Continuation! I'm so excited!
Twisted Branches
Ch.2
Sebastian's gaze lowers slightly before opening the door to reveal a very familiar white haired woman, with calm blue eyes like the sky. The butler's eyes widen then return to normal.
"Good afternoon, Sebastian-kun." She smiled lovingly. "And good afternoon to you, Phantomhive-san."
Sebastian became speechless as she sat in the chair in front of Ciel, "I see that you're doing much better than the last time I saw you, Phantomhive-san."
"Now, Ms. Haruka. No need in getting all sentimental and all. After all, you did travel a long away. Don't you wish to rest?" Ciel asked as he gauged his 'hell' butler's expression.
"Oh, no. I'm quite alright, besides I wanted to know if you're alright. Lao told me about the whole mansion and the deaths of your mother and father. I really am sorry." Hana prayed.
Ciel waved his hand as he continuously watched Sebastian devour the woman with his eyes. Finally, Sebastian collected himself he spoke to the gorgeous woman.
"Haruka-san, you took me quite aback. I wasn't expecting you to be here." Sebastian smiled while cocking his head.
"You're still flashing that fake smile like a badge, Sebastian-kun." Hana smirked. "I was also wondering where you had gotten to."
"I've been here for the past two years, madam." Sebastian stated his red eyes lingering into the woman's seductive blue ones.
Ciel leaned back in his chair and smirked as he finally nailed Sebastian with something that he couldn't resist, other than his soul.
"So, Sebastian. Are you still certain about our wager?" Ciel asked cockily.
The demon smirked, "Of course I am, sir."
Hana looked from the demon to the young master, "Phantomhive-kun?"
"Yes. What is it?" Ciel asked still looking at Sebastian with doubt.
"I am starting to feel a bit tired, I should retire to my estate." Hana stated standing up.
"There's no need for that. You may stay here, if you wish." Ciel told the petite woman.
Hana's eyes widened then returned back to normal, "Are you sure that's alright? I don't want to be a burden."
"You're not, Hana. If I thought you were, I wouldn't have offered." Ciel paused. "Oh, and if you need anything, just make yourself at home. My servants are your servants. Use them as you please."
"Oh, dear. I don't know if I could, but if you insist. Thank you very much, Phantomhive-kun." Hana stating smiling at the young man.
Ciel nodded as the woman exited the room. He smirked once more at the butler.
"I believe that you're going to have a very hard time controlling yourself." Ciel started. "Hana is irresistible, it would be hard for even a person as yourself to resist her."
Sebastian sighed, "You have no faith in me, master, but I assure you. I will not lose my head over a mere human. You are the only human I 'care' for."
The butler smiled evilly at the young master who sighed heavily at his butler.
"Fine then. Make sure that Hana is as comfortable as possible." Ciel stated his blue eye piercing into Sebastian's brown ones. "And that's an order."
Sebastian wandered out of the room and rested slightly against the door, "This is going to be quite interesting… But, what you don't know about me master, will certainly trouble you."
The 'hell' butler stood back up straight, "I don't have time for sitting around and trying to figure out his little game. I must return to work."
"Oh my, Lady Hana! Your dress looks so pretty with your white hair, yes it does!" Mey-rin blabbed.
"Yeah. I've never seen a woman pull off such a bold shade of white before." Finny stated blushing lightly.
"Oh, you two. Stop it. I'm just simply a lady is all." Hana smiled as she rested her hands on her lap.
Sebastian caught the woman's blue eyes and she smiled lovingly at him, "Hello, Sebastian-kun. Oh! I hope I'm not keeping y'all from working!" She brought her gloved hand to her mouth as she looked over the rest of the staff.
"No not at all!" Bard stated. "It's nice to get a little entertainment."
Hana blushed lightly, "What are you saying, Bard-kun?"
Sebastian smirked at the woman who was playing with their emotions, or rather he himself couldn't figure out what to say to the woman.
Hana looked outside, "Oh my. It is late. I believe that I am going to retire. Please, excuse me."
Hana turned and began to walk Sebastian's way but didn't even bother talking to him. The demon frowned then turned to the three servants.
"I hope that you three are done with the chores that I had given you earlier." Sebastian stated sharply as he followed the woman down the hall.
Sebastian wandered to the master's quarter's and helped his master retire for the night.
"So, have you taken care of our guest?" Ciel asked as Sebastian tucked in the petite boy.
"Of course not yet, my young lord. I haven't seen the mistress since dinner." Sebastian explained.
Ciel rolled over, "Do what you must."
Another Cliffhanger! I wonder what's going to happen?
