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.

Message- Part 1
After what Lucas had said to her, Belle didn't need anything else to hear. She closed her eyes and smiled at the words. Her heart was flying like a bird that had learned to fly. To think that Lucas was willing to go through the ceremony of marriage just for her sake even though he wasn't keen on, it spoke volumes to her which she didn't need to hear more from him.
"Belle!" she heard Pauline call her and Belle turned to see her friend who was holding the bouquet of flowers in her hands. Pauline, her friend had escaped from the house and had got married to the man she loved. A human. Now that they were married, all Pauline would have to do was convert the man to a vampire and live with him.
Pauline put her hands around Belle, "Thank you for coming today. I didn't know who else to ask to be by my side," she could tell Pauline was being emotional right now.
