Ciel Phantomhive is a simple bastard's child. His mother, Anastasia Ryan; a noble, slept with a farmhand; Joseph Riche and got pregnant by him. Ashamed of the disgrace she'd caused her family name, she quickly thought of a way to hide this little 'secret'.
Anastasia had come up with the only possible choices she had:
1) Sell the child at a young age and wash her hands of him.
2) Hide him away so no one can ever know he was born.
Or
3) Kill the poor thing and forget anything had ever happened.
Not wanting to completely abandon her son, or become a murderer, she chose option two.
She allowed the boy to grow up in the castle, but he was not allowed to go outside, to have any friends, or to leave his room unless instructed to do so.
Then, at the age of twelve, he was sent to live in a tiny cottage behind Anastasia's mansion, never allowed to go outside, not even to just sit on the back porch.
One day, a nice fellow, Sebastian Michaelis; prince of Vaele Mont, stumbles upon the cottage and decides to rest there for a bit.
His guards surround the perimeter and make sure no one gets in or out. Prince Sebastian finds Ciel hiding in the bathtub, cowering away from him.
What happens when Prince Sebastian takes mercy upon the poor child and takes him with him back to Vaele Mont?
What happens when Anastasia discovers her only son is missing, but can't ask around because no one knew he even existed let alone went missing?
What happens when you throw love into the mix?
Read on to find out.
