POSSESSION

by Revolverhades12

Those glassy yet scornful lilac orbs…

He wanted to own it.

The silky yet messy silver locks crowning his head…

He wanted to run it through his fingers.

And certainly, the unseen brawny muscle under those black uniforms…

He wanted to touch it.

He wanted to posses them all… outside and inside. How he longed to feel them in a heated and dark night. Tangling between the sheets, inhaling the dubious and sinful breaths of each other…

Kuran Kaname opened his eyes slowly. Faint knocks echoed in his dim room. Seiren. What could she have at this early evening? She wouldn't have interrupt his slumber unless-

"Come in."

The stoic servant entered obediently and bowed before him. Kaname waited patiently for her to spill the information.

"There's a massive attacks from Level Es and Kiryuu was sent to settle them down for good. Unfortunately, the attackers seemed to expand unexpectedly than what the Hunter's association got in the report when they sent Kiryuu alone for the mission," she said clearly.

Kaname inhaled an amount of oxygen to calm himself. Zero could be in worst condition any minute by now.

He jumped off his bed at once while throwing in his usual black shirt and long trench coat over his well-built body. Hurriedly, he dashed out the Kuran Mansion and called out the driver.

Kaname watched along the road where lamps were just lit up, indicating the beginning of vampire night. He didn't know since when he started to poke his nose into Zero's business but he'll get all the hunter's activities through Seiren.

He didn't even know since when he cared so much about Zero, how much he loved him. Even though he knew Zero wouldn't be in any way to accept his feelings, he could never bring himself to hate the young vampire. How ridiculous of me, with such a simple feeling… The pureblood laughed inwardly for being pathetic towards petty thing like this.

The car pulled up near an old and collapsed fort. Strong smell of blood clinging in the air but all Kaname could comprehend were Zero's own blood and his bland heartbeats. He sped up through the rubbles and debris of the building. Irony, it was quiet now that Kaname quicken his pace.

He came to a clearer compound, surrounded by fallen pillars and more remnants of the ruins. Nobody but Zero were there, lying flat on his stomach. Kaname supposed that Zero accomplished on getting rid of the Level Es until only their ashes were left there.

"Kiryuu…" the brunette called out plainly, trying hard to restrain the anxious that threat to crack up his voice. Seeing Zero torn up badly like that just made him wanted to jump to the hunter's side hastily.

"Heh…K..Kuran…You came so you can la…laugh at my sorry st…state? Shit…" Zero's voiced died in the middle of talking as blood spurted madly from his mouth and passed out. Kaname's eyes widened at the sight and picked the unconscious Zero into his arms without hesitation.

How could you still talk when you hurt so much? Guess you hate me that much, huh? Kaname thought silently while carrying Zero out of the abandoned building.

Heavy drops of clear water splattered on the windows, making them rattled a bit and occupied the silent room. The Kuran survival stared out in distant across the forest that surrounded his mansion. Then, he turned his head away, only to look at the person on the luxurious bed.

It's been two weeks now since Zero fell into comatose after the incident. He had took the weak body to his mansion, assuring and promised Kaien Cross that he'll take care of Zero, when the President of Hunter Association was informed about Zero's cataleptic condition.

Everyday he would feed the silverette his own blood, hoping he would wake up from this long dream. To his dismay, Zero didn't show any sign of consciousness. Maybe, just maybe, he didn't want to wake up at all. He's been in solitude and sorrow for an extent, an exchange to the strength he desired to fulfill his abhorrence and revenge- and survive. Maybe he just wanted to curl deep inside his soul and be caged in there.

Zero…

What will happen to me if you keep silent like this?

He stared at the limp body on the bed. His face was so serene that Kaname wonder if all his presumption had been right all this time. He couldn't imagine Zero's response when he woke up and find himself in this strange place.

The vampire brushed the young Hunter's hair softly and kissed his forehead passionately. He wished he could stay like this forever and make Zero his own, but not when Zero in this state. Like a lifeless doll.

No.

He wanted the frowning Zero, the angry Zero, the scowling Zero…the smiling Zero.

He laughed silently at the impossible thought. Wait, it's not impossible, just improbable. Still, if he wanted to see the smiling face, he had to stab himself and withered painfully. Only that will make the Level D smiled satisfyingly.

"I'm leaving for a while, Zero," Kaname whispered slowly at his left ear and rose from the thick mattress. He then fetched his black double-breasted coat before halting at the door.

"And Zero…I love you…"

With that, he left the mansion for his work. He just felt he must say it while he can. The conscious Bloody Rose gunner would beat him to pulp if he said it aloud.

Oh God, just give me a rest… The pureblood rubbed his temple and closed his eyes to forget the matter for a while.

Meanwhile, in the deserted room, another pair of eyes had slowly opened…
