Hello everyone! This is the last chapter, {blushes with a huge grin excitedly} please don't hate me after you read the chapter! I really intended to kill him off, but had a whole different plot idea. Please no hate reviews! Dx Enjoy... {crosses fingures} I own nothing but for the plot!

Marked

Me Enamore De Ti

When I'm with you, my hope grows
You keep feeding my soul's love
And without noticing, time took my breath away
What would become of me if I can't have you?

If you're not with me, air leaves me, empty heart
Being in your arms, only by your side I feel like I can breathe
There's nothing to change, there's nothing to say
If you're not with me I'm left in the middle of nowhere, I freeze to death
Ah! how much I love you, if it's not with you I lose my senses
There's so much to invent, there's nothing to hide... "I fell in love with you"
I fell in love with you...

Zero stared at Kaname in shock, he had gotten that tattoo to seal his mated mark, but to break it his mate would have to-no Zero won't let him do that. He glared and slapped his hand away. He backed away seeing that Kaname was reaching towards him like a little kid.

"If you were that woman and we had sex {Zero blushed} three years ago, then those kids..." Kaname felt his throat tighten looking at Zero.

"Hn," Zero turned around only to be grabbed by Kaname roughly making him face the taller man.

"Tell, they are mine aren't they?" Kaname narrowed his eyes.

"Let go of or I will kill you, you blood sucker." Zero glared feeling scared for the kids, he had to get them out of there and fast. If only he could find a way to get out of there unnoticed by the vampire.

"Not until I see my children," Kaname grabbed his arm and brought the scared silverette towards his face.

Zero shivered when his breath ghosted over his lips, he remembered that night. How could he forget, he had suffered during his pregnancy because he was needing his other half to be with him. He was moodier during his pregnancy, if it weren't for Kaien finding something to control himself from the book then he would have run to the brunette a long time ago. Zero glared at him.

"Never," he said simply and began to walk away slowly.

"I will not let you go. I was stupid for doing that in the beginning and I'd be damned if it happened a second time." Kaname said with a half glare.

"Too bad," Zero said walking right past him and Kaname held to his arm.

"If I can't see them then I'll fight for custody." Kaname growled, if he had the kids then Zero would have to come with him.

Zero froze and looked up at him, would he really. Knowing the bastard he would pull strings and win the fight. Of course he'll win, he's Kaname fucking Kuran a pureblood bastard. Zero would not give up the fight even if he had to lose a limb. He was about to talk when someone shoved him out-of-the-way and he was not surprised as a woman hugged him around Kaname's neck kissing him on the cheek. That was the woman who shared drinks with, the bitch purposely got him drunk stupid so he could ridicule himself. But it backfired and had slept with the man, he glared at her. The woman looked at him and saw the glare, she narrowed her eyes at him.

"Kaname dear, who is this?" she asked him with her fake innocent eyes.

"Zero we need to talk about─"

"Nothing we are done!" Kaname caught the double meaning of Zero's words and his heart froze. Zero wouldn't let him anywhere near his children, he had to do something and get Zero to love him.

Kaname watched Zero walk away and was about to go after him, but slender arms wouldn't let him. He watched Senri stop and talk to Zero, both talk for a couple of seconds and said their farewells. Kaname's eyes followed the silverette disappearing with the people. He looked at the floor, aura dark and some of the machines began to break along with the windows, if Zero wanted to play like that. Then he will have to find another way to see his children.

"He's here," Zero said opening the room passing Yori's husband who was leaving for work.

"What are you going to do?" she asked him with a worried expression.

"He wants to fight custody for the children," Zero shook tears running down his face, Yori hugged him.

"No he won't." Yori said with a smile.

"Why?" Zero asked feeling his mind all fuzzy.

"Because how will he fight a male mother for his kids, the judge is going to deemed him mental and lock him up in a nut house," Yori answered with a smile hearing the children play around the balcony.

"You're right, he can't. But he has money which I'm lacking of and will pull some strings to win." Zero sighed putting his black blazer over his white buttoned up shirt.

"Damn him," Yori cursed under her breath,

The door knocked and both adults looked up to see on the peephole to see maroon-colored hair. Zero sighed and opened it revealing Senri with his blank face. Zero hugged him and smiled ushering him inside the room. Senri sat on the bed looking at the children play around the balcony their laughter was like beautiful music.

"He's been looking for you all these years." Senri started playing with the pokey box that was on the table.

"Psh, with a woman like her who could have time?" Zero said sarcastically taking the box opening it and giving them to Senri who thanked him and ate some.

"Well she has been an annoying maggot trying to wiggle her way to his heart." Senri said with a pokey sticking out of his mouth, God he loved them.

"Well, as long as he leaves me alone..." Zero glared at the poor floor.

"May I ask what happened after you left?" Senri asked looking at the woman who had excused herself to the bathroom.

Zero began to tell him since the first day he left all the way to his father's disease. He couldn't lift heavy weight and if he did then he would easily get tired and blood wouldn't flow to his heart. Zero had told Senri about his mark, he sealed it to tame his beast that would cry for his mate. Covering it also covered what he was, no wonder Kaname hadn't sensed him earlier. Zero sighed and told him about his miserable life, he worked as a security, his boss being the greedy bastard had cut them off one hour. He hardly afforded the place where they lived and thanks to Yori and her family they had helped him so much especially when it was about money.

"Can I see your children," Senri changed the subject smelling the salty air.

"Sure, kids." Zero called them back inside.

Senri saw three heads and ran their way towards Zero, tackling him into one pile of hugs. Zero smiled and kissed only two of them. He looked closely and saw one that looked like Zero, the second one he had to intake a breath. He was seeing his cousin all over again! Every little detail was Kaname as a child, Senri wanted to run and make sure that Kaname didn't change into a child. He doubted it since he couldn't sense what the child was. But those wine-colored eyes bore into him as if reading his soul, Senri knew that was Kaname's child alright.

"I Ichiru and my older twin Darius. This is Kaito a friend!" the silverette smiled as he hugged the maroon-haired man.

"Sorry about that, Ichiru loves to give out hugs." Zero said seeing that his oldest was looking at Senri with a look he couldn't read himself.

"It's all right," Senri said hugging the pudgy child and sat him on his knees making the child hug around his neck.

"I don't know why, but I like yous already!" Ichiru smiled up at him with his huge innocent eyes making Senri look at him with raised eyebrows.

"I have a mate already," Senri played along with the child.

"Really, is he pretty as yous?" Ichiru just talked and talked making Zero blush, Ichiru would be the most talkative child while Darius was more reserved and serious. But if you mixed those two along with Kaito then all hell would break loose.

Zero watched Senri smile slightly and hugged him, it was his blood and they were calling out for each other. He smiled and sighed seeing that it was almost six, he had to go to work in a few leaving them inside the room, which would mean that they would have to watch them every five minutes. Senri had volunteered to watch over them for the day, Zero and Yori smiled and kissed their children before they left to work satisfied.

Zero watched his children play around the park, Senri was with them and smiled fixing his arm band and walking to the food court. He didn't see the group of his followers that passed him when a couple of tourists passed him, Zero looked back once more and looked ahead satisfied. Meanwhile the group got closer to the maroon-haired man who noticed them the minute they began to walk his way. He let go of the children and walk to his group with a sigh.

"Senri what are you doing here?" Yuki asked looking around the playpen with a raised eyebrow.

"Just taking care of some kids," Senri shrugged leaning back against a huge poster of a lion who smiled showing his large and sharp teeth.

"Do you know if Kaname is out of the meeting already?" Niname asked him pulling a pale-blonde lock behind her ear and looked at a couple of kids walking their way.

"Woah! Just how many more people are there with silver hair?" Aidou asked seeing the kids look at him. Senri looked behind him to see only Ichiru and Kaito looking at the new people with open curiosity.

"Where is your brother Darius?" he asked looking over the playpen to see the said child missing.

"He went potty!" Ichiru smiled also wanting to go, he held Senri's hand and took him. "I gotta go too!" Ichiru lead him to the toilet making every one of his friends gasp with wide eyes and mouth frozen.

"I'll be back," Senri shrugged his friends ignoring them who were stuck stupefied, hey they were his blood!

"Here!" Ichiru stopped at the toilet with a picture of a kid and had wild animals around it.

Senri helped him and Ichiru told him to wait for him outside the toilet and he did giving the child his space. Ichiru was signing in the toilet and his older brother knocked on his door. Ichiru looked at him with a smile when Darius opened the door, he got up and they left the bathroom with a couple of people who were also coming out. Both giggled when they saw Senri talk with the weird people outside the toilet, he was distracted, good!

"I wanna meet the man who looks like me," Darius said leading him around in their pudgy adventure.

"Me too!" Ichiru giggled and hugged his older brother from his back making said older brother frown and let him go.

"I saw them come out of that room, then they went back inside." Darius said with a frown, he had spied them from afar while the adult thought he was playing.

"Let's go," Ichiru smiled and both walked mentally thanking Kaito for his cooperation, it only took Ichiru to promise they'll get married when they get older.

Kaname came out of the meeting with a content smile, he was glad they accepted it. The business would open around the middle of next year. It gave him plenty of time to arrange how his business was going to be followed. He will hire an architecture and an interior decor so both could make it look beautiful. He would start to hire beautiful people around the beginning of next year.

"I can't believe we've come this far! Your parents would have been proud to see this day." Takuma smiled hugging the folders that kept the documents.

"Yes, and if the business goes good then we'll build another in New York in five years." Kaname smiled walking down the hallway.

Takuma was about to speak when they saw two small figures running their way, he didn't know who they were since the lights from behind them shadowed their faces. But once they got closer he paled realizing that they are Zero's children running their way. His emerald gaze landed on Kaname, he looked awestruck watching the children stop right in front of them both looking up at his leader and himself.

"You! Why'd you look like me?" Darius asked looking up at the man who caught his attention.

Kaname didn't speak nor do anything, he walked towards them and crunched down seeing them up close. He smiled seeing his child look up at him with serious eyes, he rustle his hair making the boy whine and slap his hand away. Darius hated when they mess his hair up, he cried when Zero wouldn't stop and the older man took him out to the frozen yogurt place and he forgave him. Kaname wanted to know what was it that kept their scent at bay, his eyes landed on Zero's look-alike who studied him with a shy smile and jumped him.

"Kaname!" Takuma watched Kaname fall on his bottom not seeing that coming.

Said man looked down to see the small silverette look up at him with a huge smile that could rival Hawaii. He wrapped his arms around the smaller body feeling an emotion deep within making his heart flutter with happiness. There is no doubt that these are his children, he smiled and hugged him nuzzling his face to the child's neck, he smelled just like Zero did when they first met. Kaname pulled the other boy who was startled and hugged him nuzzling his face on his small neck. Takuma had dropped the folder seeing the older man smiling and hugging the children, if he took a picture now and showed it to their inner circle they would all laugh telling him that he had photo shopped the damn thing.

"Do you really want to know who I am?" Kaname asked walking with each child on his arm, the children felt safe so they didn't call for help.

"Yes!" Both chanted at the same time making Kaname smirk mentally.

They left the hotel and went to a fancy restaurant, Takuma followed not really knowing if his leader knew how to take care of children. They went inside after the woman was hungrily staring at them and made them sit on the best table in the house. He ordered off the kids menu for the children and the adult's for himself. Takuma ordered as well with his charming smile making the waitress blush and ran to the kitchens.

"You're uncle Senri's husband?" Ichiru asked looking at him with wide innocent eyes.

"Yup, how do you know him?" Takuma raised his eyebrow at the child.

"Easy, he was babysitting us and we escaped. He was in our room earlier and talked to mom. He looked like he was crying..." Ichiru said looking around to see many people in the huge restaurant.

"Idiot," Darius sighed rubbing his forehead.

"What? I like uncle Senri, but he said he was taken already. It's okay though 'cause when I grow up I'm going to marry Kaito!" Ichiru smiled making Kaname almost choke on his wine.

"What?" Kaname didn't know what to ask so that one word came out uncertain. Did he hear right, his child wasn't even a preteen and already got himself engaged to a human! He would have to torchure the other kid that was with them, no way in hell that he was taking his son.

"So what are you to us?" Darius asked seeing the look of the older man.

"What if I told you that I know who your father is?" Kaname smirked watching Takuma's eyes widened.

"Really! I wanna meet him and hug him and kiss him and tell him I love him!" Ichiru smiled in excitement food all over his pudgy face.

"Really? And how about you Darius?" Kaname asked taking a napkin and wiping Ichiru's face, he felt natural cleaning his cherubic face.

"Well mom ran away from dad for a reason, I'm sure whatever reason was it had to be good," Darius tried to speak, Takuma raised both eyebrows. Damn, the kid had Kaname's brains and Zero's attitude a dangerous combination. While Ichiru was happy-go-lucky and still had Kaname's brains, but the happy-go-lucky nature was from someone else. Both Kaname and Zero were not like that...

"Don't you want to meet him though?" Kaname asked feeling a tad bit sad.

"Sure why not?" Darius shrugged nonchalant looking bored, how did he manage to get Senri's expression? Takuma was officially freaked out now.

"Well you are seeing him." Kaname said with a soft gaze.

"You're daddy!" Ichiru gasped putting both chubby hands on his mouth with a gasp and eyes wide. Takuma watched them with an eagle's look.

"No wonder we look the same," Darius said taking a sip from his apple juice.

"Daddy!" Ichiru threw himself at him and true to his words and began to kiss him. After he was done his chubby arms circled around his neck smiling. "I have a dad!" he said with happiness.

"Aren't you going to hug me?" Kaname brought his other hand to Darius who still looked up at him with a blank expression.

"Mom left you for a reason, but I can't ignore that you fathered us." Darius said not going anywhere near the older brunette, Kaname was having none of that and brought his oldest to his chest.

Takuma smiled, he would be lying and say they do not look happy even though Darius was trying hard not to smile. The smile beat him and hugged his father resting his head on Kaname's neck. Now that the truth was revealed, there was one huge obstacle that will blow a casket once he finds out that his children are missing... Zero.

"Darius! Ichiru!" Zero was looking around along with Yori, Rima and Senri. The inner circle went to go have lunch and left them to their fate. He mentally killed each one and looked around the hotel.

"Zero..." Yori coming from the security room.

"What?" Zero asked in a desperate tone looking at his friend.

"Come look," Yori said leading all three people inside the room.

The room was filled with cameras, Zero was watching a paused one and gasped. Senri and Rima held in a breath seeing their king holding the children exiting the hotel. Zero swore under his breath, Takuma looked unsure while looking behind. He would maim the vampire and use his fangs for a pretty necklace showing everyone not to mess with them. Well at least they knew where they were, and Kaito had confessed a while later. Yori had scolded her son, but he apologized while crying. Zero forgave him, he knew his children had inherited that bastard's brains.

"What are we going to do?" Rima asked looking at a certain video where her friend walked towards the entrance.

"Oh no," Senri's comment made Zero look up at the cameras.

Kaname was returning with the children and his friends were exiting the place, they are going to see his children. Zero didn't want them to see his babies, they were probably going kill them for being his. Zero ran out of the room not caring that he bumped into people. He had to get his children, but deep down he knew it was too late already once he saw them chatting up. He saw a group of people blocking his way and caught the sentence.

"He looks just like you, so adorable!" Niname hugged him to her chest almost suffocating Darius.

"Thanks," Zero heard Kaname reply, did he know...?

"And that one looks like that one whore from years ago." Niname said pinching Ichiru's soft cheek leaving it red.

"Who the hell do you think you are to compare my son to a whore!" Zero glared at her after the people passed.

"Oh it's you," Niname said still hugging Darius to her bosom.

"Mom," Darius looked scared reaching out to his 'mother'. Everyone gasped looking up at Zero who snatched Darius away and checked him over in case she bruised him.

"Mommy! Daddy took us to huge rest'rant!" Ichiru couldn't say the word but Zero tensed when everyone looked pale. How did his children know that Kaname was their father─ he glared at him and Kaname smirked holding Ichiru close to him. Ichiru smiled hugging and kissing him on the cheek making Zero explode in anger.

"Really now son, go say bye to your dad we have to go home." Zero said putting Darius down who clung to him glaring at the platinum-blonde woman who tried to suffocate him.

"Hold on a second," Yuki shouted glaring at Zero.

"How in the world are you their mother and Kaname their father? Where did you find them?" Niname looked red from anger that Kaname had children and didn't tell her.

"None of your business," Zero said calmly too calmly for Kaname's taste.

"You whore, it's you from the party! What did you do? Get a sex change. You stupid tramp I knew you were trouble when my beautiful eyes landed on you. You just had to open your legs and get pregnant so that you had Kaname hooked around your finger. Just take your children and go die." Niname was all over Zero's face looking red and stomped her feet.

"First of all, get off my face. Second, it's none of your damn business. And third, don't ever talk like that about me or my children, you know nothing." Zero glared at her with his murderous one making her gulp and shrink back.

"Holy shit," Kain said rubbing his head from all the raised tension.

"I feel weird having mini Kanames and Zeros running around on the loose," Takuma sighed.

"Don't you mean dangerous?" Senri offered looking at his stressed mate.

"That too," he leaned his head on his smaller mate's shoulder.

"I actually want to see them grow up," Aidou said from Kain's side.

"Shh, pay attention," Ruka said looking at the three people.

"Go ahead and marry Kaname, give him plenty of children, I don't care what he does with his life. As long as he leaves me and my children alone go and have kids now." Zero glared at the woman who smiled in triumph.

"Don't I have a say in all of this?" Kaname asked looking at the blonde and silverette.

Both glared at him with murder in their eyes, Zero looked at the blonde who also turned to look at him. He watched as the blonde slowly walked towards Kaname and too the kid from his arms and looked him over with disgust. Zero watched his son look up at the woman with fear written on his lavender eyes like his mother's. Zero swore when she smirked and looked at him and then at Darius, then at everyone else who were present.

"If these were my kids, I'm sure they would've looked much beautiful than these." Niname said giving Zero back his child. "Kaname and I will make much cuter children then that, Darius is one handsome child and Ichiru is not." Niname smirked watching Ichiru with tears on his lavender eyes, and Zero punched the woman not caring if he did it in public.

"That's for insulting me and my child," Zero said walking out of their sight with the children.

"Zero wait!" Kaname said and was held back by the woman who had a bruise on the side of her pretty face.

"He punched me! He punched a woman!" Niname shrieked glaring at the retreating man with both children looking up at them with sad faces.

Kaname snatched his arm back and glared at the hysterical woman, he smirked inside when she flinched and looked at the ground. Her platinum-blonde hair made a curtain around her face, she was beyond mad. No one punched her and lives, she will make sure to get her revenge, no one has ever done this to her. Kaname looked up to see that Zero had disappeared and he can't sense none of them, how did he hide his mark and scent so well?

He walked ignoring his group calling for him and went to the elevator where he saw Zero enter seconds ago. He went inside and took to the first floor to see a line of doors across from the elevator, he sighed knowing this will be one hell of a long time. He went to the receptionist and asked her if he knew the man.

"Yes, he is in room..."

Kaname walked to the elevator and pressed to the number of floor where the room was. He glared made the elevator go much faster getting him there in no time. He almost ran to the room and used his powers to open it. He walked inside seeing that it was already deserted. Kaname's powers went haywire making anything glass shatter into beautiful tiny pieces and the TV to explode along with the light-bulbs and lamps. The beds were thrown to the other side smashing the wall, how dare he take his children and leave him once again? Kaname glared and slowly walked out of the now messy room not bothering to close the door. With every step a light-bulb would explode sending many people running for their lives.

His aura screamed blood, he wants his mate and children. Now! Kaname glared at his inner group seeing them all flinch in fear, his eyes landed to Senri who looked neutral. He will have to pay extra close attention to him if he wanted to find Zero again. His powers went out of control making his eyes turn blood red and the whole building shook making some of the walls crack and fall.

"Kaname!" Niname wrapped her arms around him making him even more pissed.

"Big brother stop before you kill us!" Yuki said seeing many humans running out of their rooms.

Kaname breathed in once, twice and thrice to see his little sister with wide-innocent eyes. He looked away ignoring her shock and walked away shrugging Niname's hug. He felt like burning that arm, his inner circle followed with a worried expression. They took the stairs and passed the slots. The machines were all broken and forgotten seeing that smoke came out from them. Kaname kept walking as if everything was peachy normal, he ignored the people crying for the machines that took their money and they didn't even play.

"Where could Zero have gone?" Takuma asked looking up at the shattered chandelier.

"Who cares," Ruka shrugged fixing her hair in a braid.

"I actually want him to come back and make Kaname happy again," Aidou said with a sweat-drop.

"Ditto," Kain said with a sigh.

Rima and Senri said nothing for they too don't know where the silverette had gone. They would call him once no one was looking their way, they would have to be extra careful with Kaname. Said man went outside and looked around to see many people still running out of the once beautiful hotel, he made his way to the limosine and sat far away from his group putting on a barrier around himself.

Zero sighed in relief seeing the hotel growing smaller by the second. He saw his children sit on the backseats on their own seats playing with each other. He smiled and thanked Yori who had helped him escape that bastard. It hurt to see his children look sad, he knew that he was guilty. But that bastard needed to open his eyes and see that beauty is not everything. He glanced at the moon and stars seeing the clouds covering half of the dark sky. But for his selfishness his children are suffering, he wished that Kaname would opened them so he could see that not everyone has to be beautiful, then he might let him take the kids during the weekend, or maybe he could fall for him. Maybe...

"Where to?" Yori asked looking at him from the corner of her eye.

"To your place, knowing that bas─ I mean him he will find a way tolocate where I live." Zero sighed massaging his face.

"OK." she said after a while feeling the car thick with tension, hardly breathing right.

Zero looked up at the rear mirror to see his children half asleep, he noticed Ichiru and Kaito snuggling closer and both falling asleep instantly. Darius looked out the window with a bored expression, Zero knew his son from inside out. And knew that he was thinking of a certain blood sucker. He felt the car screech to a halt making Zero's whole body thrashed forward, but thanks to the belt he only stopped breathing and heard his children scream awake.

"Are you alright?" Zero asked looking behind him seeing his children look scared along with Kaito.

"Mommy," Ichiru streched his arms out towards Zero crying, Darius and Kaito both tried to soothe him.

"It's going to be alright baby," Zero said. "Yori what's wrong?" Zero asked seeing that Yori had a glaze over her light-brown eyes not focusing on anything.

"Mommy!" Ichiru wailed making Kaito wail along.

"Yori!" Zero shook her and she was not responding.

"Look," Darius said making Zero look up.

A dark figure was standing in front of them far away, he couldn't tell if it was male or female for it wore a cloak covering everything. He felt a cold shiver run down his spine, he didn't like this. He glanced at Yori to see her still looking at the figure with glazed eyes, he looked at his children who looked beyond scared.

"Kids, I will make sure to distract it and you three run. Kaito, don't worry your mom will be home once again. Darius you're in charge, you know what to do." Zero said taking his index finger using a piece of paper to cut himself.

The figure was still far away and slowly walking towards them. It began to rain, Zero didn't know where the rain had come from but he was not questioning the Gods for he quickly went to the back seats with his bloodied finger. He pulled Darius's shirt up to see the same tattoo as his own in the middle of his chest, he took his son's finger and apologized slicing it. A drop of blood shined under the streetlamps, he drew the shape on his son's chest with his blood and brought his son's finger to his chest doing the same. He watched it glow a crimson color, the tattoo disappeared and his son's eyes glowed a blood red seeing his mother do the same to his other child.

"Please drink," Zero said offering his neck to his children to awaken them fully.

He had marked his children with the same mark that had covered his scent and his vampire side. He watched his children look at the offered neck with lust in their eyes and slowly closed in, one on each side using their little sharp fangs. Zero flinched when he felt twin fangs pierced his skin, it felt like rose thorns sticking inside his sensitive skin. Zero hid his tears, he might not see his children again, he had to get them away from that thing, whomever it was.

"Mommy?" Ichiru asked looking up at him after his fill.

"Kids, I want you to grab Kaito and run as fast as you can, find your father and stay with him until I come get you." Zero said looking over at Yori who was still looking unfocused.

"You will come?" Darius asked looking up at him with now darker wine eyes that belonged to his father.

"I'll be right behind you." Zero kissed them both and opened the car door to see the figure standing there.

Zero didn't even think twice and tackled it to the ground, he looked behind himself watching his children look at him with horror. Zero yelled at them to run and they did. Each twin grabbing Kaito's hand and sped away into the rainy night. Zero was thrown off the figure landing hard on his back. He glared at the dark figure and still couldn't tell who it was, he saw that the figure grabbed him by the throat and slammed him on the tree.

"Who are you?" Zero gasped for breath.

The figure only tighten his hold on him, Zero's breath was shortened, he felt his body loosing conciousness. No he will not die and let his children be teached by that bastard, he had to live and see them grow up! He kicked with renewed strength seeing that the figure faltered probably surprised that Zero still had a fighting spirit. Zero looked at the figure taking something from out of it's back pocket and froze when he saw a dagger and it was plunged on his mark. It stung, Zero screamed and did not catch the words of the person who still had him by his neck.

"..."

Zero felt his body pulse, his eyes had gone to the other side and saw his children looking at him with tears running down their pudgy face. Zero screamed feeling like acid was poured down his body and slowly felt something inside of him snap, the dagger was out of his body and plunged back in and the figure twisted it, Zero knew the figure was smirking and he prayed that his children would run. With all the force he had he screamed at his children with tears running down his eyes.

"RUN!" and they did just before they get caught. Blood fell down his mouth, he had to gasp for more air.

Zero was slowly loosing his sight, everything was a blur, he tried hard to blink, but nothing. He felt his breath leaving him, his body kept pulsing, Zero saw another figure coming his way. He didn't recognize it right away, his blurry vision couldn't take in the smirking face of the other person, the last words he heard before darkness took him to the other world were...

"It was better if you had not met him. Now all of you will suffer." the figure said with a smirk as Zero fell limp, the dagger still stuck, blood fell from his mouth.

Kaname looked up from the documents when his heart tightened telling him that something was very wrong. His beast began to weep from loss. What did he loose? He shrugged and tried hard to concentrate on the papers once more, but something kept nagging him, a sad feeling fell over him. He didn't understand, until his friends barged inside the room with a worried look. He looked up trying to figure out, but seeing their heartbroken faces made something inside him snap.

"Kaname, why are you crying?" Aidou asked looking at him with worry.

"Huh?" Kaname felt his face as tears ran down his cheeks, he looked down his documents and saw small droplets of water on them.

"Is there something we can do to make them stop?" Ruka asked sitting on the chair.

"No, I don't know why I'm crying. It─," he stopped when he felt two small powerful auras running their way.

Everyone was out the door once they too caught it. Kaname stood in the front along with Takuma and Kaien while the rest were right behind them. He didn't knew these auras, but his beast was not stopping it's cry. He looked to see three small figure running their way. Kaname realized it was his children and ran towards them, he didn't care that he was getting wet, his children needed him. Takuma ran alongside him when he also realized who they were, Kain did too not knowing why the kids were running like their life depended on it.

Both Kaien and Takuma stopped feeling the power the children possessed. Kaname was unaffected and caught up to them, he hugged them kissing each cheek and looked them over. Nothing was wrong, but why all of the sudden he could sense their vampire? He wiped the children's tears off and hugged them, he took Ichiru while Kaien took Kaito and Takuma had Darius.

They were inside and everyone looked at the new purebloods that were Kaname's offspring, they had their hearts broken when the children began to sob. Kaname hugged them and asked what had happened, Darius being the strongest with a few tears running down his cherubic face told them everything. About the attack, Yori's glazed look, the dark figure, his mother awakening them, the fight, and last his mother's last breath. Kaname's throat constricted at that, how could someone openly attack his mate. He growled seeing that the children were still crying, he promised that he will try and look for Zero. But Kaname couldn't feel the silverette anymore, his body was stiff, his heart was dying, and whatever it was that snapped inside of him is making him feel numb. Kaname knew he had lost his mate, his marked mate. He looked down at the children who were sad, everyone along with his heartbroken, no one should have to look at the cherubic faces of his children. He felt a wind blow his chocolate locks, his heart was beating, he knew now not to judge people by their looks, but the heart. Zero had a strong heart, and he will find whomever it was who killed his mate. That he promised, he will get his revenge.

"Daddy?" Ichiru and Darius looked up at him with sad innocent eyes.

"Sleep well my children, for tomorrow will be a new day." Kaname kissed them watching Senri and Takuma hug Kaito rocking him to sleep.

Yes, he now had his heart opened thanks to a certain stubborn mate of his... his loved one, who had never returned his feelings ever...

"Look what I found," a poorly dressed woman said looking at two half-covered bodies.

"What is it?" the man asked seeing the bodies.

"What are we going to do?" the woman asked looking down at the bodies.

The man scratched his greasy hair and shrugged. He watched his wife looking down at the bodies, he never was in a situation where it lead to this. Calling the police would be a one way ticket to jail for finding these bodies, he shrugged. The woman looked sadly towards them, her ripped and stitched up clothes were ruffled by the wind, she looked at the river bank. No one was there, someone must have thrown them over. Who could have done this? She looked back down at the naked bodies, she thanked whatever was up there that she had a blanket with her and covered them up so they wont be cold. The blanket had holes in them but she managed. She smiled patting their wet hair, the bodies were now cover and she brought them to her bosom a high pitched noise was heard thought the night.

"WAA!" a silver-haired baby cried.

I smell a sequel! xD Well my first finished story, I was really hoping to just killing Zero off, but decide against it, there was still somethings left and I wanted Zero to fall for Kaname. And who could be the cloaked figure? Hmm... everyone was with them! I hope everyone enjoyed the story! Please review asking if you want me to put the sequel or just leave it to your imaginations. If I do put the sequel it might take a while to put up because I would have to write it, take notes and so on. But who cares, I could just type it up and see what happens. Right?

Please review! Love you all~ :D

And thank you all for your wonderful reviews who had kept this story up. See you all soon! x)
