What happened on the last chapter…
'What is the Earl thinking?! I thought it was merely one of his plays but is he that serious?' I thought. I saw the Earl chatting with the Midford siblings.
Who is he exactly? What does he want from me? What is he planning?
And so it begins…
Your POV
I just observed guests enjoyed the party. Walking across me, asking me, chatting with me or another noble. I simply waited for the party to end and visit the young Earl in his study. It may have a possible that he seen my face when I snooped in... I could get in big trouble in this situation! But he may have another reason and not just jump into conclusions. I must simply wait and look what does he wants.
I watched as time goes by with the guests leaving the manor. The candles flicked with the wind going inside. Darkness spread throughout the hall.
"It is time for me to see him." I stood up and went up to the staircase. No one was present to escort me to the study room as they were busy to clean the halls so I needed to trust my sense on to look for the study.
~Few minutes later~
"This manor is big enough for me to get lost… Why did I need to trust my sense of direction when I do not have one? I regret it! I stumbled upon a dark looking door and thought it was the study. But I soon regret it as I opened the door…
A room of-
"What on earth are you doing in this room?" I gasped as I turned around and saw an angry Earl with his butler by his side.
"E-earl…?!" I was able to stutter out of my fear of his little angry look. But to tell you the truth, he looks quite adorable with his angry look. With his cheeks looked a bit puffy, he looks absolutely cute…!
"What are you looking at, you old buffoon?" He rudely asked. I got irritated from his statement.
"How rude! You called me old lady then it is old buffoon?! Don't you have any manners?!" I scolded him.
"It's because it suits you." He said in an emotionless voice. I stood up in annoyance and my hand clutched.
"Even though I must respect you as the Earl, your attitude is going in my nerves…!" I showed him my clutched hand in annoyance of his attitude. Truly, why wouldn't he be polite and act like a TRUE noble?!
"Am I already? Truly I tell you, if you keep on doing that sort of face, you'll grow too old quickly." He chuckled at me. This boy! I am enraged by his words of arrogance. My head is heating up! I saw the butler only chuckled at the childish attitude of the Earl.
"You little arrogant rude manner less boy!" I exploded at him making the Earl and the butler looked quite surprise at me.
"I am through with your shameless words, Earl Phantomhive! You speak like you do not think about the feelings of a person! Have your parents even taught you some manners?!" I bursted out. I saw the shock look in his blue eye.
The room suddenly had an ominous atmosphere. I was filled with fear and felt shivers running down my spine. I might be a little too harsh on him… He walked slowly over to me and came to a stop. I looked at his face as to see a horrifying look.
"Sebastian, leave the room at once." He said.
"Yes, My Lord." The butler simply bowed and went to the door.
I walked backwards but I tumbled down on something as he came forward to me. I crawled inside the dark room in hopes of escaping but a wall just blocked my way. The Earl smirked as he looked at a small frightened puppy whimpering.
"E-earl…?" I whimpered out. He let out a satisfied smirk at me. What a creepy child…!
"I heard that you are a reporter from the London Times. I suspect that you came to investigate some secrets of me, isn't it?" He devilishly chuckled.
I didn't know that this child is too horrifying to mess with! If I knew, I wouldn't accept the task! I am in big trouble now!
"Am I true, isn't it, Ms. Reporter?" He insanely asked.
I am really messing with the wrong person! Will I ever see the sunlight from tomorrow's sun in this situation?!
