Faye woke up to see Leila shaking her lightly. "M'Lady, the guest should be here in an hour" she said. Faye nodded and sat up stretching. "I want you to cook dinner and set the table" ordered Faye. Leila nodded and bowed "Yes, My Lady" and she left. Faye stood up and got dressed in this: and noticed that Leila was already dressed for the occasion. She had ordered Leila two days ago to wear this: images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTbs50O53_PTqbHtvitXquus-bw... so she didn't look conspicuous. Faye freshened up and walked downstairs to see dinner set on the table. "Well done, Leila" said Faye. Leila nodded and bowed. Just then the bell rang "Get the door, Leila" said Faye. Leila nodded and walked to the door "You are not Miss. Signh's guest for tonight. I suggest you leave." said Leila. Faye frowned and walked to the door "Leila, who is at the door?" asked Faye. Leila opened the door more to reveal Ciel and Sebastian. Faye's eyes grew cold and Ciel lightly flinched. "Lady Signh" said Ciel in greeting. "Lord Phantomhive" said Faye shortly. "It seems that I have come at a bad time" said Ciel. "Indeed you have, now if you don't mind. I'd like you to leave so I can greet my guest for tonight" said Faye coldly. Ciel looked slightly angry and grew just as cold as Faye herself. "I will have to talk to you another time then" said Ciel. Faye didn't say anything and Ciel left. "Sebastian, I do believe your Master is leaving" said Leila. Sebastian remained emotionless, but Faye could see the hurt and longing in his eyes. Eventually he nodded and left with Ciel.
Leila watched him leave, hurt breaking where her heart used to be. "Leila, please call me when our guest arrives" said Faye. Leila bowed "Yes, My Lady" she answered. Leila's lady walked back to the kitchen and sat down, waiting. Leila couldn't believe both Lord Phantomhive and Sebastian had the nerve to show up. It was aggravating, Leila knew she loved him but all he did was make her grow more cold and the wall around her heart higher. Someone knocked on the door. "M'Lady" said Leila, looking in the dining room. She nodded, and Leila opened the door. "Welcome, Lord Allar" said Leila. "Thank you" said Lord Allar. "M'Lady is waiting in the dining room, may I take your coat?" asked Leila. Lord Allar nodded and handed Leila his coat. Leila hanged it up as Lord Allar entered the dining room. "Lady Signh" said Lord Allar in greeting. "Lord Allar" answered M'Lady. "Thank you for inviting me to dinner" said Lord Allar. M'Lady stiffened but answered warmly "Of course." Leila knew what Lord Allar was doing. He has been chasing M'Lady for months, wanting her hand. M'Lady always refused, but it was obvious that Lord Allar was getting impatient. Lord Christian Allar was a handsome man: He had girls' waiting on him hand and foot. But he chose the girl he could never have. Leila had done some checking up on Lord Allar. He was nothing but a flirt, challenging himself to win and hurt M'Lady's heart. M'Lady knew of course, but refused to let him. M'Lady has a cold, cautious soul. Before that, it was kind and gentle. I can't wait until the contract is over, so I can have it.
Faye ate quietly, Lord Allar sitting across from her. Faye was silently disgusted by Lord Allar. By the time dinner had ended, Lord Allar had already left and Faye was taking a midnight stroll. "My my, a pretty one you are." said a mysterious voice. "Who are you?" asked Faye sharply. "My apologies for not introducing myself. I'm Viscount of Druitt, it's lovely to have finally met you, Lady Signh" he answered. Faye took a breath to scream out for Leila, but her mouth and nose was covered with a cloth that had some sort of drug on it. Faye passed out.
Leila opened a letter from the queen and noticed that it was a request from the queen. It appears that Lady Signh had been taken by this "Jack the Ripper". This couldn't do, so Leila decided that she would attend the ball that Lady Signh had received an invitation for. Leila took the dress that Lady Singh was going to wear that night and took a dress from her closet to wear to the ball in one day's time. Lady Singh certainly has a talent for attracting trouble.
