Belle Adams' Butler
Waking up from a nightmare several hours before dawn, Belle fetched a drink of water. She paused in front of her kitchen's window when she noticed a lit lantern in front of her mansion's garden. Her butler stood there, shovel in hand. This was no hour to be gardening. Curious, she made her way outside, but when she had gotten close enough to see a large and hollow pit next to her eternally-stoic and polite butler, she saw him pick up a rotten body. A DEAD BODY! Her eyes widened fearfully when she saw her handsome butler drop the rotting body into the fresh hole. She asked in horror, "What are you doing?!" Surprised to see his young miss awake at this hour, he stared at her with the same expression he had been keeping up for all these years. He had made sure she was asleep before coming here. "Gardening." "And the body?!" she looked at him in disbelief. "Fertilizer," he answered her before picking up the shovel that was on the ground. Belle was now certain something had possessed her butler. Who gardened dead bodies?! She then heard him ask her, "Want to help me in planting it, Miss Adams?" he gave her a sweet smile.

Case of corruption- Part 2
Belle had already shown signs of being a corrupted vampire but that had come only in bits and pieces until now which meant her heart hadn't corrupted itself completely. As the ghoul moved its bony skeleton fingers towards her chest, she felt a jolt of pain run down her entire body when the fingers dipped deep into her chest with not a single drop of blood that came out and when the ghoul held her heart, she could feel it.
She took in a deep and careful breath, staring at the ghoul that slowly let go of her heart and pulled out its fingers from her chest.
And the ghoul finally said, "Corrupted."
She felt her heart sink hearing this and Lucas who was standing next to Belle noticed the way Belle's face fell which meant her heart had corrupted.
"How far is she corrupted?" asked Lucas. He had pulled out his clock to notice how the time appeared normal when he pointed the clock towards Belle.
