Elizabeth stormed into the castle's empty council room.
"Lizzie, listen to me." Ciel said.
"What can you say? What can you possibly say to make me feel better?" Lizzie snapped.
"We just got married. That should be enough." Ciel comforted.
"Angela found a way to ruin it. She always does. We have to do something." Lizzie fumed.
"Like what?" Ciel questioned.
"I don't know! Storm her castle, seal her magic. There must be some way to fight back." Lizzie growled.
"She can't hurt us, you know that." Ciel assured her.
"I know that she is determined and so am I." Lizzie said firmly.
"Lizzie, she wants to take away our happiness. We can't win that fight on a battlefield." Ciel pointed out.
"No, so how do you suggest we win it?" Lizzie asked.
"By going on our honeymoon." Ciel suggested.
"What?" Lizzie was surprised.
"That's the only way to show Angela that nothing she does can take away our happiness." Ciel said excitedly.
"How can you even think of leaving the kingdom now after the kind of threats she made?" Lizzie was shocked.
"Threats. That's all they were. I mean, for all we know, that was just blusters." Ciel was certain.
"She finds a way. She always finds a way!" Lizzie exclaimed.
"And then we will be ready. But today, it's just a threat." Ciel sighed. "Let's not ruin this moment. Let's not ruin our honeymoon. We can go anywhere you want to go."
While facing away from Ciel, Lizzie struck up an idea. "Anywhere?"
"As long as it takes your mind off Angela for a few days." Ciel said tentatively.
Lizzie smiled and turned around. "The Summer Palace. It's where my parents spent their honeymoon. I always dreamt of going there with my husband."
"Well, now you can." Ciel kissed her.
"I'll make preparations for our journey." Lizzie gave him another peck on the lips and laughed before darting out of the room.
Sebastian entered the room from a back entrance. "The castle is secure, my lord."
"Thank you, Sebastian." Ciel said.
"You know, I couldn't help but overhear you and the princess." Sebastian said. Ciel gave him a look. "Thin masonry. So, you're really going on a honeymoon now?"
"It's the best way to send a message to Angela." Ciel said.
"Yeah, I heard what you said. What do you think?" Sebastian pressed.
"I think... there's something that will help us defeat her once and for all." Ciel smiled.
