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~

Time keeper- Part 1

The guests in the Adams mansion started to leave one by one. Some like Belle's relatives who were not pleased with her engagement had decided to leave early. Belle didn't mind it. After all, they had called the relatives just for a show and nothing more than that. Her attachment to her mother's and father's side of relatives had been lost when her parents had passed away where none had offered or thought to come see how she was doing. Somewhere deep down she had thought that there would be a letter but there was none of it. If it weren't for Lucas next to her, Belle was sure that she would have broken down. 

Belle was speaking to Edith, about dance as if it was something she was interested in doing right now.
