A/N: I only recently started watching Kuroshitsuji, so please forgive me if everything is not entirely accurate. I do not own Kuroshitsuji/Black Butler in any way, shape, or form. If I did, Ciel would be in my closet and Sebastian-kun would be my butler. o: xDD
I held the letter up to the light in the sitting room, reading my fate once more. My hands shook. It was from my father, who was currently out on Royal Business.
It read:
Miss Raye,
I've written to inform you the Royal Business is going smoothly, and I should be home soon. Also, you are now betrothed to Mr. Ciel Phantomhive of England and will be married to him as soon as you both come of age. His royal butler has agreed to this arrangement.
My vision blurred as I clutched the paper.
Betrothed at twelve years old...
I ran down the hallway, my light brown curls flying behind me. I tore into my room and flung myself onto my satin floral-print bedspread and began to cry. Only twelve and my hand was already promised to a gentleman.
After about fifteen minutes, I managed to calm myself and accept the fact that my fate had already been decided and I was to go along with it.
I was pretty much doomed.
A/N: I know, I know! Annoyingly short x.x I'm sorry! I'll try my best to do longer chapters in the future. And work on Chapter 2 is actually almost finished... Go me! Two chapters in one day XD Well, bye!~ Please do review! Critique is always welcome :) xoxo
