Grell was frozen with fear as William began to undo the red heads tie. Grell was about to close his eyes so he didn't see what was about to happen when a flash of silver flew past cutting the back of William's hand. The knife had cut right through the black leather gloves the shinigami wore. William turned to see a rather angry male demon. In Sebastian's left hand he held two more of the sliver butter knives and in the other hand the baby William had been hunting.

"As much as I hate that stupid mutt he makes a good guard dog"

Immediately William turned and pressed the clamp edge of his scythe into Grell's neck. "Hand over the child or this one dies demon"

Sebastian smirked "you wouldn't Spears. With how much you bitch over being under staffed?

William pressed on the scythe harder and Grell's hands flew up to grip the pole of the scythe as he began to gasp his face going red. A trickle of blood ran down the pale neck. The baby that was already fussy and hungry suddenly started wailing for his mother. Distracted by the sudden noise William's grip on his the scythe loosened. Grell fell to his knees coughing roughly holding his neck where the pinchers had cut into the flesh. Using the sudden distraction Sebastian pulled out several more of the deadly butter knives he flung them all into the dark haired reapers chest. William now lay on his back bleeding from several wounds. Sebastian moved forward quickly putting his right foot on the knives lodged in the shinigami's and pressed down. William screamed in pain.

Sebastian's eyes silted and turned pink. "This Spears is why you never-"he pressed down on the knives harder "-threaten a demon's mate or kit"

Grell was still on the floor watching with wide eyes. Sebastian toke his foot off the wounded reaper and made his way over to Grell. The demon returned the wailing baby to his mother who quickly soothed the infant. Taking his time as if he did this everyday Sebastian opened out the window and tossed out William's limp and bloody but still alive body.

Grell stood slowly still in shock over everything that had just happened. Slowly a smile crept over his face. "Sebby-chan you called me your mate-

Sebastian smiled. Since Grell was using that pet name again that meant he must be feeling better. Sebastian bowed a smile crossing his handsome face as well. "Indeed I did my lady. By the way Grell you never told me what you named your baby."

Grell's smile widened. "Ryan. Ryan Sebastian Michaelis.
