Zero listened to the sound of Yuuki's approach. Her shoes slapping the ground in a fast rhythm. He could hear her heart beating faster than normal.
"Zero." Gasped as she stopped in front of him.
Zero watched her try to regain her breath. She must have been running for a while, he thought. Then his eyes slid to her neck as a fierce hunger filled him. He wanted to grab her and bury his fans inside her. He wanted to drink her sweet blood that always filled him with the need for more.
