Promise as a noun, is a declaration or assurance that one will do a particular thing or that guarantees that a particular thing will happen. Promise as a verb, is to assure someone that one will definitely do, give, or arrange something; undertake or declare that something will happen.

As a noun, Sebastian promised that he would be there to protect me, always. He promised that he would continue to be my faithful butler until the end of our contract when he would take my soul. He promised he'd be there when I needed him. As a verb, Sebastian promised he'd get rid of those evil demon's that had come to the Manor to try and take me from him. He promised he'd kill them all and he'd come back to me.

He promised, so where the hell was he? I had called out to him countless times and he had not come flying to my feet as usual. Why had my other useless servants come back without him? Why wouldn't they answer my questions, nor meet my gaze? Why is it they didn't want me to leave and find Sebastian? I never listen so I left anyway.

Running through the forest that surrounds my home, searching for him, scared. I couldn't understand why I was so afraid that something bad had happened. It's not as if I harbored any feelings for the demon known as Sebastian. He was just a servant, a ruthless demon who I cared nothing for.

But my own feeling of nothing for Sebastian could not shield the pain that invaded my inner being when I saw him, a pool of blood surrounding him, leaned up against the biggest tree in the forest. That feeling didn't stop me from running to his side where he was barely alive. It didn't stop me from feeling anger at how he joked about fulfilling my order and our contract ending early, which for some odd reason, I didn't want it to.

That feeling of nothing didn't stop the tears that ran past my dignity or the words of promises he didn't complete from flowing from my mouth. That feeling didn't stop me from responding to the kiss he gave me as one last effort to make me feel loved. And it definitely didn't stop me from hating Sebastian when his final words were, "I guess we were a broken promise."
