     I hummed as I poured the Master's Darjeeling blend tea in the tea pot. I made sure the tea was flavorful and hot for him and his guests. I put the milk and sugar on the trolly next to the teapot. Then I placed the appropriate amount of cups and plates on the trolly. The last thing on the trolly was some silverware and the plate of goodies I made.

     I nodded in happiness as I looked at my accomplishment. I could hear the other three yelling about the manor trying to catch some rats. I heard in the distance the three carriages push off, telling me that the rude guests were gone. I pushed the trolly up to the drawing room where the Master and his guests were. Once I got there, I lightly knocked on the door. Light footsteps approached the door, it opened and Sebastian was on the other side. I silently bowed my head to the head butler. He stepped aside and allowed me in. I saw two Chinese people sitting on the couch, one named Lau while a lady was sitting on one of the chairs, named Madam Red. A butler was hanging behind her. I looked to Ciel and placed a hand over my chest and gave a small bow. I slowly backed away and stood by the wall, allowing Sebastian to take the floor.

      "Your tea." Sebastian handed two cups of tea to the Chinese people. "We have a special Darjeeling blend to offer from Fortnum and Mason today."

     "Smells lovely." The Chinese man smiled before he took a sip. "Tea can be excellent when made well."

     The butler next to me looked to Sebastian with awe. He was quietly stammering. I softly smiled, finding him too cute.

     "Grell." The lady in red called.

     "Uh, yes, my lady." The butler responded back.

     "Learn something from Sebastian." The lady said. The butler lowered his head.

     "Yes." He said.

     Grell?! I flinched as I looked to the butler. Oh, boy! I bit my bottom lip, catching some eyes.

      "You all right Kagome?" Sebastian asked.

     "Perfectly fine." I smiled and bowed. I glanced over to Grell, who's eyes sparkled when he heard my name. Now, I had a pain in the ass to deal with.

     "Just look at him. I mean, this physique!" The lady said while she rubbed Sebastian on the ass. I blushed when I saw this. Sebastian on the other hand looked like he was shivering and not out of pleasure. "You should quit this country job and come work for me in the city!"

     Ciel cleared his throat. "Madam Red." He warned.

     "Oh, sorry!" She smiled and rubbed the back of her head. "I couldn't help it. He looked like he needed a physical. Just a doctor's habit."

      I could feel the silent anger radiate off Ciel. "Indeed. But no need to worry, Kagome is our physician here. Everyone is perfectly healthy." He warned his Aunt.

     Lau placed his cup down onto the table. "So, do you believe the drug trafficker you're after was one of your guests today?" Lau asked as he stood.

     "Perhaps." Ciel sipped his tea.

     "Why not leave the extermination to Lau? A rat knows best where a rat's nest is, doesn't he?" Madam Red spoke.

      "I'm but a tame guinea pig dedicated to my lord." Lau smiled, placed his hand on Ciel's head and leaned forward. "If the earl instructs me not to act, I'm bound to do nothing."

     "Watch it!" Madam Red hissed as she snatched up Ciel in her arms, away from Lau. "You'd best keep your filthy paws off my darling nephew!"

     "You wound me!" Lau stood up, sighing and shrugged. "I would never paw at him in his own home, dear Madam."
