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~

Book of dead- Part 2

Belle looked around them, looking at one end of the river to another to see that Rower and Greed had indeed disappeared. They were nowhere to be seen and Barron said, "Catina, you can change time and see, can't you?" 

Catina looked around to make sure that there were no reapers who were looking at them, "Alright." 

Barron quickly moved near Belle, his limbs moving excitedly as he picked a stone from the ground and said, "Belle, check this one out." Belle saw Barron move his hand back before throwing the stone into the river. Before the stone could touch the surface of the water to sink down, it stopped mid-air. 

Belle frowned and turned back to look at the timekeeper who had stopped time. The water that had been softly moving to waver had stopped its movements. The creatures in the river looked frozen, leaves that were falling down from the trees had stopped midway, hanging in the air without any support.
