Me and Adren walked up the steps in front of the Phantomhive manner, Sebastian opened the door for us but before I could walk in he stopped me.
"I would like to speak with you alone," he said I glared at him same with Adren, bit none the less nodded walking in as Ciel came up to me to speak.
"please make yourself comfortable, Sebastian will show you your rooms, dinner will also be served shortly," and with that he left. Sebastian came up to us and lead us to our rooms he showed Adren his then showed me mine, he opened the door and let me in I looked at the room and placed my bag on the queen sized bed.
"Sebastian, what did you want to talk about?" I asked glareing at him.
"how are you here!" he asked in a serious tone
"do not worry I won't get in the way of your contract, I'm here to help the queen and that is all." I said pulling my new book out of my bag and sitting on the couch.
"Ariel!!" he yelled making me turn towards him.
"what Michaelis," I snap at him.
"Why Is Adren with you?" he asked I just rolled my eyes.
"he's my butler in hell he might as well be my butler here," I said as he growled.
"why dose it bother you so much it even bothers you at home," I said reading my book he sighed and looked away he then left, I sighed and continued my book.
°°°
I was called down to dinner I placed my book which I have almost finished on the night stand, I walked out the door and down the corador to see Ciel he walks up to me and bows I curtsy.
"my lady let me escort you to the dinning hall," he says holding out his hand I gently place my hand in his as he gids me to the dining room. he sat me in the chair right next to his and gave me a small smile which I returned.
"so Ciel about the case, I believe its a man in his late 30s Early 40s, his main signature is carving constilations in the stomachs of his victims, but he also tiers the house apart, but doesn't take anything," I said he looked quite suprised by my brefing of the suspect.
"I also think he is of high class, due to the dresses the women are in, he probably lurers them in," I said he opened his mouth to speak but no words came out I lightly reach over and close his mouth.
"you'll catch fly's my lord," I said with a smile his face goes red and he turns away to hide his blush. soon Sebastian came in with the food and sat it in front of us he bent down and wisperd in my ear.
"you can eat this I made it for demons," he said and I nod, he then poored Ciels and I's tea.
"Earl Gray, amazing choice," I say smelling the tea I heard a chukle from behind seeing Adren I smiled at him and he smiled back.
"you and your butler seem to be close," Ciel said taking a small bite of food.
"him and I have been through a lot together, he also is the person who knows me best, my father doesn't even know what I'm interests are," I said the last part slightly more quiet. He nodded I took a bite out of my food to have flavor exsplode in my mouth I ate slow to savor the taste.
"is the meal to your liking?" Ciel asked I finished my bite and pated my mouth with my napkin.
"it is most delicious," I say giving him a smile witch he returned. I finished my food and stood.
"I'm going to retire for the night thank you for the meal" I said as Sebastian pulled out my chair.
"alright I'll have may-rin help you," Ciel said standing as well.
"NO!I mean no thank you I can manage," I say and quickly leave the dining room Adren following close behind. I enter my room and let Adren in he closed the door and snapped his fingers holding a night gown in his hands.
"you can't keep doing that we will get caught, but thank you I'll get changed now," I said walking into the bathroom and closeing the door. I had just dropped my dress when the door slammed open seeing a worried Sebastian and Ciel.
"can I help you?" I asked crossing my arms over my white night gown, Ciel and Sebastian faces grew hot I raised a brow.
"we-erm... Sebastian let's go!!" Ciel said walking out Sebastian did the same but turned around and looked at me. I simply stood there raising my brow.
"who did that to you?" Sebastian said pointing to my leg were a large wound was that was still healing.
"nobody... why do you care," I asked glareing at him.
"it's not healing as fast as it should meaning it was eather a demon slayer weapon was used or a demon used there powers l," he said I rolled my eyes.
"you never cared back then so don't go careing now," I said walking over to my nightstand to grab my book but before I could I felt Sebastian lift up my dress I flung my elbow back trying to hit him in the face but he stopped it. he looked at my back his eyes wide as he saw many wip marks that were scabed over.
"Ariel who did this to you," he said his hair covering his bangs.
"you know who," I simply said pulling my night gown back down and moving towards the window Sebastian stayed still. he suddenly punched the wall making me jump.
"why? why would he do that to his fiance?!!" Sebastian yelled.
"it's part of being queen my father beat my mother to death after haveing me... queens are treated like shit, we have one role, and that's to have a kid and die nothing more!!" I yelled back.
"then why are you here if your so die hard for that imbecile!" Sebastian said his voice riseing with every word.
"Because I Don't Want To die!!!" I finally yelled he stayed silent as a few tears left my eyes.
"I ran away ok, I was getting beaten daily and I couldn't do it, so I came here made a stand for myself and became the queens stray cat, ironic huh? I ran away became a stray on the streets," I laughed lightly as more tears came down my face.
"I'm trying to forget alright so please leave me be and let me sleep," I say he nods and leaves the room I walk over to the bed and lay down pulling it over to my chin the crying silently into the pillow till sleep came.
