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.

Snowflakes- Part 4
Little Belle was upset and sad that her cousin brothers and sisters had left her, enjoying their time together while stealing her snowman's nose and hands without giving them back to her. It wasn't the first time and she didn't understand why they did it. All she wanted to do was play with them but they always left her. Either it was by isolating her or leaving her behind while playing seek because it didn't matter if she was there or not.
With her knees pulled close to her chest, her small hands held her knees now. Sitting on the snow-covered roof, she looked at the children who were playing and bragging about each other's snowmen while her's looked lonely just like hers.
"What are you doing here, Miss Belle?" asked Lucas who had gone to the back of the house to throw the garbage when he had noticed the girl sitting on the roof.
"Trying to freeze to death!" came the quick outburst that had Lucas raise his brows at her.
