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~

Stealing- Part 2

Lucas noted on how Isabell kept coughing blood from her mouth. He doubted it was because of her body, "What happened to you?"

"Did you think I would have a much more peaceful death?" Isabell asked him.

The Thirteenth Grim tched, "I didn't. When you skip and cheat death, death comes back again. You appear to be in much better shape," he said. His words made her smile. 

"I guess I do."

"Who was it? Your letter wasn't of much help," said Lucas. The only thing she had mentioned was about checking about the abduction of people and the black witches who had scattered in the land of the Bonelake. 

"But I am guessing you already found some of the lost people," her eyes that were looking in front of her, shifted to Lucas, "The children," he gave her a nod.

"You found the others?" he asked her. Lucas pulled out his pocket watch, opening to see how much more time she had.
