Chapter 46
Zero goes back to the study after a while of looking around. Finding Kaname sitting in his high back burgundy plush chair, sipping his wine in front of a fire. He can see his mind is everywhere.
"Well, you sure made yourself at home, while I was doing all the work," Zero says.
"There was no point, you didn't find anything did you?" Kaname asks.
"No, nothing. She made sure there was no trail. I can sence, she was here, but if you walk outside in any direction the scent is gone. It's only in this house. What did the letter say?" Zero replies.
"Here read it for yourself, that way you know how she feels." Kaname snaps handing Zero the letter.
Zero stands there and reads it, line by line. Her mentioning him, tears at his heart seeing how hurt she is about him. How she feels he doesn't want anything to do with her. That she feels the need to let go of him, when he is dying inside for her, just makes him know what a fool he has been. He also sees she doesn't want to be with Kaname romanticly. The way she says she loves him but not the way he wants or needs confirms it. He now knows why Kaname is sitting there looking defeated.
" I see she wants the child, at least I didn't ruin that." Zero says.
"She seemed to want it when she was talking to me also. She just never stuck around for me to explain what it is to be carrying your child. What it will do to her." Kaname howls.
"We know, I am a hunter if anyone finds out, they won't be happy," Zero says.
"You fool, that isn't the only thing. Yes, you are a Hunter, and she is a Vampire. She is carrying a Hunter child. The bloodlines are mixing. To give birth to your child will be very dangerous! This whole damn pregnancy is dangerous for her! The only thing on her side is that she is a pureblood, I just hope that is enough." Kaname replies.
"Wait what? What do you mean by dangerous?" Zero asks.
"Your bloodlines will mix and cross over into the child. Your blood, Hunter blood, your DNA is inside of her. Hunters and Vampires were never meant to mate. The child can kill her. It's against all logic." Kaname admits.
"What the fuck? And you tell me now? You never told her at all? What the fuck is wrong with you pruebloods? Can't you ever just say the fucking truth! Didn't you think we needed to know this?" Zero Shouts.
"NO, I didn't think she would be that stupid to mate with you. To be honest, I never thought she would see you agian. YOu were on the poorest side of town, what the hell would she the queen be doing over there? When I talked to her last, I didn't want to scare her, she was already six months pregnant and everything seemed ok. I figured I would take her home to the mansion and watch over her. She just didn't let me." Kaname confesses.
"Damn it, we need to find her and fast. This is why you were so quiet on the way here, why you been so hopeless. I see it in your eyes. I knew something was up." Zero comments.
"We can lose her for good Zero. The child can take her away from both of us. This hasn't been done in thousands of years and the last to do so, died while giving birth. The only difference was the vampire wasn't a pureblood. Other Hunters and Vampire took note of what happened and even if they cared for each other, they made sure never to have children. Then here comes you two. And I don't blame you, you had no idea of any of it." Kaname explains.
"I don't want her dead, I rather not have the child. We don't need a child. I should have been more careful. Damn it!" Zero shouts.
"It doesn't matter what you want Zero, she does. She may even know about what is to come and its why she left. She knew I would try to get her to not have the child. I suggested to her , that she gave it away. Just as a test, and she said never, so to till it would be something she would ever do." Kaname remarks.
"She said she would protect it. That is what she means. Where could she go? What other place does she know about that you own? Or someone that would take her in or help her? YOu need to think and fast. She is going on seven months pregnant. IF something happens to her, we will never even know." Zero says.
"I will get a list of all the houses we own. We may have to visit them all, no call. No letting any of them know what we are doing. Just showing up." Kaname suggests.
"Fine, whatever you need. Just get the list." Zero replies.
