The Lady Shadowhive and her demon butler Lucius Dracovich

How To Be A Lady

Ciel's POV

I watched as Sebastian finished tying my tie loosely as i thought about what my first lesson in being a lady would be....Creak... I turned my head and saw Jade enter my room with Lucius carrying a dark blue gown over his arm smiling. BUT WHAT WAS JADE DOING IN MY ROOM!!! I stood up calmly despite my confusion and looked at her while saying as calmly as i could.

"My lady why the sudden visit into my room?"

"I told you Ciel i would be teaching you how to be a lady did I not? The first step is turning you into a lady, now Lucius is going to fit you in this dress that i brought with me and then i will do your hair. I will be in the bathroom until you are finished, i need to arrange the make up for the next step."

She left laughing softly into my bathroom as Lucius stepped closer to me, but Sebastian cut him off and took the dress from him smirking.

"I believe i should be the one to dress my young lord, do you have the corset with you?"

Lucius smiled and handed him a corset before turning to go into the bathroom with Jade leaving me with my butler holding a corset and dress.... and so it begins... How embarrassing... Sebastian took my clothes back off and pulled the strange corset device onto my body, but it was loose... how was it that this thin-- AHH!!! Sebastian pulled the strings tight and i could feel the air being pushed out of my body. I braced my hands on the wall in front of me as he kept pulling the strings...

"Stop it your going to kill me!!"

"Nonsense my lord, if a corset was to kill you then the lady Jade would not be standing.."

I gritted my teeth together as he tied the strings barely leaving me room to breathe inside this torture device. How on earth did Jade walk around wearing this damned thing?! I stood up and noticed that i had gotten even thinner than i already was, but why on earth was this necessary? I sighed irritated as Sebastian pulled the dress over my head and pulled my arms through the sleeves, if Jade had been wearing it she would have looked beautiful but she was not the one wearing it.... I was.... I looked odd in this dress and i couldn't hide the blush that adorned my cheeks as i stared at myself in the mirror.

"I feel so ashamed..."

"All for the sake of the case isn't it my lord?"

Sebastian had said to me reassuringly and i nodded my head and walked to the bathroom opening the door to see Lucius brushing out Jade's long hair. She looked beautiful in her dark green dress and it complimented the color of her skin as well as highlighting the color of her hair strands that differed from the main color of her hair. She looked over at me and smiled while clapping her hands together.

"Oh Ciel you look so pretty in that dress, i'm glad you fit it well, now the next step is to fix your hair.. please have a seat."

She stood up so gracefully and grabbed the side of her dress as she did so, i took a mental note of this and sat down in the seat where she was and looked at her reflection in the mirror as she stood behind me.

"Now lesson number one is being able to smile no matter what is happening around you, if you maintain a frown you'll frighten the men away and get nothing accomplished."

"I see, so when you smiled at me the first time we met, it was a fake?"

"I was unsure of what to think but to maintain my manners i smiled and behaved politely, but after a few moments the smile became genuine. Another thing you must not do is question their actions. It will make them irritated and want to walk away, don't turn your head my love keep facing forward."
