~Sebastian~

It was the first time I ever felt this way. Ever since Lucia got abducted there was a gnawing loneliness inside of me.
I had an idea of who could possibly have taken her away.
Surely Duke Samuel was involved but that pesky human was merely a pawn of another demon.
I could only think of one demon that was strong enough to overpower my seal which I had placed on Lucia's neck.
A wave of anger hit me and I gritted my teth.
This wasn't about a 'plaything' being taken away anymore. She became so much more than that.
"...tian..."
"Sebastian!", a high-pitched voice followed by a slap on the counter startled me.
Ciel was shouting at me. "When did you start spacing out like this?!"
"I apologize, my Lord."
It was around noon time and I was in the middle of preparing the Lord's dinner,
as the cook once again scorched everything he merely touched, so it seemed.
"This isn't like Sebastian at all...", I could hear Meirin whispering behind the half-closed door of the kitchen.
"He's been like this ever since Lucia didn't return. Do you think he's worried for her?", Bart spoke with a hint of irony.
"Of course he is!", Finnian chimed in. I did a half turn and glared through the gap.
The three of them twitched and hurried back to what they pretended to be doing.

Ciel clicked his tongue while furrowing his brows.
Despite him trying to constantly hide his feeling he was unable to keep up his attitude as flawlessly as he intended to.
He felt responsible for Lucia being kidnapped and has been losing his temper more often than usual.
"As I was saying... Go to my office after dinner. We need to talk about what we are going to do next.", he said to me as he was already walking away.
There was a hopeful tone in his voice which peaked my attention.
"Yes, my Lord.", I felt a rush of adrenaline in my body.
I finished quickly, all I wanted was to get her back.

After washing up I entered Ciel's office, my hands slightly trembling.
He was sitting in his chair, hands folded in front of his face.
"...I found that fat piece of shit...", he said, glaring at his desk.
"...How?", I myself couldn't locate him, how did he?
"Undertaker and Lau still owed me. Don't ask.", he cut me off before I was able to say anything.

~Lucia~
I lost count of how much time passed by after John had taken ownership of me.
I can't say I was unhappy but there was something buried deep inside of me.
Each time I focused more on it my neck began to throb.
I couldn't tell why.
"Lucia.", I heard John calling for me.
My hand slipped down from my neck and I watched him approaching me.
"There is new work for you, kitten.", he was smirking while caressing my cheek.
All the feelings I was unable to figure out were washed away in an instant.
"What is it, Master?", I was overjoyed.
"Nothing much different than all the other times. Just a bit more...advanced, one could say.", he replied while playing with a strand of my hair.
"What does 'advanced' mean?", I said.
"Almost all human men are the same if it comes down to it...", he began.
"They act high and mighty until a woman comes along. Truly only lowly creatures submit to lust. They become like dogs..", he paused until he continued.
"It's about a governmental official. You see that fat excuse of a living creature is terribly addicted to gamling and overdid it this time.
He got himself caught by a man that works for Scotland Yard. That man blackmailed Samuel and quite frankly, there is no way out besides death."

That made me swallow hard. I've been dealing with small fries so far so this task did make me nervous.
"I need you to take him down." My hands were trembling. This felt like it was going to go horribly wrong.
But I had no choice. I could not resist his command.
"Yes, Master."
I fell to one knee and lowered my head in front of him.
His laughter echoed in the room.
I stood up, slowly. Struggling as my limbs felt stiff and heavy.
Inside of me was a storm. Not wanting to murder yet another being fought the need to comply with my master.
John cocked his head while seeming to stare right into my soul.
He approached me and cupped my face with his slender hands.
He pressed his enticing lips firmly on mine. It sent electric shocks into every bone and the desire to go against his orders faded.

The feelings were replaced with adoration. His fingers combed through my raven-coloured hair and his other hand grabbed me by my waist.
My whole body seemed to be paralysed when my clothes glided down my body, followed by his tongue glazing my supple skin.
He pierced me relentlessly, his low moaning was sweet as honey.

"It's time, kitten.", his finger tip trailed alongside my markings which were pulsing every time he came close to me.
I rose from the bed we had connected on, recollected my clothes and walked towards the entrance of the mansion.
John came along with me. Apparently Samuel mentioned my existence towards said police officer,
it was a desperate attempt to prevent him from locking Samuel up for all the illegal activities he pursued so far.
Now that man demands the freak girl, me, as the price for releasing him.
The way things have gone in the past even that person probably plans on abusing me for any fantasy he might have.
"Let's go.", John said, void of any emotion and so we moved to get to the place where I was supposed to be delivered to him.

~Sebastian~
"See... Lau informed me that Duke Samuel has been gambling like mad in the undergrounds. He managed to somehow lure him into a trap.", Ciel explained to me.
"So he is with Lau now?", I gritted my teeth. I missed Lucia terribly...
It tore me apart that I couldn't save her.
"No.", Ciel wasn't looking at me anymore. "Lau arranged it so that a police official caught him, currently Samuel is held in his manor in the outskirts.
Apparently he offered to give a 'freak girl' to the official and in return he should be released. The police official agreed to that.", he paused.
"But he only told me way after he agreed to that offer so we might not have much time left before Lucia arrives there."
My breath became ragged.
"My plan was to fetch her as soon as he takes her in. It's up to you what you do with that fat snake."
I want to tear him apart, I thought while still gritting my teeth.
I was sure she once again had to go through a lot of abuse.
Unexplicable anger rose inside me and was seeping into the atmosphere, an aura so thick you could feel it.
"Let's get going.", Ciel said to me. "Samuel isn't the only one who has to be punished. The police official betrayed the queen with his behaviour, he needs to be exterminated."
He started walking away and I prepared everything necessary so that we were able to leave as soon as possible.
My fingers were itching to pull the guts out of him, who had enslaved her anew.
