*So silly of me I thought that I had already uploaded this chapter a long time ago. Instead it has been sitting in a folder on my computer. Sorry!
I had plans to go to town with Claude the next day. I wasn't particularly excited about going to town with him I was just excited about being able to go to town. I was daydreaming about town the moment I entered the house. I shut the door with my good arm and a smile on my face. My arm actually felt better these days I could move it inside my sling without mind numbing pain. Maybe I could see the doctor this week to see if it was time to come off. I am actually smiling for the first time in a long time. The business with Sebastian had really taken a bite there was no denying it. If I hadn't been a servant I wouldn't make any efforts to get out of bed in the morning. Sebastian had really done it.
Sophia locks the door behind herself and heads upstairs. Mey-Rin comes around from the kitchen out to the stairwell.
"What are you doing up?"
"None of your business Mey-Rin. Why don't you go back in the kitchen with Sebastian."
Mey-Rin turns up her nose but doesn't respond. Sophia stops on the first stair to glare at her.
"Well. Didn't you hear me?"
"Sebastian's not in the kitchen."
"Oh well have fun with whatever weirdness you two have going on."
"Have you seen him?"
Sophia wants to shoot Mey-Rin a smart remark or perhaps a smile but she can't decide. This was a golden moment. She looks at Mey-Rin whom has such a sad pathetic look on her face. Mey-Rin clearly wasn't in control of anything and her little act had fallen apart. Sophia noticed the look of failure in her eyes. She was at Sophia's mercy right now she could say anything to send Mey-Rin off on a wild goose chase. Mey-Rin would no doubt go because of her obsession with Sebastian. A million thoughts rushes though Sophia's head. She could say she had just slept with Sebastian, she could say he was deep in thought and left to be alone away from Mey-Rin, she could say anything that she wanted conjure up any old lie. A part of her hated Mey-Rin now the feelings she thought were hate before weren't at all they were only a strong dislike. Mey-Rin wasn't the only one Sophia had a flaming hate for Sebastian as well.
Sophia sighs.
"No Mey-Rin I haven't.
"Good."
"Whatever! You better hope he hasn't already found someone new. Not following his schedule is out of character for him. I have my own stuff to do bye."
"You better be on time in the morning."
"I have a feeling you will be very surprised tomorrow morning."
Mey-Rin rolls her eyes at Sophia.
"Such a bitch." Sophia mutters under her breath and continues upstairs. Mey-Rin watches her until she disappears out of sight.
I lay in bed that night with a small smile of satisfaction on my face. Truthfully I was only happy because I had something to hold over Mey-Rin. I was still hurting over Sebastian and I wanted him to hurt as well. I wanted them both to feel the surging pain that griped my heart each and every day. I snarled in the dark thinking about the two of them getting so close lately. He just went ahead and started up with her as soon as I was in a coma. He could have at least waited a little longer. I hated him for not waiting out of respect or whatever he felt for me. I loved him and he broke my heart. I was going to hurt him back somehow. Mey-Rin was stupid and delusional so I couldn't only be furious with her. Sebastian was more to blame than her. How could he do this after our talks and intimate relationship? Why would he throw us away? I just couldn't understand him. I didn't care if I ever did. Nothing he could ever say would justify this injustice. Sebastian was going to hurt like I did every moment that I wasn't with him. He had messed with the wrong girl and I was going to let him know it. I would never stop even if he would fall to both his knees and beg me please. I would laugh with mad laughter. He had made this happen, not me. I would make him suffer at every turn, every glance, and every second of the day. I could use Claude to do it. I could at least try Claude to see if Sebastian would have a reaction. I refuse to believe he is devoid of all emotion. He was a demon but some part of him had to feel something. I was going to find his weakness and grind him into sawdust. After all no one messed with Sophia and got away with it! Not Miss Wiser and certainly not any being that would purposely throw me away like fucking trash!

"Sebastian please." Say Ciel
"Master you must rest for the night." Says Sebastian.
"You will remain here until I fall asleep."
"Yes master."
"And you will not indulge again!" Ciel says in anger.
"I will remain by your side as promised." Says Sebastian.
Ciel rests his head back on his pillow.
"Whore."
"Master?"
"I was thinking of someone. You're here as per agreement. Am I correct?"
"Of course master." Says Sebastian as he bows.
"There used to be just you and me once upon a time. That's fine. Sophia will be taken care of tomorrow."
He looks to Sebastian to see any expression of dissatisfaction but Sebastian only stares back calmly. Pacts can be made with multiple souls and other non-souls all at the same time. Master Ciel was left grossly unaware.
