The sound of wind howled into the car as Ichijo stared at the smirking Pureblood beside him. She admitted to him she was the one who turned Lord Ouri to ash and he was filled with conflict. Her gaze turned to him. Her soft colored blue eyes that held many secrets and mischief, yet he couldn't read her current emotion.
"There were Hunters everywhere. It was a perfect opportunity to make use of one... and her weapon that can negate a Pureblood's regenerative powers. Of course, she would have never done a favor for me if I had asked... so I had no choice. I made her my servant. After all, I couldn't wield her weapon myself... And then... the unexpecting Lord Ouri invited me into his room." She paused for a moment, deep in thought. "No... I think he knew. He neither resisted nor did he seem surprised." Sara then gave a bored look and hugged herself from the cold air the was rushed through the hole in the car window. "Afterwards, I ordered the servant to take her own life..." Sara began to explain how weary Lord Ouri was of life as she saw the shock and confusion on Ichijo's face.
She squinted her soft blue eyes and giggled. "A Pureblood without desire is a pitiful creature... I do not want to end up like Lord Ouri. That's why I remained quiet when Lord Rido was manipulating the Senate and I have no intention in playing with fire as he did." She smirked and stared into Ichijo's eyes. "After all... I'm going to become Queen."
Ichijo frowned, not breaking eye contact with Sara. "You think Kaname will allow that?"
"Hehe. Of course he won't. He is king after all. There will be no forgiveness. He'll take my life the moment I anger him..."

"A suicide...?" A small voice escaped my lips in the small car that drove us home.
I turned towards Shiro and saw him deep in thought.
"We don't know what exactly happened... But from the looks of it, it's a possible answer."
"But... at a Soiree of all places..." I gripped the side of my dress slightly and peered out the car window, watching each street lamp fly by. We soon pulled into our dark neighborhood, getting close to our home.
"I was thinking the same," He paused before clearing his throat. "Look, don't think too much about it, Emi. I'm sure you had a long night." I let out a small sigh and watched as our house came into view.
"What should I tell Risa?" I asked, glancing back to the hunter next to me. He was silent for a moment as the car came to a stop.
"Just tell her something came up last minute and they need me to handle it." He spoke up as I stepped out the car and into the cold dark night. I bend down slightly and peered back into the car.
"Be careful... okay?" I gave him a small smile. He nodded in return before I shut the car door and sped away, leaving me alone. I tighten the shawl around me for warmth as I turned and walked up the steps to the front door. I noticed the lights were off.
'Risa must be asleep...' I thought as I grabbed the house key from the hiding spot and unlocked the door, opening it as quietly as possible. I stepped into the dark living room, shutting the front door gently and tiptoed my way into my room down the dark hall. I flipped the switch in my room and shut the door quietly. I let out a sigh and dropped the shawl from my shoulders onto the bed and walked over to the mirror on my dresser, looking at my reflection.
"Ahh time to get out of this damn dress!" I whispered to myself as I reached for the zipper.

After taking a shower and changing into my nightgown, I plopped onto the warm comfy bed that has been waiting for me all night. I brushed my dark brown bangs away from my eyes and hugged one of my pillows close to my chest, thinking about everything that has happened tonight. It's a shame I couldn't see everyone tonight... At least I saw Rima and the others. There were many people there, it felt so overwhelming. At least Yuki seems to be settling in. I chuckled softly as my thoughts soon drifted to Kaname.
