I looked at Kaname and blinked in surprise and confusion,

"What?"

I asked, turning to Alek who sighed in resignation,

"It's true. I wanted to tell you, but I was afraid you wouldn't believe me since I didn't live in the mansion with you. I was supposed to be introduced to you that day, but then Rido attacked my...our family. I tried to get there but--"

"Why didn't mother and father tell me?"

I asked stoically, not quite believing his story. He responded calmly,

"They were going to, but they feared you were not ready. That day I was supposed to be introduced to you and our engagement made final. We wouldn't have been married until you were much older obviously, but you would have grown up with me and been more comfortable with marrying me."

I turned to Kaname,

"Why didn't you tell me?"

I asked, pain evident in my voice. He came closer to me and smiled comfortingly at me,

"When I found you, you were very confused. You had idea where you were and you barely knew who you were. I recognized you from the times I had visited your parents. I had heard rumors that Rido had killed your family, but I didn't believe them. I kept everyone away from you because I didn't know who was an assassin sent to kill you. I also suspected your brother had something to do with it. Had I told you that you had a brother, you would have gone running off in search of him. I knew that was dangerous, that he was dangerous. I see now that I should've told you to stay away from him."

Kaname replied, tossing a cold glare at Alek. I clenched my fists and glared at him with betrayal in my eyes,

"That wasn't something for you to decide Kaname!"

"He didn't want to lose his precious Y/N."

Alek sneered. I turned to Kaname, who couldn't meet my eyes,

"Is that true?"

I asked softly. he nodded in return and I sighed,

"I wish you would've just been honest with me."

Kaname was silent as Alek smirked,

"Well, I must be going."

He said, then was gone in an instant as if he was never there. I didn't say a word to Kaname or the others as I exited the Moon Dorm.



When I stepped outside I looked around and, to my relief, didn't see anyone around. I started walking around the grounds on the dorm when I suddenly felt like I was being watched. I turned around and saw Zero standing behind a tree. I smiled softly at him,

"Hey Zero, what're you doing here?"

I asked him curiously. I figured he would've gone back to his room in the Sun Dorm. He came over to me and gently moved a strand of hair from my face. Before I could question him, he spoke softly,
