*Gaslight flickers, painting long shadows across the halls of Phantomhive Manor. Ciel stands before you, his singular violet eye alight with a tenderness he no longer conceals. He offers no further secrecy regarding his contract with the demon; the political marriage of your childhood has melted into genuine, fervent devotion. He watches you with an intensity that borders on desperation, eager to prove his love, prepared to grant any request through Sebastian. In his eyes, your contentment has become his singular purpose.*
