You nodded "Y-Your right I am the new head of the house"

"Well of course we have to let the Queen know of your attendance now" Ciel replied.

Before you could reply, you heard people walking down the hall.

"Hello Earl!" a voice called in a child-like manner.

You and Ciel turned your heads to see a Chinese man and woman, and a woman draped in red.

"Ooh! Is this the girl you were looking for?" the Chinese man asked.

"Yes" Ciel replied in a monotone voice.

The woman draped in red looked at you and you immediately recognized her.

"Madam Red?" you asked.

Madam Red looked at you with a smile plastered on her face "Lady ______, good to see you're doing well.I'm sorry for your loss" she replied.

You looked down and sighed "Y-yeah I guess this means I'm the new head of the house"

Madam Red nodded "You immediately need to attend towards the Queen"

You looked up and saw someone else familiar at least business wise.

"Lau-sama" you bowed your head to the Chinese man he was in charge of the Chinese trading branch.

"Ah! why hello there little nightingale" he smirked.

You let a small gasp escape your lips, your parents called you that all the time because when you sang you were labeled by many as a nightingale.

"Your parents are long gone now? Don't worry, their probably in a better place" Lau said.

"Thank you..." you replied.

"Now. What were we talking about again?"

(Timeskip because I said so)

You were at the Queen's palace, you were dresses in such a fancy attire, when you approached people started to whisper.

"Why is she getting such an acknowledgment?"

"Just a mere child"

"I know she comes from a very noble family but a child?"

A crown of silver was bestowed upon your head, it felt cold but welcoming.

You looked up at the Queen she smiled "Welcome back Lady *_______*"

You nodded and turned to the audience in the back you saw Ciel and the others looking at you.

(Timeskip again because I am tired)

Back at the manor you placed your little tiara at the bed stand and sighed and took off all your fancy attire.

Ciel came inside our room (you share one now) and looked at you.

"Dinner will be ready soon, in the meantime would you like to walk around the manor with me? Since you'll be staying, it'll be for the best you knew where you are walking to" he explained.

You nodded "I'd like that very much".

You explored so many rooms, but you were excited for only one room which was ...
