Cadenza's pov:
I was getting bored in the carriage but as if right on cue I saw a small manor. It became bigger as I went nearer.

When I reached the manor, the door opened and Levi stretched out his hand to help me get down from the carriage. He closed the door and accompany me to the huge manor doors. Bad memories came over me like a tidal wave. I tried not to cry since brother said I must not show my weakness in the public.

As I came nearer, I saw a pale-skin man with red eyes in a butler uniform. He looked at me in confusion and said:

"Countess Cadenza? Why are you here? This ball is only for those who are close to the earl."

"Well, pardon me but can't I have a little fun?" I said, wiggling my eyebrows,"besides, the Queen invited me so why not?"

"Very well. This way, milady." He opened the huge ass doors and motioned me to follow him.

Soon, I reached the ball room and it was decorated with pink curtains, pink bows and pink glitters. I sweatdropped but proceeded anyways. I ordered Levi to get a drink.

I looked around and a certain blue-haired boy caught my eye. We made eye-contact and I gasp.

Ciel's pov) :
I was having a ball to celebrate my fiance's return from a dangerous trip. If I didn't agreed on letting her on her own in the first place, then she wouldn't be in danger. *sigh*

Anyways, Sebastian came into the ballroom with a woman and a man on her side. She looked so familiar yet couldn't put my finger on it. She had almost the same features as my dead... Father. I suddenly had a memory attack and I saw that woman again... She was reaching out to me as if she wanted to carry me or so.. I need to talk to her.

I was looking at her but her gaze fell on me. We made eye-contact and she gasp. She averted her gaze away. She definitely knew something that I don't.

I was about to go towards her but lizzy spin me around and said that she wanted to dance with me. We danced the night away, resulting in me forgetting about the strange woman...

Cadenza's pov:
I averted my gaze away from him. I couldn't bare to look at him in the eye. He remind me so much of his father.

~Time skip to the next morning~

*Still Ciel's pov btw*

"Sebastian!" I called for my butler.

No response.

"SEBASTIAN!" I shouted once more even louder this time.

Again, no response. I could feel my anger rising. I was about to stand up to find him when there was a loud knock on my door. "Come in." The door was being opened by no other than Sebastian. He was covered in bruises and cuts.

"Where have you been?!? I called for you two times already!" I said, well more like shouted really.

"I apologise, young master. I was fighting off that Sutcliff. He wouldn't leave me alone." he explained. I sigh.

"Anyways, yesterday, I saw a lady, with a man. She was with you when you came into the ballroom. Who was she?" I asked him.

Sebastian smirked.

"That woman and her butler? She is the one and only, Countess Cadenza!" He said, from the way he said it was like he was admiring her. Tch.

"Who?" I said, still puzzled on this' Countess Cadenza'

"You... Don't know her?" Sebastian asked. "Well, she is the most popular singer! Rumors says that she was depressed on the passing of her late brother. However, she didnt tell us her last name so I don't know her family." he added.

Interesting. I want to meet her.

I wrote a letter to the Queen to help me invite the Countess since obviously I didn't know where she lives.
