the darkest royals

•Mortimer?•

''I am quite sure that you can change that my lady.

In the end you are your mother's daughter and she was known to have great power over men's hearts.''

As Sebatian say this I can feel my fast heartbeat slow a little down.

Of course he is right, I am my mother's daughter but that does not mean that I am a whore like her or that I have the same talents she had.

Yes, I can be count as beautiful but what is a pretty mask next to a beautiful soul?

I have to confess that I struggled all my life if my character is good enough and that only because I was minimized to my looks.

''He is right Carla.'' My brother say with a loud breath.

I surely share their believe a little but I am desperate to know why they think so.

''What makes you two so sure?'' I ask with a curious voice.

''Your eyes have a fire within them...'' Sebby starts.

''The way you move..'' Ciel goes on.

''So graceful and how graciuos you are.''

''How you provocatively rise your chin when you are debating.'' My brother ends and as he says this I notice that I indeed have raised my chin provocantively as they said all these things.

"Sounds like you'd love me" I answer smilingly.

''Who is he my love?'' Theodor's voice begins to rise from our left as we all turn around to look at him.

I stare at him for a little shocked that he is here and afraid that he might have heared anything from our conversation.

''Both of them are my servants, Sebastian you have met yesterday he is my butler and Mortimer is also something like that.'' I try to sound as calm as possible and I hope that my brother doesn't look confused as I call him Mortimer.

Ciel you are clever don't fuck this up

''It is a honour to meet you, your highness.'' Ciel say as he bows a little to greet the prince.

''Didn't you arrive with only one servant?'' He asks while coming closer to meand sitting down next to me.

''Yes I did but as I was told yesterday I will stay here a little longer soI wanted at least one more servant here with me.'' I explain myself while smiling peacefully at him.

''You will stay here for more than 'a little longer' and you can choose anyservant from the court to be yours, you hadn't to order someone to come here.'' He say while laying his hand on my naked knee.

I won't stay here for to long that is something I can promise this little prince and I see in both my butlers and brother's eyes that they are not pleased about how Theodor talks with me and they should be able to tell that I am neither.

''But I want my servants not anyone else's and they are aslo my advisors and friends so..''

''They are only servants Carla.''

I truely hate how he talks abou them and I will not step back and let him treat them like that.

''Unlike you I hadn't parents to care for me, I hadn't a perfect spoilt life. I have lost many people I loved and Sebastian and Mortimer are the only people that stayed by my side no matter what.

And they didn't stay because of money, because for a periode of time I had absolutely no money, we lived on the street and they stayed.

And they didn't stay for power because I had none. And they don't call me their queen and czarina because of the title I don't have yet nor the blood that runs through my veins, they call me like that because they chose me as their leader.'' My voice is filled with power and strengh and by now he should have realized that I am not a little princess he can controle.

Both Ciel and Sebby bow down as I say this and I stood up in the middle ofthe first sentence.

''I am sorry Carla.'' Theodor says after a long pause.

''You should be.'' Ciel say with a mad voice.

''C-Mortimer!'' I want to remind him about our good british manners but I was far to close to call him Ciel.

''Do you just wanted to call him another name?'' Theodor asks while staring into my greenish eyes.

''Just a nickname she had for me when we were younger.'' Ciel truely saves me as he answers.

''Who gave you the right to answer for her?'' Theodor say roughly as he gets up and comes closer to my brother, they both stare each other into their eyes. Sebatian and I exchange a look and I can read in his eyes that if I don't act now, it will get bloody and I don't need another scandal.

''Theodor?''I ask with a soft voice. I hope that he will now look at me and stops picking on my brother.

''Yes?'' He doens't sound as rough as he sounded talking to Ciel but still not as calm as I want him to.

''Didn't you offered to show me your libary?'' I ask with the softest voice possible.

He leaves some space between him and Ciel and turns around to look at me.

As his eyes meet mine I see a complete change in his appearance. He nods and both he and I leave my servants alone.

As we get back into the castle no one speaks, we just walk next to each other in complete silence and I have to admit that it driver me a bit crazy.

As we get around a corner where absolutely no one is he first pulls me closer to him and then pushes me against the wall.

''What are you doing???''
I asks with a very high pulse as he presses my hands against the wall next to my head.

''You drive me nuts princess.'' He say as his face comes closer to mine. I don't know what he is going to do and I don't know what to do.

I try to get his hand off of mine but no success.

He gets closer and kisses my ear before he say

''Is he your lover?''
