This is such a filler chapter I'll go ahead and tell you. I apologize, but I just wasn't feeling it. It has information and stuff in it though. I promise the next one will be better.
The Undertaker and I ate in comfortable silence, simply enjoying each other's company. I could only wonder what we were now, after our moment in the bedroom it was evident that we both harbored feelings for one another. Kami knows that I do. He has awakened a new array of feelings that I was so unaccustomed to and unaware I had.
I took a quick glance at him as he stood up as the front door bell rang signaling an incoming customer. I put my plate in the sink and walked into the front where Sebastian stood at the counter, Ciel nowhere to be found. I felt rage build inside me as I looked at the demon butler. His lips curved upward in a smirk,
"Ah, Lucia. So glad that you're doing well. I was quite worried about you." He said in a voice of mock care.
As I began walking towards them the Undertaker stepped in front of me, "Calm down. Believe me, as much as I would like to rip out the demon's throat I must restrain." He said, his lips brushing my ear.
I took a deep breath and composed myself, "Why?" I asked, my voice shaking as I tried to control the whirling emotions that were coursing through me.
"My dear, now is not the time nor the place for such explanations that would take so much time to fully explain." He said with a dark chuckle.
I slammed my fist down on the counter top, "You owe at least an explanation for the years of Hell I was put through!" I yelled shaking with a boiling anger.
Sebastian only laughed as his burnt crimson eyes turned into a feral fuchsia.
"Lucia, you will always be mine. No matter where you hide, or where you run. I will follow you and I will find you." His voice was dark and guttural, like an animal.
I watched as he disappeared with a puff of black smoke filling the room, the scent burned my nostrils and made my eyes spring up with tears. I reached out blindly in search of the Undertaker in hopes that he was somewhere close to me.
"Lucia?" The Undertaker called as he grabbed me and pulled his cloak around me, shielding me from the harmful effects of the smoke.
We tumbled into my bed room, both of us coughing as we tried to fill our lungs with fresh air. I let out a sigh.
"I swear I'm going to kill him." The Undertaker said, his voiced filled with a dark tone that I had never heard him speak with.
I sat up from my spot on top of the Undertaker and blushed quickly removing myself from him.
"Not if I kill him first. I don't even totally understand what he was talking about! How am I his, we don't have a contract made, he has no rule over me. I just- I don't understand." I said exasperated.
"Hey, don't worry. I know everything is still in a haze to you. I promise to figure it all out for you. I'm gonna help you through this. I won't leave you." He whispered as he moved a stray strand of hair out of my face. I was mesmerized by his green eyes, they we captivating and could suck you into them in a second.
"What are you Undertaker?" I asked absent mindedly as I traced a finger over his scar on his face. I could feel his muscles tense and he closed his eyes with a sigh.
"Do you really want to know Love?"
"Yes."
He came ad sat beside me, taking my hand in his.
"I'm not a good person Lucia, I can tell you that much now. I was a shinigami, a Grim Reaper like William and Grell. I was actually one of the most famous Grim Reapers there ever was. I used to just simply reaper the souls of the living like any normal reaper. But then I began to preform experiments on them for my own recreational pleasures. I was pretty much banished from the Society." He said looking away, his voice was distant and far away. He was physically here with me, but I could tell he was thinking back to distant time.
"If you weren't a good person, you wouldn't have taken me in. You wouldn't care for me in the way that you do, I know you're afraid of the darkness in you, but there is also good there that you can't ignore. I'm afraid of myself. I remember my past, but I still can't seem to figure out who I really am." I wiped away tears that threatened to fall down my cheeks.
"Aw, Lucia please don't shed tears. Not for me nor for you. We'll make it through this don't worry." He pulled me into him and held me tightly.
"How do you plan to help me?" I asked pulling away slightly.
"I need to get in contact with William and have him look up a few things from the Shinigami Library. I'll begin my own research. But I figure you must have some sort of powers locked within you just waiting to be unleashed. And I plan to help train you, and then we'll take on Sebastian and make him pay for everything that he has put you through." He took my cheeks in his hands and gave me a firm kiss, smiling his old infamous grin that made my heart flutter.
