"Hello Iris its been a long time." Takuma's Grandfather said in the door way. "Hi Asato how are you?" I said sitting up he came to my bed side. "I am sure you are aware of why I'm here?" He sounded so sirius. "Fraid not could you tell me." I said equally sirius. He sighs and nods. "Your mother when she brought you to visit, would discuss your and my grandson being together. I for one think it is a good idea. You being a vampire hunter my grandson a vampire. The children will have both in them making a force to be recond with I'm sure. The blood shed would end apon the knowledge of them. You see Iris this marriage would work for both sides. Takuma is already smitten with you. You have nothing to fear becoming an Ichijo. " this was a lot to possess but it made so much sense. Mother did this for a good reason. I guess I have no choice in the matter then. "I accept the offer as my late mother would have wanted." I said a party of me screaming no. "Excellent I will start the preparations for a manor for you both. You will not regret this Iris, I assure you of that." He left happy selfish bastard. What does not add up is mother wanting this. I guess there is no backing out now.

A few days later I was released from the infirmary. Takuma was waiting for me holding some roses. "Ready to go darling?" He asked with a tender loving smile. Taking his arm happy to be out. "Oh you must have another admirer Takuma." I joked he stopped making me face him. "You are my only you understand that right. I will never betray you Iris." He said hurt in his eyes. "Takuma I was joking." "Well I was not lets keep moving before Zero yells at us." The walk was quiet and not the good kind. I stop making him look at me, gathering some courage I wrapped my arms around his neck kissing him. Takuma dropped the roses kissing me back. His lips moved against mine softly. Out of nowhere water was poured on us. We jumped apart to see a sick Zero. "If your going to do that, do it in your dorm not in public!" He yelled after us as Takuma walked me to my room. Things happened that cannot be mentioned.

(Sorry for the short chapter. I have five projects plus work riding me. I hope you are staying safe out there. With love to all Mama-Wolfblood)
