Chapter 16
I walked to my room door my pride and dignity at my legs.
"Get out"
What did I do…did I say something wrong, did I do something wrong. My body felt surprisingly heavy and so did my head. Closing the door behind me I walked to my bed and without switching on the lights I found it with ease falling on it pulling my body into the middle where I curled into a ball and hugged my knees to my chest. My body was still warm, an exotic feeling called ecstasy still running through it but it was faint, falling, disappearing, leaving. Of course because we were no longer connected and like a broken toy our connection was snapped in two by those very words
Get Out
I rose up. Why am I being so emotional, for all I knew he was a demon. He lived for years upon years centuries probably millennia and for all I knew he could have had sex with many other women and for all I knew….I could probably be the worse
Many reasons why he could have said that.
He was unsatisfied
He wasn't feeling it
He felt distracted
He lost it halfway
He got disgusted
He became unintresed
He wanted something else
He was beginning to get bored
He hated it
Yes…..many reason why he could have told me to get out, I thought staring down into my hands only to realize they began getting wet, some droplets of liquid began falling on then causing the skin to become moist.
Am-Am I crying
I laughed. How foolish of me. Crying over a demon, just what has become over me. So pitiful. So weak. I need to get rid of this, this sorrowful weakness the answer is clear. I should weep some more, remove this sadness from my system, yes. It's not the first….
That I've felt such horrible pain.
The morning came quickly the sun blasting through the glass doors of my balcony. For some foolish reason my weeping had ran over into the morning and I only had taken 4 hours of sleep.
Maybe…I should sleep a bit more.
MEANWHILE...
"She hasn't been out her room"
"Yes" Ceil said pouring him a cup of tea
"I went in and she was covered under the clothes an unmoving lump she was. I placed her breakfast on the table and she didn't even stir."
"I see"
Ceil looked at him and looked away staring at his master in his bed. You shouldn't say anything your still in bed too.
"Are you curious"
"Depends. Your odd feeding that you did last night or whatever events that happened between you and Sanelle"
"Miss…Collonae… for you, but to sum it up it would be both"
Ceil remained silent.
"This has never taken place before, but yesterday I had a bountiful soul. She was delightful. Lust, pleasure, pain, suffering, children, hopes, sacrificing, motherly love."
"Sound like a hard working singled parent prostitute"
"Ah yes that's what she was"
"According to your teachings they have a number 15 rank on the food charts"
"True true…I'm glad you remember the common sense of a demon" he said complimenting the boy who lightly blushed, "Well as I was saying…"
How odd, today I feel like I can talk freely with him. He seems in a rather off mode not in a bad way since he seems a bit self puzzled, not only that but I don't feel that scared.
"…and then I left her body there and returned to the mansion. I engaged with Sanelle in various activities.
Activities?
"I began kissing her, then making love to her…that's when my instinct was driven mad…I felt…hungry"
Ceil looked at him for a good two seconds and paused. He placed his hand over his mouth clearing his throat he didn't want to laugh at this man.
"You don't get it don't you" He said to Ceil. "I felt like I was in a paranoid mode. My demon inside began taking over."
"That's impossible….you just ate a soul"
"I had to string the contract"
The air fell silent.
"I had to make her say my name"
"Say my name."
Ciel raised an eyebrow… "And when I did…the only thing I gained was a few minutes of restraint. I had to tell her to leave immediately"
"Get out"
"And then when I did, I had to string myself even harder" He said looking at the teen.
Ceil looked at the wall and smile.
"That would explain your contract pentagram on the wall drawn in your blood?"
"You catch on quickly" He commented sarcastically
"So I now say that I was worried. The same night I mailed a fellow friend of mind… Claude"
Ceil rose an eyebrow
"He mailed me back this morning" He said pulling out an unsealed envelope
Ciel paused a bit taking this in. String the contract. He knew what that was….Sebastian taught him. In his contract that wasn't needed since Sebastian was always given order. So in other word he had to command the contract by telling Sebastian what to do by showing his pentagram on his body and making a request. However, there are times in a contract when a demon can become overwhelmed with lust desire or pain that he is driven into a paranoid state that usually drives him to the edge. At this point command the contract is ineffective and Stringing the contract has to be done. Stringing the contract is the opposite. While in the command the human commands the demon, in stringing the demon commands him. This can be by using the rules of the contract to pent down one's body in an immobile state. Immense energy is needed and will power since that demon's will power has to be stronger than his hunger for lust pain or desire. Which was what happened to Sebastian. A next thing was if he had eaten a soul, why did he go in a paranoid state for that woman
"So what did Claude say?"
"Oh…his reply…he says he's coming this morning"
"I see"
"…and"
"And"
"The contract between Sanelle and I needs to be broken"
