When Belle returned back, her head felt heavier than usual. The loss she felt had created a wound in her heart and now that she knew that the black witches were after her for something she had no control over, it ached her heart. The carriage was pulled in front of the mansion and she didn't wait for anyone to open it. Pushing the door herself, she stepped out to be followed by Lucas who kept a fair distance, giving her the space she needed. She picked up Mr. Fluffs from one of the stairs to take him…

Hearing what Baltimore said, Isabell didn't change her demeanor and sat in front of him with her back facing him as she sat a bench ahead of him. As distant as some of the memories seemed, there were some things she couldn't forget, how could she. It was a few years ago when the incident had taken place. Back in Valeria, Isabell was once happily married to the Lord of Valeria and she had a lovely son. It was a family she was fortunate to have because the life of a white witch was never good. Troubles…

Before Isabelle had even turned around she knew who had appeared in the church. Another reaper. When she turned around, she saw the man in a black suit and a black coat that covered himself. He had a curly brown fringe at the front of his head which was parted at the side to have short hair on the other side. His eyes were narrowed and his lips thinner than most people she had come across which were wide as he smiled at her now. "Baltimore," she greeted the reaper who was the tenth card of the Grim's.…

Belle gave Isabell a perplexed look because she didn't understand why the witches would want to kill her, "That can't be true," she whispered. "Come with me, Belle," asked Isabell as she stood up from the bench, "It will be easier to explain it to you," when Belle's eyes met Lucas, she saw him give her a nod to tell Isabell meant well and no harm, "You too, Lucas." She followed the woman by taking the side door that led to a room through a corridor. The room was filled with books and potions. The…

Belle looked back at the statue in doubt, "Chosen One?" asked Belle to Sister Isabell. She turned to look at Lucas who had taken a seat at the bench. She wondered what was chosen here. She had lost her parents last night and the pain felt like it would never cease. "Yes," answered Sister Isabell, "Most of the churches in the past were built by witches. These witches were way ahead of their time, you could call them oracles who foresaw a few events hundreds of years ago. To be able to correct their…

Belle stared at Lucas, her red eyes questioning him, "I know they got corrupted...but corruption doesn't take place without a reason, does it?" she asked him. Something had gone wrong, something happened which they weren't aware of. She wanted to know if the people of the council had found out anything as there were here for hours now. She wanted to know what happened to her father who had been perfectly fine with her mother when she had left the room, it was like a nightmare that she couldn't…

Belle sat with her parents, her tears falling one after another until there was no more as they had started to dry. Her mind felt numb, her thoughts scattered all over the place that made nothing sense right now. Her father had lost his heart which was undoubtedly the work of Lucas but her mother, her kind mother's head was not only ripped out but it was...it was broken and squashed that brought tears back in her eyes. It was just moments ago that she was talking to her parents in this very room. She…

Belle was too stunned to move or talk as she stood with her back against the wall outside the room which she didn't dare to see on Lucas' words. Her hands were colder than usual and her mind was barely functioning. When Lucas returned to Belle's side, he had tried to clean most of the blood from his hand from the kerchief and he looked at her where she stared into space. It wasn't uncommon for people to get into shock, it was the first time Belle had seen people dying unnaturally, killing each other and…

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…

"You know you can tell me anything, right?" said her mother as he held her hand which rested on her mother's lap, "You were always like this even when you were small. As much as you would speak on random things when it came to your deep feelings, you were always quiet in that matter." "Belle was the naughtiest child if you asked me, Mabel," her father chipped in, a chuckle erupting through his mouth, "Now she is less naughty. I remember the time she threw a stone at the orchard tree and Ms. Gwen was…
