''What most men desire is a virgin who is a whore.'' ~ Edward Dahlberg

The next day when Zero went downstairs, the pureblood was already at the dining table waiting for him. He had somehow managed to sleep without the pureblood by his side although some part of him felt like an empty shell as he lay there. The past few days that he'd slept in Kaname's bed felt so good, so warm, so at home that he longed to do it again. Wait. What the hell am I thinking? I want to sleep with him again? When did I start having such perverted thoughts? But sleeping with him doesn't mean anything more but sleeping. Who am I kidding? I want to do so much more than sleeping. I want...

''Ohayo!'' Kaname stood up to greet him. ''Did you sleep well?'' he gave Zero a peck on the cheek and pulled out a hair for him.

''Yes, thanks and you?'' Zero asked and took a sit next to the pureblood.

Kaname poured himself a glass of orange juice and then looked at Zero. ''Not so well, I missed you by my side.'' Their eyes met and held. He hated to admit it but he had tossed and turned the whole night, his hand reaching out for the hunter who wasn't there beside him. He had felt so helpless that it was hard to sleep. He'd craved for Zero until wee hours of the morning when he was finally able to get some sleep.

Zero held his breath. The way Kaname was looking at him, did things to him, made him feel things. He was the first to break eye contact. He also poured himself a glass of orange juice and took a sip, nervously. What's happening to me? Just a glance from him and my body feels like its burning up. ''Are you going to work today?'' he changed the subject.

''No, I'm free today so we can spend the day together.'' Kaname said smiling. ''Is there anything you want to do? Somewhere you want to go?'' he asked.

Zero paused to think about it. ''Not in particular.'' There was one or two things he wanted to do but he didn't want to sound selfish by telling the pureblood he wanted. He would let Kaname decide what they would do today.

''You do have something you want to do, don't you?'' Kaname asked.

''Well, I've always wanted to jump on a trampoline. It may sound stupid and childish but my grandmother promised to get me one for my birthday but she died before she could fulfill that promise.'' Zero said with a sad look.

''Really?'' Kaname asked. This was the first time Zero had mentioned his grandmother. It must be a sensitive subject, hopefully he can talk to me about it. ''What else would you like to do today? Tell me anything no matter how childish it is we'll do it, okay?''

''I want to go to the sauna, visit the tallest building around, drink hot chocolate while standing outside and....'' he hesitated and looked at the pureblood who raised an eyebrow. ''A-and have a pillow fight in bed.''

''Wow!'' Kaname said.

''You don't have to if you don't want to.'' Zero said quickly.

''No problem for me, sounds like fun, let's do it after breakfast.''

''Okay.'' Zero said glad that Kaname didn't refuse. ''Maybe you think I'm crazy to want to do all those foolish things.''

''I didn't think anything, Zero, don't put words in my mouth.'' Kaname said and bit his toasted bread.

''I grew up as an only child, without knowing that I had a twin brother. I wonder how it would have been if we were given the chance to be together. I wonder if we would have had pillow fights or played hide-n-seek.''

''I'm sure you would have done even more. That's what siblings do when as they grow up. I don't know how it feels to be an only child because I have a sister. It was great playing with her, teasing her. She always followed me around, looked up to me. It's was a nice feeling. It still is because she still talks to me about her private life. We're very close but we still argue or disagree about stuff.'' Kaname said. He was trying to encourage the hunter to open up.

''Really? Even siblings have quarrels, huh?''

''Yeah. We also used to fight a lot when we were kids. My parents would then send me away to my room, saying that I'm the one who started it. I would then sulk because they were siding with Yuki because she was the youngest of us. It just wasn't fair.''

Zero laughed. ''I can just imagine you sulking.'' he ate his breakfast still laughing.

''It's not funny.''

''It is. When I first met my parents and they told me that I have a twin brother, I was so happy. I couldn't wait to meet him, to catch up on things. My heart was overflowing with joy. But when I met Ichiru for the first time...he looked at me with such hatred in his eyes that the excitement I had in my heart faded quickly away. I thought that everything would be okay once we were reunited but....'' Zero stopped. It was so difficult to go on, to explain.

''You don't have to tell me if it's difficult. We can talk another time, if you want to, okay?'' Kaname said. He didn't want Zero to break down while they were having breakfast no matter how much he wanted to know about the hunter's past.

''No, it's okay. I want to tell you. When I lived with my grand-mother, I knew that she wasn't my mother even though she treated me like his son. She was the closest thing I ever to a mother that I ever had. Whenever we went be it school or to the park, people would always make comments of what a cute grand-child she had. I knew it in my heart that she wasn't my mother but I hated it when everyone pointed out the obvious. I wanted her to be my mother. At school, kids laughed at me saying I had no parents, no mother. I understand that they were just kids and they didn't know what they were saying but it still hurt like hell. Listening to them was really painful so I always avoided playing with the other kids. I avoided making friends because they would just find out about my personal life and tease me or abandon me. I never made friends. I was scared.''

Kaname put his hand on top of the hunter's and squeezed it gently. ''I'm sorry, Zero. I didn't know.''

''It's okay.'' Zero said then told Kaname how he was treated at his parents. Tears flowed from his eyes and he didn't stop them. Kaname gave him some tissues and just sat there listening. He want to take Zero in his arms but he knew it wasn't the time. He had to let the hunter speak, let out whatever hurt, pain that he kept in his heart for so long. It was the only way. ''It seemed like everywhere I went I got the same treatment until I met you. I'm truly cursed but I want to be happy like I am now.''

''Are you happy here?'' Kaname asked. He knew that he hadn't given Zero the best of treatments, threatening him to get his way.

Zero looked into Kaname's eyes though his vision was a blur because of his tears. ''Yes I am.'' he said.

Kaname let out a breath that he'd been holding. ''I'm glad to hear you say that. I'm not happy about the way you family treated you. I mean, what kind of mother does that to his own child? But you're safe now. Remember, that which doesn't kill you makes you stronger, Zero. We're still master of our fates. We're still captains of our souls. We'll get rid of your curse, we'll fight fate if we have to. So please don't make excuses for those kids that made fun of you. Nobody needs to be told such cruel words. Nobody. You've made it this far in my life. Let me show you a different life. I cannot be your mother or father or even your brother but I can be more. I can be your partner.''

''My partner?'' Zero asked.

''When we vampires decide to make a blood bond, we do it with the person we want to spend the rest of our lives with. It's like marriage in human terms. Once we find our true mates, we mate for life.'' Kaname stood up and knelt down before Zero and asked, ''I don't regret making the decision to make a bond with you. I really want to do it. I want you by my side, to treat you the way you deserve. We only mate once so allow me to ask you this, will you be my mate?''

Zero gasped. What's this? Isn't this like a marriage proposal? But do I love him enough to make such a commitment? Does he love me? Isn't marriage only for people who love each other? Maybe he's just being polite because he knows I can't refuse. Because he knows that it's inevitable that we make the bond. But it is inevitable. Even if he hadn't asked me to be his mate I will become his mate when we do bond. He's so kind, making it all sound romantic. Why am I so happy? Why is my heart pounding so fast? ''I will be your mate.'' he answered. The pureblood had promised to be faithful to him once they bonded so there was nothing to worry about, or was there?

Kaname quickly hugged him. ''I'm so happy right now and the luckiest man in the world.'' he said.

''Why?'' Zero asked.

''Because I get to be your mate.'' Kaname replied. He felt relieved that the hunter hadn't refused him. That was a good sign that they were getting along.

''Is that all?''

Kaname smirked. ''And also because I'll be your first.''

''Damn you!'' Zero spat. Why did the pureblood have to tease him like that? ''I'm through with breakfast, can we go now?''

''Of course. But first, I would like to kiss you.'' he didn't wait for an answer. He took Zero's lips and kissed him roughly at first. He needed to feel more of the hunter, more of those kissable lips. More... ''We'll go jump on a trampoline first then go to the sauna. Give me a moment, I'll be right back.'' Kaname said and went upstairs.

Zero followed him and went to his room. As he brushed his teeth, he thought about how he had opened up to the pureblood and told him about his past. He hadn't planned to say so much but once he'd started talking, he couldn't just stop. He was even surprised that Kaname had comforted him and had wanted him to stop if it was too much to talk about. After opening up like that he'd felt as if a heavy load had been lifted off, of him. I'm really glad that I talked to him. He really cares for me, I'll gladly become his mate.

He put on warm winter shoes and jacket that Kaname had bought for him, packed the necessary clothing for the activities planned then went downstairs. The pureblood was waiting for him. He's absolutely breathtaking and looking sexy as always. My body just starts to burn with desire just from the sight of him. My heart throbs with feeling for him. Feelings I'll have to live with for the rest of my life. He'd never looked at a man closely as he had Kaname. Never felt so conscious of a man before. Kaname held out his hand and Zero took it. They walked out of the mansion together to the car. Kaname opened the door for him.

Zero watched as the pureblood hurried around the front of his car and jumped in the driver's seat next to him. Kaname turned his head and gave Zero a quick glance before shoving the key in the ignition and pulling out of the parking lot. Kami. All this sexual tension and we haven't even... Kaname reached over and place his hand on Zero's thigh, higher than what would have been normally acceptable behavior.

''I can't wait for tonight, Zero.'' he said.

Oh yes, I'll be getting laid tonight. Zero decided to do something bold. He reached out and placed his hand directly over Kaname's crotch then looked away.

Kaname went like, ''Fuuuuck!'' but Zero only smiled timidly. He began to rub his hands until he got the effect he wanted. He heard the pureblood groan beside him and felt as he pressed his foot a little harder on the gas pedal.

Zero giggled and smirked at him. ''In a hurry are we?'' He ran his hand up and down over Kaname's length adding a little more pressure.

''Oh fuck, Zero.'' Kaname hissed. ''Stop, you're driving me crazy.''

''Good. Consider this is a punishment for leaving me pending last night.''

''I'm sorry, if I hadn't stopped myself, I don't know what would have happened.'' Kaname bucked his hips upward. ''Stop, I can't concentrate on the road.'' he said. ''I'll stop this car right now and fuck you on the roadside.'' he threatened. Zero removed his hand and looked out of the window as if nothing had happened. ''You'll pay for that tonight.''

''What will you do?'' Zero asked.

''I'll fuck you hard and good. I won't let you go until you scream and beg me to stop.''

Holy shit! ''Bring it on.'' Zero said but the truth was he was a little afraid of what was to come. The pureblood's words kept ringing in his head as the car halted swiftly in front of a huge building. Kaname opened his door and rushed to Zero's side, holding the door open for him and offering his hand. Why is he acting all lovey-dovey? They entered the building and went straight to the elevator. The elevator door dinged open in front of them and Kaname led the way in dragging Zero behind him. As soon as the doors closed, Zero was pushed up against the elevator wall, Kaname pressed into his front.

''Zero...you have no idea what you're doing to me. Do you want me to take you right here, right now?'' Kaname asked and rubbed his cock against Zero's. ''Do you feel that?''

Zero gulped and shook his head.

''That's what you do to me. Are you surprised that I still have a hard-on? Do you have any idea how much I loved the way you touched me in the car? Do you know how much I'm attracted to you? How much I enjoy your company? After we leave my parents house, I'll take you home and we'll have the best fucking night of our lives.'' Kaname took Zero's lips in a hot searing kiss that left them both breathless. He then released the hunter and stepped back.

Zero just stood there. Desire coursed through his body. He wanted Kaname so much that it hurt. If he had been dreading the night, now he wanted it to come. He wanted to be one with Kaname. To be his mate.

Kaname looked at the hunter and saw the passion burning there. How long exactly had they fooled around when they both wanted the same outcome? How much time had they wasted being too shy to do anything? We're going to become one, Zero. Tonight is our night.

No more playing coy.

No more games.

No more fucking around.

They went into the sports club and jumped on the trampoline then went to the sauna. Since it was New Years Eve, there were very few people around. In the sauna they spread their towels and laid down for a few minutes before sitting down. Kaname wished that they were alone so he could have his way with Zero. The two men who were there before them left, so Kaname moved in.

Before Zero could ponder on what Kaname wanted, he felt the pureblood's fingers brush against his face, his hand going to the back of his head and thumb rubbing on his cheek. Kaname's eyes met Zero's in a gaze of lust and want and need. They darted down to his lips and back up to his eyes, silently asking a question. How he longed to taste Zero again.

''Yes. Oh gods yes.'' Zero said and closed his eyes in anticipation and waited for what seemed like forever, until he felt soft, warm lips come in contact with his own. As soon as his lips came in contact with the hunter's, Kaname groaned. Zero's lips felt like rose petals. Warm and smooth on his own. He tasted like strawberries and mint an summer rain.

Zero's lips moved with Kaname's, hesitant at first but gradually picking up in their urgent nature. The pureblood took his bottom lip and kissed it gently while running his smooth, cool tongue across the surface.

''Ahn....''Zero moaned.

He closed his eyes. It wasn't long that they kissed in the elevator but he wanted more of those lips. He tentatively slipped his tongue to intertwine with the purebloods', pulsing to the rhythm he set. All too soon, they heard footsteps and Kaname reluctantly released him, giving him one chaste kiss before grabbing his hand and leading him to the showers. Thank God, they were cubicle showers otherwise they wouldn't be able to continue. ''I'm not going anywhere, Kaname.'' Zero chucked. Like he would just walk away after that kiss.

Kaname smirked. ''Oh, I know that. Now that I've got you here, I don't plan on letting you go.'' He hurriedly closed the door then pushed Zero against it immediately. His hands were on the hunter's hips, rubbing in smooth circles, while his arms crawled up his waist of his boxers, over his chiseled abs and chest and around his neck, wrapping his fingers in Zero's hair.

So soft.

Zero moaned. Kaname's lips were insistent on his, frenzied with hunger. This was a passion filled kiss, no hesitancy like in the elevator. It was a kiss that promised things to come. Kaname's hands roamed from his hips upward, caressing the bare skin of his back, sending an involuntary shiver through his body. They followed their path down again, settling on the curve of his butt. The pureblood pressed him closer to his obvious erection and ground him to it.

''Ahh....'' Zero moaned into Kaname's mouth and tightened his grip on the pureblood. He knew that Kaname wasn't one to waste time. If he found an opportunity to eat him, he would do it without hesitation. Even if it was here, in the showers. He wanted his first time to be somewhere else and not here, so he broke the kiss. Kaname groaned at the loss and tried to kiss him again. ''Let's be patient and wait for tonight.''

Kaname ran his hand over his hair. ''Okay. I'll go shower in the next cubicle.'' he opened the door and left.

Zero let the water pour over his body. He was still breathing hard from the kiss they'd shared. I hope he isn't mad at me and understands why I had to stop. Only a few more hours then we'll join.'' When they finished showering, they visited the tallest building around and then to a restaurant to have lunch. After lunch they went for a long walk while sipping slowly hot chocolate.
