Ciel knew something was off when he noticed Sebastian eyeing Amu in the dining room when she came in. The smug grin on his face and the embarrassed redness that adorned her cheeks were enough to tell him that something had happened, but what concerned him was that she seemed to be wary around Ciel himself these past few days. The earl frowned irritably, deep in thought.

What happened between them?

The next day, Amu returned to her room after her morning bath in a pleasant mood, but of course, it was short-lived when she opened the door and found Ciel looking at her intently, already waiting for her.

Without a word, Ciel beckons her over, and Amu obeys. Ciel ever so gently holds her small hand in his. Amu smiles shyly at his softness yet squeals in surprise when Ciel pulls her into his embrace, the pinkette straddling him.

"M-master..."

The earl smirks, kissing her cheek with his dominant hand as her face reddened under his touch. "I heard Cheslock has been flirting with you lately. Snake shared his observations with me, and trust me when I tell you, I have never been more annoyed."

Amu's eyelashes fluttered. Did he know what happened with Cheslock the other day?

Goodness, how long has Snake been in the shadows, watching? She gulps, remembering Ciel's anger from the Easter Party. Amu bites her lip as Ciel's fingers travel downward to her neck to unbutton her blouse, "M-milord, I just had my bath. W-we shouldn't-"

Amu squeaks when Ciels leans his head forward and licks at her throat. He takes it a step further and uses his lips to nip at her neck gently. Amu moaned, unable to help herself. There were butterflies in her stomach, and she was nervous, yet she couldn't stop this elated feeling that Ciel was finally touching her. Slowly, Ciel exposes his maid's bare shoulders before sucking on her neck, her maid uniform unbuttoned, exposing her growing cleavage and smooth tanned skin.

They did not speak, Amu kissing the top of Ciel's head, hair, and brow each time she could. The earl took every opportunity to adorn her neck with lovebites as her affectionate kiss egged him on. Amu was so warm and sweet in his lap that he could not fathom this happiness that filled him.

Cyan and Sieran stood, floating in the corner of the room, looking on worriedly. Ciel hadn't been this bold with Amu since their first kiss.

Sieran froze. Did Sebastian-?

That night, Amu was humming to herself, cleaning the silverware in the dining room. The moment of peace was short-lived when she sensed her superior's presence in the room. She groaned, finding Sebastian again in her room. Amu sighed irritably before shooting him a glare, "Get out."

Sebastian smirked as if she said something entertaining, "No, sweet child. You and I need to speak."

"We have nothing to talk about."

"You and the young master had been intimate, correct? You kept touching your neck throughout dinner."

Amu lowered her eyes, redness coming across her features, but Sebastian was quick. He was in front of her in a second, lifting her face to meet his eye level. "You and I both know that the more you align yourself with the young master, the more I will punish you."

Amu glares at him, but the head butler is undeterred. He lifts her head by her soft locks of hair, his lips against her chin.

"Sebas-!"

Sebastian sank his teeth into her neck without warning, and he moaned from her warmth, her blood giving him energy. He could feel her desire rising within when he had his fill - Sebastian tilted his head to look at her, and her face looked so sweet, it made him hungry all over again. He licks his lips when he finishes, his eyes glazed over and pink.

"Kiss me."

"NO!" Ciel opened the doors to his parlour room, stepping out of hiding. "This is an order! Let her go!"

Amu got the opportunity to see that Sebastian was startled, but it was brief. Sebastian slowly raised his posture to stand, and Ciel's blood boiled in his veins when he observed the multiple bite marks on the skin of his maid's neck.

"Wha-? How long have you been drinking her blood like this?!"

Amu's face was beet red; she wanted to crawl into a hole. Kurosu spoke up, looking at Ciel disbelievingly. "You gave her those marks earlier this afternoon, Phantomhive. Don't you remember?"

Ciel frowned, confused, "What the hell are you on about?"

Amu blinked, turning to look back at him. Did he forget what had happened this morning when he surprised her in her room?

Ciel frowns deeply, "I'm pretty sure I would remember having Amu in my arms for something like that."

The pinkette looks at her guardian character, and they are both greatly puzzled, but Sieran clarifies everything. "Sebastian took over your body like he did the first time you kissed Amulette."

"WHAT?!"

Sebastian sighed, "I didn't think either of you would tell him."

"What the hell you mean he took over my body?!"

Cyan tried calming his bearer, keeping an eye on the pinkette as her face grew ashened. "When the both of you were kissing the first time, Sebastian took over your body and flipped Amelia over - he was in control until he dismissed her from the room."

Amu covered her face with her hands, good gracious. She enjoyed kissing Ciel that night and had to admit she was excited when Ciel flipped her on the bed that time. Fuck, it was Sebastian?!

Ciel looked murderous, while Sebastian was just bemused. Amu could almost hear Ciel's rage bubbling. "How many times did you take over my body to kiss her?"

"Twice, once as Sieran mentioned and earlier today."

Ciel looked downright murderous. He lunged, but Amu held him back, "Stop it!"

"Why the hell aren't you angry?! He kissed you using me! You are mine!"

Ciel watched as tears prick into pinkette's eyes, surprising him. "Wha-?"

"I can't be yours, and you can't be mine. I am succubus, Ciel; if I allow myself to love you freely, you would be a slave to me. I can never do that to you."

The earl was surprised by her tone's softness and sincerity; it was evident on her face that she had returned his feelings. "Amu, we-"

"I think it's time we retire for the night."

Ciel protests, but Sebastian wouldn't have it. Amu waves weakly at both of them, turning away when she feels the tears forming before slowly falling down her face.

Edward sighed when he returned to his townhouse room at midnight, still disappointed by his near miss with Amy the previous day. Edward turns slightly to bolt his door, and as he turns back to the front, he is halfway taking off his blazer when Edward finally notices Amy there, calmly sitting in his bed and wearing one of his uniform white dress shirts. Edward couldn't suppress the instinctive gulp in their throat when he realised she had on the shortest pair of bloomers he had ever seen from how she adjusted her hips to lift the shirt above her thighs to show her long legs stretching out on his bed. Edward couldn't help himself. He pinched the skin of his hand and was genuinely surprised it hurt.

"You're not dreaming."

Amy's voice was soft, but he could still hear it. Her sweet, rosy expression was there, and it made him melt on the inside.

He cautiously approached and slowly sat on the bed, studying her. Amy's hair looked silkier than ever. The girl's lips looked plump and inviting, and her blushing cheeks made his hands sweat just at the thoughts he was having in his head.

She turned her body to face him, and Edward swallowed. The dress shirt was unbuttoned and gave way a little, exposing a lavender-purple bodice. The generous necalattoge gave him an ample view of what he had guiltily fantasised about since their first meeting.

"A-amelia"

She smirked at him, and that was his end.
