Prologue

The third book in the series The Queen's Lion. The Queen's Lion and The Queen's Lion: Disciplined can be found on my page and are needed to understand the premises and plot of this book.

Y/N has disappeared without a trace. The closest thing to a clue that was left behind was a single rose in a stolen vase, left on the windowsill of Y/N's room at the Phantomhive manor. With that as their only clue, Ciel Phanthomhive and Sebastian Michaelis must attempt to retrace the young Lady's steps from the night she went missing. To make matters worse, Y/N's underworld title as 'The Queen's Lion' demands she must stay a secret. No one can know that the Queen's most mysterious spy and the Watchdog's closest friend has disappeared, lest the underworld will fall into chaos and polite society will crumble at the Queen's feet. So how will Ciel and Sebastian find Y/N with only a rose to go by? What will she say when she's rescued? Is she even still alive to be rescued?

Warning: Mentions of canon typical violence, blood, death, rape, strong language, mugging, various weaponry and degradation through name calling. The reader is NEVER subjected to watch or experience rape though they discover many attempts against other women. I'm not gonna keep putting TW before chapters because I feel like it's starting to spoil the chapters unless something is beyond forked up, unless it is requested to bring them back for whatever reason.

I do not own Black Butler's characters/storyline or any other books/movies/shows etc mentioned/referenced in this fic!
