Chapter 23
She gets back into the car where the driver takes her home. She knows Kaname is a lot of things but he will keep his word and do anything to make her happy. It's why she went to him. She could have gone to the association herself but if Kaname does it, it will go through faster, no one would ever say no to him. They knew better. Plus she wanted to keep a low profile.
Not wanting anyone to see her, or bring up the past. She wanted to stay invisible, it was best for everyone involved. She goes home to Zero working at his desk, she just smiles as she sees him there. It warms her heart that he is safe and where he belongs. Soon she would give him back everything he lost, and make him whole again, bit by bit. Or at least she hoped she could.
"Hi, Can I interrupt your work for a minute?" She asks.
"Of course, you are the boss. What can I help you with?" Zero answers.
"I just wanted to let you know, to keep an eye out for a call from the association. I talked to someone who could make it possible. It should be soon." She replies.
"What about working for you?" Zero says.
"Don't worry about it, you take your job back and be who you need to be. I don't want you to let anyone or thing stand in your way. You are too precious for that Zero. I need for you to see that. To believe that. The vampire side of you is just a small side of you. IT doesn't make you a monster like you believe it does. IT actually brings more to you, you have more power then the regular hunters. Don't let them tell you otherwise." She explains.
"I know you don't see vampires as beasts but they are. They are monsters who will destroy anyone they can for any reason." Zero answers.
"That is true, but it's not only Vampires that will do that. Humans are the same way, its what you do with your power that matters. You can use it for good, or for bad. That is your choice. I just know you will for good, you will do a lot of wonderful things. Its just the type of person you are." She responds.
"You have so much faith in me, you don't really even know me. You have done so much, I don't know how to thank you." Zero replies.
"Just do what is in your heart." She states, putting her hand on his chest and looking into his lavender eyes.
She moves in close and kisses him tenderly on his lips. Zero knows she cares, he just doesn't understand why. He still had so many questions and none were being answered. Who was so important they could get him back into the graces of the hunters? Why would they?
Zero enjoys the kiss, feeling closer to her the more he is around her. He feels this bond for some reason and he can't explain why. He knows she would never hurt him on purpose. He can see how she truly cares, how the passion she has for him is real. The wanting to touch him, kiss him. He sees sometimes she holds herself back, not sure how he will react. Always wanting to make sure he is ok with what is going on. It just baffles him.
