Set; Weston Arc
Push
Ciel was not happy. Sebastian was purposely failing him at this point. So the boy did the one thing he could think of- play dirty. Three years of living with that blasted demon taught him a few things. And he was going to play Sebastian's game now. Ciel snuck away from his class one day, then made his way up to the demon's personal house master quarters. Pushing the door open, he crept over to the bedroom door and smirked when he heard familiar humming.
"Aurora?" He carefully pushed open the door and found the blonde seated in the bed, reading a book. She glanced up in surprise. "Ciel? Ciel, what on earth are you doing in here? Did Sebastian send you?" She sat up and the boy moved to sit next to her, shaking his head. "No. I actually need your help with something." Aurora hummed, "Alright. I could use a break from rereading..." She looked at the book cover, "The dictionary... for the millionth time." Ciel grimaced, "That doesn't sound fun." Aurora sighed, "It isn't petit cheri. But Sebastian insisted I study my Anglais more." She smiled sweetly, "Now what can I do for you?" Ciel smirked, "I think you'll like this." Aurora smiled slyly,
"I'm all ears."
Late that night, Sebastian Michaelis returned to his quarters, for the first time in his years as a demon, he was exhausted. He couldn't wait to climb into his bed and curl up beside his mate. When he opened the door, he found his wife already asleep. Strange, he thought, walking over to the bedside and gently shaking her. "Angelica..." His wife didn't answer, and was deep in sleep. He frowned. She is already asleep? She always waits for me to join her before she falls asleep... He sighed and gently massaged her head for a brief moment before going to undress. He stripped down to only his white shirt and slacks before climbing into bed beside his beloved mate. When his arm pulled around his lover, she gave a small tired moan and he smiled leaning over to kiss her shoulder.
"Shush darling, it is just me, love. Go back to sleep." Aurora yawned and her silver blue hues fluttered open, "Your taking up too much space, mon cher... Move over..." Sebastian raised an eyebrow, "Excuse me?" Aurora yawned, "Just move over a little?" Sebastian, confused, obeyed her request and moved away from her a bit. Aurora yawned, "A little more, love..." Sebastian moved over a little bit more, now on the edge of the bed. Aurora rolled over and smiled lovingly, "Just a little more? Please?"
Sebastian was now wondering if he had done something to make her angry, and was about to ask her this as he moved that little bit more, only to yell as he fell out of bed and onto the floor. Aurora yawned, "That's perfect. Thank you, love." Sebastian stared at her in disbelief as he rubbed the back of his head, having hit his head on the way out of bed. "Of course..." He grumbled making himself at home on the floor before closing his eyes and attempting to sleep.
When he woke the next morning, Aurora was absent from the room and he heard her voice in his office. He groaned and dressed, his back hurting from his sleep on the floor. He found his wife chatting away with Ciel, the both of them playing a game of chess. Sebastian was about to scold the boy when he realized today was indeed a Saturday, meaning the boy was free of studies. Though Sebastian would be sure to go over everything with him regardless.
Aurora glanced over at him, "Oh. You are awake." Sebastian nodded and frowned at her wearing only his house master uniform without the robes. "Yes..." He grimaced as he felt his back pop and looked to his wife, "You did not wake me?" Aurora shrugged, "I figured you would need the extra sleep. You do complain constantly how exhausted you are." Sebastian was silent as she resumed her game with Ciel. He cleared his throat, "Anyways, my lord, we need to begin practicing for the tournament." Ciel scoffed, "Not likely. I can't even qualify if my grades aren't up to par."
Aurora sat back, "Yes, that reminds me..." She looked at her husband with a frown, "You are failing the petit cheri? Why on earth would you do such a thing?" Sebastian's brow twitched, "Because he needs to learn. He is failing because he has failed to study." Aurora sighed, "Or is that that you have just simply failed to teach him?" Sebastian looked shocked. He instantly began searching his memory for anything that could have been the cause of her attitude.
It wasn't her birthday... No, he would have remembered that, she wouldn't let him forget it... Was it her cycle? He inhaled trying to see if he could catch the scent. No, it wasn't that either. He stood in the doorway, staring at her and Ciel as they nonchalantly played a game of chess. What could he have done that vexed her so? He had been on time to bed the past few nights, he had been there when she woke, had made sure there was food ready for her when she arrived to his quarters... He couldn't think what he could have done to irritate his mate.
"Young master," he cleared his throat getting both of their attentions. "Would you give us a moment, please?" Ciel smiled and nodded, leaving the room with the demon's eye following him out. Once the boy was gone, Sebastian cracked. "Have I done something to vex you, my dear?" He asked slowly. Aurora looked surprised, "What? No, of course not. Why do you ask?" Sebastian walked up and turned her to face him, hands on the arm rests of his chair of which she was seated in. He leaned in, face inches from hers. He searched her silver blue eyes for any sign of deception, and he breathed in her scent, wondering if he had missed something. When he could not pin point the cause himself he sighed, "You aren't being very good to me, Angelica." He tilted her chin up, "Talk to me my angel, is there something that bothers you?" Aurora sighed, "I have no idea what you are talking about, Malphas."
Sebastian smirked, "You pushed me out of bed last night love, and you made me sleep on the floor." Aurora pouted, "Did I? I'm sorry mon cher. I must have been half asleep." She cupped his face and leaned in to kiss his cheek. "Are you alright?" Sebastian stared at her. Was she serious? Or was she playing with him? He sighed and stepped back, "You are forgiven." He pulled her to her feet and smiled slyly, "Now won't you come to bed?" His mate laughed as he pulled her to his chest, holding her body close to his as he kissed his way along her face and neck. "Sebastian! Sebastian, stop!" She pulled away and kissed his cheek. "You need to help Ciel." She kissed him. "I'll be here when you get back. Don't worry." Sebastian sighed and left her to her own devices, obeying her request to help the young boy.
When he returned later, he found his mate packing her bags and looking heartbroken. Sebastian was immediately worried. "Angelica? Angelica love, what is it?" His mate shoved past him and into his office. "I'm leaving you." Sebastian looked alarmed. "What?! Angelica! Angelica, wait! Why?! Darling- tell me what's wrong!" Aurora sniffled and wiped her eyes, "You sleep around. You don't love me." Sebastian looked confused, "Angelica, what on earth are you referring to? I have not-" Aurora clamped her hands over her ears. "No! I cannot bare it! You are more than willing to bed other women for such horrible means!" Sebastian searched his memory and he looked annoyed. "Are you- are you referring to that nun and the circus whore?" Aurora sniffled, "Who else?!" She demanded. Sebastian grabbed her arm and sat her down roughly into the seat behind his desk. "Angelica. Love, angel, darling- are you trying to get even with me for something?" His mate folded her arms across her chest and refused to answer. He sighed, "Very well. I suppose we will have to get our bond severed... And... since you lied to me, I shall devour your soul."
Aurora's eyes widened as he tilted her chin up, "If I cannot have you, then no one can..." Aurora suddenly pushed him away, panic in her eyes. "Wait!" She squealed. "Wait! I swear it wasn't my idea! It was just a prank! Just a prank!" Sebastian hummed thoughtfully, "A prank you say?" Aurora nodded, "Yes! Yes! I swear it!" She grabbed his face in her hands, "I love you- you and only you!" Sebastian sighed, "How can I be so sure you are not only saying this to spare your own life?" Aurora kissed him passionately, moaning into his mouth and holding him close. When she finally pulled away, gasping for air, she spoke. "Does that answer your question, mon amour?" Sebastian frowned, pinning her to the wall. "Then what on earth possessed you to pull such a prank, my mate? I cannot recall doing anything that would aggravate you."
Aurora pouted, "You're never around anymore. We've been mates for barely two months and you are already leaving me alone." She reached out to caress his face, "It hurts me when you leave me. You are gone far too often." She sighed, "It feels like... there is no room for me in your life anymore." Sebastian's gaze softened at her words. "I see." He murmured, kissing her. "I apologize for leaving you so alone, my dear. I will strive-"
Aurora cut him off, "But you say that every time! Every time I bring this up it is the same response!" She pushed him away and grabbed her bags, "Maybe I really should leave..." Sebastian grabbed her, "No." His voice had a demonic undertone that frightened his mate. He snarled, eyes glowing. "You will not leave my sight, do you understand?! This situation is far too dangerous!" He gripped her chin, "You are not leaving my side for anything. You will go where I tell you, when I tell you. Do you understand, my angel?"
Aurora didn't answer, shaking in fear. His gaze narrowed, "Must I repeat myself? You will do as I say, when I say. Have I made myself clear?" Aurora whimpered, "Malphas... Stop it... You- you're scaring me..." Sebastian released her, pulling away. "Forgive me, my angel. I just worry for your safety." Aurora nodded, "I know. But you cannot lock me up in some tower." She frowned, "I am not a damsel in distress. I am yours, as you are mine. We belong to each other. But I am not your property. I will do as I wish, when I wish. You can not control me."
Sebastian looked intrigued as her tone became serious. "Yes. Of course my love. You know I have a deep respect for you. I am full aware you can defend yourself. My only fear is something untoward happening to you." Aurora set her bags down and walked over, draping her arms around his neck and caressing his face. "I know. I understand it is in your nature to protect what is yours. Demons are possessive, you cannot help the urge." She kissed him, "I only ask that you try to let me defend myself sometimes. I have an Angelic rapier that is equivalent to a death scythe. I am perfectly able to defend myself." Sebastian kissed her, "I understand that, darling. I just worry about you." He cupped her face in his hand, "I love you." Aurora nodded, "I know you do."
She pulled him close and kissed him passionately, making him pick her up and set her on his desk. He pulled away and began undoing the buttons on her frock, "By the way, darling... I must ask." He smirked, "What made you decide to go to such measures to prank me?" Aurora chuckled, "Payback for all the years you pulled those silly pranks on me. And Ciel might have convinced me to participate." Sebastian chuckled, pulling away from her, "Truly? The young master was that upset I was failing him?" Aurora tilted his chin to her, "You cannot blame him, mon amour. He cannot get into that tea party without being on the team which requires proficient grades." Sebastian nodded, "I know that very well, mon cherie. But I am not going to give him a free pass. Sweetheart- he's missing out on so much time we could be using to teach him."
Aurora sighed, "I do suppose you make a good point... But he does need socialization." She smirked, "And the older boys do seem to be putting him in his place." Sebastian snickered, "Quite true, my lovely mate. Quite true." Aurora hummed, running her hands along his torso, giggling as he caught her waist in his hands, and gave a suggestive thrust of his hips into hers. He began dropping his trousers, pulling himself from the confines of his trousers before pushing his mate's dress up her thighs. "Do not misunderstand the situation, mon amour," Aurora murmured, as he pressed hickeys along her collarbone, making his way up her neck toward her jaw. "Hmm?" Her mate replied in a quiet hum, still occupied with his task. Aurora smirked, "I do plan on playing Ciel's little game. It is rather fun to torture you."
Sebastian paused, a small smirk growing on his face, "Ah? Is that so?" He leaned further into her. "Does my angel have a passion for torture? My- you are becoming a demoness, aren't you?" He chuckled darkly, eyes having that hellfire glow. "I find it quite alluring, Angelica. It makes me want to take you right here. Right now. On this desk." Aurora gasped, biting back a loud moan as he shoved himself inside of her, grinning at the look on her face.
"Oh? Was I too rough, angel? I apologize." He gave another sharp thrust and the blonde cried out, clamping a hand over her mouth. Sebastian shushed her instantly, "Now, now my dear- silence is virtue." Aurora hissed, "It's patience is virtue, you damned demo- ahh!" She gasped in pleasure as he began moving inside her. Sebastian smirked at the sight, "Darling, don't forget who is in charge when it comes to sex."
Aurora scoffed, "You aren't always on to- Ah god!" She gripped his forearms, gritting her teeth as he rammed himself to the hilt, his balls slapping against her. She looked up at him hopefully, "Malphas, Sebastian, mon amour, please- be more gentle! That hurt that time!" Sebastian didn't seem convinced, as he smirked at her. She grabbed his arm again, whimpering as he repeated the action, albeit a bit more gentler.
"Come now angel, you have asked for punishment." Aurora glared, "You call sex punishment?" Sebastian leaned in and kissed her passionately, drawing a moan from his partner before pulling away, leaving her wanting more. He smirked, "You forget you married a demon lord. Specifically of lust." He chuckled, "Oh angel... Have you any idea what real demon sex is like?" Aurora was blushing and at that last sentence felt a bolt of insecurity run through her.
Sebastian didn't seem to notice as he went on, "If anything I go easy on you. We haven't done half of what most demon couples do. If anything, you and I are just doing a lot of heavy petting." He frowned as his mate flinched away. "Darling?"
Aurora wasn't looking at him, and toying with the hem of her dress. He noticed the tears welling in her eyes and tilted her chin up. "Love? What is it?" Aurora sniffed. "You... I haven't- I'm sorry- am I not good?" Sebastian raised an eyebrow, "When did I say such a thing? You are perfect, Angelica." He went to kiss her but she stopped him, frowning. "You said real demon sex. Real. Are we not... by demon terms?" Sebastian sighed, silently cursing himself. "Angelica, darling- I did not mean it like that. Most demons are rather, violent when it comes to sex. Both parties come out of it brandishing new wounds. Even scars." He showed her a small mark on his wrist, "Even I have a couple from Lilli."
Aurora's eyes seemed to flare at the idea Lilli hurt her mate, but Sebastian chuckled and leaned in, kissing her. "I gave as good as I got, love. Do not worry. Your mate was not wounded." Aurora seemed to relax at this, but she did wrap her arms around his neck and look up at him hopefully. "Could we try it?" Sebastian frowned, "Darling, I wouldn't want to hurt you-" Aurora pulled him closer, "I can take it." She smirked, "I am your mate after all. We have been a little violent in bed before, have we not?" Sebastian hummed, "Very well. We can try if you so desire. But I warn you, Angelica, demons have no safe words." Aurora hummed, "We haven't needed one yet." She took his hand and guided him upstairs.
The demon smirked, following his mate and licking his lips.
When Ciel came later on to check on Aurora, having not seen her most of the day, and Sebastian having come to class with a slight limp, and disheveled enough to be reprimanded, the boy was worried what happened to the blonde.
Of course- he wouldn't admit that.
He entered the demon's office and started towards the spiral stairs that lead to the tower where his room resided. He heard low moans of pain and paused, but knocked. "Aurora? It's Ciel. Are you okay?" He heard rustling and a hiss of pain before the angel opened the door. Ciel stared at her, almost horrified. The bed room was a mess, covered in an array of black and white feathers, and the angel herself looked battered. She had on a night dress and a robe, but Ciel could clearly see the bandages on her arms and one wrapped around her neck.
"D-did Sebastian do that to you?!"
Aurora hummed and gave a nod. "He warned me." She yawned and limped back towards the bed, "I gave as good as I got." Ciel stared. "Why are you still here?! Why aren't you on your way back to the town house or the manor, or- anywhere that isn't near him?!" Aurora raised and eyebrow in question. Ciel continued, "He beat you for playing a prank?! Even I never thought he would do that! Especially not to you!"
Aurora smirked, realizing what Ciel thought. "Oh- this wasn't a punishment Ciel. Sebastian and I were just... experimenting." Ciel made a face, "Experimenting? For what?" Aurora broke into a fit of laughter, wincing as she did, and cutting off into a fit of coughs.
"Did I do more damage than I thought?"
Ciel jumped and turned to spot the demon behind him. Aurora hummed and nodded, "Maybe." Sebastian sighed, "I did warn you. So do not blame me for this." Ciel snapped before the blonde could reply, "She pulled a prank on you! You beat her for pulling a prank?! Why?!" Sebastian looked confused, "Beat her? Oh- my lord, I would never!" He grinned at his mate, "We just tried a few new things in bed. It was entirely her idea."
Aurora moaned, "Yes. One I am unsure if I regret or not." She glanced at her mate with a small pout, "I don't think I'm going to be flying for a few days, mon amour." Sebastian hummed and pecked her cheek, "Forgive me, angel. I will-" Ciel cut him off, recovering from the shock. "Wait. This was all consensual?!" He gestured to the battered female who nodded, "Yes. If it was not neither of us would be standing. He would have his heart ripped out of his chest." Sebastian licked his lips, almost imagining the sight. Aurora snapped her gaze to her mate. "You had best not enjoy that mental image Sebastian." Sebastian hummed, "Apologies, mon ange. Any image of you is lovely."
The blonde rolled her eyes. "Oh please." Sebastian smirked, "It is true, my lady." Aurora sighed and shook her head, "C'est la vie..."
She looked at Ciel, "Anyways, because someone was too rough- I'll be out of commission for a few days. I hope that won't be an issue?" Ciel looked disturbed as he replied, "Please, take all the time you need." Especially since I'm going to need to bleach my eyes... He thought to himself.
He looked to his butler, cringing as he noticed the lustful look the demon gave his other half, practically drooling at the reminder of the night prior's festivities.
"Sebastian."
The butler turned to face his master at his name. "Make sure I get on the team." He smirked, "Or I won't hesitate to start a rumor that you've smuggled Aurora in." Sebastian smirked, "You would jeopardize my position young master?"
Ciel smirked, "You mentioned you can change your appearance. Didn't you? Think of it as a warning." He turned to leave, leaving the couple sharing a look. Aurora hummed, "Well, he does have a point..."
Sebastian looked back at her, "I don't intend to leave you alone, I hope you understand that, mon ange." Aurora smiled, "I do not expect such a thing." She kissed his cheek, "Now please, love- go take care of our boy before he does something ridiculous."
