Her Black Butler

Chapter Two

*the theme song will always be in the chapters, mainly cause it's always lit and it has no excuse being that bloody badass*

Ciel glared as his three clumsy servants fought over how to show his butler that they were serious about their duties.

"Shut up, the three of you! My sister is resting because you three have given her a migraine with how reckless and foolish you are being," Ciel spoke acidly.

"I apologize, Master, she's so very good to us and I'm deeply sorry that we've made her ill," Finnian's lower lip trembled as his bright emerald eyes filled with tears.

The son of the late Vincent and Racheal Phantomhive, merely scoffed and walked back into his late parents' study which now belonged to him and his older sister.

His single blue eye softened upon seeing his older sister curled up in their mother's chair, she was shivering lightly and to him, that was not acceptable.

Sebastian soon appeared with a warm satin blanket and draped it comfortably over his mistress who let out a sigh of contentment.

Then he raised an eyebrow as Ciel stared at him, curiosity in his single blue eye.

"She is your fated, is she not?" The young Earl demanded quietly.

"Indeed, she is, young master, although she has a secret of her own, it seems," The black butler answered.

"What are you talking about? Are you saying that she's been cursed or that she is a monster?" Ciel demanded, his quiet voice rising with his temper.

His family, especially his older sister, was always going to be a sensitive topic for him.

"Not at all, young master, she is I believe a nephalem, half angel and half demon, a true archangel. In the mortal world, she was born as the daughter of Vincent and Racheal Phantomhive, however, in the supernatural realm, she is the daughter of the demoness, Lilith and the angel, Michael," Sebastian explained.

Ciel glanced back at his sleeping sister who seemed so sweet and compassionate, but memories of her tormenting other nobles who picked on Ciel and Elizabeth when they were children, surfaced.

"What will happen to her? She is your fated and you are hers, even though she is half angel as you say," Ciel seemed broken in a way.

He had accepted the fact that he was half demon, thanks to Sebastian, but to know that his darling older sister was also half demon worried him.

"Her abilities easily match mine and that's why nobody dares cross her, they can sense that she's otherworldly and mortals seem to fear things that they cannot understand," Sebastian answered as his crimson eyes glowed demonic fuchsia.

Ciel watched as his demonic butler bent down and inhaled Aramis's sweet scent, seeming to relax.

"My lovely mate smells irresistible and is so very exquisite," Sebastian purred and the sound made Aramis snuggle into his arms.

As the demon stood back up, purring every few minutes to keep his beautiful mate asleep, he nodded at Ciel who led him to Aramis's bedroom.

"She adores you, from the moment you met, she loves you entirely, I didn't want to admit it because I'm afraid she'll leave me all alone and she's the only family I have left," Ciel sighed as he watched Sebastian lay with his older sister on her large bed.

The demon had forgotten what having a family meant, he had been alone all his life and so he had learned to never form attachments as he watched mortals hurt each other over the centuries.

But now that he had finally found his mate and he was currently in a contract with her younger brother, he made a vow to protect both of them.

He vowed to never let them grow apart.

"Young master, if I may, I vow that you and my fated will never grow apart, I understand that you are the only family you both have left and just as you have commanded me, I will never leave either of you nor would I ever want to," Sebastian was standing within a minute and bowed with his hand on his chest.

Ciel nodded and knelt by his older sister, gently intertwining their fingers and laying his forehead against hers.

"Sister mine, I promise you will never be alone again, for everyone adores you and will continue to do so, you suffered so much agony when Mother and Father were murdered, you suffered when those vile bastards molested you and when they tried their hardest to break us both. You took all of the beatings for me and not once did you lose your spark, you did everything you could and so much more. You rescued many of us, including myself and I was so selfish, focusing on my own recovery, that I never noticed you drowning in the darkness that plagued your mind and heart. Now, we are both taking on the roles of what our late parents have passed down to us and I've never been happier. My promise to you will never break and I hope I can do just as much as you still continue to do, someday, sweet sister mine," Ciel promised.

Sebastian felt his crimson eyes turn demonic fushcia as he listened to his young master speak the horrible truth.

His beautiful and strong mate had been molested by those filthy bastards, she had taken every beating, to protect not only her brother but also the other children, she was fighting her own trauma.

And the worst part was that she and Ciel both had slave marks branded on their creamy porcelain skin, both marks branded onto both of their lower backs.

They knew out of their three human servants, Finnian was very much like them and he even had his experiment number branded on the back of his neck.

The demon let out a low snarl and forced himself to calm down, although he wanted to mercilessly murder everyone who had ever hurt his gorgeous mate and her strong younger brother.

"Sebastian, promise me, if it came down to me and my sister, you will protect her first," Ciel scowled.

"What if she demands I help you first? What then, young master?" The demon asked, already knowing the answer, though neither male would like it.

"Then you obey her, I know my sister, how I love her so and I know she's as stubborn as I, should she command you otherwise, simply listen and obey but afterwards, help her," Ciel's tone had hardened.

His demonic butler grimaced, not even wanting to imagine his young master and his short mate in such situations.

"Very good, young master," Sebastian bowed once more and his crimson eyes landed on his sleeping mate, who had a light frown on her beautiful face, knowing neither her mate or little brother were there to cuddle her.

Ciel kissed his older sister's rosy cheeks and then stood up, gently discarding his fingers from hers.

"Let her sleep, she's had many sleepless nights due to night terrors and flashbacks, but you will awake her once dinner is ready," Ciel spoke quietly as he and his butler began to leave.

"Vida," They heard Aramis whisper in her sleep and Sebastian's crimson eyes widened in shock.

'My Vida, indeed, she does remember me,' The demon thought as a light smile spread onto his handsome face and he gently closed his mate's bedroom door.
