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~

Inn time- Part 1

Belle pushed the door open to notice there were no people inside the house, nor was there any furniture left. It was an empty house that was quiet and lonely amidst the snow-covered ground. As she thought, George's parents must have been killed not too far from the time when he was killed. 

She walked in further, running the surface of the walls with her hands but there was nothing in here. She ran her fingers, trying to find a speck or spark of death, but it was washed out. Taking a few steps back, she noticed how the walls were painted. They weren't new, but they were awfully clean for a house that she had already visited a few years ago when the walls were pale in complexion. 

"They must have predicted to clean the walls to get rid of any evidence," Lucas spoke her mind out.
