Chapter 1 – Mind Wanderer

All my life, I just wanted more. My mind wanders; lusting for something else. Something greater, exciting – adventurous! I only want to get out of this insipid life of mine towards to some other place unknown, to travel and see the world, to meet new people, be surrounded by them and learn. And when I say learn, I don't mean algebra or science or English. I just wanted to learn more about the world – one that is far away from these wretched, poor squealing excuse of girls, the repetitive series of teenage dramas and of course, unnaturally gorgeous vampires.

Is that too much to ask for?

I clenched my jaw when my sister and I reached the back of what I would call - a horde of wild beasts on the time of their female heat.

''Oh man…'' My sister, Yuki, moaned, grabbing my arm and pulling me into a run. ''The girls are here before us! Come on, we got to stop them!''

I allowed myself to let out a small groan to at least indicate my total distaste of our job. My sister or my twin to be more specific, was a total softie. Too soft. If only she was a little bit more petulant or ungrateful (like me), we (or I) wouldn't be in this position every single day.

Our job?

Protecting the Night Class Students from the Day class students.

As if they need protecting… Actually, it was the other way around.

Our job was to ensure that these stupid little girls with no ounce of dignity would not throw themselves ready to eat onto these vampires' plates.

Yes. That's more like it.

Since I was being too slow for Yuki, my sister finally let go. ''Come on, Shizu!'' she shouted as she dashed away, desperately trying to go through the thick nest of skirts and hairs. I stopped and stared at her struggling form, silently pitying her and sighed.

The good sister in me wanted to rush in and help.

But the self-preserving part of me said to let my sister handle it. If lucky, the girls would settle themselves eventually or Zeno comes in and frighten them away.

I glanced up the round clock on the brick-walled gate. It wouldn't be long now.

''…You just want to monopolise everyone in Night Class,'' said one girl to my sister.

Oh, what a stupid little girl. Oh, how stupid and ugly her voice is. Oh, how I want to just….

''You may be the Head master's daughter but that's not fair!'' Another girl added.

I therefore conclude that girls like these are most likely to have the same level of IQ and thus, explains why they mostly complete their sentences. Yuki and I do it too sometimes.

But we're smart.

''That's not true! I'm from the Disciplinary Committee! Me, my sister and Zero!''

I sighed again, rooting for the pair of ear plugs hidden in my hoodie's pocket. Wearing the expression I've copied mostly from Zero, I strode towards the horde with an air of practised elegance – one of which I copied again from Zero and from various sources from the TV and books I've read.

Since I was wearing a skirt (with black leggings because I hate shaving my legs), I placed my hands inside the pocket of my hoodie instead. From my calculations, I believe this type of style gives the 'cool' look and adding the blank expression on my face, it should result to the 'move bitch get out the way' look.

Unfortunately, sometimes there are those dense creatures who can't read. I reached out and as gently as I could, shove the first girl out of my way.

''Hey!'' I pointedly ignore her and secretly relished at the way the other girls reluctantly removed themselves so I could get past. Of course, time after time, I get the braver ones that challenge me. But I learnt that the best way to handle them was not to handle them at all.

I overtook one girl and continued my way through without a word.

They really were a horde of animals, I thought as I watch many of them sneering and baring their teeth at me. When I reached the very front, the sound of yowling increased, making me grit my teeth in annoyance.

Personally, I wouldn't mind these girls' passion and endless energy but since I was the one always being harassed by them, I couldn't help but hate them all. Not to mention, I had the whole day of class and now of Night duty.

How the hell does Kaien, the chairman and our father, thinks we can get rest and live a life like this?!

The towering metal gates groaned as they start to open. I blinked and turned to glance over my shoulder, surprised when all the girls formed a line on each side of the road after a whistle.

Heh…I glanced to my sister, seeing her jaw dropped. I crossed the distance between us and finally noticed that there was no sign of our platinum-haired friend around.

Late again…

I let myself smile at Yuki's cuteness and closed her mouth for her before dragging her by the sleeve to get out of the way.

The girls, of course, sighed at the new sight, covering the sound of my own exhausted one. My eye twitched before I endeavoured to focus my attention solely on admiring the peach-coloured sky above the lively trees. The Night Class students, handsome and gorgeous as they were, were simply too beautiful and bright for my poor, tired eyes to look at.

This may hint to some people that I'm jealous but I know I'm not. Unlike other girls, I know I'm fairly pretty. I received compliments about this quite a lot of times too -mostly from our 'father' – the chairman of the academy (which apparently shouldn't count according to some people – just Zero) and from the vendors from the market (even though he says they're just flattering me into buying their wares).

But I'm not blind. I find myself cute and pretty too.

That confidence was enough for me.

Sometimes, I just don't bother, you know. But when I do? Huh.

I took a deep breath and promptly coughed, realising my mistake when I was assaulted with an array of scents - sweat and the overly expensive perfumes that the girls use to cover themselves with and from the vampires, a nearly imperceptible metallic smell of blood.

This made me wonder a little (which is always good as it helps to distract me from the current happenings of this world). I don't think these Night Class students would breach any rules (drinking from humans) without us being informed about it as Kaname, the leader of these vampires, surely wouldn't allow this to happen. Thus, these leaves my conclusion that blood tablets must smell like blood and/or these folks drink from each other.

I nodded absently before grimacing at the vivid image that popped into my head. I bit my lip and fought to remain the passive expression on my face.

Is it Kaname and Takuma together?

I tightened my lips in an effort to stop myself from grinning like a maniac.

Hanabusa and Takuma? How about Akatsuki? But he's so hot and manly! No way! If he was though…He'd probably be with…This is something to think about later when I'm alone.

I groaned silently when one of the girls bumped onto my shoulder, kyaaing and howling as she passed. My sister fell on the floor but she didn't move to stand up by herself so I let her. Poor big sis probably was too tired to handle any more.

I understood the feeling. Just watching these girls drain me out of my energy.

Together, we stared at the crowd of desperate girls and the single arm that was popping out from the middle.

''Bang! Bang! Bang!'' It was the blonde-haired idiot – Hanabusa Aido. If only he doesn't encourage these girls by his winks and cringy pick-up lines, maybe there would be more peace in this school.

I saw him approaching at the corner of my eye and as usual, I felt the atmosphere change around us. That slow gait and those red-brown eyes failed not to make me feel on edge every time.

He was not the Darcy of my dreams – no, that role is taken by Zero, nor he was a Romeo – for Romeo's a lovesick idiot who Hanabusa reminds me of many times but Kaname…

Is an animal – a lion since he is basically the King of Night Class. Beautiful to look at from a safe distance but frightening outside their cages.

He wasn't Dracula either since he doesn't have brides…

Still, I can't help that every time he speaks to me or to my sister or whenever he's near, my heartbeat would accelerate and my stomach would flip like crazy. This would have made me think I was having a romantic fit if not also for my urge to run away from him and the fact that he gives me goose-bumps.

''Yuki…'' I turned and watched as Kaname offered a hand to my sister which after a moment, my sister received. Kaname's eyes flitted up to mine, frozen in that fragile smile he always wore in front of us. ''Shizu.'' I nodded in recognition whilst forcing my shoulders to relax.

Can he hear heart-beats too? I wondered.

Deciding to give the two some space (and because watching my own sister make puppy dog eyes towards Kuran was really making me uncomfortable), I turned halfway around, mindful not to turn my back on the Pureblood vampire in case he interprets it as rudeness, and turned my head towards the other girls who all looked awfully similar to each other for me. I clenched my jaw at their sharp stares.

Troublesome…I could already hear them telling us to stay away from their Kaname-sama. Amazing how these girls claim one person as theirown. I guess that's teamwork for them.

''Keep up the good work, Yuki, Shizu.'' I gave him a twitchy smile and looked away, watching my sister fidget from the corner of my eyes.

Come on, sis! Out with it!

''It's nothing…'' Yuki's replied softly. Then, as if regaining her sense of self, ''it's my job as part of the Disciplinary committee!'' A hand grabbed my arm and forced me into the conversation. ''Our job, actually! Right, Shizu?''

''Yeah.'' All I wanted was to have a peaceful life here in the academy, graduate with good grades and get out.

I roamed my eyes to our surroundings, eager to get myself out of the tough situation and caught a rather wonderful sight of the dying sunlight falling in beams among the copse of trees. My fingers twitched and I stared at the beautiful sight, trying to imprint it to memory.

''—Shizu?'' I blinked and turned towards the muffled sound of my name. The earplugs felt a tad uncomfortable in my earms.

''Huh?'' Kaname smiled patiently.

''Are you alright with this, Shizu?''

Slightly surprised that he was striking a conversation with me even with this attitude on (not like I was never with attitude), I turned my attention back at him. ''Alright with what?''

''Guarding us. I heard you've been having bad dreams as of late.'' he repeated, voice mellow and eyes softening even further. He took a step forward, causing a wave of his scent to hit me square on the face – strong and masculine.

Swallowing spit to wet my throat, I forced myself to look at him straight in the eye because Yuki's grip on my arm tightened telling me silently that I had to answer him and look at him straight in the eyes for politeness' sake.

''No. I'm fine. Thank you…Kaname-senpai.'' That's good enough, right?

His eyes flickered before he smiled gently once again. ''I'm glad.''

I managed to unglue my eyes from his and gave him a grateful smile – one that I've practised many times in front of the mirror. ''Thank you, senpai.''

Kaname glanced at my sister then to me. It must be hard, I thought. To converse with two people at the same time, all the while making sure one gives the two equal attention. ''I wish you two wouldn't be so formal.''

''Uh…'' Yuki shook her head. Meanwhile, I controlled my face to avoid it contorting into a scowl when my sister's hands gripped my arm even tighter. I could feel multiple gazes behind our backs but Yuki seemed oblivious to this and was still taking her time.

Nee-chan…Seriously? Out with it, come on! Tell him you like him already so we can get over this awkward stuff!

''I…We owe you our lives, Kaname-senpai. So, we are forever grateful about that.'' Yuki said, sounding so sincere that I instantly felt guilty.

Hearing her like this, made me a little guilty. It felt like I wasn't grateful enough for him rescuing us many years ago. But I know I do. I just hate remembering that particular night when I woke up in a middle of nowhere with an unfamiliar girl clutching my arm tightly and a vampire hell-bent on feasting on us.

My left arm throbbed in remembrance.

I screamed as the man grabbed me by the arm, pulling me closer to his awaiting mouth. Two sharp and protruding fangs gleamed in the night stained with something crimson…blood, it was. He was grinning; his eyes red, evil and empty. I grabbed a hold of his hair and tried pushing his face away but the vampire let out a cold cackle before he lunged at the inside of my arm that which he was holding.

I stifled a gasp when a hand fell on my head; eyes pulled back to reality and towards his. ''Don't worry about it.'' He said to me, voice deceivingly soft in my ears; always calm and never faltering. The hand the fell down and caressed my cheek. ''It was so long ago.'' He said, holding my gaze. I breathed in slowly. He smells nice… I leaned in, wanting to get close and perhaps rest my head against—

I froze, eyes snapping open in alarm. Our eyes met again. He smiled gently as if he was a parent saying; 'I understand…' to a belligerent child. I stepped back and he lifted his hand up, finally letting go. As if on a cue, I became very aware of my surroundings once again. The cool evening air brushed past us, tickling every exposed skin. The eyes on my back felt unbearable.

I saw flash of white hair. It was Zero, striding towards us and I nearly sighed in relief.

''Zero. You're late.'' I called then bowed to the vampire, still feeling rather uneasy from his past spell. ''Excuse me, Kaname-senpai.'' I murmured and casually passed him to meet the white-haired boy halfway before he could attack the leader of Night Class as I can see him doing judging from that look in his eyes. I glared at him. No.

His lips tightened. ''Class is starting, Mr. Kuran. Please get to your classes.'' Zero snapped, voice sharp like the wind in a winter storm. The result was instantaneous. All their eyes glared coldly to Zero and because I was standing close to him, I felt them too.

Oh come on…

I turned around and faced the remaining day class girls in the vicinity.

''Fangirl time is over! Hurry up and go back to your dorms!'' My voice was thankfully loud and commanding enough to attract their attention. My eyes fell on the two girls closest to me. ''Do your business now and leave. If we see you in the area after curfew, I'm sure Zero and I are creative enough to come up with a punishment.'' I narrowed my eyes and curled my lips into a disdainful sneer as I emphasised punishment with promise.

Much to my disappointment though, I still lack the fear factor that would cause all the girls to scream and run away. But at least, almost all of them started to walk away. Some looked disappointed, taking lingering glimpses at the Night class and shooting me daggers with their eyes whilst others looked satisfied at having basked in their presence and started to leave slowly. It made me bite at the inside of my cheek.

They make easy targets for these vampires.

''Ah…Please, Kaname-sama, will you take these presents from me?'' Two girls handed him a flower and a small purple pot of whatever. My eyes moved to Yuki's slouched shoulders and saw her clasping her hands together against her chest with a hopeful look on her face that made my chest tighten and burn.

''Of course, thank you,'' was his polite response.

Zero shifted and seeing the groups of remaining Day class girls, ''WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?! LEAVE!''

I rolled my eyes and silently congratulated myself for having the foresight of wearing earplugs. If I hadn't, I would have hurt my eardrums right there and then, and I'd be deaf by the time I was 40. I carefully started removing my earplug, smiling lightly upon finally hearing the faint singing of birds and the sound of trees brushing against each other.

''How scary, Mr. Disciplinary Committee.'' This time, I paused, feeling the chill in the vampire's tone. He has always been colder to Zeno and most often, they both ignored each other's existence after a polite greeting (from Kaname).

But my white-haired doesn't really invite good conversations with vampires since he loathed every single one of them. Understandable since his family was attacked by vampires when he was 8. He lost so much then.

Red-brown eyes flitted to mine for a second and I straightened up a little under his careful gaze. There was a flash of emotion in his eyes – so quick but I saw it nonetheless.

This again proved why I was correct in being cautious with the man.

He wasn't frowning. His lips didn't tighten. His eyes remained forever soft and distant. His gait, slow; his posture was the same. No muscle on his face was out of place.

But he was angry.

The wind blew at us and soon the path was empty.

The Night class has begun.

''I need a drink.'' I said and walked towards the Headmaster's office where we were summoned. Zero and Yuki followed behind me and I quickened my steps to get away from their conversation about my sister's unrequited love.

I hear it all the time that I could predict what's to come next. If she liked him so much, why not go ahead and say it? It's obvious as hell that he adores her. At least, it would save me from all these lingering glances and puppy dog looks from my sister. It felt really wrong to me for some reason. Which is weird for me because I was a fan of romance and all that geez (so long as there's a great plot).

And I really was thirsty as hell.

I contentedly lied on the sofa with my head on the hand rest. I closed my eyes, trying to block Zero's complaints about the world. My eyes felt incredibly sore and Yuki was taking so long to make the hot chocolate.

I placed my hand over my heated eyes. Father has warned me about reading too many books from the internet many times before but it never really bothered me much until…recently when my eyes were beginning to water on their own time to time.

''…Shizu? Are you alright, dear?''

''Yes, dad. Just fine.''

I lifted my hand away from my eyes when I heard him push back his chair and treaded towards me; his feet muffled by the carpet. Eventually, I felt his shadow and I had no choice but acknowledge him. I peered at him from above, flinching slightly when my eyes caught the light. Kaien knelt before the sofa and I sat up, facing him.

I rubbed my eyes. ''I'm fine.'' I said again and paused when I felt his hand on my hand.

''May I see?'' He asked, brown eyes gentle. He removed my hand from my face, holding it between his larger ones on my lap.

My heart warmed without permission when the chairman tucked a stray hair behind my ear. Unlike my sister, I love Kaien. Well, I know Yuki loves Kaien too but not like I always have. For me, this man…was my father. Hence, why I call him dad. But of course, my sister needs to be specific and remind us every time that he wasn't really our father.

Well, whoever that father was, he certainly wasn't there the night I had a crazy vampire sucking on my arm, was he?

''Your eyes look very red, Shizu.'' Kaien commented and gently thumbed my closed lids. ''Have you been reading too much again? I told you books are better than those from the screen! If you're not careful, you'll end up wearing glasses like your Otou-san!''

I couldn't really let myself care about that. ''I love reading.'' And it was true. There was no day or night that I didn't open a book, except in my sleep.

He chuckled. ''I know, Shizu-chan.'' He patted my hair fondly. Then, suddenly, he stood. ''That's why! I bought you something!''

I straightened up in my seat and my eyes widened, already anticipating my gift. Oooh…Gifts! I wonder what it is this time…

Kaien, back to his bubbly self, beckoned me forwards, grinning from ear to ear.

''Is it a book again?'' Zero drawled. ''She's spending so much time drooling over her books. Sometimes I even catch her kissing them.''

My eye twitched. ''Shut up, Zero. Those books are way hotter than anyone in this school.''

His eyebrow rose. ''Really?''

''Who's hotter?'' Yuki smiled sweetly at us as she slipped into the room while holding a tray of steaming hot chocolate with a bowl of marshmallows.

''That hot chocolate and those lovely marshmallows.'' I licked my lips, frowning slightly at their soreness. They've been so dry and sensitive nowadays.

Yuki's laughed. ''Okay. Okay. Here it is, Ms. Sweet-tooth.''

Biting my lip, I eagerly helped my sister with the tray and carefully placed it on Kaien's desk. I took my very special mug – blue and white with my name on it and took a careful sip. ''Uhm.'' I moaned. ''Thanks Yuki!'' I smiled.

''…I swear. You only smile at your sweets.'' Yuki said.

''I smile all the time.''

''Not like when you're eating chocolates though.'' She retorted back. ''If you smile more maybe you'll get-'' Yuki paused and softened her voice as if to make sure it doesn't sound like an insult. ''…more friends, you know?''

''I have you and Zero.'' I took a sip again and popped a marshmallow inside my mouth, closing my eyes and savouring the taste.

''But I'm your sister-''

''And my best friend.''

That shut her up and I didn't have to look to see she was feeling guilty. I silently sighed. Yuki feels guilty a lot. I know that I am only her twin sister. The title 'best friend' belonged to Sayori who was also her room-mate.

''…You're…You're my best friend too, Shizu. Truly.'' She said and I opened my eyes and gave her a small wink.

And she's not a good liar.

Kaien behind me coughed. He, too, was nursing his own mug already – green and white with Dad imprinted on it. I remember him curling himself on the floor, bawling like a baby when he received the gift from myself on his birthday. And he didn't stop hugging me to death that time. I admit that even he was literally cutting off my air supply, I enjoyed it.

Then, shortly after his birthday, he surprised us all by giving us similar mugs which are all colour coded and with our names written on them. Blue for me, pink for Yuki, lilac for Zero and black for Kaname-senpai.

The only mistake he said was telling everyone – including Kaname that it was my idea. It resulted to me being assaulted by a dazzling smile and a Thank you from the vampire which was dangerous because he did it after requesting we talk alone. Not like we were really alone though. The walls have eyes and the trees have ears and all that…

I took a sip once again and ate another blob of marshmallow.

''I'm entrusting this mission to you three. After all…There are no one else! No one else in this academy who I trust the most but my daughters and my son.''

*Boom!*

''Zero!'' Yuki shouted at the same time as I jumped to my feet, hurrying to catch the marshmallows before they hit the floor.

''I am grateful for taking me in, headmaster. But I don't remember myself becoming your son.'' I glared up at my friend.

''You're angry about that you'd break the table?''

He seem to realise this and blinked in shock. His mouth parted and then closed. He turned to Yuki as if for support. My sister only blushed. ''I don't really mind. I know how important this is for you, chairman. And I think your aim is really noble.''

Yeah…Maybe she just wants to spend more time with a certain vampire. Maybe it's not too late for me to back out? I could say that I'd be too busy with my sword practise and swimming?

Zero only scoffed. ''They're vampires! Monsters in human form. You really think we can coexist?'' He asked and none of us answered. I simply rolled my eyes.

Not this again, I thought dejectedly and ate another marshmallow.

But to my surprise, Yuki did not argue with Zero this time. A moment of silence passed before Zeno turned around and left. ''I'm going.''

''—Zeno!''

''East-south perimeter, I know.''

Yuki met my eyes with a hopeful expression that I didn't answer. I reached for another marshmallow. ''West-south, yes.''

Yuki's eyes flickered with something akin to disappointment. ''Okay. I'm north.'' She nodded and replaced her unfinished beverage back at the tray. ''See you later?''

I nodded and sipped my drink. When she was at the door, I called. ''Yuki.'' She turned her head over her shoulder to look at me.

''Hm?''

''Take care.''

Yuki smiled, kinder this time. I stiffened when Kaname's face flooded my mind. I fought a shiver and the cold that enveloped my hands and feet. I tightened my fingers around my mug to prevent myself shaking. The door closed with a soft clack.

''Shizu?''

''Hm?'' I schooled my features and looked down to my father's solemn face.

''Is there something you want to tell me?'' He asked and I tilted my head to the side at the strange question. ''Something bothering my daughter, perhaps?''

I smirked. ''You know, I know you're using the daughter card right?''

Now it was time for him to tilt his head as in faux-confusion. ''Whatever for?'' his voice rose a single tune. He was acting.

I sighed and watched my reflection from my beverage. ''I've been having nightmares, dad.'' I started and his silence encouraged me to continue. ''Nothing important though. Most of the time I forget what was about but…''

I always wake up, sweating and oddly scared of something; my throat and mouth dried up and my whole body heavy with lethargy.

''But?''

I met his eyes beneath from his glasses – glasses without even a grade on them. According to him, it keeps him on style and that he has always been jealous of people with glasses on.

''…But nothing. Nothing new, dad.''

''Dad won't force his daughter anything if his dear daughter don't want to.'' I gave him a blank stare as he suddenly adopted his foolish daddy persona. ''I mean… daddy is just concerned but daddy knows how dreams work especially for teenagers, you know-''

''Dad!'' He chuckled and I flicked his forehead in retribution. ''I'm not having wet dreams!''

He raised a hand. ''Please daughter, daddy doesn't want to hear!''

I smirked. ''Ah… Fine then. In one of my dreams, I dreamt about this hunky man with an eight-pack abs, strong arms, holding me tight against his taut—''

''Ah! LOOK! I nearly forgot your gift, dear daughter! He-he-he.''

I won.

He stood up then opened a long drawer. With an excited smile, he brought out the badly-wrapped gift and placed it on his table. ''I have lots of extra papers and decided to recycle it, you see!'' he motioned his hand over his masterpiece.

Even with the wrapping, I could tell that it was a Katana. I beamed and with his permission, I excitedly unwrapped his gift, struggling slightly with the numerous tapes he used to secure the paper.

And it was a Katana!

I let myself gasp, eyes wide as I grasp the handle. Slowly, I pulled off the leather sheath and watched my own eyes staring back at me from the blade.

''I noticed today that you weren't carrying your bokken, Shizu.'' He said whilst I was still busy admiring the sharp blade. ''I hope you don't forget it?''

''Of course not. I was going to get it during patrol. I don't want the day class seeing them. Though, I could always say it's for practise…'' I mused out loud. ''It could totally be used as additional fear factor.''

He let out a short laugh. ''Fear factor?''

I nodded. ''You know how Zero's so good at intimidating people, right? For some reason, they don't fear me as much as they do with him.''

''…Do you want to be feared, Shizu?''

I looked up, recognising the sudden gravity in his tone. He didn't like the idea, it seemed. ''Is that a problem?''

He stared at me for a few seconds. And in those few moments, he didn't look nor feel like my father. ''Fear… can make even the strongest lonely, Shizu.''

''…I have you, Yuki and Zero. I'm not lonely.'' I simply answered and I was relieved when he finally smiled.

''Though you still need to practise with your Bokken daily of course. You will not, please, Shizu, you will not use the Katana without my supervision, yes?''

Why give it to me now then!

''You'll practise with me every day at 6:00 in the morning. But on duty and on patrols, it needs to sheathed unless in grave danger, Shizu.''

I grinned, uncaring if the look was a little bit manic this time. ''In grave danger. I can do that.''

''Ah…Maybe I should've waited for her birthday?'' Kaien slumped in his seat after his daughter kissed him good night. He felt like he just did something that could potentially be…endangering but he just cannot help it! When he found his old Katana in his attic, he thought exactly of her and he just knew she would've loved it.

And she did. His daughter lit up like a child on Christmas day and he wished he had the sense to procure a camera to take a picture.

But then, her smile in the end made him a little nervous. He knew that despite her small size, his daughter was a little wild girl. She has always been eager to learn and can be rather aggressive in training.

It was in her blood. But then again, Yuki doesn't fight like that. His other daughter is just as determined, yes, but…Yuki was never the one to sought him out and drag him out of his office or bed, pleading him to train with her. Yuki has an air of sweetness, of summer and spring, reminding him of Juri Kuran. But Shizu was autumn and winter – beautiful

…but can be deadly.

Kaien removed his glasses and wiped his face with his hands, unable to believe he just called his daughter deadly. But the truth still stands.

''…Nightmares, sore eyes, dried lips and her increased appetite to sweet things.'' He murmured and rested his elbows on top of his broken desk. ''I really have a bad feeling about this… Kaname-san.''

But, it's too early…
