Wait... Did he just said his name is Ash Landers? Where did I heard this name before? It sounds so familiar... Where do I know him from?... I looked up at the strange man and frowned, trying to figure out what he was planning to do with me. I knew he was bad since he kidnapped me and locked me in a cell full of skeletons, but the more I looked at him the more he reminded me of an angel, a fallen angel that is.

There is something that Ciel doesn't know about me and that is that I have the ability to feel when someone was human or not, but I only learned how to figure out  what exactly they are when I turned 14. I learned to recognize shinigami, demons and angels by the special air that they had around them. Demons had this thing about them that for me screamed "FIRE", shinigami had this death-like air about them and angels had this cold yet welcoming sensation that drew you to them.

"Your family is one of the most impure families in the world, but don't worry, lady Phantomhive. I will make sure you will be cleaned soon so you can be able to join your parents."

"I'm sorry, but I promised my late father that we won't die until we have at least a grandchild each and I never go back on my word."I give him a superior smile before walking back to the bed in the cell.

"Excuse me, lady Phantomhive, but can I ask why do you have that wound on your leg?" When the words came out of his mouth I stopped dead in my tracks. I turned a little just so I could glance at him for a moment before looking away again.

"... I don't like to talk about it...."

"Oh? But it looks really painful. Hold on. I will get some bandages." What the hell? Even if he kidnapped me he still worries about my health?

"There's no need to... It's been like this since I got it... It's been 5 years and I am used to it by now. I guess my mother was right when she said that I was cursed from the moment I took my first breath..."

"That's because your family is unclean and only brings misfortune to anyone they get in contact with and so I took the responsibility to purify you."

"I'm not a religious person, my dear angel, but I know for a fact that God loves his children however they may turn out to be and lets them choose their path in life. He doesn't get involved in their lives. Then my question for you, sweet angel, is why do you feel the need to get involved?"I reached out my hand through the bars of the cell and softly caressed his cheek while he was still in a state of shock. Unfortunately he soon came back to his senses and slapped my hand away angrily.

"Don't you dare touch me again, you dirty human!"He yelled in my face before starting to walk out of the dungeon I was held in.

"Geez... I was just trying to show you some affection since you look so lonely. No need to act like a douchebag. And just so you know, you are far more dirty than me! At least I see my own sins and accept my punishment, but you are too blind to see your own sins because of your foolish ways. You'll end up falling so hard that your wings will shatter! I really pity you, my little angel! Even if you are probably thousands of years old you are still as foolish as a little child, thinking everything you do is for the best for us humans. I can't see you as anything else but a fai-"

Before she could finish her sentence I teared the door to the cell down before making my way to the pathetic human girl and grabbing her by the neck. I gave her neck a squeeze and she chocked out a cry of pain before I pinned her to the cold wall of the cell, right next to a skeleton that was tied to it by some chains. I smirked the moment I saw her eyes widening at the sight of the skeleton and watched as she squirmed in my grasp in an attempt to escape or at least distance herself from it. However my smirk soon faded when I saw the strongest and most feared noblewoman in the whole kingdom breaking down in tears and shouting at the top of her lungs to get her away from the bones even though she could barely breathe because of my tight grasp on her neck.
