Zero stood under the stars as he walked the grounds that cold night. He remembered patrolling the grounds with her. The "human her". And sometimes when he closed his eyes he could hear her nagging to get back on task. He wished he could see her one more time...full of energy and positivity. But she wasn't the same anymore. Not the same Yuki. That other girl. The one that's there in her place...he sensed the evil in her. The way she'd look at him sometimes across the room, or make him feel like she was undressing him with her eyes. She was sinister and he felt it. Her small pupils, the long locks, the snow white face, and crimson lips.
A demon, or at least something like the rest of them. She was no longer the free-spirited human girl that he loved. She was dark and confined pureblood princess that now belonged to those monsters. He closed his eyes as he imagined her standing there, smiling up at him. He reached to touch her olive, pigmented skin...but she was gone. She was becoming a blur.
He snapped his head in the direction of the approaching sound of horse hooves and turning wheels. A carriage pulled up to the school gates and he watched as the door swung open. One by one, two black pumps clacked once the heel met the cobblestone. And then out came the woman. The one with rippled blond hair to her thighs...the one with the icy blue eyes that could make anyone cold. He grimaced and stormed off. Yet another of the pureblood race.
She sat in the dark at her windowsill, playing with a lighter. She didn't smoke. She'd gotten it from a friend. But like a child, thought of it as a toy. On and off, on and off, it went. She grew curious. Tilting her head, she kept the lighter on as she hovered a hand over it...drawing a cross on her palm with the flame. Her lips parted as she examined the burning flame on her palm. It hurt...but not like the excruciating pain she had felt many times before. "Are you trying to harm yourself?" she heard. She slowly turned her head to look at her brother. Shutting her palm, a cloud of smoke puffed out from her fist. "It's late. I was beginning to think you'd bailed." she said. He smiled as he walked over to her taking a strand of her hair. "I thought this would be an appropriate hour to arrive." he said. She only looked at him. "Actually it is." She stood up and set the lighter down. "Do you believe in him?" she asked. He cocked a brow. "In who?" he asked. "The Devil..." He frowned. The Devil? He wasn't expecting that. He didn't much take part in any religion...let alone Satanism. She stood waiting for an answer. "Yuki, why would you ask something like this?" he asked. She blinked innocently. "...Do you?" He tilted his head, but she smiled anyway. "You don't have to answer." She gave him the signature hair-raising smile she possessed and walked to the light switch. He stopped her hand. "Leave it off." he said. She looked at him as her bangs fell over one eye. He put his hands on the wall by each side of her temples. "Why do you do it?" he asked her in return this time. She was totally unfazed. "Why do you taunt me...when you make me feel like I'm only your brother?" His hand slid down her arm gently. "You said you loved me...and then you left me. Where did you go? Why do you dismiss me and then taunt with your body?" His hand slowly, gently grabbed her waist. He moved her bangs out of the way, as his fingers traveled down to the sides of her lips. He'd been holding back his urges to kiss those perfect lips since the day she returned. "Are you sure?" she asked. He stared for a moment before crushing his lips to hers. She'd never seen him like this before. So lascivious. This gentle, polite man she'd known for so long...suddenly acting like a savage. He left bitemarks on her collar bone, her hair a mess, and uniform unbuttoned as she did nothing at all to stop him. She held a blank stare, not a smile cracking through or even a moan. He stopped and looked at her. She put her hands behind her back as she leaned against the wall. Her black lingerie was revealed through her unbuttoned shirt and skirt riding up exploiting her suspender tights. "Do you now?" she asked. He caught his breath as he swallowed. "You're a sinner, Kaname." she said. He looked into her eyes. "Not that you weren't just by cheating death with those fangs." His heart skipped a beat as the room grew colder. Something wasn't right. "Yuki-" "You can keep going...the test is over." She said as she guided his hand to her stomach. He restrained her advances. "Yuki what is this? What did you-" "Remember what I said about judging a book by its cover." she whispered. His face went blank. She smirked.
