Her Vampire Knight, His Vampire Princess

Chapter 13: I have royal blood in me? Oh my gosh, and Zero is what?!

It's all so clear now. I finally understand why all the vampires treated me the way they did. I finally understand now that I really am a reincarnation to my own great grandmother Sayuri Sanchez. It's so much to take in, but I need to know about me. About my family's bloody past.

"Princess Sayuri is my great grandmother. I'm her reincarnation. She fell in love with her knight. A knight who was also a pureblood. So tell me why is my family's blood and bite so toxic?" I say not wanting to sound overwhelmed just in case he stops explaining all this to me.

"Well, you see your great grandmother was a pureblood with unknown origins, and your potential great grandfather was also a pureblood. If a pureblood and human or Noble class vampire are together they create another Noble class, but the case of your family was the mixing bloods of two purebloods. That caused a strange mutation in their son to make his blood lethal. Your bite was unknown until your Grandfather had become an independent man." He explains patiently to me.

"So how did he continue the pureblood lineage of my family?" I ask probing deeper getting closer to answers I didn't even know I had.

"He married into your grandmothers family. That is where the ruling began for the "Bloody" Sanchez clan. Your Grandmother was against it, but she would say nothing about it. Sadly back then women had little say. Now things have dramatically changed, and we can see all those changes with you." He adds that last part even though I never asked for it. For some reason this story causes me heartache.

"Are you okay, Alondra?!" I hear the concerned voice of the Headmaster. I look at him. I gasp lightly since I hadn't noticed I was crying. I wipe the tears away.

"I feel fine." I say. Although I wasn't, and both Zero and the Headmaster could tell. Seeing as I gave it away once I started crying.

That was a little strange though. I had never cried like that in front of anyone. The only one who's seen my tears is Zero. I feel so self conscious about this that I go to the window that is covered by a curtain, and look at it.

"Do you need today off?" I hear the still worried tone of the Headmaster. I shake my head avoiding to speak because I can't stop crying anymore. I try really hard to control my breathing. I'm doing a pretty good job considering I'm not sobbing out loud. What I can't control though is the trembling in me. I take deep breathes, and calm down enough to speak again. I don't turn to face them though.

"Say- I mean my Great Grandmother Sayuri. . . who was she engaged to that caused her beloved to die protecting them?" I say crossing my arms over my chest trying to stop some of the trembling.

"It doesn't say. Even I don't know. Princess Sayuri never spoke of her previous suitor. Not even leaving a letter behind once she committed suicide. Although it was in your Grandfather's time where the enemy clan of the "Bloody" Sanchez clan came to be. That enemy clan was the Nishios they could never catch up to the power your family had." He says. That causes me to turn around quickly, and look at him. I don't care about the tears in my eyes anymore.

"Th-the Nishios?! I practically yell at him. I can't believe this. No wonder Lillian hates me. She hates me because she is a Nishio, and I'm a Sanchez. Now I see it all. Although it is still a mystery why Ace's attitude towards me is so different since that first day we met. This shocking news stops all tears from falling down my eyes.

"So what?! Does this mean I'm in danger now?! Ace and Lillian are Nishios!" I say. The Headmaster shakes his head.

"No. They will not hurt you. I have made sure to speak to them clearly. Your bloody clan is no more. It is only you, and I doubt you want to revive that bloody past do you?" He says to me then with a warm smile.
