved much faster than she was anticipating, and instead of stopping at the foot of the bed, she continued moving until she had ran into Kaname's dresser.

As she picked herself up off the ground, her brother laughing behind her, Yuuki attempted to slow her movements down. It still wasn't at the rate of a human, but she was dressed in Kaname's favorite dress on her, a simple dark blue knee length dress.

He wrapped an arm around her shoulders and steered her out of his room at a human pace. "Come, we'll work on that later."

Yuuki giggled again and allowed him to lead her to the foyer of the Moon Dorms.

"Wait." She tugged his arm, pulling him to a stop. "I'll be joining the Night Class now right? Shouldn't I find a Night Class uniform? All students have to adhere to the dress code during school hours."

Kaname glanced her up and down, taking in how the dress accentuated her new body. The return to her vampiric form had matured Yuuki's body. She was now taller, coming up to his shoulders instead of his chest. She had more of an hourglass figure, with perfect sized breasts, a small waist, and larger hips. Her brown hair, which had had always loved running his fingers through, was now hanging down to her waist. His favorite feature, her large, wide, beautiful brown eyes, had remained unchanged.

"Yes. It should not be seen that a member of the Disciplinary Committee is not following school rules. Maria is the same height as you.

"Wait here for me."

Yuuki pecked him on the cheek and dashed off to Maria's room. Lucky for her, Maria enjoyed sleeping in and waited until the absolute last minute to prepare for school. The still groggy girl permitted Yuuki entrance and didn't think twice about letting said girl borrow one of her uniforms.

The brunette thanked her profusely and used Maria's bathroom to change out of her dress. Once done she examined her reflection in the full mirror that was a perk of living in the Moon Dorms. The uniform was predominately white, with a customized intricate black lining. The white jacket, worn over a black dress shirt, came with customized rose insignia buttons and cufflinks, and was finished with a red ribbon. The uniform was completed with a white miniskirt, black above the knee high socks, and a pair of dark brown boots.

It looked better on her now than it ever did when she dreamed she was part of the Night Class and imagine how it would look on her.

Not giving a now awake and curious Maria the opportunity to ask questions and spoil the surprise, Yuuki ran back to her brother. Kaname was rolling something gold between his fingers, and he quickly enclosed it in a fist when he saw her coming.

"You look beautiful, Yuuki."

Yuuki blushed and stuttered thanks, despite that he said that no matter what she was wearing. He lifted her right hand to shoulder height.

"I want to give you something. This was Juri's wedding ring. I thought you would like it." Kaname slipped the ring onto her ring finger. Yuuki brought it closer and turned her hand about to examine it.

It was a simple ring. A small diamond set on a gold band. But it fit her perfectly and once belonged to her mother. And she rather liked the simplicity of the ring. She didn't need a fancy ring with so many diamonds that it blinded anyone who looked at it. This ring was given to her by Kaname and declared that she was his and he was hers. She couldn't ask for any more than that.

Kaname took her right hand in his. Gathered in the foyer below was the entirety of the Night Class, waiting for their Dorm President and leader to take the head of the entourage for the walk to class. Right before they descended, it came to Yuuki that her adoptive father was going to need to find new Disciplinary Committee members, with Zero dead and her about to become part of the Night Class.

But she put that thought aside. Right now, she was coming out to the vampire world as Yuuki Kuran, Pureblood vampire, sister, and fiancée of their revered leader.

She only hoped that she was now as graceful as she had witnessed other vampires, because it would be humiliating if she fell. Kaname squeezed her elbow, reminding her that he was beside her and that he would always be there for her. And that included if she fell down a flight of stairs in front of a room of vampires she was going to rule.
