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~

Book of dead- Part 3

The book was wrapped in a dark brown leather that Belle was able to read the name that was written outside on it. Having the ability to tap the forbidden magic and read the words and spells, Belle didn't have an issue when it came to reading past the magic that was placed on the book. 

"How the heck did you even get that book with you?" asked Catina with evident shock in her voice. 

"Some years ago, the book was considered to be lost. They searched the entire land but they didn't find it," explained Lucas, his hand turning the book that was in his hand, "I didn't want anyone to have it, therefore, I sent the book to the living world."

The timekeeper shook her head in disbelief, "It was a risky thing to do. What if it went in someone's hand that was not supposed to go?"
