The Lady Shadowhive and her demon butler Lucius Dracovich

Wedding Night

Ciel's POV
She looked stunning, no breathtaking in her gown. Her hair was perfect and i couldn't help but stare at her with a smile upon my face. This was my wife... i would spend the remaining days of my life waking up with her next to me.. i would forever spend my days talking to her, going into town.. and maybe even fulfilling missions for the queen together.. I had made sure with exact detail that the atmosphere resembled the night we first kissed. The meal prepared was her favorite, an italian dish of pasta and chicken with a white cream sauce and bits of mushroom. Instead of tea we were drinking wine, i had drunk it a few times before but i rarely partook in it. Jade smiled as she sat across from me.

"Ciel everything seems so perfect, i can't help but feel a little shy at such an elaborate display."

"Nothing is too much for you my dear.."

I smiled and took her hand in mine across the table. My finest china was set out and we were waiting for Sebastian to arrive with our meal. There was a small vase with some red roses and the crystal goblets sparkled in the moonlight. I took the wine bottle from the chilling bucket and stood from my seat. I walked over to her and held the bottle out to her.

"Have you ever had this brand before?"

She looked at the bottle curiously and then shook her head.

"No but i have heard of it.. its supposed to be a very rare italian wine."

I smiled and nodded my head as i opened the bottle and poured some into her glass..It was a deep red and she watched it slowly fill the clear goblet in her hand. I sat back in my seat and poured my own glass. She tasted the wine and smiled looking at me.

"Its delicious..very strong and pungent.. but also sweet and fruity."

I nodded once again and then clinked my glass with hers. The night was going perfectly, and soon the meal arrived. It didn't matter that there was no conversation to fill the silence. All that mattered was that we were here together.. and she was all mine. No upsetting gifts to distract her.. no visitors to steal her away. Tonight it was just us and the light of the moon. I wonder if she was nervous.. I knew i was somewhat nervous but my suspicions were proven when she looked up at me shyly from her plate and then back down to poke the food on her plate with her fork. I smiled kindly and then took up her hand in mine across the table and said softly.

"Jade.. are you all right.."

"Of course i am, why would you ask?"

"Your poking the food on your plate and you've barely spoken a word. Sebastian, move my chair closer to Jades."

"Yes my lord.."

I stood from my seat and Sebastian skillfully moved the plate settings closer to jades as well as the chair and i sat back down and took her hand in mine and said in a quiet tone.

"Jade... i must ask you.. are you feeling nervous?"

Her eyes widened and a slight blush tinged her cheeks as she looked away. I rarely saw this side of her, the vulnerable and feeble side of jade. I knew why she was nervous.. she was probably thinking about what would later come tonight.. but i didn't want her to be nervous or anxious about it. That would make her dread spending her nights with me. I smiled kindly and kissed her hand gently.

"Don't worry.. i am as well.. its a big step.. but as long as i have you."

She looked at me as I spoke and her expression softened while she waited for me to finish my sentence.

"As long as i have you, i know it'll be all right."

She bit her lip and looked down at my hand. A small smile formed on her lips and she looked back up at me and nodded. We continued eating and soon the meal was over.

"That was an incredible meal Ciel. Tell me what else do you have planned for us tonight?"

She giggled and smiled at me as I stood up and bowed. I extended a hand to her with a smile saying.

"Might i have a dance?"

"There's no music playing though."

She giggled and took my hand standing from her chair and allowed me to lead her to the empty space of the balcony. I smiled more at her and then spun her in a small circle before placing my hand on the small of her back and holding her hand in mine.

"There will be soon."

She rested her hand on my shoulder and then her eyes sparkled in the moonlight. Those deep amethyst eyes shining so bright under the moonlight, i could have stared at them for hours and feel completely at peace. I smiled and began moving us in the steps of the waltz as the sound of violin filled the air. We spun in a small circle together our steps staying in perfect rhythm with each other's and our eyes looking into the others. I swear our hearts were beating in sync as we continued dancing. I didn't even notice Lucius leave the balcony as we continued dancing for hours.

Lucius's POV
I couldn't take it anymore.. the sickening whispers.. the loving gaze.. it was making my insides burn and rot as I walked around the inside of the Phantomhive Manor. I went to the room i was given and sat in one of the chairs. tonight.. it was happening tonight..There was nothing to stop it.. nothing i could do discreetly to prevent it from happening. I was sure that Ciel boy had ordered Sebastian to prevent any disturbances during this night. I racked my brain over and over trying to think of a way to stop it. She was MY contract.. MY master... she... she was supposed to be MY jade.. and this stupid worthless boy was taking her away from me. I sighed as the violin music ended and i heard the sound of giggles emitted from above. I closed my eyes and focused on my mistress. Her body was leaning against Ciel's and she was somewhat dazed, i was sure it was from the wine. She was drinking it rather quickly and she was thankful Ciel didn't notice. I was sure she was trying to put herself in a daze so she would lower her guard, and yet I hoped that she would deny him.. that she would say she was too nervous or she wasn't ready. I sat in the silence of my room and did my best to drown out the noise of my thoughts as i forced myself to sleep.

Ciel's POV
I laughed a little more as Jade continued pointing out the pictures amongst the stars.

"I doubt they call that constellation the big pot and little pot."

"Well what do you suppose they call them then mister smarty pants."

She giggled again and i chuckled holding her, she must have drunk a little too much wine but at least she was relaxed and maybe the night air would sober her slightly. I pointed to each one and told her that they were called the Big Dipper and the Little Dipper. She smirked and giggled covering her mouth in her hand and then turned smiling at me.

"Ciel.. tonight was amazing.. the food was phenomenal as always, the music and dancing was fantastic.. and the wine was delicious.. but the night is getting darker so should we retire for the night?"

This was the moment... this was it.. was she giving me the sign she was ready... I swallowed hard and nodded slightly. I cupped her cheek in my hand and then leaned in kissing her deeply. Her body tensed slightly in my grasp and i wondered if she didn't mean it, but soon she relaxed again and her hands rested on my arms. We stood on the balcony for what felt like an eternity our lips locked together and our breaths filling the silence around us. A cough broke the silence and we leaned away from each other and looked at Sebastian.

"My lord.. My lady.. may i suggest you continue this inside.. The night air is getting colder."

She was holding on to me tightly and she was taking in quiet breaths as was I. We nodded and i found myself smiling at her and she smiled back as we went inside of the manor. She giggled with her arm linked through mine as we walked up the stairs and made our way down the hall. We exchanged small kisses on our small journey to our room. The entire time she was smiling and giggling as i guided her through the halls.
