Ch.3

Ciel struggled in Sebastian's arms. His face was red and he was sweating. Elizabeth backed away from them, her tears freely flowing now, she clutching her stinging cheek. She had never seen Ciel act like this before and he had certainly never hit her or attempted it. But there was that one time when she had broken his ring. That had been a fit of rage and she had deserved it or so she thought. This was a different Ciel.

Elizabeth turned on her heels and ran from the room. If he wanted to act like that then she didn't need him. Ciel ripped himself away from Sebastian. His chest was heaving and his breathing was labored. He clung to the doorway.

"Come back here Elizabeth...(cough cough)... This isn't over!"

He attempted to follow but Sebastian stepped into his path. He had never seen his master in such a state as this.

"That is enough my lord. You are making yourself ill. What you did to Elizabeth is wrong. Even I, a demon, could see that. I am only telling you this because it is my job to also protect the Phantomhive name and you are marring it."

Ciel stood straighter and tilted his head back a little. He laughed," What would you know about love Sebastian? You are a demon. You can't feel, love, or care for anything or anyone. The only think that matters to you is suppressing your insatiable hunger. It wouldn't mean a thing to you if Elizabeth was dead because eventually you would just get my soul and leave. You know and understand nothing! You are a dog, a mutt. Why the hell do you think I even bothered to give you a name! You are a mere servant and have no right to tell me what I can and can't do!"

Sebastian grabbed Ciel around the throat and slammed him into the table. The edge bit into his lower back causing him to cry out. Ciel leaned backwards over the table ans Sebastian leaned forward. Sebatian's eyes glowed a fierce red and his face seemed to create its own shadows. His canines elongated and his fingernails sharpened, pinching the skin on Ciel's neck and nearly drawing blood.

"You are correct Ciel. I am a demon and I'm glad you have not forgotten. I only care for your soul and at the moment, I am very close to getting it. You have lost your way, your passion for revenge. Your business has become your priority. Revenge was the original goal and that's what you sold your soul for. You humans are so scatterbrained. You lose track of things so quickly that it's almost comedic. Oh Ciel, you are losing your purity and I have a feeling that you are this close to cracking. I am in fact a dog and you forgot that dogs bite." Sebastian punctuated the last word with a smile.

He released Ciel with a flourish and left the room as if nothing had happened. Ciel shook so hard that he could barely hold onto the table. His hand slipped and he crashed to the floor on his knees. He couldn't stop the tears from falling. He couldn't catch his breath and started hyperventilating. His shoulders shook and he rolled onto his side and pulled his knees up to his chest. Look at him. He was on the floor, crying his eyes out like a child. He deserved whatever came his way in the form of punishment. Sebastian had reached into his heart and squeezed it. It had been brief but had a lasting effect. Ciel curled into a tighter ball and sobbed, little did he know that Elizabeth was in her own room doing the same.
