So this plays into the main story line but... it's more about Ran Mao and Lau. I loooove all the characters of Black butler. I was thinking of doing a few more short chapters about some other characters (Undertaker, Pluto, etc) and was wondering who you would like to see?

"Hello Ran Mao and thank you for showing up today. Would you like some tea?" I asked handing her a cup from the tray Sebastian had brought.

"Thank you" she said holding the steaming cup. Without missing a beat she took a sip, straightened, looked me in the eye and asked "What do you want?"

I hadn't much known the girl, she was permanently placed in Lau's lap but today she was sitting alone. She wore a longer dress and barley any make-up, looking much more professional than usual. Almost an intimidating sight.

I could feel a slow smile spread across my face. "The Chinese are rather picky about things and I was thinking you could do me a favor... I've gotten a side request from a personal someone about the Chinese Mafia. I need your pretty face to get in and find me out some things" She smiled matching mine.

"I'll do what you want but I want something in return" she nodded.

"I'll pay you of course, a very generous amount I assure you" I nodded back.

"Not money, Master Lau. I want his contract shortened to one year from the day I finish the mission." She straightened up even farther, chin held high.

"You want me to remove two years from his contract? One and a half years and you find a replacement for him." She nodded.

"We have a deal, I will supply you with someone as good as Master" Lau was disposable but I would need someone new to step in.

"Now Phantomhive, tell me what it is you need from the Chinese Mafia." She was smiling again and I knew I had picked the right person.

"There is a particular document that is needed from them, it states things about the increased immigration of the Chinese to London. Can you get it?" I asked.

"Give me the report on it and I assure you I'll get it" she said holding her hand out, which I slipped the report in. "Report to me in two days"

We finished our cups of tea in a comfortable silence while she looked over the papers and then said a good bye.

Lau:

Two weeks later

"Where is Ran Mao?" I asked for the millionth time this week. Ran La looked perplexed and a little afraid as I smashed a tea set on the floor.

"I'll go get her sir..." She hurried off out of the drawing room. For the past two weeks I'd barley seen any of my favorite servant.

I knew she wouldn't be coming back with her, Ran Mao wasn't here at the moment or she would be with me. She was running off to do Gods knows what without telling anyone.

When ten minutes passed and I had calmed down a little I started in one the paperwork I would need to get done by the end of the day.

I lost myself in reading, writing, sighing, checking, and phone calls for hours. I got much of the things I was behind on done and only snapped out of it when a knock came on the door.

"Master Lau, would you like some dinner?" Ran La asked quietly. "No thank you, but if you could tell me when Ran Mao gets in that would be great. Walk her directly up here" I said waving a hand to dismiss the girl.

I kept working until late, asking Ran La for a snack and hoping Ran Mao would get home but by the time midnight came around I ran out of things to do. I retired to the bedroom where she would normally be waiting for me but wasn't today.

She came creeping in the door, barley audible but it woke me up since I was only half asleep because I had been tossing and turning.

I shot up without even thinking about it and seized her shoulders. "Where have you been tonight? Where do you keep going?" I demanded.

I realized that when I pulled my hands away they were sticky, coated with a dark red. "Blood...what have you been up to little tiger?" I asked stroking her mortified face.

"I had an errand for Phantomhive. You're down to a year and a half My Lord" She whispered leaning into my hand.

"You stupid girl, what were you thinking?" I asked crushing her to my chest. Whatever she had done had to have been very dangerous if she was bloody and shaking the way she was.

"For Master, I helped..." her voice was nearly inaudible."Let's get in the shower okay?" I said pulling at the hem of her dress.

She nodded and walked to the bathroom with me while we stripped leaving clothes thrown where ever they lay on the way.

We stood in the pale light, I watched as she undid her hair and it fell in small waves down her back. A beautiful ebony that looked startling against her pale skin. Her back was turned and showed the soft curve of her ass and the delicious flare of her hips. When she turned I was automatically drawn to the swell of perky and full breasts.

She turned the water on hot and stepped in smiling. We got in and I washed and conditioned silky hair, rinsing away the blood and dirt from the work she had done that day. I ran the loofa over her body, helping to soothe the minor aches and pains.

We stepped out and toweled each other off, my mouth finally finding hers in a passionate kiss. Her mouth was lush and hot against mine, urging me on.

I didn't part from her as we walked to the bed and I laid her down, the pillows cushioning her head as damp hair fell around her like a halo.

I played my hands on her hips, fingers brushing lightly over the sensitive skin. She gasped and arched into my hand while I smiled through a wet kiss. I lightly traced the palm of my hands up and down her body while she was writhing under my touch.

"Master...are you mad?" She asked quietly. "You have to tell me, or else I get worried" I admitted grudgingly. "Are you proud?" almond glowing eyes looked up at me, seeking approvals.

"Yes, you did well" I said praising her with kisses down her body all the way to her womanly hips. "Master...ungh" she arched into my mouth as I traced her womanhood with my tongue, slipping it into the feminine gash.

I licked and sucked at her, listening to the exquisite sounds her beautiful mouth made. She tasted like Heaven but was so sinful this had to be something from Hell. I slipped a finger in her, feeling her heat clench around me. Her hips bucked, her body went rigid with pleasure.

She thrashed then, grasping the sheets and Cumming so hard she was shaking. I enjoyed the near scream of my name that came from swollen lips working mercilessly until I knew she was completely finished. I then swiped my tongue over her one last time to taste a little more, earning me a shudder, and released her.

Her face was flushed, eyes dilated in a content looking manner. She reached for me with her arms, cradling me between smooth and toned thighs.

It was my turn now to shake with anticipation as I positioned myself at her entrance. "Master...please" She whimpered and tipped her hips up, trying to take me in.

I pushed in barley, knowing I wouldn't last long like this. She flipped me over then and trapped me between her legs while lowering herself on me.

She bounced up and down as I touched the moonlight white of her skin, cupping her breasts and watching as she through her head back. I plunged in and out of the soft velvety heat that took me all in squeezing and massaging me perfectly.

My little tiger growled possessively and bit in to my shoulder, a punishing thing that she did every time, always leaving me bleeding. Everything was so heightened that I yelped at the pain but then commended the intense pleasure.

Matching my tigress I bit the same place she had gotten me and watched as the pain registered then faded into a pure bliss.

She started to cum around me and it was too much, I gripped her hips and hammered into her like someone possessed as we both cried out our release. White shaded my vision and all I knew was pleasure of the most earth shattering kind. She milked me for all I was worth, even drawing what felt like a second orgasm from me.

I wanted to tell her I loved her, whisper about the future I wanted and the deep feelings I had. Ran Mao though, would never give herself to me.

Ran Mao:

I collapsed on top of master, exhausted from our making up. This wasn't something that happened often but still...I loved him.

Yes, there was no other way around it; I was in a love so deep with him that it hurt. He slipped from my body causing me to whimper at the loss. To be close to him was all I ever thought of.

"Ran Mao" he whispered into my hair, wrapping me up and holding me to his chest. I nestled into the warmth, holding on to the feeling that no one else mattered for the time being.

He was a prince where he came from, not someone who could marry a girl who worked as a common whore like I did. Such a disgusting job and I owed him so much for pulling me out of it. He wanted to, begged me to be his time and again but I knew better. One day he would have someone who was arranged for him and I would leave him.

He would be disowned if he decided to try and make something out of this thing with me. I would not cause him that pain, losing his family and fortune for someone like me. No, I loved him far too much.

"Lau...I love you" I whispered, turning to face him. It was selfish but I loved hearing it, the plans he had and the things he wanted.

I noticed the bite on him looked particularly bad, like I had been very pissed off. Had I? Yes, but at the same time it wasn't really his fault. There was nothing he could do to change what this whole thing was, I wouldn't let him.

"I love you. Won't you rethink this whole thing?" He asked, kissing me tentivly, passionate and longing. "If you can do it without the loss of your family, I will marry you" I said as my usual response.

"I think we should have a child, don't you? Who cares about people who don't want to be part of this thing we have? I don't, really." I knew he half meant it, but he would be lost without his mother.

"A child would be nice some day soon... I think a baby would be wonderful to have around" I whispered closing my eyes. For now, I would indulge in the fantasy.

"Yes, they are quite a joy. You would be a wonderful mother" I nodded and drifted to sleep with dreams of the family I wanted so badly.

Ciel:

"Here you go, please get it out of my sight." I said handing the document to the English man. He snatched it and exited quickly.

"She did it Master?" Sebastian asked.

"Rather quickly to...she's very devoted to Lau, he's lucky" I said absently. "She's human isn't she? There just seems to be something...other worldly about the way she moves"

Sebastian cocked his head to the side. "I do believe there was a demon in her family tree some where rather recently. Its diluted but there" he nodded.

"That would explain it, but I do wonder about her loyalty..." I honestly wondered what it was she got from the whole thing.

"Master...why did you have her do it? You know you could have had someone else without losing time on that contract." Sebastian asked pleasantly, though it sounded painfuly fake.

"I simply wanted someone I knew would do the job fast and correctly." Although, that wasn't it was it? I wanted to let Lau and that poor girl find happiness. I would never say that out loud of course but lately I had been hoping for everyone around me to be happy.

"I see My Lord, well I would say it was a wise choice. She is very good" Sebastian poured my tea looking unfocused.

"Do you think...they'll be happy when they can leave?" I asked timidly.

"Are you searching for a happiness to My Lord?" Sebastian countered.

"Maybe I am, but where I would ever find it I don't know. When I get my revenge maybe I'll have it..." I mumbled.

"Master, sometimes things are right in front of you. Don't you wonder how everyone here can smile even though it's hard? They have each other. And you Master. Aren't you happy to have people who are glad to be with you?" It was more of a statement than a question and he departed without a response.

Happy because of me? Happy because they're all here?

Hardly.

I had a good time writing this one (Mayhaps a side story in the working?) Thanks for reading and reviews (really though, anyone else you want written you should say)
