Chapter 31

"I am not being as dramatic as you put it. I am just stating the facts." She says.

"So what do you want me to do now? How does this work? I am not backing down or changing my mind. I want to know who you are. What you really are." Zero answers.

"Fine, as you wish." She replies.

She slides herself on top of Zero's lap, pushing her hair to the side, so he can see her neck. The pulsating vein rushing with dark crimson. It brings back so many memories for him. He just watches the vein and wants what's inside it. Licking his lips with anticipation of whats to come.

"Are you sure about this?" Zero asks a little nervous to bite another person. He wasn't seventeen anymore or level E. He craved it but he didn't want to hurt anyone and he could control it better now than in the past. He didn't want to do this if she really didn't want to. There could be another way of her telling him the truth.

"Yes, You're not hurting me Zero. I am a vampire also. I will not feel pain just pleasure from your bite. I love you so it will be intense." She answers.

"Ok, if you say so."Zero responds.

Her arms wrap around him, as his face is buried in her neck, he takes a deep long breath as he opens his mouth and his fangs extract. Her scent seems familiar and warm. He lightly licks her neck preparing it for his bite. Then sinking his fangs deeply into her, holding her close to him. He sips the dark crimson liquid into his mouth. It sends goosebumps down his spine, and warm liquid gushes down his throat, making him feel incredible. It takes over his whole body.

The taste, he tasted before a long time ago. He just knows it can't be. The stench of, no it can't be. He thinks as he keeps drinking and can't stop. The images of her mind and heart flooding his brain. Bringing him back to a time, he wanted to forget. He thought He would never feel or see this ever again.

He wants to let go, wants to break free, not believing what he is seeing. He just can't the taste of her is what he always craved, desired, yearned for. He could drink her till the very last drop, he just knows he needs to stop for so many reasons. He can't even get his own thoughts together, to focus on what he is seeing in her mind. It just can't be. He must be under some spell. There has to be something wrong.

He does his best to pull away from her. Even though, he couldn't help but lick the last drop of blood that slides down her neck. He then pushes her away, trying not to look at her. He pushes her, to her own side of the best as he gets up off of the bed. Not saying a word.

"Zero talk to me. Tell me what is going through your mind?" She says.

"What I just saw can't be. What I tasted can't be. Who the fuck are you really!?" Zero shouts, finally looking up at her, his eyes do a double take.

He sees her in her true form now, and he can't believe it. Her long auburn hair flowing down her back, her big brown doe eyes looking at him like they always did. Her small skinny frame sitting in this large bed.

"It's me Zero, it always has been. I just couldn't tell you." She responds.

"What are you playing? You can't be her? I would have known. How did you hide the way you look? Your Scent? That ugly dirty scent of a pureblood! I still have my hunter skills, that's never gone away, I would have sensed it." Zero shouts.

"I had no choice, I wanted to be normal again. Not a pureblood Queen Just plain old me. I disguised my look and scent to fit in. I never thought, I would spot you that day, just when I did I couldn't pass you by. I couldn't leave you there." She answers.

"Why? It wouldn't be the first time you left me! You left me for that bastard Yuki! How could you? How could you lie to me? Do this to me? Do you know how much I Missed YOU? I yearned for you? I thought you were with him? Happy and in love going to get married! Do you know how much that hurt me?" Zero shouts.

"I didn't know what I wanted when I left Cross. I didn't want to hurt Kaname, he went through so much. Waited ten years from me. So I left with him." Yuki replies.

"But you could leave me? YOu could just walk away and never look back. He was more important! What about everything I went through? Didn't that fucking count?" Zero snaps.

"That's not true! Do you know how hard it was to walk away from you on that day? How much I missed and needed you? I couldn't stay there, I needed to leave. After I heard what they did to you, I looked for you. I wanted to find you and I couldn't. Until that day, it was meant. I was there to take you out of that hole. To bring you back to me and your old life. To make up for everything." Yuki responds.

"You think that makes everything else go away? You lied to me! You made love to me and didn't even tell me who the hell you were! All these months you stayed quiet. If it wasn't for Kaname coming over here, I would have never found out anything. And he just let you walk away? He let you help me?" Zero yells.

"I know it doesn't make everything go away but I am trying to make it better. To prove to you how much I really love you. I stayed quiet at first because, I thought if you knew it was me, you would leave. You wouldn't ever see me again and I couldn't take that. I know I was hiding myself but in a way, it was really me. What I felt was real, what I did with you was real. As myself, I might of never be able to do that. I was too shy to show you how much I really wanted you. When I was with Kaname, it wasn't working. I wasn't happy. I was downright falling apart. I asked him for space and he gave it, letting me come here and live still running some of the company with him, as I asked. I didn't want to be in the dark anymore. I wanted to be more than just the Kuran Queen. He had hoped I would go back, that we would be together. I just couldn't, I loved you." Yuki comments.

"This is too unreal to even be real. He let you walk out and be here with me? Yeah, fucking right! Does he know you screwed me? Wait, you were no virgin when we made love the first time. SHIt! God Damn it, you screwed him didn't you!?" Zero huffs and shouts.

"Does it matter? You were going to sell your body if it wasn't for me? And no he doesn't know how far we got. It's not of his business." Yuki remarks.

"You didn't answer the last one!" Zero says going to his own room and pulling out his bag, filling it with clothes.

"Zero, please. Yes, I had sex with him. I wanted to see if I really loved him or not. If it would work, just afterward all I thought about was you. How I wished I would have given that to you. What do you want from me?" Yuki snaps.

"I don't know. Nothing. I want nothing. I want my freedom and space. You are just as bad as Kaname, lying and cheating to get whatever you want. You hide your scent and look from me, Took advantage of my situation to get me in your bed. Damn, I think you're even better than Kaname. " Zero snaps.

"That's not true! How can you think that? I took you home, so you wouldn't do anything stupid. Yes, I wanted to make love to you but if I wouldn't have the first night you would have known something was up. Damn it Zero, You never change You're always so damn stubborn!" Yuki shouts.

"Well, you sure changed. I guess your the pureblood they need you to be now. "Zero answers. Gathering his stuff and walking down the stairs.

"Where the hell are you going? You don't have anywhere to go. Please, Zero stop this. This isn't what I wanted." Yuki responds.

"I don't really care what you want. I do have a place to go to. I have a job now and I have money. I can get my own place. I don't have to live off you or your Kuran money." Zero shouts.

"What do you think you're spending? Who do you think got you where you are? Why do you always have to be like this!?" Yuki comments.

" I didn't ask for you to pick me up that day. So if you didn't like how I was, you should have let me be. It was my ass to sell. And I will give you back your money!" Zero replies.

"I don't want it back, and you're so much better than that. " Yuki answers with tears.

Zero just looks back and throws his bag into the front seat of his car. Getting in and driving off. He couldn't believe it was her the whole time. The woman he loved and missed. He felt hurt and betrayed. His mind and emotions were all over the place. He needed time to think, and process all that just happened.
