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?!"

"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~

In the carriage now, she looked outside the window where the lands were completely covered in snow except for the streets in the towns and the villages that had been cleaned. 

Though they were the three fated stars, from what she had heard from the first Grim of the cards, the oracle, she had told not to discuss with the other stars as it would create another effect. Therefore, it was better that they didn't come in contact with each other but Belle knew about the other two. 

After some thought, Belle decided to tap on the window to catch her coachman's attention and she said,
