Ash's pov

I went Phantomhive's manor because the queen was invited but did not want to go herself so she sent me.

"Lord Phantomhive, it's good to see your well."I say as I make to him.

"You too, Mr. Landers. How is the queen? "He asks.

"She is well." I reply. I smell the same sweet smell I have smelt when I was a statue.

"Good evening my lord." A sweet voice greets.

"Good evening lady Hart. I take you like the dress Elizabeth picked for you." Ciel says as he looks at her dress. Stop looking at my mate like that.

"Well of course my lord. I am just curious as to how she knew purple is one of my favorite colors." She says giving a closed eyed smile.

"CIEL! CIEL!" A girl yells out. A girl with blonde pig tails comes over to us and glares at her. I raise an eyebrow and so does my mate.

"Ciel who is this?"The girl asks.

"This is Lady Lillian Hart. She is the one who I got you to get some clothes for." He says. Her face lights up and she hugs my mate. I want to peel her hands off her.

"Oh my goodness aren't you the cutest thing I have ever seen. I'm Lady Elizabeth Milford but please call me Lizzy. You're so pretty! "She exclaims. She smiles at her. She more than pretty, she is beautiful and sexy.

"Why thank you Lizzy. Also thank you for the clothes. And please call me Lilly."she says.

"Ohh, like the flower?"milford asks.

"Yes exactly like the flower. It is after one of my favourite flowers. "She says. I must remember that.

"I can see we are going to be great friends. Do you have any siblings? Are you married? Engaged? What's your favorite animals? Colors? Flowers? Is that your natural hair color? "She asks my mate in one breath.

"To answer your questions; yes I do have siblings,  I have four sister,three brothers and two step sisters. No I'm not married nor engaged. My favorite animals are all of them. My favorite colors are white, any shade of purple, green, blue, silver and orange. My favorite flowers are roses, lillies, tulips, and marigolds. Yes my hair is naturally black. "I say. She looks so happy for most of my mates answers. I'm glad she isn't married or engaged. That means she is all mine.

"You must find a man to spend the rest of your life with!" Milford exclaims.

"Elizabeth stop pestering people. "A woman commands.

"But mum!" Lizzy exclaims.

"I'm sorry for my daughter's behavior, Lady Hart." The woman says.

"It is quite alright Lady Milford. " my beautiful mate says . Milford and Lizzy walks away.  Lilly turns and faces ciel and me.

"If you don't mind my asking, who are you?"she asks me raising an eyebrow while looking at me.

"I am Ash Landers. I'm the queens personal butler. It is very nice meeting you, my lady." I say and kiss her hand. She blushes slightly.

"The same goes to you my lord. You look familiar. You wouldn't happen to have a statue of yourself as an angel would you? "She asks and I smile. I lean towards her.

"I was the statute my dear and you set me free."i whisper in her ears and gently bite her earlobe. I feel her shudder in desire slightly  and I  kiss below her ear. I know she is holding in a moan. Her skin is really soft.

"Well I'm glad to be of help my lord. I'm guessing this is my reward? "She asks me quietly for only me to hear.

"Only part of the reward, my dear. The rest of the reward is up to you. Whether you would be interested in someone like me or not."I whisper to her.

"It seems like I can trust you mister Landers. But would someone such as your self be interested in someone like me? "She asks and smiles. Of course I would.

"May I have this dance my lady?"I asks and she said yes. We danced up until it was time for everyone to leave. We said goodnight to each other and I kissed her cheek lovingly. She blushes and I bow slightly. I turn to see the demon with an angry look on his face. I smile to myself but then frown that demon better not touch my mate. If does touch her the way I'm supposed to, he would get his wings cut off. It a serious crime in heaven and in hell to sleep with someone's mate that is not your own. The kings take that very seriously. I fly back to the queens castle and she gets to write a letter to my mate, saying that she will pay for my mate's manor also moving it to a different location. I finished the letter and head off to watch my mate sleep. She is wearing a white spaghetti nightgown. Her hair is sprawled all over her pillows. Her lips are parted slightly. God she is so perfect. She is so pure. I see that demon come into her room and watches her. He reaches out to touch her and she moves away from him.

"Don't touch me Sebastian! "I hear her say. His face shows anger and he slaps her. He realizes what he has done and tries to apologize.

"Get out Sebastian! "She yells out holding her cheek and he leaves. She cries silently.

"This is exactly why I don't want him touching me. Now I wouldn't mind if Ash touched me. I feel safe in his slightly muscular arms. His sent is incredible. He smells of strawberries and lavender. I can't wait to see him again. "She says to her self and walks over to the window. She opens it, she looks up and locks eyes with me. She smiles slightly. I smile back.
