Ciel was exhausted and weak yet happy as the healer placed the secomd baby girl in his arms, behind him, Sebastian cradled Angelina, he smiled at the newborn .

"I am very proud of you Ciel, you never cease to amaze me, you were right, they do look like me, their tiny clawed hands, and red eyes, they are simply-"

"They're perfect, aren't you Kathryn, you don't know it yet but you'll find out soon enough that you, your sisters and brothers are the most precious things in the world to us." Ciel gently kissed his daughter's head. The healer smiled.

"The children you have are lucky, look at the two of you, those girls have been here all of five minutes and they're already comfortable, were you nervous at all when little Kathryn was wrapped up in the-"

"No. My children are strong, they're fighters if they have to be, just like their father." Ciel replied. Kathryn looked around through partially closed eyes, filled with wonder.

"It's a beautiful place little one, and you have your whole life to explore it. But I promise you and Angelina that you won't ever have to do that alone.". Angelina began to whimper in her father's arms.

"You want a chance to see your mother I see, I will not stop you, if you will calm yourself, I will give you to your mother so that you may bond and I can see your sister." The healer helped them make the switch and Ciel settled his child close to his heart.

"Hello Angelina, I'm happy to finally have you here. You're so precious, if I wasn't so exhausted I'd hold you two all day. The three of us need to sleep though, I won't always need so much sleep, soon we'll all be up all night but that's alright once we get through these next few sleepy days, I'll bw able to hold you more." Ciel held the little girl's hand and she gripped his finger as she closed her eyes and slept. Ciel gave her a gentle kiss before the healer took the infants and placed them in their cradles. Sebastian weapon his arms around his mate.

"Are you in pain love?"

"Not as bad as it was before."

"I should say not, after giving birth to twins and taking the medication only after they entered this world-"

"He couldn't promise me it wouldn't hurt my girls, I had to wait."

"Most mothers, rare as demon mothers are, risk it." The healer informed them.

"I told you this before, I'm not most Mothers. I won't risk my children's lives for my own comfort. I'm so tired."

"You need your rest, perhaps It's best to do so."

"You should know by now that I encourage mothers to sleep right after they give birth. Its vital to recovery. I will keep an eye on you three as you sleep."

"Sebastian, I told Lizzy you'd let her know I'm alright after they were born."

"I shall do that for you Ciel, when you are ready for visitors, she will of course want to see the three of you. For this reason, I believe we should wait. That's fine, as long as she knows.'Ciel couldn't fight the sleep anymore and drifted off with Sebastian's arms still around him.

The young demon woke several hours later to find himself resting comfortably against his mate.

"Good morning love, feel better?"

"A little, you didn't have to sit here like this, you could have-"

"I wanted to."

"How long did I sleep?"

"Just around three hours. If you are still tired, I would remain here, the older children are still asleep, Mey-Rin went to check on them, so I had her tell lady Elizabeth that everything went well. Naturally everyone is excited to meet them. Mother and Father are downstairs with beth, but I think that when the time comes, and it is only a thought, since the twins are new and you are recovering, we should allow the children to see their sisters and your guests first, of course they will wish to stay while others visit but-"

"It's fine."

"the healer will want to check you shortly."

"I really don't care what he wants right now."

"My dear Ciel, it is for your health."

"That doesn't mean I have to like it. "

"That's true, but for myself and our children you must allow it."

"I know, I didn't say I wouldn't."

"Good, if something happened to you-"

"Nothing will. I have a very reliable source that tells me everything's going to be fine."

"What source?"

"Our oldest son." Ciel was beginning to close his eyes again.

"Evian is your source?"

"He knows things Sebastian, things that are impossible for him to know. Don't tell me he's never told you something like that."

"He did. He told me of my past, and when you and I had that argument, the really terrible one, he heard not one word but came to me and said that although you were very angry with my actions, you would not leave, you would still love me when you calmed down." At that point in time, my heart was breaking, you told me that you could no longer stay with me. Not a day later, you came to me and we remained together. He has also asked about things that he has never seen, but describeed them in great detail. Our son has a gift."

"Is it a gift, couldn't it hurt him somehow, I mean if he sees something that-"

"It could. He has a very special talent, not all demons possess."

"What did he describe to you?"

"The night I lost you. He came to me in tears from a nightmare just the other day. He told me he was standing in the street and he spoke of the flames, the bridge and you lying in my arms but you wouldn't respond to me when I called you. I can only assume he watched you- that is not the first time, he has actually shown it to me, when he was younger."

"I remember you telling me, he may not, probably blocked it out, poor thing."

"Well, are you able to have the children visit?" Ciel couldn't possibly go to sleep now, he felt terrible about what his child had gone through.

"Yes. Maybe it'll keep his mind on better things." He let Sebastian up and leaned against the headboard Angelina let out a soft growl.

"Is she alright?" Sebastian stood over the cradles.

"Physically, I think she needs her mother, Kathryn is still asleep."

"Will you bring her to me?"

"Of course." Sebastian lifted his unhappy daughter and carried her to Ciel, placing her gently in his arms.

"You must allow me to put those hats on them soon, they would make such adorable kittens. Then again, they are beautiful as they are, our little puppies."

"Stop that."

"I cannot pass up the opportunity, not while both your hands are busy and unable to throw things in my direction. If it makes you feel any better, I never reference your queen, the one that caused you so much pain, I speak of my mother the queen, those guard dog remarks mean nothing more. They are not meant ro hurt you."

"I don't want our children growing up and getting involved in something like that. If one day they-"

"They do not understand my love, it is all in fun. I will attempt to cut down the usage."

"I just worry one day they'll-"

"You are afraid of them getting hurt as you did, that will never happen. I promise you that."

"There are people who would try to hurt them, Hannah can't be the only one with-"

"She isn't, there are two known to exist, and I know the location of them both. My Father has the second, our children are safe. Anyway, do you honestly think I would let anyone that close to my family?"

"No, I know you wouldn't."

"Good. I love you." Sebastian kissed him lovingly.

"I love you too." The older demon smiled. He placed his hand on his mate's head and rubbed it.

"I shall return shortly with our pups, be sure to guard them carefully my dear, such a good boy Ciel, a truly wonderful mother, yes you are." He chuckled. This time, Ciel smiled faintly.

"You do like your little jokes don't you?"

"Just as much as you love your games."

"Let's see how well Grell handles them when you go live with him for the rest of your life."

"Oh Ciel, you and I both know it would never work that way, I mean honestly, Grell and I, for all eternity, what would our children look like, certainly if-"

"You'd never have children with that loon." Ciel chuckled along with his mate.

"I don't know love, forever is an awfully long time and I may miss ours, then again, I cam just imagine, tiny demons who look exactly like me except for their..red hair, and oh Ciel, you are absolutely right, I could not have terrible images are too much for even me." Both laughed.

"I hate you" Ciel chuckled

"You wish you could." The older demon kissed Ciel once more and left to get their children and guests. Ciel looked down at his daughter now lying quietly in his arms.

"Somwtimes your father drives me up a wall, but at the end of the day, if I didn't have him, I don't know what I'd do."Angelina seemed to calm down.

"Everyone's going to love you two, Your cousin Lizzy will have a fit when she sees you. The servants, I think you two would really like them, they're our extended family I suppose you could say. They were so happy to know I was going to have you, they really are a good group. You'll learn that fairly quickly. Your brothers and sister are going to be so happy you're here too."

"Children, It's very important that you are very quiet, your sisters are very small and loud noises may frighten them., also, your mother is very tired and a little pale, do not be afraid, he is alright."

"Can we hug mommy?" Rachel whispered. Ciel smiled.

"Sounds like our visitors are here, hopefully they listen and stay quiet."

"Brothers, they are here, our babies are finally here, I am so happy."

"Yes, this is a happy thing, our babies are very special because they are ours and no one else has them." Vincent said.

"I want to see them, and even though they are girls I will be nice with them." Rowan promised.

"Dad, we should see mama, he will be so happy to see us."

"Are you sure he's okay Sebastian?" Lizzy asked.

"Your cousin worries a lot sometimes, but It's only because she cares." Ciel explained to the infant.

"Yes, he is very tired but he will live."

"It really was nice of the young master to invite us to see his new babies."

"Quiet everyone please. One child is asleep and Ciel is supposed to be resting. "

"This is so exciting." Ann whispered. Sebastian lead them in quietly and the room was soon filled with guests each holding back their shouts of happiness at the sight of Ciel sitting up in bed holding this baby girl.

"Mommy, she is so pretty." Rachel whispered approaching the bed. "Where is our other baby, can we see here too?" Sebastian moved to the cradles and carefully lifted his child into his arms and sat down on the bed to show her to the family.

"Daddy, she looks the same, how did you do that mommy." Everyone chuckled softly at the question.

"I didn't Rachel, they're identical twins, that's just how it happened."

"They are so little." Vincent commented in awe of the beings that were in his parents' arms.

"Look at that smile on our son's face Ann, I don't think he will be rid of it anytime soon." The devil said.

"Mum, I am very happy they don't live in your tummy anymore, now we can see them, they are not boys, but they are good."

"What have you called them mama?" Evian asked.

"I have Angelina, and Kathryn is with your father."

"Angel!" The four older children said in unison. The devil shook his head in amusement.

"A demon called Angel, you don't see that everyday."

"Can I please touch her hand mommy?" Rachel asked.

"You have to ask someone to help you up here, your father is holding your sister. She turned to Alois.

"Will you help me get to mommy please?" She asked sweetly. Alois obliged.

Rachel reached out to the baby and lightly touched her hand.

"Hello baby sister, you are very soft, I am Rachel and I love you so very much. I will be a good big sister for you and baby Kathryn. I would very much like to call her baby Kate. I will teach you how to play tea and make things, thank you very much for not being bad to mommy. We love him and would be so unhappy." Angelina looked at her sister as she spoke.

"Look mommy, she is hearing me."

"Yes, she likes it when you talk to her. "

"You know Love, our children are very gentle, very loving. I think perhaps with help, they can be permitted to hold their sisters." Sebastian suggested.

"After all they did look after you very well while you were carrying them."

"Yes they did."

"Oh mommy, please may I hold them, please I have never held a real sister before." Rachel pleaded.

"Yes Rachel you can hold them. But you have to be very careful."

"I think we should take some photos as well. If someone would be kind enough to hold Kathryn, I could use the camera.

"Give her to me, you would not deprive a grandmother of holding her newborn granddaughter would you?" Ann said.

"Certainly not." Sebastian handed the infant to his mother. Sebastian took out his camera and stood at the foot of the bed.

"Rachel, sit close to your mother." The little girl listened and with Ciel's help was soon grinning widely at the camera with little 'Angel' and then Kathryn.

"Let's let your brothers have a turn now." Ciel said.

"Thank you so much mommy, thank you for our new babies." Alois helped her down. After each child had their picture taken with the new family members, Sebastian did the same with his parents, both smiled at their tiny granddaughters.

"You have good parents young ones, they love you dearly. You will see that I am not as frightening as I seem." The king told them. When Lizzy got her turn she had to fight back the urge to squeal with delight. For her pictures, Sebastian suggested she be close to Ciel.

"Ciel, they're so adorable, I love them."

Tanaka was next, Sebastian took a photo of each servant with both children. Each one welcomed the girls gladly and promised to always care for them.

"Alois, do you think you'd want to hold them?" Ciel offered.

"You want me to?"

"Only if you want to." Ciel replied. Alois nodded.

"I'd like that " Ciel handed Kathryn to him. Naveen stood behind his mate placing his hands on the blonde boy's shoulders and looking down at his new cousin.

"Ciel, she's beautiful, so tiny." He cooed holding her close.

"He's naturally good with her, he would have been a great mother." Ann whispered to her son.

"It's nice to hold her, Naveen I-"Alois gasped as the young princess grasped his finger, Naveen worried that it might hurt his mate but was surprised by the reaction.

"Hello little princess, I'm Alois, you'll see me a lot, I'm part of the guard for your family, and I'm also part of your family, you have an amazing family and you will both have so much love. Naveen-" he said giving the baby back to Ciel.

"Yes my precious one?"

"I want one." Naveen hugged him.

"I know love, maybe one day." He said.

"Until then, you can come over and play with our little ones." Ciel invited.

"Thank you, I think holding your babies helped me, I don't feel so sad."

"Good." After everyone had their turn, they allowed Ciel and Sebastian some alone time. The healer has been put off until later since you are doing so well, he was worried about you fainting from your-"

"Just because It's common doesn't mean it happens to every mother."

"But with your history, you could have had another bleeding issue or-"

"I'm fine, I just need to rest and the babies will want to eat soon, I don't have the time to faint from 'blood loss' as the healer put it."

"I am very happy to hear that Ciel. Are you well enough for your special guests?"

"I think so, I just-" Angelina seemed to be angry once again and Sebastian handed her to her mother, she relaxed instantly.

"As much as I love you, I can't hold you all night, I need some sleep little one."

"Masters, the special guests have arrived." Cynna announced.

"Show them in." Sebastian instructed.

"Who else did you invite?"

"Do you recall telling me before you had Vincent and Rachel that part of you wished your family could be here when you had them?"

"Yes. It would be nice to have my mother and father here, and madam red was always like a second mother to me, to have them here now would be wonderful. Though I can't imagine what they'd say about seeing me after I just gave birth to-"

"We might say something close to, Ciel we are so very proud of you, and we love you so much." His mother's voice came from the doorway causing Ciel to turn to see them.

"Or we may ask how you're feeling and tell you how much we miss you." Vincent Phantomhive added as they walked in, tears filled Ciel's eyes his parents knelt down beside his bed and Rachel reached out to stroke his hair.

"I don't know about those two, but I would certainly love to meet the new babies." Madam red said from behind them.

"You're really here again."

"Yes Ciel, We are."

"How-"

"Sebastian must love you very much." Madam Red sat down on the edge of the bed.

"More than can be said. Thank you all for accepting my invitation." Sebastian greeted them warmly.

"We wouldn't miss a chance to be here for our son and grandchildren."

"My great nieces and nephews. Ciel dear, what you said means so much to me."

"I'm so happy you're all here."

"So are we Ciel, your Mother and I miss you so much."

"Who's this adorable little girl?" Madam Red asked looking at the infant in Ciel's arms.

"Her names is.. Angelina." Madam Red kissed Ciel's head.

"You named her after me?" Ciel nodded.

"I don't deserve the honor."

"Do you want to hold her, Sebastian can bring Kathryn over and you can see her too." Soon Rachel and Vincent were cradling their granddaughters happily and Sebastian was back behind the camera.

"I can't tell you what this means ro me, to have you here."

"We love you and you've done an amazing job." Ciel leaned back.

"Are you alright, you don't think you'll-"

"How old are the little darlings?" Madam Red asked the panicked father.

"Four hours old now."

"Sebastian, as a doctor, I can tell you that if Ciel has remained concious this entire time and stays in his bed, It's not likely that he's going to faint. That happens when the mother's blood pressure drops suddenly from too much activity such as standing up too soon after the birth, he hasn't done that, and I haven't examined him but he looks like he's doing very well right now, don't worry. But its my professional opinion that ' Ciel needs time to rest now, he's probably in a lot of pain and still tired."

"I can't sleep now.". Ciel protested allowing his mother to take the baby and lay her in the cradle, then gently lay him down on the pillows.

"You must Ciel, having children is very hard on the mother, lie doen now."

"I'm not ready for you to leave, it always-" Rachel kisses his head.

"Saying goodbye is never easy my dear. But this time, when we part, I promise to return to you soon. This goodbye is not forever."

"You mean that, you'll come back?"

"Yes. Sebastian has extended an invitation to each of us that is never ending."

"He's given all of us a great gift, we will see you for birthdays, holidays, anytime you need door has been opened and we have accepted." Vincent explained as Rachel fixed the blanket around her son.

"So rest and no more tears, we will be here when you wake." Ciel hugged them tightly before they left. The older demon laid down next to his mate.

"I have been searched for a way to give you back your family since the Christmas I found a temporary solution."

"I don't know what you did, but you're amazing Sebastian, for everything you do and-"

"Behind every great demon, there is a remarkable mate who has taught him to be that way. I am not as amazing as you believe I am. I did not bring twins into this world and-" Ciel kissed him.

"You really are. I don't know what to say, thank you isn't enough."

"My darling Ciel, this is my way of thanking you. You allowed me to be a father, a mate and experience true love. I need nothing more." Ciel shifted closer to Sebastian laying his head on the older demon's chest. Ciel Michaelis realized he had everything he could ever want.

A/n: wow long final chapter. I want to thank you all so much for sharing our family. I can't believe how many of you have been with Ciel and Sebastian from the beginning and stayed through each story. It really is encouraging. So thank you so much for allowing me to share them with you.
