"You're finally back," she said when she saw Ciel.
She didn't add the word prince to her words, who knew how she would look at Ciel now.
Perhaps at first she viewed Ciel as a little man that she could freeze at any time but she had no other choice but to submit to him.
When Ciel managed to gain the status of an Ice Prince, she also showed respect to him by continuing to address him using the word Prince.
However, when they made love, she started calling him by his name directly.
Right now, Ciel suddenly felt like she didn't want any status barrier between them.
"I've only been gone a short while, do you miss me already?" asked Ciel, slightly joking.
Mu Yixue's lips pressed together for a moment in reaction.
"I just don't want anything bad to happen to you and cause chaos afterwards," Mu Yixue replied.
Of course, Ciel's death would be especially frightening because her secret could be exposed.
