Inuyasha crossover Kuroshitsuji
Chapter 7: Didn't Mean It
There was no link that was visibly found between Kagome and Ciel, except for the invitation that she had extended to him and nothing more. Protecting Alois is the top of priority for Hannah, and his happiness to a certain level of course. Eliminating a threat is something that is within her scoop.
"Are you going to leave me Claude?" Alois asked as Claude kneeled on one knee before of the young blonde boy as the other, with crossed legs and his toes pointing towards Claude's face as he poked at him with his toes.
"Of course not Your Highness," Claude replied dutifully as he glanced at the blue eyed boy that looked so much like that of an angel but with a truly ugly personality and attitude.
"Then prove it to me how much I mean to you, my loyal servant," Alois said with an oh-so innocent looking smile upon his face as he looked at Claude coyly with the smile of a mischievous devil.
Claude smiled patronizingly at his current 'master' as he did as what was told of him, until the other is satisfied, and already planning on crashing a party that he was not invited to.
"Have you any news?" Kagome asked one of the few people that have returned from their trips, eager for some news.
"No milady," one of the male that took the lead shook his head as the rest continue to hold onto various other things despite of their parcel sizes easily.
"Well, keep an ear out for news from there," she says somewhat dejected at the lack of news. "I had our staff prepared a meal for all of you in the kitchen once you are done," she told them, watching them nod their head in acknowledgement of what she was telling them.
Down the hallway, she stopped before of a mirror big enough for an art piece as she looked at herself in it. Dressed in lavish silk of raspberry with intricate embellishment of lace and crystals that made her stood out. Her lips tainted pinkish as is her face, colored lightly with blush as she saw how different she looks now.
Will they recognize her if they were to see her now, she wondered, a mocking smile upon her lips as she looked into the mirror her. Her neck and ears adorned with the jewelry that Claude had gifted her, diamonds that sparkled like stars in the night skies and even in the dark. Averting her eyes from looking at her own face, Kagome checked her clothes, making sure that nothing is out of place as she gave herself an overall look through before moving on into a quite drawing room where she knows is hardly ever occupied by anyone, not even by the guests.
Just as she was about the enter, she heard voices coming from inside as she stopped in her steps, and turned away to go towards another path that leads elsewhere, and away from the crowd. Tonight it is mainly a formality and out of friendship that she makes an appearance, but it does not mean that she has to be there all the time, constantly mingle with the other guests.
"My Lady," someone called out to her, grabbing her by her waist as she was spin in the arms of whoever it was that had caught her as she spun to face the other.
"Lord Grey," Kagome called out in surprise as she pushed herself out of his arms.
"You are deeply missed in the party," he told her with a charming smile to which she smiled and moved away from him.
"I need some time to myself Lord Grey, the party is a little overwhelming for me," Kagome added as she excused herself and left from one of the many doors that lead out, and away.
Spreading out her senses, she felt no one near her, even if there is, they are either hiding themselves too well that she is unable to sense them or that they are just staying silent and watching her every move. The fact that she felt no hostility left her feeling slightly at ease as she moved onwards through the hall.
"Kagome," someone called out to her as she did not bother stopping for a moment, instead choosing to continue walking.
"Kagome," again, that person called out to her, this time a little more sadly and desperately as the said person suddenly appears before of her.
"Kagome-chan," he called out to her softly a hurt look in his eyes, but that flashes by quickly as he approached her.
She stopped, looking at the good looking male that had stopped her, an indifferent and uninterested look upon her face as she faced him, finally stopping in her tracks as their eyes met.
"I miss you," he said, pulling her into his arms, as she stiffly moved against him, trying to pull away, but he did not give her that chance to.
"I did not mean to be mean or rude to you," he confessed to her, hugging her tightly as he showed no signs of letting her go.
Her eyes scanned in the darkness around of them as she continued to move forward, purposefully ignoring the other. Claude did not take that as a means of simply going away, instead he continued following after her, approaching her despite of her cold shoulder.
"I'm busy," Kagome told him coolly, looking at the crowd not too far away, some dancing, others gathered around chatting and gossiping as they pointed discreetly to some of the people.
"I'll come back again tonight," Claude told her, a quick kiss to the side of her exposed neck, pleased that she is wearing the jewelry that he had given as he disappeared quickly before anyone else could see them together.
Hannah was watching every move, not with her own eyes, but with others that serves her as they gave her a detailed update of it all. Kagome was waltz away gracefully by a number of people, one of the many included Grey who talked to her almost candidly if not flirtingly. There were eyes on her, but what they were planning or thinking of was something that even she did not know, neither did it bother her.
And when night comes, Kagome did not saw Claude or anyone else for that matter, only Marie who served her and helped her get ready for bed. Though she could not say that she was disappointed that he did not keep his promise to her, but neither did she let it get to her as she slip under the covers of her warm bed and fell asleep after some tossing.
