The Lady Shadowhive and her demon butler Lucius Dracovich

Unexpected Guest

Ciel's POV
Ugh how frustrating! I was throwing down the blueprints of the new doll factory we would be building in a small town outside london. The first doll that would be released was supposed to be a doll with ebony black hair and dark green eyes wearing a purple dress with gray lace. But the stupid idiots of my company messed up the coloring for her hair and now it was a blonde haired doll instead of black. This was annoying to me seeing as i was wanting to show the doll to Jade over breakfast. But this doll was not what i wanted, it had blonde hair, dark green eyes and still wore the purple dress originally designed for it. I sighed as i went over and wrote down the notes on the appropriate pages and signed my signature where it was needed. I did not know how long i had been up at this point, but i was not interested in eating and lost myself in the pages of my work. I did not even hear the echoed sound of his footsteps as he entered the room.

"Young Master"

I looked up from the desk and saw Sebastian standing there in the doorway, he was dressed in his normal attire as he made his way over to me.

"What is it! I'm trying to finish my work so that i may enjoy breakfast with Jade."

"The lady shadowhive is waiting for you in the dining room."

My eyes widened and i jumped from my desk walking out into the hallway and down the stairs with Sebastian following behind me trying to mutter something. But i was not listening to his words, i was focusing on the fact he didnt tell me that she had woken up. I stopped in front of the doors and fixed my suit from the wrinkles of my suit and waited for Sebastian to open the doors. Once i was finished Sebastian once again repeated what he had been trying to tell me.

"Young Master i have a sense that we may receive company today."

I looked at him quizzically, i was not aware of any guests that had requested to see me.

"And who exactly is it that will be coming?"

"That my young lord i am not sure of. But i can see that the young lady is in the dining room waiting for you."

I turned back to the door and walked inside the dining room, i was met with the beautiful smile she wore on her face. She was dressed so simply and yet it seemed elegant the way the colors contrasted against her slightly tanned skin. The long slender gray with the dark blue sheer covering over it was a beautiful combination of colors as she began speaking to me softly.

"My dearest Ciel, i'm so glad you made it to breakfast this morning, i was afraid you may not show."

I walked over to my seat that resided at the head of the table and kissed her hand lightly while replying.

"On the contrary my lady, i had buried myself in my work so that i may spend more time with you. In my efforts i lost track of the time, i would never purposely avoid missing a meal with you my dear."

She chuckled softly as she began serving herself some of the food that laid before us. A large omelette with bits of ham and hash brown were on small plates with the appropriate serving size of two people. She seemed very pleased by this breakfast selection as she ate slowly as if to savor each bite. I couldn't stop looking at her, the way she looked down at her food made her profile seem silhouetted against the background of the room. Her hair was arranged like that of a ballerina's and she looked like she was ready to dance the part in her attire. A beautiful dancer enjoyed her meal beside me and all i could do was look at her and watch completely fallen under the spell of her enchantment.

"Oh do stop staring at me like that, you'll cause me to blush so very red. Is there something on my face Ciel?"

Her voice snapped me from my trance as i noticed the slight tinge of pink that adorned her cheeks as she looked at me smiling ever so slightly.
