The long lost lover (Black Butler Story) Sebastian x Lucretia

Finding out the truth

  ༺⌛☠Sebastian's POV☠⌛༻
After a while we arrived back home. "So what's your plan then?" Horace asked. "I will ask the young lord if we can start a ball tomorrow and invite random guests. If i see a woman wearing a hood or cloak and wearing a layered dress or skirt that is in front short and back long then i know that she is one of the witches. But first i need to make sure that she is the witch so i ask her to dance with me. While we are dancing i will recognize the witch by her parfume and also her skin. If i recognized the witch, i will say that i know that she's the witch and ask her about the curse she gave me and the other victims." I explained. "That's smart. But what if she refuses to dance?" Horace asked. "Seriously, which person doesn't want to dance with a handsome demon? If she wants to refuse, i will make up her mind." I answered. "You are even saying that you are handsome?" Horace said. "What? I saw that most person's fell for me, so that obviously says that i must be handsome. Even your mistress says it." I said to him. "Yeah i know. But what am i going to do?" Horace asked. "You make sure that you block the entrance while i am dancing with her. It's to make sure that she can't escape." I explained. "Sounds easy to do." Horace said. "Good. Over a few hours, it will be time to wake up my young master so that i can ask him. I will patrol the hallways again to see if nobody is sneaking around." I said to him and left.

I woke up in my bed and heard something collapse... Wait... SEBASTIAN! i immediately stood up and opened the door hurriedly and it woke Horace up. "Mistress." I hear Horace say and also stood up and ran after me. I looked through the rooms and saw Sebastian lying on the ground again near his room, but this time it got worse. We turned him around again so he was lying on his back. His skin was pale and his breathing was heavily. He was also sweating very much and more blood came out of his nose and went towards his mouth. The servants also were up and ran towards us again and even the young master. "What the hell is wrong with Sebastian!?" Ciel yelled concerned. "He is cursed by a witch and this curse will be worser and worser!" I answered him. "Horace we'll take him to his room and lie on his bed so he is comfortable." I said to him and we carried Sebastian to his bed and slowly lie him down. Certainly i saw tears streaming down his cheeks. "What must we do?!" Horace asked worried. "There is nothing that you can do. I can't heal him from the curse! Only when the witches are dead." I said to him. "I never saw Sebastian cry in my whole life. Come on wake up dog!" Ciel yelled at him but Sebastian was still in this curse. "Didn't you hear me! We have a contract! Don't you mess with me Sebastian!" Ciel yelled and slapped him across his face to see if he would wake up. But still nothing. "Please everybody leave the room! Horace and i need some time alone." I said to them and they looked at eachother confused. "Just leave! Unless you want Sebastian to die!" I yelled at them and they left the room immediately.

I slowly opened my eyes and saw Celia and Horace standing next to my bed. "Wh-What ha-happened?" I asked confused while recovering. "You had that curse again. This time you looked badly as hell." Celia answered. "It took you an hour to recover from that curse. Are you the victim now?" Horace asked. "Yes, but i wish not to talk about how i die." I said and sighed. "But you can trust us, infact we've helped you with recovering from the curse when i ordered the servants and Ciel out the room." Celia said. "You did? I couldn't bare this curse. It was like that you was forever in pain and hadn't much choice but to put yourself down out of misery. Very well, in the visions i was murdered by the Laevateinn. But that isn't the worse, Amy had the Laevateinn and she was the one who killed me. I saw myself dead and the contract mark gone. I was lying there lifeless like any human being. The same symbol on the other bodies was also carved on my chest." I explained. "That's horrible! Being killed with a Laevateinn by your lover." Horace said. "We need to find the 3 witches! If we don't then this could be my death!" I said to them. "I asked Ciel if we could ready a ball today and he said that it is fine." Horace said. "Good! We will prepare the ball now and invite guests." I said and we went away. After we prepared the ball we started to invite people to the ball and after a few hours we had many people dancing. I couldn't see a woman that wears a black dress or a layered skirt with front short and back long. "It seems she isn't coming." Horace said while we watched the others dance to the music. We were standing on some steps of the stairs to have a great view among the crowd. "She can come in any minute now. You go to the front door and when she steps in i ask her to dance. When she is known that she is a witch, i will give you a signal to close the door so she can't escape." I said to Horace. "Alright." Horace said and he maneuvered through the dancing crowd to the front door. Now we wait until the witch comes in... And after a few minutes she finally arrived. She wears indeed a black skirt and leggings aswell. She was a lady in black. The woman looked around the crowd and saw me walking towards her. She had black hair and purple eyes. "Hello milady, may i introduce myself. I am the butler of Phantomhive and i am pleased to have you here in this marvelous ball. And who are you if i may ask?" I asked kindly and kissed her black gloved hand. "My name is Shiva Hennessey." The lady answered. "Shall we dance on this waltz milady?" I asked her. "Why not." She smiled and i smiled back. I put my hand in hers and the other around her waist while her other hand was on my shoulder. "So where do you live?" I asked her. "Somewhere in London. I have a manor." She answered. "Interesting... Do you also have any pets?" I asked trying to recognize if she is the witch. "No not at all." She answered. Not at all? That isn't true, she has 2 cats. I saw them with my own demon eyes. "You should atleast have a cat. They are so adorable." I smiled. "I haven't thought of that. Maybe i should buy a cat since my sister likes them. It's also almost my sister's birthday and maybe i will give her a cat as a gift." She said. "You know, for a butler you really look young and... Handsome aswell." She said. "Well thank you." I thanked her. She is also trying to flirt with me like Celia did. Why are they so attracted to me? Because i am a demon and she the witch? Maybe witches are attracted to demons, but Celia can't be a witch. She helps me finding them... "So do you believe in demons?" I asked her. "Maybe. Some say they exist and some say they don't. I only believe in demons when i see one." She answered. "Good answer. I would tell the same if i was a human." I smiled wickedly. She gasped and immediately knew what i am. "So it is you... Sebastian Michaelis." She said disgusted. "And you are the witch but you lied about your name." I said to her and she looked confused. "What do you mean demon?" She asked. "You are not Shiva Hennessey. You are Kathleen Linares who i met at your home." I said to her. "How do you know?" She asked surprised. "I saw you killing Fred in this appearance and heard Cornelius's voice. There is no doubt that you are the witch." I said to her and she pulled herself away. "You are clever Sebastian. But you can't stop me." She said and ran towards the front door but Horace barricaded the front door so she couldn't escape. She was shocked and i came behind her. "What's wrong witch? Afraid to be known that you are the killer in London?" I said to her. She turned around and wanted to slap me but i grabbed her wrist. "Now tell me about the curse you gave me." I ordered her. "You can't do anything about this curse for as long you are a slave for the witch you serve!" Shiva yelled angry and the crowd looked at us and the music stopped. "Now the crowd is looking at you of what you just say. They probably think that you are the witch what everyone was talking about." I said to her and smirked. She looked away from the crowd and breathed heavily. "What's wrong? Scared of being stared by people who now know that you are the witch?" I smirked still holding her wrist and she was silent. "Now tell me about the curse. If you tell me, i will let you free unharmed. Or we can do the hard way." I said to her. She was silent for a while. "If you harm me then the people could see you harming me. And they would then blame on you that you serve the witch." She said angry. "Clever. But i already knew that i wouldn't harm you here because everybody can see it. If you don't tell me now..." I ordered her and brought my lips closer to her ear. "Then i will make you tell me." I whispered seductively. "Argh! I won't fall for this seducing! That's what you only are good at it! Seducing people to say what you wanted to know! Well i won't fall for that demon!" She yelled and the crowd was shocked knowing my true identity. "Very well..." I said and pulled her glove off. She was surprised at the action. I showed her palm and a seal was glowing out of her palm and showed the crowd. "Do you see this?" I said to them and the crowd gasped at the seal. "This is the same seal that were on the dead bodies in London. She was the murderer who killed innocent peoples!" I said at them. "And also cursed them before their death." I said to them. "Audite me, et audi vocem. Daemonis verba turpia. Facimus quod nobis deos, meque adeo ut oboediatis verbis meis manibus dico Daemonis." She spoke to the crowd which i didn't understand. "Kill the demon! Burn the devil!" I heard the crowd yell. "What did you do." I asked her and she smiled. "I turned the crowd against you demon." She laughed and the crowd went towards me. Horace stepped in. "In pythonissam est mendax. Quod si pretium ei hypnotize vobis credere. Si enim facientes feceritis omnia mandata eius et omnis domus tua in faciem benedixerit tibi." Horace also said the same language to the crowd. "The witch will curse us all and our families! Kill her!" The crowd yelled and went towards her. "You! You will pay for this!" She said angry.
