-LIZZY'S P.O.V.-

"I'll leave you to bathe in peace," Ciel said as he stood then made his way out of the room. I sighed once I was alone. I know much didn't happen to me but it was terrifying. I was afraid that I wouldn't see my family, friends and Ciel ever again. I was afraid that they would kill me or torture me. I was afraid of them hurting Rachel or my husband.

I picked my self up off the bed then headed into the bathroom. Once inside, I shut the door. I undressed, removed my bandages and lowered myself into the tub.

I took a look at my own body and sighed. I was covered in bruises, cuts, scrapes, dried blood.. I washed my body but couldn't rid myself of the feeling of being unclean and used. I grew frustrated and broke down into tears and sobs.

I couldn't help it. I felt disgust with myself, I couldn't look at my body nor myself in a mirror. I felt ashamed, dirty and gross. The sight of the bruises amd cuts made memories flood through my mind.

I had been touched, beatened, starved, assaulted in more than one way. Yet I was the one who felt the guilt. Even with Ciel by my side I felt lost and alone. I felt as if he didn't want me anymore. He hadn't looked directly at me since he saved me.

After taking a moment to calm down, I washed my hair and left the tub. I dried off, slipped into a fresh nightgown, and went back to the room.

I hesitated to look in the mirror but I did, only to change my mind and look away quickly. I ran a brush through my hair and Mey-Rin walked in a moment later to replace my bandages.

She scurried off soon after, leaving me in the room...

-CIEL'S P.O.V.-

I entered the room amd the mood felt all wrong. My usually cheerful and bright wife seemed just as depressed and serious as I. I was afraid to ask what had happened to her.

Everything I had loved about her emerald eyes had dissapeared. Now her eyes were glossy like if she were about to cry. I couldn't look at her in the eye, I blame myself for everything.

She looked at me, her eyes empty. I walked towards her amd pulled her into my arms, she didn't pull away. My wife buried her face in my chest and held onto me tightly.

"You won't get through this alone, I'm here.. I swear, I will make you smile again." Lizzy frowned but pulled me closer. I then pulled away and lead her to the bed where we took a seat.

"We need to talk about what happened. But we don't have to yet. You don't have to say anything you aren't comfortable with saying." I said, taking her hand.

She sighed and looked down. "I.. " Elizabeth finally looked at me.

"Did they--?" I said, holding in my anger and something that felt like tears.

"No, no... They touched me, they made me change in front of them. They beat me but their boss didn't let them do that....." Elizabeth explained. "But I feel dirty, wrong, humiliated.." Tears filled her bright eyes. "I was so afraid.." I pulled her close and let her cry once again. "I promise, I will never let anything bad happen to you again..."

I felt pure guilt hit my stomach. This was my fault, if it weren't for my work nothing would have ever happened to her. But that isn't the problem right now. Helping her get through this is my main goal.
