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.

In your arms- Part 3
When Belle had mentioned indirectly about how lonely it was to sleep alone, she hadn't expected Lucas to agree to move into her room. She had butterflies in her stomach while she sat on the bed, looking at Lucas walk in and out of the room where he was carrying things from his previous room to the space she had created for him.
There was a wide grin on her lips which she tried to hide but she couldn't.
"Belle," Barron called her name, who was watching Lucas move around as he said with Belle on the bed, "Can I get a room for myself too? I was thinking about that corner room where you can see the town and village. Maybe a nice quilt and add some woods in there."
"You don't feel cold. Why do you need the woods to be burned in the room?" asked Lucas with his back facing them.
Barron nudged his hand on Belle's leg for attention so that she wouldn't listen to Lucas, "What do you say?" he asked her.
