Chapter 3 – Unforgivable

Let's do something unforgiveable Zero thought back to the days he and Yuki snuck around so he could drink her blood in secret. And now they were sneaking around again doing something equally unforgivable, if not worse. Why does it always end up like this between us? They were truly star-crossed lovers, destined to meet up only in secret. Everything told them to not be together, but here they were, unable to stay away from one another. He walked the empty hallways at Cross Academy. It was dusk, and all the night class students were in class now. He then caught her scent. She turned the corner and was now in front of him. "Wanna play hooky?" Yuki smiled deviously, hands behind her back.

"You're trouble," he smirks.

Yuki led Zero to the staff lounge room that the day class instructors used. It remained empty at night since there were less teachers on staff – they were always in back-to-back lectures. And there, they would do the unforgivable act for the third time.

Zero removes his coat and places it on the back of a chair. Yuki stares at him, admiring his shoulders as he takes off his coat. His dress shirt is nice and fitted around his arm muscles. Back when they were teenagers, the uniform was slightly baggy on his lanky body. She wondered how much he changed during their year apart and when he got so strong. "Why are you looking at me like that?" Zero interrupts her thoughts.

Yuki shakes her head, "Like what?"

"Like you don't recognize me," Zero states.

"Because I don't," Yuki admits. "I can't recall how I used to look at Zero. Because right now, the Zero in front of me, I am extremely attracted to, and I want him to do things to me, things I shouldn't dare wish for."

Yuki slowly starts to approach Zero, her breath quickening. "This is how I've felt about you for a long time Yuki," Zero says.

He cups her face, and they start kissing. Zero removes Yuki uniform layer by layer. He picks her up and places her on the table. He kisses her neck, her collar bone, between her breasts, and her stomach. Now, only her panties stood between him and her bare body. Zero carefully removes the cloth, and Yuki assists him by moving her hips up. He then starts kissing her inner thigh and licking her special area. He feels drunken by the taste and starts sucking the sensitive nub on top. Yuki moans, "Zero…" while gripping his hair and slightly closing her thighs.

Zero is over the moon hearing Yuki say his name, and even more turned on. It reassures him that she's in the moment with him, and not thinking about Kaname. He lifts his head and starts removing the rest of his clothing. He puts on a condom and is eager to become one with Yuki. They use the entire room, from the lunch table to the wall and now the couches. Yuki is kneeling on the couch and Zero is standing, entering her from behind. His hands embrace her breasts, and he kisses her neck from behind. "Are you thirsty?" she asks. He assumes she asked because of his close proximity to her neck.

"Not here, the scent of blood, especially yours, will raise too many alarms," he responds.

"I'll come over this weekend then," she suggests.

He's surprised that Yuki is being so forward, but also, at this point, what could surprise him anymore? He was balls deep in his childhood best friend who was betrothed to another man, nothing phased him anymore. "Okay," he agrees.

The weekend arrives, and he does drink her blood… while having sex. It was different from anything he ever experienced. The euphoria from sex and the pure ecstasy of drinking Yuki's blood together at the same time drove him insane. He couldn't help but be greedy. He drank from her neck, a little from her breast and also her inner thigh. He couldn't get enough. Yuki seemed to be enjoying it as well, as her pants and moans increased in volume. The two were addicted to each other and couldn't keep their hands off each other. Every opportunity they got, they would sneak away and do the unforgivable deed. Despite their age, they were basically two teenagers who discovered sex for the first time, so who could blame them?

The two met in secret at Cross Academy constantly and Yuki often came over to Zero's apartment. They even had sex in their old home at Cross Academy to change the scenery to something much naughtier. At the rate they were meeting, they were bound to get caught. They were pushing the limits, and Zero knew if he wasn't careful, some shit was going to go down.

Kaname also made a reappearance after his alleged pureblood massacre. This caused the two to make sure they were on their best behaviour. They kept their distance and only met again when Kaname disappeared to attend meetings with the council. Outside of that, Yuki was back at the Kuran Manor playing house with Kaname, ensuring that he didn't suspect anything. It's now been a couple weeks since Yuki and Zero had some time alone together. The only interaction they had was briefly greeting each other in the hallways at Cross Academy. One day, as Zero was patrolling the hallways, he was abruptly pulled into a room and the door shut quickly after. It was Yuki and they were in the nurse's office again. "Kaname is hosting a ball this weekend. I looked at the guest list. You're on there, as part of the security team again… like that one time. You and Kaito," Yuki informs.

She must be referring to the first time we reunited after she reawakened as a pureblood Zero figured.These two goofs then plan an elaborate scheme to meet in a certain powder room no one would notice due to it being in a blind spot. They strategically plan the exact time of meetup, and how Zero would go there five minutes earlier than Yuki. It was a good plan, but they were the two most stupid people on the planet. Stupid in love Zero thought.

On the way home, Zero passes by a bar to meet Kaito since they haven't spoken in a while because Zero was always positioned at Cross Academy for his new assignment. They caught up on each other's lives and had a couple of drinks. Zero was never a drinker, but he picked it up as he got closer to Kaito since it was something he loved to do. Zero just enjoyed his friend's company, although he would never admit that. Kaito was one of his only companions, one that was there for him in his darkest times. He appreciated him a lot and was able to open up to him about most things. "So how are things with Yuki? I know you weren't too happy with the assignment at first," he pries.

Zero puts his palms up to his face and takes a big breath. He must have looked hella stressed because Kaito looked concerned. Zero wanted to say everything is fine and under control, but he had been keeping a huge secret between himself and of course, Yuki. The fear of getting caught was eating at him. He felt alert everyday but still yearned for her endlessly. He always felt confused and conflicted with himself and his actions. He couldn't keep it all bottled up anymore. He then blurts out, "I messed up. I messed up really bad. I don't know what to do."

"What's wrong man? How can I help?" Kaito replies.

There's a long silence between the two. Zero is tracing circles with his finger on the bar counter, his eyebrows furrowed. He finally gives in again and says, "We slept together. More than once. I don't know how it got this far. I'm a dead man."

Kaito is shook. His best friend who was always so cold and never expressed a desire for love was fucking the princess of purebloods? He needed way more clarification. They spend the rest of the night until dawn at the bar as Zero explains the whole story. "Well you haven't gotten caught yet. I say just stop. If you're serious about pursuing a relationship with her, you both need to agree on ending the engagement, but I don't know if that's even a possibility," Kaito advises.

"She'd never do it. She's committed to him and their betrothal," Zero responds.

"Well then you gotta lay low man. This is a tricky situation," Kaito says concerned.

"Right. Yeah." Zero drinks the last of his glass and leaves the bar.

The night of the ball arrives. Yuki and Zero act as if they barely know each other. They may have been trying too hard to sell that point. But just as agreed, after all the guests were liquored up and dancing a bit, Zero slid away from his patrol position to the secret powder room. Yuki excuses herself to the bathroom. She picks up a drink on her way to the room. Exactly five minutes after the door opens and she slips in quickly, closing the door lightly behind her. Here they were, finally alone together after weeks. And like muscle memory, they can't keep their hands off each other. They start kissing and moaning in each other's mouths. They don't have much time so Zero lifts Yuki up onto the vanity and pushes the skirt of her dress up. He loosens his belt and unzips his pants, taking out his you-know-what. Shortly after, he's inside and makes an effort to not thrust too hard to keep the noise down. Yuki tries not to moan too loud, but she is struggling. He turns her around and starts hitting it from the back. Yuki sees herself in the mirror, doing such an unforgivable act. She stares at Zero's hard length, moving in and out of her. The sight should make her stomach churn, but she likes it. She feels a weird sense of satisfaction seeing herself in the mirror. She feels sexy for the first time, and it's empowering. She's so tired of being referred to as weak. She's tired of being Kaname's pureblood princess. She's tired of everyone treating her like a baby. She was a grown woman doing what she wanted in the moment, regardless of anyone else's opinion. This feeling takes over and brings her to orgasm. Zero puts his hand over Yuki's mouth as she moans loudly. He then hurries it up as well and starts thrusting faster. Soon after, he also cums. They kiss once again at the end. It's obvious in their eyes that they want to spend more time with each other, but they realize the reality. They both quickly fix their attire and hair. Yuki douses herself in a bunch of perfume and leaves the room with her drink. She slowly blends into the crowd and watches people dance, as if she was there the whole time. Zero is about to leave the dressing room now, around five minutes after Yuki, but then the door opens, and someone comes in. Zero's heart drops but is quickly relieved. It's Kaito. "What are you doing in here man? I was looking for you everywhere," he says while scanning the room.

His right eyebrow raises. "I smell something else… someone else," and his eyes widen as he puts two and two together.

Kaito now looks angry and speaks through his teeth, "You are walking on thin ice man. Are you crazy? Meeting up here? You're out of your fucking mind. You clearly have a death wish."

"Strange. I've never felt more alive," Zero says as he exits the room.

Kaito shakes his head. As much as he didn't support his friend's decision, he helped him get out of the ball unnoticed as most guests were beginning to leave. They stood outside monitoring each guest that left, ensuring there was nothing unusual. Suddenly, to Zero's surprise a small brunette approaches him. She was similar in height to Yuki, but her features were much different. She had large breasts and curves much more prominent than the average female. Her hair was long and curly, and she wore a dress that defined all her features along with a fur boa. To Zero's knowledge, she came with a wealthy, older aristocrat. It didn't appear as they were a couple but more as if she was arm candy. "I've heard about you," she began "The infamous vampire Hunter, Zero Kiryu." She smiles and stares deep into his eyes.

Zero doesn't respond.

"I like bad boys, wanna get into some trouble?" She asks as she twirls her fur boa around the back of Zero's neck, reeling him in closer to her. At the same moment, she felt a cold metal barrel touch the bottom of her chin. Zero had pulled out his gun in an instant to threaten her.

"Oh you're fast, that turns me on," she laughs, almost maniacally.

Zero angerly stares back at her, speechless. The man she came with yells, "Hey Elle! You came here with me." He demanded her presence back by his side.

"You know I can't help it sometimes, he's just so damn fine," she says, keeping eye contact with Zero.

She then removes the fur boa and places it back on her shoulders. She walks away. Everyone around is whispering and staring, including Yuki. Zero says to Kaito, "Let's get out of here."
