After the mansion burnt down, Ciel went away for quite some time...he later returned with a "devilish" butler. Tanaka, took over as the House of Phantomhive Steward. However, Tanaka receives word that his granddaughter, Paula, is without work. Turning to the young earl, who granted permission, Tanaka sends for his granddaughter to come and work as a scullery girl of sorts at the manor. She is a fleeting young woman, beautiful and fair.......This spells trouble for both the butler and earl, as Ciel competes for Sebastian's attention, threatening to take away the only woman that has ever made him feel "human".
