I can't believe that I actually reached the end of 'Blood Rose' **cries**. I want to thanks every single person that has supported me unti the end of this story. I love you all **gives pockies to everybody** I really loved this story. I still do. I always loved Beauty and the Beast and this was a great opportunity to combine two of the things I like. The sequel will be made in a month.
All of your reviews made me squeal so badly. Everyone at my house thought that I was insane. But I didn't care XD
Disclaimer: I bet you are really tired of this but I will say it anyway. Vampire Knight and Beauty and the beast don't belong to me. I wish I owned them though. That would be so cool.
Chapter 14
Zero kneeled down besides his dad. He felt his chest moving. The movement was slow and barely visible. Taki did not have much time. He already lost too much blood. His body looked even paler than his actual skin tone...if that was even possible. His mouth was slightly open trying to catch as much breath as he can.
"Save him. Please" Zero begged to the pureblood, who was trying to calm everyone in the room. The scent of blood drove them insane. It has been so long since they had drank any real blood. It was in their nature to want to drink blood.
"He has already lost too much blood, Zero. No mortal can stay alive after loosing such amount of blood. I am surprised he is actually breathing at all" Cross responded. Since he was never a vampire the blood did not appealed to him.
"I can't loose him. He is my dad" tears slid down Zero's cheek at the simple thought of loosing his father forever. "I can't"
Kaname stared at Zero's heartbreaking expression. It pained him to see the ex-human like that. Sadly, Cross was right. No mortal could survive such conditions. It surprised Kaname that the old man survived this long. There was only one way but he did not want to force that upon the poor man. He has already faced too much.
"I'm sorry, Zero" it was the only thing Kaname could think of to comfort the silverette. It was not enough.
"Kaname. You have to save him. Please" Kaname read Zeros eyes like a book. Was Zero really expecting him to...? No. Zero wouldn't want that for his dad. Wouldn't he?
"You can't seriously be suggesting that I do that" Kaname did not want to do something that Zero might regret later.
"Please. I can't just let him die. You have to understand" Zero pleaded.
"I can't just turn your father into what we are, Zero. Do you really think that this is what he wants? To be turned into a bloodsucking beast. I will not allow that" Kaname stated.
"Kaname..."the pleading look on Zero's face was too much for Kaname to take. Those amethyst eyes were screaming at him to help his father. His entire body was shaking from all the pain he was going trough. His mouth was barely open, sobs escaping from it from time to time. Kaname would do anything to stop all the pain. "Alright"
Kaname mover forward to the barely alive man and leaned his head so he could reach his neck. "Mother. Father. Keep everyone under control" Kaname said before sinking his teeth into the flesh. He made sure not to sink his whole fangs since they were obviously overgrown. He pulled away quick after making sure that the vampire DNA was now inside of Taki. "He should be fine once he wakes up"
Zero sighed in relief at the news.
"Thank God" was the comment that came out of the ex-human.
"Let's get your father into one if the rooms. He needs to rest right now" Kaname told Zero before turning his gaze to the villagers. "I expect you to leave my castle now. We will meet again to discuss all the unnecessary damage you have caused"
The villagers did not need to be told twice. They left the castle without saying a single word. Kaname picked up Taki, supporting him with one arms while Zero supported the other. The staff stayed downstairs to clean up the mess while Juri and Yuki helped the injured ones.
Kaname led Zero to his won private room, where the rose was located, and laid Taki on the old bed. Kaname took the opportunity to share a glance at the rose. The once beautiful rose had only three petals left. The rest of those petals were long gone by now alongside some of Kaname's own energy. The room started spinning for the pureblood and voices could be heard inside his head.
'Your time is almost up'
It was the enchantress who kept saying those words over and over again. Kaname sat on the floor, his large hand covering his face in frustration. It was no use. Those three petals will fall in no time. He will be stuck like that forever.
He felt his eyelids getting heavy. Tiredness took over his entire body as one of the three petals fell. Zero seemed to notice that and sat besides the pureblood.
"Are you ok?" the silver haired boy asked the beastly vampire.
Kaname looked at Zero. "Is over for me, Zero" his hairy hand brushed one of Zero's silver strands off his face. "I will stay like this forever"
Zero's eyes widened at Kaname's statement. Over? It couldn't be over. They had just defeated Rido. They ha just saved his father. It cannot be over. Zero would not accept that.
"There has to be a way to stop this. Anything"
"There is" Kaname responded. "However, I cannot say what is the solution. I am forbidden to say it. So there is no way" Kaname's eyes began falling closed.
Zero was now panicking. Why could Kaname just tell him the solution? He couldn't let the pureblood go.
"Dammit, Kaname. Stay with me" Zero tried but it was no use. Kaname's eyes were closed, but Zero could tell that he was still conscious.
"I love you, Zero" Kaname whispered before falling unconscious. Zero felt a warm feeling in his stomach at the saying of those words. Those wonderful words that he has been waiting far too long to hear.
Zero stared at the rose. It only had one petal left. That petal was the symbol of Kaname's humanity. He can't let it go to waste. But there was nothing he could do. His time was over. There was only one thing that Zero could do.
"I love you too" Zero softly said. He embraced the pureblood tightly. "I don't care if you stay like this. I love you, Kaname"
A bright light surrounded the room after Zero said those words. What seemed like a thousand stars gathered until they became one bright light, so much like the sun. It did not feel hot nor cold. It was a neutral feeling. Coming out from the mystic light was now a beautiful woman.
"Do you really mean what you say?" the lady asked, her voice was very soft.
Zero knew what she was talking about. Of course he meant what he said. He loved Kaname. Even after the way their relationship started he still fell in love with the beastly pureblood.
"Of course I do"
A soft smile crossed her beautiful face as she turned her attention to the rose. The flower still had one petal left.
"That's all I need to know" she said before she began chanting some words. Red dust flowed all the way from the nearly dead rose to the unconscious Kaname, entering his body. Zero stared in amazement as that happened.
"Who are you?" the silverette asked.
"I think we both know, Zero" the woman kept chanting words. Soon, Zero felt some of his energy leaving his body. He fell on the floor besides Kaname and let the blissful darkness take over him for now.
"Everything will be ok once you wake up" the enchantress aid while she picked up the rose. "Good job Kaname Kuran"
There was no sign of the enchantress after that...
Zero felt strong arms holding him tightly as his head rested on something rather comfortable. Feeling a heartbeat he looked up. He stared in amazement at the young man before him. Curly brown, curly shoulder-length hair covered part of that extremely handsome face. The pale skin, tanner than his own, was completely flawless. Not a single blemish could be spotted. The man was wearing ripped clothing that looked a lot like Kaname's.
'It can't be' Zero thought as he saw the male once again. The man looked familiar. It was like he has seemed him in some place.
He heard a tiny groan coming from the man as eyelids parted, showing a pair of beautiful hazel eyes.
"Zero?" the man mumbled. His was just like Kaname's, only more smooth. Then it hit Zero. The ripped portrait in the room. The man in the portrait shared the same features as this one. And Kaname told him that it was no other person than himself.
"Kaname?" Zero showed a bit of hesitation in his voice. He was not so sure if this was Kaname.
His moved his hand to touch Kaname's face but he backed away.
"Zero. Is me" the man told Zero, intertwining his hand with Zero's. The familiar feeling of the closeness between the two of them made Zero realize that it was indeed Kaname.
"You are..."Zero was in awe. Kaname was fully human now. Well, a human looking vampire.
"Human, Zero. Thanks to you" Kaname smiled as he saw confusion in Zero's face. "You were the solution, Zero. My solution. Only love could break the spell. Only you were crazy enough to fall in love with a beast"
"And only you are crazy enough to fall in love with a moody ex-human" Zero replied to Kaname's last comment.
"Probably"
They looked at eachother for what seemed like forever. Unspoken words were easily know trough the eye contact as unknown feelings were felt trough one simple touch. Their head got closer. They could already feel each of their breaths so close, noses now touching. Kaname ran his free hand trough Zero's soft hair as he pulled the silver haired boy closer until their lips meshed together.
It was soft at first, no tongue or anything. They justs duties the feeling of the other's soft lips. Eyes closed at the new sensation that ran trough their bodies. Sweet was not enough though. Hot desire took over them. Kaname ran his tongue on Zero's lower lip, which was opened in an instant to let Kaname's muscle roam free around his wet cavern. Tongue crashed together in a battle in which Kaname won...not that Zero was complaining or anything. The silver haired boy moan into the kiss. They broke apart at the need of oxygen, both panting.
Zero saw something new in Kaname's eyes. There was nothing more than lust. Without any warning Kaname scooped Zero up.
"What are you doing?" Zero asked surprised.
"Taking this to somewhere more private" Kaname's eyes were on Taki, who was still unconscious in the same bed.
"Oh"
Kaname, using his vampire speed, ran with Zero to his main bedroom. He laid Zero in the big bed. He watched as the silverette's beautiful lilac eyes turned into a deep, crimson red of desire. Kaname began undoing Zero's shirt, hands traveling to the pink nipples that were begging to be touched. While Kaname's mouth sucked the left nipple his hand was playing with the other one, making both nipples really hard.
Zero moaned at the breathtaking sensations. His hands gripped the sheets as Kaname's free hand traveled to his pants. He teased Zero's erection with his index finger, loving the reaction he got from Zero.
"Don't...tease...me" Zero managed to say.
Kaname stopped his actions and removed Zero's pants, tossing them somewhere in the room. He could now perfectly see Zero's hard erection throbbing inside the underwear. He could feel himself getting hard as well.
Zero's hands traveled to his ripped shirt, removing it in a matter of seconds. His gaze was now on the pureblood's perfectly toned chest. He trailed his slender hands over Kaname's muscle lines. The pureblood had no excess muscles but he definitely had them. Kaname took Zero's hands in his own and kissed his palms. He then proceeded to remove the rest of Zero's clothing with eagerness and fascination. He stared at the beautiful mess he made. Lust filled violet eyes stared directly at him, a blush was adorning his pale features. His silver hair was a mess but at the moment it could not look any better. Lips were slightly opened, his nipples were hard an his erection was sinking back in misery. Kaname could easily have an orgasm by just starring at the boy. He would not do that whatsoever.
Kaname removed his own remaining clothing, the cool breeze was now hitting his fully exposed cock. Zero was now scared. Kaname's cock was huge. He breathed in and out, trying to calm himself, but had no avail. This was going to be his real first time with somebody he cared about. He did not know what to do right now.
Kaname put his fingers in Zero's mouth expecting the ex-human to suck on them. Zero got in the idea and let his tongue grace the pureblood's fingers. After some time licking and sucking Kaname pulled his fingers out of the mouth.
Kaname positioned his index ginger at Zero's entrance.
"Relax. It will feel weird at first but it will be all better in the end" Kaname kissed Zero's forehead. Zero nodded and shut his eyes to await the upcoming intrusion.
The uncomfortable feeling came. Zero had to bite his own lips to prevent any noise that would make Kaname uneasy come out. The digit moved inside of him in a slow, circle motion as it slowly stretched Zero. Seeing that Zero already got used to the first digit he added a second one, doing the same. It was a bit more painful this time but Zero could live with it. The pain was barely there when a third digit was inserted and hit a certain spot in Zero's body that made his head fall back. Kaname had just found Zero's sweet spot.
"Keep...go-going" Zero ordered. Kaname obeyed the command, hitting the spot over and over again until he couldn't take it anymore.
He removed his fingers, licking some of Zero's internal juices. Zero blushed deep red at Kaname's action.
"Don't do that" Zero said.
Kaname raised his eyebrow.
"And why do you ask that? You taste rather delicious" the comment made Zero blush increase.
"It's gross"
"You could never be gross, Zero" Kaname told the silver haired boy, lacing their hands together as Kaname positioned himself for the main event.
Zero gasped as the head of Kaname's cock invaded him, tears coming out of his eyes. He blinked them away. Kaname deserved that much. It didn't go unnoticed by Kaname though.
"Do you want to stop?" Kaname asked. It would take a lot from his to stop just like that but if he had to then he would.
Zero shook his head at the pureblood.
Kaname proceed, sliding his cock fully in. He stopped for some time for Zero to adjust, even if the tightness from Zero's body was driving him insane.
"Move" Zero ordered once again.
Kaname didn't need to be told twice as he began moving inside of Zero. Zero buckled his hips so Kaname could move better, his legs wrapped around Kaname's waist and his arms were around his neck for better support.
Zero's moans were music in Kaname's ear. It just kept getting better as they continued with their erotic dance. Kaname was not a big fan of anything warm but Zero was an exception. Zero heat felt so good. It seemed almost impossible that such pleasurable things even exists.
Kaname kissed Zero on the lips when he knew that he found Zero's spot once again. He knew it when Zero's grip around his neck became stronger. He pounded faster and harder into that spot. He could sense that Zero's climax was approaching.
"Kaname!" Zero screamed as he shot his sticky release in his and Kaname's stomaches.
The simple sight of his lover releasing was a pure peace of art. Zero's flushed, sweaty face held a pleasant expression, his arms loosing their hold on Kaname's neck and gripping the sheets tightly. And that scream. Kaname would do anything to hear Zero scream his name in nothing but pure pleasure once again.
His own climax approached as he filled Zero with his seed.
He pulled out of Zero, both panting at their previous activities. Still, after finishing what they were doing, Kaname and Zero felt a void. Both their eyes turned red. They were both longing to drink eachother's blood, forming a blond bond between the two of them.
"Drink my blood now" Kaname commanded Zero.
"Are you sure that it will be ok? I mean, you just turned human"
"I'm sure, Zero. Besides, in order to turn everyone in the castle human we need to form a blood bond" Kaname explained.
"Oh"
Zero licked his lips in anticipation. His face got closer to Kaname's neck. He licked the area where the jugular is suppose to be before sinking his fangs and drinking a bit from Kaname's red fluid. Zero pulled away, not wanting to risk any chance to injure the pureblood. As he said before, Kaname had just turned human for less than a day.
Now it was Kaname's turn. As he took the first sip a huge spark could be felt all around the area. The darkness in the room was replaced by light. Every staff member and Kaname's family turned human. He devil-like statues turned into angel-like ones. The messy forbidden room was fixed and Taki opened his eyes.
Kaname pulled away from Zero. He noticed that the silverette was now asleep. He covered the teen with a blanket before dressing himself in his human clothes that Shizuka had prepared for him just in case.
He went downstairs where he wa sgreeted by his overjoyed family accompanied by a fully awake Taki.
"You did it!" Yuki ran over to Kaname to give his older brother a hug, Juri and Haruka walking behind her to do the same.
"You are wrong, Yuki. We did it" Kaname said, referring to him and Zero.
"Where is my son?" Taki asked.
"He is upstairs. He is rather tired from all that has happened"Kaname told the old man, who just nodded and stayed silent.
"I am deeply sorry for the rough start, Taki. I will make sure that it won't happen again" Kaname held his hand out to Taki, who shook it.
"Just make sure that my son stays safe"
"I will"
The answer pleased Taki. He went to explore what he knew that it would become his new home.
"We are so proud of you, son" Juri told her son. Haruka stared at Kaname with a prideful expression written in his handsome face.
"You should not be proud of me. It is Zero the one that you should be thankful for" Kaname responded.
"We will, son. As for now, we need to think on getting all the lands of the kingdom back" Haruka reminded his son. It would not be easy but they all knew it was possible. The villagers owed those lands to Kaname anyway.
"I know"
Every person in the castle went to celebrate the breaking of the curse when Zero woke up. The silverette was more than happy when he saw his dad alive. Kaname went to the village and reclaimed what was his. The villagers where more than happy to have Kaname as their ruler. But not everything in life is perfect and noone new that a new war was about to start...
FIN...for now
I think this was the longest chapter I've ever wrote for this story.
I bet that you are wondering why I did not put other characters like Aido, Takuma, etc. Well, I am planning on putting them on the sequel so at least they will appear. I hope that you all liked the ending and the crappy lemon I wrote. I was planning on making Taki die but then I decided against it. Let him be happy with his son ;) I want you to send your reviews and offer me the opinion of this story was a whole, not this chapter only. It would be greatly appreciated.
First ten reviews will get a preview to the upcoming sequel. I am also working on a one-shot but I'm not sure when to finish it or to upload it. I actually have a life now...not so good though.
So...this is it. This is the end of Blood Rose. Goodbye my friends. Thank you once again for all the support.
Love,
Redmoon1997
