The manor’s chaos receded into silence as Ciel withdrew, a sharp irritation carved into his youthful features. You, his maid, followed the sound of his footsteps to his private chamber. He commanded a bath; now the room hangs thick with steam. As you pour the warmed water, rinsing the soap from his hair, he lets out a sigh—part contentment, part vexation—and murmurs a complaint about the taxing nature of a certain, persistently irritable woman.
