Hello lovelies~

Hope you all like this chapter, I certainly am exited to see everyone's reactions!

oh and one more thing, get ready for a Plot Twist ;)

Emma Smiled completely out of it, her demon side taking over her after all her demon hadn't been fed for the entirety of her life so she was bound to want to have some food. By food it was clearly Ciel as he was the only human in the vicinity, she started to walk closer her eyes glowing a bright red. "I'm Hungry...and I want him..." she looked in the direction of the 13 year old boy as he stood in the window looking at her with horror and yet...amusement, it was like he was daring her to come up and try to get to him. She sensed this mockery and growled. James now fearing for the boy ran past her and went with Sebastian to protect the Ciel.

Cara looked over to Arthur, "I'll go find some lambs for her, you try to keep her tame while you can!" With a nod from Arthur Cara ran past in a blur along with Caleb, Arthur now had a fir grip on Emma patting her head trying to knock some sense into her but she wasn't having any of it. She was hungry and if she wasn't fed soon she would forcibly move anyone in her way. The only thing standing in her way was her father, she almost scoffed he came back into her life after she was threatened. What kind of excuse was that? her father left her, and her mother for dead, and decided he was in the wrong the day her mother dies. She felt her blood boil as she shoved him back with newfound anger, Arthur sensing this raised an eyebrow at her. "Emma dear, you're not yourself, you need to calm down and try to clear your mind.

Emma scoffed at this, really she was out of her mind? "I'm out of My Mind?! you're the one who is trying to control me after leaving me and my mother for Years!" she was no longer focused on Ciel for food, no instead she wanted to get at Arthur and show him what she really thought. She lunged at him screaming as she did, this surprised him and he fell back as she was on top. All that Arthur could think was for the others to hurry up before he had his face beaten to a pulp. She raised her fist ready to hit when the smell of something had hit her nose, turning around she saw Cara and Caleb with sheep under their arms.

In an instant she was up and making her way over, after seeing Emma easily pin Arthur they let go of the animals as she went over. James watched from the window as Sebastian stood in front of Ciel, James was watching the way she walked slightly concerned, he hadn't fed in quite a while and now the fact that there was food available was making him on edge. Elliot looked over to Emma with a slight smirk "this is going to be hot" before he could get another word in Daina slapped him, huffing. "I deserve that.." Elliot sunk down, yet still had his eyes on Emma.

Emma moved over and instantly sunk her fangs into the sheep, draining them instantly. She drank and drained every sheep that was given to her. after feeding from them she was finally able to snap out of it. She saw the blood on her hands and tasted the metallic blood on her tongue and gagged, "What the fuck! That's disgusting!"

James quickly joined her and  lifted her chin so that she could see his eyes as he looked into hers. "I'm proud of you, you did so well Blue. I'll be back i need to make myself half decent..." Standing back up James kissed her head and then left her, Emma just sat there with a flushed face going over what had just had happened. standing up she looked around " Thank you for that...I didn't mean to be so out of it and....Im sorry too dad, I didn't mean that..." Arthur just shook his head smiling as if to dismiss the thought before walking away back into the house. Cara, Caleb and Elliot cleaned up the mess whilst Emma went back inside and headed straight for the bathroom she began to run the bath pouring some of the new experimental bubble bath solution.

once the water was hot she got undressed climbing inside, she tied her hair up and slowly relaxed. whilst she relaxed she thought to herself about how she missed the simple things like this in her life. After a short while there was a knock at the door and the smell of vanilla cigarettes, Emma knew exactly who it was and she smiled. "Can I come in..?" James asked. With a shake of her head and a small movement to cover herself in soap suds she replied "Of course, i'm covered now".

James Walked inside back to his usual form and walked over kneeling down by the tub, he played with a loose strand of hair, "maybe 'Blue' should be changed to red?" Emma shook her head, she liked the name blue...it was his name for her and she liked it. "No, i like Blue too much, besides this is temporary..." James nodded not seeming to smile, he looked down at her as if he was taking her in for one last time. "So you have imprinted back then?"

Emma gave a nod, "Yeah its what the others are saying, I mean I Feel  like I have so I can't really deny it" James gave a nod resting his arms on the side of the tub, he was shaking and Emma could see that, "good...." Emma softly placed a hand on his arm looking at him softly, "whats wrong, and don't lie to me James..." James tensed but then relaxed slightly, he avoided eye contact his shaking getting worse as he spoke, " I...I Let him get to you....I failed to do the one thing i promised i'd do right....this-this is my fault...you're not as safe as I thought..."

Emma pulled herself up and hugged him, she didn't care that she was naked and hugging him, she just wanted him to feel better. She hugged him tighter "One I'm sorry for you getting wet because of me, and two  none of this is your fault James....it's my fault once again, i let him into your head...I did this, if i had just ignored his threat and told someone then it wouldn't have been a problem...so please stop blaming yourself" James couldn't tell if she was crying or it it was just water dripping from her head.

James weakly hugged back, "I let my guard down Emma, that is how he got to you in the first place,Hell if i just stayed away and not made a deal with a deal with that fucking asshole" James clenched his fist, and Emma hugged back tighter shaking her head, "James stop blaming yourself..."

James pulled away from her looking down, "he said it himself, hes doing this to get at me...he doesn't even want you any longer.." James stood up and looked away from her, "I'm going to get him away from here...He'll leave you alone and your family alone, I'm sorry you were ever cursed with knowing me...Miss Walker" He turned walking away.

Emma sat up fully in the bath now crying, she held out a hand pleading with him, "please don't go! Please! You can't leave me...Please don't leave me" This cause James to only shake harder looking down stood in place, "Y-you need to be safe....As much as I wanted to believe that I was making things better....I was actually making it worse..." He shook in place.

Emma took this as her opportunity and got out of the bath not caring that she was completely naked and ran over hugging him from behind, "please do't go...don't leave me that's exactly what he wants...were better together, stronger together...If you leave me he will win James please, don't leave me I just got you back...." Emma cried harder hugging him tightly.

James turns around hugging her tightly, nodding as he pet her head. "okay okay I will stay...Just please...Please don't cry..." Emma gave a small nod leaning into him and hugged tighter, "don't ever leave me....you're not allowed to...don't ever leave me, please.....please..." James only nodded and took in her scent, "Okay i promise-"

Caleb walked past huffing and rolled his eyes, "oh please...you two really need to fuck already..."James let out a dry laugh glaring at Caleb, "shut the fuck up Cal...." Emma also laughed holding on tighter, "you know I think that's just what we needed right now...You know..a good laugh not to uhm....you know" James gave a small nod and slowly let go, he then quickly turned away and cleared his throat...such the gentleman...James stood and kept his eyes averted, "you finish washing up and I will wait for you outside, I wish to show you something after" Emma gave a small nod at his comment and James walked out.

Once Emma was finished with her bath she got dressed in something comfortable and walked out of the bedroom, black wasn't her usual color but after everything that had happened, she felt like a little change wouldn't be that drastic. James laid his eyes over her with a devilish smirk, he was practically eating her up but then again when didn't he gawk at the woman. "you look hot Miss Walker" Emma only rolled her eyes looking at him, looking James over she smiled just as devilishly, "you don't look that bad yourself James"

James chuckled and walked over slowly and laced his hands into her hair tilting her head back, he lent down and tilted his own head and places a soft and passionate kiss on her lips, making sure to make it linger on her soft and plump lips. Emma kissed back with just as much integrity smiling all giddy, slowly pulling away from the kiss she looked up at him, "a girl could really get used to that" James laughed slightly and gave a soft nod. "I will do it as many times as you wish.."

Emma looked up at him and gave a curious look, "so where are we going then?" James gave a saddened look holding her hands, "we're going to my mind palace.." as soon as Emma gave a small nod in acceptance they teleported to his mind palace, however instead of sitting on a swing above the beautiful blue water, they were standing on a dried up land, the trees replaced with dead ones and any life drained from the place...

Emma looked around with a gasp and then back to James, "you, got rid of the water..?" James only stared out at the ground letting out a deep breath before speaking, "When I saw you drown in that water, I couldn't bare to look out at the water, knowing that by having the water he could use it to hurt you again, so I got rid of it...." Emma moved forward to hug him.

Emma let out a sad look holding him tighter, "it's okay James, I'm here now and it's gonna take a hell of a lot more for him to hurt me now" James hugged back just as tighter with a soft smile looking down at her, the scared girl he once knew had changed, and that only made him fall for her more... James decided to change the scenery, the barren land putting a dull mood over them.

In an instant James and Emma were standing on a walnut coloured boardwalk, with water around them again and life had returned to the land. Little Robins flying past, and trees in the distance blooming and swaying in the summer breeze. Underneath them were fish swimming and moving around, playing with each other in the water. The fish varied in colour from deep sapphires to golden yellows as well as vibrant oranges. The water itself was a deep blue green and sparkled against the sun causing the surface to look like sparkling glitter. To the side you could hear the waves crashing against the sand, creating a fluffy and foamy trail as the water retreated. The sand was a creamy ivory and looked softer than a teddy bear's fur, there was no imperfections within the sand, no debris in sight. However, if you looked closer, you could see seashells on the sand with an assortment of colours from shimmering bronzes to gleaming emeralds mixing with teals. 

James looked back at Emma with a sheepish smile, "sorry, but at least there is a boardwalk this time...I can't relax without the sound of water so I needed this, but this time I made sure the water wasn't that deep maybe a few feet down? Kind of like a pool, maybe one day I could help you to swim one day?" Emma only sighed with a smile shaking her head taking in the beauty of the scene around her, "no it's okay, I can at least stand in the water this time so it's not all that bad I guess"

James sat down on a nearby bench that she hadn't even noticed, pulling her into his lap as he rested his head on her shoulder taking in her scent, "Finally I have you back..." Emma only smiled brighter leaning into his hold and held his hand that was wrapped around her, "yeah I am back, and I don't plan on leaving anytime soon" James smiled wide at her comment nuzzling his head closer to her, "thank god..."

Emma couldn't help but let out a small giggle at his comment, "genuinely never thought I would ever hear you say that" James gave a lazy shrug and then looked at her, "usually I wouldn't but you're the only exception" with that he leant down pressing a soft kiss to her lips before pulling back, to which she smiled gratefully at him for. "You know, I'm glad I have you James"

James, pushed a stray hair from her face away and behind her ear gently, "you will always have me Emma, you can't get rid of me that easy..." Emma rest her legs over his curling up in his hold relaxing from just his presence. James pet her head and gave a satisfactory smile.

After being there a while in the position they were in Emma found James asleep on her, to which she smiled shaking her head and hissed the top of his, she thought about how tired he must have been after the events of that day, and she decided to let him sleep as much as he needed, James moved closer nuzzling into her as he slept. Unable to help herself Emma fell asleep with him, curling into his hold.

Hours pass and James finally wakes with a yawn, when he looks down he finds a sleeping Emma in his arms. This causes him to smile and kiss her head, she gives a sleepy and lazy smile as her eyes flutter open and a tiny yawn to come out, it reminded James of a tiny kitten. Emma rubbed her eyes and then looked up to James, who was smiling down at her when he spoke his voice was low and raspy, "heya Blue..." Emma looked up and smiled sleepily, "Hi James"

James shifted and pulled her closer relaxing, "did you sleep well?" giving a yawn Emma replied happily, "yes I did, it was really good mainly because you were here" James chuckled and kissed the top of her head, "and I wouldn't dare leave." Emma gave a satisfied hum and then nodded slightly, "did you sleep well?" James nodded responding, "Yeah...it was great holding you" Emma agreed with a nod, "I wish we could do it more often" James said with a yawn and a stretch.

Emma flushed slightly and looked up at James, "well...why don't you?" James glanced down in thought raising his eyebrow, "you mean it?" She gave a small nod in response "yeah I don't see why not, I mean we both sleep better that way and besides it's not like you are going to kill me in my sleep is it?" Emma laughed slightly looking up at him. James chuckled as well, "Well...if at any point you want me to go back to my room you just say okay?"

Emma gave a small nod with a shy smile, "I doubt I will tell you to go but okay" James smirked and looked down at her, "Is that a challenge princess?" to which Emma only smirked herself, "You wish" James laughed and kissed her head, "are you ready to go back?" Emma laughed nodding, "yeah we've been gone this long people will think we were up to something" James shook his head smiling, in an instant they were back in the bedroom and on the bed.

James got up and off, and Emma smirked crossing her arms "always the bed huh? James only laughed in response, "we weren't standing...if I teleported back to the hall we would have been on our asses Blue" Emma stood up giggling, "suuuure sure, whatever you say" the two then both left the room hand in hand.

Months had passes, the group living happily in the mansion, there was no news from Satan either he had gone silent, but then again the group weren't complaining though, they settled in the teasing never stopped as well as the close calls between James and Emma, but they were happy. James was currently sat on the roof with Emma watching the sunset over the hills in the distance.

Sebastian poked his head out of a window calling them saying that dinner would be ready soon and to come down sooner rather than later, with understanding the two climbed down and went inside. After seeing their clothes they decided that it was probably best if they got changed and had a wash before the meal. Emma went to her room and then into the bathroom attached to the side washing herself in the lavender soap May-Rin had provided, once fully washed she smiled wrapping a towel around herself and dried off once again using products the maid she now called her friend left her. Walking into the bedroom she saw a dress on the bed with a little note attached it was from James saying for her to wear it for dinner.

She placed the black lace dress on, it came up to her knees and had an open lace backing to it, and it was absolutely beautiful. James walked in after knocking and gave a wide smile admiring her, to him she looked absolutely stunning. James walked over slowly with a smile, "hey can you do me a favour and lift your hair up for me?" confused Emma did as told lifting her freshly washed and soft brunette hair up. James walked around and behind her placing something around her, a necklace.

Looking down Emma's eyes went wide as she looked down at it, the necklace had real diamonds and sapphires, there was a single strip of the glistening blue sapphires around the top and then underneath the diamonds went down slightly getting bigger near the centre, and the centrepiece was a collection of diamonds in the shape of a teardrop. Emma gasped before looking up at him with a smirk, "James how much did this cost- Wait where did you steal this from?" she giggled at him.

James shook his head looking back up at her hugging her from behind, "I've had this since I woke up as a demon, I was covered in all sorts of things like this, I don't know why but I mostly sold all of it except the necklace and this ring" He held up his hand showing a ring with a red gem in the centre. Scoffing Emma looked at him mocking him, "maybe you were a lord, either that or a highway man"

James shook his head laughing, "A lord, yeah right my ass....the lord of assholes maybe" he took her hand as they both laughed, walking to the dining hall. As soon they walked into the dining room, Daina gasped squealing looking Emma over, "oh my god you look amazing!!" Cara agreed clapping, "I agree gorgeous, Emma is absolutely killing it tonight.  Caleb smiled sweetly sticking his thumb up, Ciel however looked at the necklace and frowned slightly, that necklace was buried with his father, and now Emma was wearing it.

Emma blushed at all the comments she was receiving, Ciel spoke calmly as usual, "Lady Walker, may I ask you where you got that necklace?" Emma looked back at the young lord and smiled, "James had given it to me...how come?" Ciel shook his head sighing, "It just happens to look like the necklace that was buried with my father that is all" James now frowned and glanced to Ciel, "he didn't happen to have this ring too did he..?"  James held up his hand and showed him the ring, to which Ciel nodded slowly eyes wide.

Sebastian burst out laughing hysterically, "oh my god! Hahaha James is actually Vincent fucking Phantomhive! Oh welcome back my lord!" he bowed sarcastically, and the other servants bowed along with everyone else in the room...except Emma who just stood there in shock.

James was Ciel's Father...
