[Ciel's POV] Chapter 1:

I can't sleep as a demon, let alone if I was human, with these constant nightmares of past times usually including those months and it seems as if I can feel the pain. Sebastian shows no sympathy but he simply just makes sure I'm okay then leaves me, he's acting like a pouting child who didn't get a toy! But why should I care he is simply my butler and I'm his master for eternity, nothing has changed except we are forced in a different manor that is far from civilization. Something I can't help but wonder is when I will require feeding, I'm sure all demons must have at least one soul or else they will starve so when will it take effect on me? Now days I'm not sure what to do anymore I have no paperwork to finish, I don't need to take school, and I don't have any more dangers; my existence seems useless when all I do is sit around doing nothing.

Suddenly snapped from my train of thought I hear knocking from my study door and Sebastian says "Young master I have your afternoon tea," everyday it's just the same nothing more then him bringing me food then I'm left to do nothing. He sets the cup of tea along with a piece of chocolate cake, that's new...not. I still eat some human food but it's not that pleasing I'd like to know what a soul tastes like, I need some sort of a thrill in my new boring life. "Young master I have a request," Sebastian says catching my attention and I say "Okay I'm listening." Sebastian smirks and says "Since I'm stuck by your side for eternity I'd like my family to visit me at least once, you wouldn't mind if they visit would you? They have heard of you and are very fond of you, I'm guessing it's because of your order to me to stay your butler forever." His family wants to come to the manor, a family of demons, to any normal person that would be quite frightening but because I am a demon it is no threat to me. Messing with the food on my plate I reply "Okay sure just make sure the place is presentable I don't want them coming to a dump."

One question comes to mind at Sebastian's words, how did his family hear of me did Sebastian talk to them behind my back; better yet why would he talk about me when I'm probably a jerk to him. I am the one who put the permanent cuffs on his wrist forcing him to stay by my side forever. Maybe he talked about me before I became a demon, but still why would he brag over me to his family was I something truly great to have possession over. I did have a group of demons fighting over my soul so I guess that is my proof that my soul must have been a true prize to any demon. But here I am my revenge fulfilled but still alive, in a way, as a demon with my demon butler still by my side. I wonder maybe Sebastian deserves a break he has worked so long but I don't think I've given him what he deserved for protecting me through my human years. But he was the one who failed me in the end making me am what I am today, so I'm not sure what to say. Well I should definitely think that over, but in the mean time I guess I should get ready for Sebastian's family.

~~~Time Skip~~~

"Sebastian we are here!" I hear a squeaky female voice from my study, ever since I became a demon my senses have become sharper. The same girl says "I want to see the kid I bet he's adorable get him down here Sebby!" Well well it looks like Sebastian has either a sister or a good friend, why she calls him that silly pet name I have no clue. I am curious if Sebastian has siblings is he the youngest or the oldest; just the thought of him having an older brother pester on him causes me to grin. "Young master they are here, could you come downstairs." Sebastian says after knocking and cracking the door open, I stand from my desk and follow him to the staircase. When I reach downstairs I see a girl that looked to be seventeen and what almost seemed to be a twin brother but his features were a bit different. Then there was his parents that I could pick out of the group; his mother has raven black hair along with stunning blue eyes and his father has that same black hair along with Sebastian's brown and red eye color. When I was busy observing the family I didn't even notice that there was a small child with blond curly hair clinging to Sebastian's leg she seemed to be around five, how cute.

"So this is the famous Ciel Phantomhive," Sebastian's brother says ruffling my hair, cocking my eyebrow I ask "May I ask what made me so famous in your household?" He chuckles and replies "Ever since the word got out about you becoming a demon and your order to Sebastian making him your eternal butler you became a very known demon in the underworld." That makes me wonder what the underworld is like, is it a torturous place or because we are demons would it not be so bad? I simply reply "Oh," before I'm grabbed by Sebastian's older sister who is giving me a giant bear hug and says "You're so cute Ciel how could someone with such a face of an angel become a demon?" Once I'm out of her hug Sebastian says "Why don't you all introduce yourself to my young master, I'm sure he'd like to know your names." His siblings shrug and his sister says "I am Katarina Sebby's older sister," his brother says "I am Kaiden the oldest sibling," and the little girl says with a smile "And I am Venus, his little sister." His mom says "I am Juniper and this is my husband Dimitri, we are so glad we can finally meet you."

When walking down the many hallways with the whole demon family I could feel a familiar set of eyes on me, but I couldn't bring myself to see if I was right. I just stared at my feet as I walked until we reached our destination, which I believed was the garden they wanted to see. The garden is filled with many different colored roses and many other exotic flowers to complement the look, it truly is a beautiful garden I admit. "Oh what a lovely garden did you do this Sebastian I can't believe what skills you've acquired over time it's un-believable?" Juniper says in a joyful tone. I am still just looking down at my feet, none of this is new to me I've been living in this manor for around half a year now. I drown myself in my thoughts just following the crowd most of the time suspecting none of it's really important, just showing them around the manor.

After awhile it was around time most people would go to sleep so Sebastian showed everyone to guest rooms and me to my own room. Truly I didn't want to sleep I know those dreams would pop up again and I hate going through them all the time. When I dream those dreams I feel the pain unlike any other dream and all my emotions and senses are ten times worse than in real life. When I had my night clothes on I lay in bed my back facing Sebastian and the door and right then the candles were blown out and Sebastian is gone. In my mind I am thinking maybe I should have told him to stay here until I fall asleep but I would just become a burden. I lay there what feels like hours until sleep comes over me and yet another dream takes over.

~Dream~

An empty field, no one is there to give any clues or help me out. I reach for my eye patch to call Sebastian but I don't feel it, it's gone. Is this before Sebastian exist or... wait who was I thinking of? I walk around the field clueless and helplessly until I reach a large house. Nobody is outside but I just hope somebody is indoors who could help me out. Approaching the large decorative doors I knock as hard as I can but it comes out very quietly; a man in a butler's attire opens the door and after moments he sees me and has a confused expression. "What are you doing here child are you lost?" The man asks me squatting to my level. I reply "I'm not sure I'm lost, I don't know how I got here or how to get back home." He stands back to his full size and says "Well maybe my master can help you, would you follow me." I nod and follow the butler into the manor.

"Come in," an oddly familiar voice says through the door and the butler opened the door to reveal a man with raven black hair and dull red eyes. He looks up from whatever he was doing and asks "Who is this and why is he here?" The butler replies "He just came saying he is lost and he doesn't know how to get back home," The man's eyes glisten red for a split second and he says "Very well I want him to work as a servant here; he will be provided food and shelter. Now you may go but little boy I want you to stay here." I gulp as the butler leaves and look towards the man sitting before me, why would he force me to work when I have a home? "Come here," he says and immediately I obey walking up to him standing straight and not looking him in the eye.

In an inhumanly fast movement he takes me by the chin and forces me to look up at him causing a shudder to go down my back. Those abnormal red eyes that can change to a lighter tone cause shivers to run down my back and fear to struck my heart. "What is your name," he asks and I reply "Ciel Phantomhive, may I ask why I'm forced to work here when I do have a home?" His eyes turn bright red again and he says "Well Ciel I guess you don't realize that your parents are dead, they died in a fire. You were in that field because I saved you from the people treating you as a slave but made you forget it all. So now you belong to me and you must repay your debt through work and such, you understand that right Ciel?" I felt like bursting in tears but containing them I say "Yes I understand sir." I owe him my life if I was stuck as a slave and truly I have no home so I guess I just will accept my new life style as it is.

When showed to a servant room I see there are five beds but I'm curious why there is five unless there are four other servants in the house. Right before I enter the room three other people come running in a clumsy manor and say "Eh Tanaka who is this little runt?" I look to see a man with frizzy blond hair and a chefs outfit. The butler, apparently Tanaka, says "This is Ciel Phanotmhive and he is a new servant." The same guy says "Isn't he a little young to be workin' here, besides I thought that Phantomhive was big in London or something," I scoff and mutter "It used to be, they probably think I'm dead." A girl with velvet red hair says "And why would anyone think your dead?" I reply "Because my parents died in a fire," She swoons and takes me into a hug repeating "I'm so sorry," Tanaka pulls me out of the maids arms and says "Ciel this is Mey-rin, Bardroy, and Finnian they are all servants as well." I would smile to them but I'm really not in the mood to smile, I'd rather be alone thinking things over. Is this all true?

The next day when I wake up I find a sheet of paper next to the doorway, after getting dressed I go up to the paper to read it to find assignments. Mine are to clean the upstairs rooms and after I'm done apparently I have to report to him. Starting with the first room I find and working my way through the many hallways. I have never worked so hard in my life, I am just a child this seems like a little much just for a ten year old. After working on the many rooms I felt exhausted as I walked to the masters office, I wonder why he wants me to report to him?

Knocking on the door he answers "Come in," and I open the door to find him sitting at his desk, just like yesterday. He continues "So you've finished your work Ciel that was rather quick," What is he talking about that was probably half the day I took just doing that one task he asked of me. I say "Okay you have me now what is it you want?" I just want to go home back to before my parents died in the fire so I can play with Lizzie again and be with my parents again. Aunt Anne! If I could get in touch with her somehow I could escape the life of a servant; I don't want to wake up to that list of paper at the door way. I don't want to do this work that belongs to a man, I want to go back to simple school work by my private tutor. "I have a home I can go to so why should I be forced to stay here, my aunt would gladly take me in." Sebastian smirks and replies "You still owe me, if it wasn't for me-" I yelled interrupting "I don't care about that! I don't care how spoiled I'm being I just don't want this life, now I want to go home!"

He seems taken back by me yelling before straightening himself up again and says "There is another way you can repay me if you refuse to work and live as a servant." I narrow my eyes and say "Okay what is it, maybe I'd be willing to do it," He gestures for me to get closer and I do; he leans in and whispers "Your soul." And his lips brush against my neck causing me to freeze in shock. I stutter "W-what... what are...you?" He replies with a devious grin "If you must know I am a demon." My eyes widen; I yelled at a demon, a demon saved my life. "If you're a demon then why did you save someone like me, a spoiled child?" The demon replies "Your soul it smells so irresistible I just can't seem to contain my soul. Any demon would do just about anything to just taste your soul, even kill which sounds like a lot for you probably." A shiver runs down my spine as his bare hand touches my neck and he lifts my head to meet his gaze. He flashes a sympathetic look before saying "You poor young soul." And right then his lips meets mine and I realize my soul is being sucked right out of me; he is stealing my soul from me.

~End of Dream~

I gasp and cling to the sheets from that new dream, it all seemed too real as if I had forgotten it all and the dead feeling I got as he tried to steal my soul. But now my soul is non-existence so nothing like that could happen. That dream is proof I couldn't last a day as a servant no matter if my life depended on it. The way Sebastian acted in that dream was so strange and out of character, but his piercing eyes still caused shivers down my back and fear to strike my heart. That would never change no matter how my life changes. Those red piercing eyes...
