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~
Belle looked at the maid who she had spoken to this morning in the garden who was now dead on the floor. More screams were heard and she quickly went down to come in front of a few more servants who were all corrupted.
She saw Lucas killing them one after another, moving his hands and legs to throw them off and to tear their head away. For someone who had been sheltered, everything that was happening in front of her felt too fast where she was trying to grasp what just happened a few minutes ago? There was too much blood on the white walls as Lucas didn't make use of stakes but used his hands to kill them.
"Belle!" Lucas called her when a maid came right at her, he was already killing the maids and other servants who had turned into corrupted vampires.
