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~

In the dead- Part 3

When the weaker mighoul got torn apart by another creature which Belle came to believe was the spirit, she could feel chills running down her body. She saw how the spirit opened its mouth wide open and slowly started to suck the soul which was somewhat white and light blue in colour, like vapours. It continued to suck the mighoul before throwing the body on the ground. 

She would have never known a spirit could look as hideous as what she was seeing right now. When Lucas and Belle had sent the spirits back to the land of the dead, they were nothing but shadows that lurked in the dark but here, in the realm of the dead they were more than just shadows. Belle knew these were shadows because of the black fumes that kept moving at the hem of their robes. By appearance, they were a mixed breed between a mighoul and a lower level reaper. Body made of skeletons who wore black robes. Their hair was grey in colour because it was made out of white smoke.
