"Are you insane?! She is your daughter for God's sake think man!" Uncle Yagari was angry. "It's not my choice Yagari. Karl wants her to marry one of his son's." My father said defeated. "Did you consider Zero's or her feelings. Those two have been dating since middle school this is their sixth year anniversary. So you want them to throw away six beautiful years of bliss? That is love they share and you want to come between that, all because of some royal blood sucker. I tell you what Elizabeth would not-" my father slapped my uncle. "Don't..talk..about..my..wife. Do you think I want to do this? I don't want to I know Zero and my sweet Lilly love each other. Zero came to me today asking for her hand in marriage. I had to tell him why he can't. It broke my heart because I wanted to say yes. I know he is a good fit for her. I know he would take care of her. But I had to say no...Lilly go to Zero he needs you." My father who I have never seen shed a tear not even as my mother left, was in tears of anguish and sorrow. I nod and go to the fountain. Zero was looking at a black box. "Zero?" I whispered "I love you I want to marry you. Why do I have such god dam bad luck?!" He looked at me his eyes red. I ran to him both of us cry. "Zero this is my last night here. Karl Heinz wants me to leave tomorrow. Zero I want you to take something from me. No one but you should have it." I said having him look at me shocked. "Lilly but...were not married." He tried to reason with me. "You think I care about that? My father mad a Decision to Hand off To six adolescent blood suckers. We have been together for six years Zero. If anyone deserves to take my purity it's you not them." He kissed me tenderly. That night Zero had me making me his for the first and last time.

I woke up in my bed an arm wrapped around me. Zero kissed my neck before sinking his fangs in. It was like any other morning. I feel bad for him because my blood is what satisfies him. He lets me go licking my neck stopping the bleeding. "Your blood tastes off. " he said getting up. "You shouldn't stress about anything. I know you will always love me and I will always love you. For the sake of your family and the Treaty go threw with it. I only ask you to never forget out night together." He said before he left no kiss just words. I got up and dressed in a white knit dress that ended just above my knees, a blue jean jacket ,brown heeled boots. in my hair a Candy Cane lilly pin in my hair. I took a deep breath before

I walk out to the gate waiting for my ride. "LILLY!" I turned around to see my father running when he got to he. He hugged me crying telling me how sorry he was and how he wished it was Yuki to go instead of me. "Dad I will be ok." A Limo showed up soon after I said that. "I will write to you soon." I said kissing his cheek. A blonde got out of the Limo took my suitcase and placed it in the trunk. He was quiet. I got in and Six vampires and a human female waited for me. I sat down and bowed my head to them. "My name is Lilly Rose Cross. It is a privilege to mend the Treaty between our kinds. I thank you for this to end the needless bloodshed." I said softly. "Yui you should take note at what the girl just did. That is what manners looks like." The one with glasses said.
