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. Note: If you enjoy a book of comedy with light-hearted romance and a gothic background. This book is for you~

Finding the truth- Part 3

Lucas and Belle stood up from their seats, thanking the magistrate for his kind work which was after Lucas had shown him the seal and then the clerk to leave the office. Once the couple had left, the clerk turned to look at the magistrate and ask,

"Was the seal real?" the woman still had her eyes looking at the door where the two visitors had left. 

"Very much real," answered the magistrate, his face hardening and his eyes meeting the clerk's eyes, "Go let the others know that someone is trying to dig the dead man's body."

The woman nodded her head, she blinked once and her eyes turned to slits. With another blink, her eyes turned back to be seen as a human. She left the office, leaving the magistrate behind who looked at the file that was opened to see the name of the councilman in there.
