Let's Go!~~~

Chapter Nineteen

Zero cursed the fates, lady luck, Cross; whomever he felt was at fault for the situation he was in. He glared at Cross from the corner of his eye as he contemplated a long, hard death for his guardian. At least he'd had the forethought to sit Kaito further from Kaname. Or maybe it was an accident, he thought snidely, seriously doubting his guardian's intelligence and common sense at the moment.
He was seated directly across from Yuki. Ichijo sat to her left and Kaito to her right. Cross sat his left and Kaname at his right. Or rather seethed would be the more proper word to describe his mate state beside him. Anger flowed through the bond, pulsating at the back of his head and basically causing a dull headache. His aura curled around Zero, a direct oppressive force that pinned him to his seat. It stroked across his senses, rubbing every pleasure spot it could reach. His body was slowly melting into the invisible touch, and the not so invisible touch; Kaname's fingers were smoothing back and forth over the sensitive skin of his spine causing a chain reaction in his body. A ruddy tint painted his cheeks, obvious to anyone who would take notice. Yuki, did take notice and was now hiding her smile under the guise of wiping her mouth with her dinner napkin. Ichijo's face held the kind of impassivity of someone trying desperately to keep their laughter under wraps. He glared at them for a brief moment.
He couldn't quite keep the glare up though, Kaname's soft touch and his aura rubbing gently across his bite marks was heating him from the inside out. He was flushed, heated and hard pressed to keep his mind on the conversation; his thoughts kept drifting towards his mate's the intoxicating touch. The result was that he'd spaced out for much of the meal, letting the tete-a-tete become white noise. That was very, very bad. It was clear to him that Kaito, having noticed Zero's inattention to his attempted discourse and the reason for it, was becoming angrier and angrier as dinner went on.
And if Kaito was angry, Kaname was absolutely livid, though outwardly he only projected broad smugness at being able to catch and hold his mate's attention so completely. He smiled at the hunter, all teeth and his eyes freezing like arctic winds.
"So what do you think of our Academy, Takamiya-san?"
Kaito's black eyes turned to focus on Cross after a moment. "It's enlightening, though some components are better than others," His eyes flickered to Zero and back to Cross. "Who would actually believe that humans and vampires can co-exist."
Kaname's fingers paused and it seemed as if the temperature in the room dropped. Zero slashed a look at him from underneath his lashes in warning.
"Everyone here has worked hard to cultivate that peace." Kaname said in answer. His voice was as cold as his eyes, the epitome of the night Class President. Kaito's eyes narrowed slightly swiveling to him. Kaname leaned closer to Zero in response making no attempt to keep his touching discreet. Kaito's mouth tightened at the flagrant display. Zero didn't think he could blush any more than he was already. He made a slightly exasperated noise as Kaname's anger heightened making the headache worse.
You're overreacting, He scolded his mate.
Hmmm….Overreaction. You actually think my anger is an overreaction when my mate snuck out of bed to meet with someone else?
I didn't 'sneak', he's human therefore he keeps human hours. I would have been just as happy to meet him at night while you were awake! And on top of that it was only a catchup between friends!
I don't believe what the hunter is feeling towards you constitutes as friendship. Kaname's inner voice was hard. His aura tightened around Zero, wreaking havoc on his nervous system as it stroked across his pleasure sensors again.
The other occupants, completely oblivious to the conversation going on between them, continued on with dinner. Kaito kept constant watch on Zero, observing the absent look in his eyes, further proof of the pureblood's hold on him.
"It is pretty remarkable what you have built here; a haven for humans and vampires." There was the slightest emphasis on vampires and Zero's sensors began to clamor. It was like two toddlers playing tug-of-war with a coveted toy.
Maybe I should just kill him. Surely the world would be better without him in it, Kaname drawled in his head, his mental voice sliding through his mind , soft and silky with menace. Zero didn't even acknowledge the ridiculous comment.
To be honest he was secretly relieved that Kaname was focused and preoccupied with his jealousy over the black-haired hunter. It delayed his realizing what had caused the small argument between he and Kaito. The revelation he didn't want the pureblood look to closely into right now. Not until he got his own feelings sorted.
"The little town is delightful," Kaito was saying when he tuned back in. "Just recently I discovered a small cafe, beautiful in it's brightness and simplicity. It also serves great tea."
Absolute silence filled Zero's head as Kaname went still as Stonehenge beside him. Zero glanced at the antique clock on the wall and wondered, with slowly approaching panic, if he could be rude, cut his losses and drag his vampire from the room. The sudden calm he was exhibiting was tantamount to the eye of the storm right before said storm broke and tore your crops and houses to shreds. His sharp glance cut back to Kaito.
Kaito stared back at him, dark eyes fathomless. He was rightfully puzzled as to why the hunter felt the need to bait his mate so outrageously. Because that was what he was doing. He knew the hunter must despise the thought of him mated to a vampire and a pureblood at that. But did that totally account for his behavior? He cursed himself yet again for being so impulsive. Maybe if he had stuck around and spent a little more time in Kaito's presence he would know more about what was making the hunter tick nowadays.
"Yes, the town is quite beautiful and quiet. It's one of the reasons I chose it as the site of the academy." Cross answered sagely.
Yuki and Ichijo, of course having caught the tense undercurrents of the conversation, conferred quietly on their side of the table. He was alone in the madness that was affecting at the pureblood and vampire hunter. Kaname moved, dragging a fingernail over his sensitive skin. Zero jerked in surprise which caused Cross to look at him in concern.
"Is the curry not to your liking?" He inquired innocently.
In answer, Zero affected a huge yawn, capitalizing quickly the opportunity presented. "No, it's not that, I'm just a little tired. Keeping early hours and patrolling at night is exhausting." He looked down at his half eaten plate. "It's even effecting my appetite." He avoided looking at anyone at the table. "I should go get some rest. You know with classes and all." He stretched dramatically.
Kaname moved even closer, pressing a soft kiss to the curve of his ear and said in a low voice that was nevertheless intended to carry down the table, "You did indeed leave bed too early. And after a long night, it's no wonder you're still tired."
Dimly, as his cheeks heated to bright, scarlet cherries, the blush that had somewhat faded rushing right back in, he heard Cross choke. Unbidden his eyes gravitated to Kaname in embarrassed disbelief. His mate wasn't looking at him, however. He was looking at Kaito, his eyes still cold and now calculating. Zero thought it prudent to get his pureblood out of the building now before he really blew a gasket. In desperation he looked to Ichijo, demand clear in his lilac irises.
Ichijo nodded imperceptibly. You owe me.
Zero nodded right back. Yeah right I haven't forgotten that you're the cause of this entire situation!
"Kaname-sama." Ichijo coughed lightly, drawing Kaname's attention. "I do believe there are some matters that still need to be taken care of." He alluded to the still unopened envelope that Kaname had received from the council today.
Reserve bloomed in Kaname's eyes. After his latest escapade in dealing with them, he didn't look forward to opening the letter. No, he would rather take care of a pesky hunter that hinted that he wanted to lay his hands on his very own delectable, purpled eyed hunter. But Zero was rising at his side, plate in hand. He snagged Kaname's and headed for the kitchen quickly.
"Yuki can take care of the dishes and maybe Ichijo." Zero volunteered the noble quickly setting the plates on a counter before he was back. Yuki squawked in indignation. He ignored her. "I really need to get some sleep tonight so that I can be awake for class."
"As if you'll make it to class." Yuki commented sotto voce. Zero ignored her already moving towards the foyer. The other dinner quests had no choice but to follow. He collected Kaname's jacket and handed it to the reluctant pureblood.
Kaito, unfortunately, chose that moment to approach Zero. He acted as if Kaname didn't exist as he pulled alongside Zero. "Can I have a private word?"
Zero almost growled in frustration as Kaname's sure clamped down on him in response to the question. His mate's glare was as sharp as a stiletto as it rested on Kaito.
He takes too many liberties. Zero shivered. Kaname's mental voice sounded like danger.
Quit it! Let him have his say! You have yours all the time!

He only moved several paces away before turning to face Kaito, leaving the chastised vampire to wait. He tapped his foot as he waited for Kaito to start talking

"I just wanted to apologize for earlier, " Kaito started. "I didn't mean to offend. You that is."
Zero slid shut and open in surprise. Kaito apologizing? Yes, it was official. He didn't know this Kaito. The years they'd spent apart had warped the other hunter into a stranger. He finally found his voice. "It's fine. It isn't easy for me to accept either." He responded quietly. "But I had really had no choice in the matter. I can't change it even if I wanted to. All either you or I can do is accept it."
"And if I can't?" Kaito's voice was just as low. "What if I can't allow my 'friend' to succumb to-to that."
Zero let his question skip over the roulette wheel that was his mind at the moment, waiting until his swirling thoughts came to a halt; knowing that Kaname could hear therm with his superior vampire hearing. The pureblood was seething in his head again. " Are you going to stand in my way?" His own voice was edging towards coldness. He wouldn't stand for any threat to his mate.
"I hope I wouldn't have a reason to." Kaito answered seriously.
Zero didn't respond right away, examining his response. "I won't forgive you if any harm comes to him." He finally said his voice chilly. "Whether you like it or not we are mated. To hurt him his to hurt me." He grinned evilly. "And I invite you to take both of us on." He turned away not wanting to hear the hunter's answer to his own threat. He just walked past Kaname and out of the door.
Kaname stared after his hunter eyes riveted to the silver strands of his hair, recognizing the stubborn set to his shoulders. He nodded his goodbye to Yuki and the others. "Yuki we definitely have to speak soon." With that aside he wished the others good night and hurried to catch up to Zero. The ex human was walking rapidly as if he couldn't wait to get away as fast as possible. The two walked in silence, the only sound the soles of their shoes on the tree lined pathway. They walked not even speaking through the bond. Though Kaname could clearly sense Zero's thoughts. But he didn't regret dinner. He'd let the hunter know that the ex human belonged to him. He'd seen the desire in the hunter's eyes and he'd enjoyed cutting him with his relationship to the one he wanted and throwing salt in the wound. It was an irrevocable fact that Zero was bound too tightly to him to break away or be freed. The fact pleased him greatly. He hoped the hunter was frustrated.
Battle won, he thought, Of course it helped that his little hunter was completely enamored of him, and thrown off balance with the feelings that had grown past the point of no return. It was so adorable. He just wanted to drag him to the nearest surface and coax the words out of him in sexually, inventive ways. But he didn't dare make a move towards his touchy mate at the moment. Occasionally he let his eyes stray to the vampire walking beside him. He didn't attempt to reassure the hunter, knowing he could feel the emotions he was feeling. The urge to prove his dominance and ownership had spread through him during dinner and now he wanted the hunter beneath in him in a big, warm bed.
A predatory smiled covered his face at the thought.
His mate was understandably wary though he didn't look at him once. Kaname could still feel the emotion through the bond. The absence of sound as they walked didn't mean and absence of feeling. It buzzed around them and through their link as they traversed the pathway to the moon dorm. It resonated with his resentment and ire and Zero's uncertainty. The air around them crackled with tension.
Zero glanced at the pureblood from the corner of his eyes. He appeared impassive as usual although he burned inwardly with rage. He made a sound of vexation and came to an abrupt halt, turning to face Kaname directly. Kaname met him head on, stopping and mirroring his movements. The dark, purple eyes were dark with emotions, clean, clear windows to his soul. It was clear he was amped for a fight.
"Do you have something you want to say?" As always he was bold and straight to the point.
Kaname's eyes flared with excitement and hunger. He was suddenly closer to the ex human. Zero stumbled backwards at the sudden ambush but he couldn't avoid the large, graceful hands. He was pushed against the nearest tree before he could protest, his movement being controlled by his mate. Kaname arranged him to his liking against the bark before he laid his own body over Zero's a leg sliding between him so their bodies were pressed flush together. He shivered, relishing the feel of his slim form against him. When he spoke his breath was a balmy caress on the ex human's plump lips.
"Isn't there something that you would like to tell me?"
He watched closely as Zero processed the question, his thoughts flittering over his face. The wary look returned full force. He saw when the hunter decided to deny his emotions. He pressed closer, cutting off the lies before they could form on his pretty lips. "Don't." The beast inside him was roaring, the desire to claim their mate paramount. Kaname drew a shaky breath, his hands slid up to Zero's face enjoying the fell of the soft skin beneath his make fingertips. Zero's voice faltered as Kaname turned his face up. Kaname felt his breath quicken at the close proximity. He smiled and it wasn't nice more like the smile of the big, bad wolf.
"Don't lie. Just say it."
Kaname reveled in the stubbornness that replaced the wariness and fired the lilac eyes. His own rose to fore to match. He didn't stop to wonder why the words were so important to him when he could feel the emotion clearly through their private link. He knew the words would be the last chain he could wrap around the hunter to anchor him to him tightly. He brushed his lips with a light kiss when Zero didn't respond.
"What are you afraid of?"
Losing himself completely? Giving up that last piece of himself? Falling utterly to the pureblood's whims? The last thought sent a shaft of amusement through Zero. As if he was completely subject to the pureblood's whims already. Look eat him now pinned to a tree where anyone could wander by and he hadn't tried to shoot the vampire yet. He was totally hopeless.
"You're too pushy." He muttered attempting to turn his face away in avoidance.
Kaname held him fast refusing to let him get away, his gaze acute on the lovely panorama of Zero's face. "Hmmm…that's your answer?"
Having no choice, Zero met his observation head on. "I'm not the only one keeping secrets. What are you hiding?"
Sienna eyes glinted with emotions to fast to decipher as Kaname answered the provocation. "A great many things, are you ready to learn? I mean you've been afraid all this time to take the final step."
Zero blinked, taken aback by the immediate response and the fact that Kaname let him lead the conversation from something he so obviously wanted. His versatile mind grabbed on to the way to escape his dilemma. "What are you hiding?"
"A double edged sword. Are you sure that you are ready to learn? Once you take that last step avoidance is impossible." Kaname warned, his fingers tightening the only clue to his discomfort with the subject.
"I want to know the truth." His pulse sped up at the thought. "I want to know everything."

Kaname's sigh was a gentle exhalation against his mouth. He stepped away giving Zero his freedom. "Come then. This is best done in comfort." The regret in his eyes almost made Zero change his mind.

They completed the rest of the journey in the same tense silence that it had began in, each sequestered his own thoughts. Though it had eased somewhat, Kaname's anger still vibrated the bond. Zero's inner alarms began to chime as they walked into the commons of the moon dorms and he was suddenly surrounded by the night class, reminding him once again of how far he'd fallen. He endured it as he followed Kaname up the sweeping staircase, ignoring the bloodthirsty eyes that catalogued his every step. His trigger finger didn't stop itching until they crossed the threshold to their rooms.
He unconsciously admired the clean lines of Kaname's back as he unbuttoned his jacket. The pureblood's mood was so somber now that Zero wondered just what the hell he was about to reveal. Kaname slung his coat over his desk, turning to the settee as his fingers flicked the buttons on his shirt open. Zero was instantly captivated by the smooth, healthy skin that he could see. His fangs resonated with hunger and his red began to bleed into his lilac irises.
Kaname smiled at his reaction, sitting on the settee and beckoning him forward. Zero hesitated, explicit déjà vu giving him pause. "I thought you were giving me answers." He asked suspiciously.
"I am." Kaname smile became all teeth. He touched his chest and a gold circle fared with bright light before dissipating into the air. "It is much more expedient if you just drank."
"Fine." Zero approached him slowly, kicking off his shoes as he advanced. "What the hell was that?"
"A seal." Kaname shrugged as if were nothing. "Vampiric in nature so you wouldn't recognize it."

"Hmmm." Zero murmured as he sank down into his mate's lap, knees hugging his hips. Instant heat welled, lust heating the space around them. Zero trembled, Kaname's closeness effecting him as it always did. His hands found their accustomed place on Kaname's shoulders, his body molding to his, fitting perfectly like the last piece of an intricate conundrum. Kaname reclined as the hunter lined their bodies together, his hands stroking his mate's hips. His own eyes began to glow red as his hunter's sweet scent tantalized his senses. He stared into Zero's face, bottom lip caught between his teeth, charmed by his mates visible reaction to him. A pink blush scored the high blades of his cheeks, his eyelids were lower now and his breath quickened just a bit. It was no surprise when his body reacted to the sight. He absolutely loved seeing his prickly hunter like this. He rocked up letting his cock rub against his mate. He fought the urge take it further, but couldn't resist a small taste. He sank his teeth into the temptingly plump bottom lip tugging gently as he swiped the tip of his tongue along the silky underside. The lovely sound Zero made almost derailed his plans. He moved to deepen the kiss and forcibly checked himself, his hands gripping his hunter's hips as he restrained himself. He let his head fall back onto the back of the settee so that the clean delineation of his throat was wide open.
"Drink." His word was an uneven exhalation.
Zero didn't obey the command, just let his body relax further as he studied the pureblood. "Why are you being so easy about this? One would think you would fight like hell to keep your secrets secret."
Kaname closed his eyes for an extensive moment. When he opened them again they blazed. "Some secrets are not meant to be kept forever. Drink." He ordered again. His fingers threaded through the silky silver hair, drawing him down, relaxing when Zero's lips smoothed over his pulse. He tensed again when Zero only swiped his tongue back and forth, teasing the velvety skin. His fingers tightened pressing his stubborn mate closer. "Now is not the time to test my desire for you." He gritted out.
Zero chuckled, felt his pureblood jerk beneath him as the sound vibrated deep within him. Kaname groaned, his voice heavy with arousal. "Drink or your answers will wait for another day."
Zero smiled happy for once he was the one doing the teasing. He let his slender, white fangs slide down slowly penetrating satiny skin in small maddening increments. He covered Kaname's heart with his hand enjoying the beat against his palm. The first mouthful hit him like a tanker, the potency enormous after being suppressed by the seal for so long. This time he was the one who jerked against the pureblood. His fingers wrenched the cloth of Kaname's shirt as the fiery, heady liquor slid down his throat; Spicier in taste with the faintest hint of cinnamon. He whimpered as the memories followed in a rush to fast for him to comprehend. The bond opened and he was caught and wrapped firmly in Kaname. Dimly he felt Kaname pet his hair affectionately before he whispered the command. He struggled to free himself as he felt sleep creep over him.
Arrogant prick, he thought right before he was bowled under.

WOW!~ I enjoyed writing this chapter. All I can hear in the background is the clink, clink, clink of a roller coaster climbing the hill right before the first dip
Until next time~~~~~~~~~~~~
