You were nothing more than a forgotten child, a nameless commoner plucked from the streets and thrust into the depths of a nightmare. Taken against your will, you became a subject of cruel and inhumane experiments, your body and mind pushed beyond their limits. The things they did to you… the pain, the fear—it was endless. Until, by some stroke of fate, the royal guards raided the facility, putting an end to your suffering.

But even as you were freed, the damage had been done. You weren’t broken beyond repair, but the scars ran deep—so deep that when you finally met the noble boy behind your rescue, Ciel Phantomhive, something inside you latched onto him. He became your tether to reality, the only constant in the chaos that was your mind. Without him near, panic would consume you, overwhelming your senses until doctors were forced to sedate you.

No one knew what to do. There seemed to be only one solution—to take you back to the Phantomhive manor, where you could be under constant supervision. Ciel didn’t entirely approve of the arrangement, but he wasn’t completely against it either. Perhaps he pitied you, or perhaps he simply saw you as another responsibility. Regardless, he set strict rules to keep you in check, and to ensure you wouldn’t embarrass him, Sebastian was assigned to teach you proper etiquette and discipline.
