Belle Adams' Butler

Chapter 171 - Finding More- Part 2

Father Connor didn't know what the bond meant when Belle mentioned it. The maximum he had heard was the soulbond which was very common with the pureblooded vampires, "I don't think I have ever come across it before," confessed Father Connor while Belle was staring at candles.

"It's a bond that was used years ago. Decades and centuries which not many are aware of," the irreversible bond was a bond different from soul bond where one followed the death with another. What was there on her neck right now, it was a bond that was absolute. Even if the couple died, they would find their way back to each other.

No matter how many times they would die, their souls would find their way back to each other.

She was Evelyn, the house belonged to her and Lucas was Guilt. It would have been confusing where she would have questioned how both the twelfth as well as the thirteenth existed without the higher ups and the other Grim's knowledge. Guilt had spoken about the essence and that was Lucas. Belle had heard from Barron how Lucas had never appeared in the summit they had. He hadn't appeared not even once to show himself and had only been a mystery like phantom where his name was known.

"Thank you for your help again," Belle bowed her head which was when she and Father Connor heard footsteps enter the church.

Belle turned to see who had come here at this hour of the night as villagers and the townsmen had gone back to their houses or were heading in the direction.

A man in a suit walked down the aisle. He had brown curly hair at the front, thin lips and eyes that looked proud. Father Connor who was under Sister Isabell's guidance had heard about this man.

This was not good, thought Father Connor to himself. The timing had turned out to be bad where Belle was here in his presence.

"Good evening, Father Connor," the man bowed his head, his bow a little more dramatic that had Belle give him a look of suspicion, "I was passing by and I thought to visit the church."

"Baltimore," Father Connor greeted and then turned to look at Belle with a smile, "Do not worry about your brother. It is just the change in the weather that must be affecting his health. Children are very susceptible to it. I heard the sun will be up tomorrow, a good amount of light will do good to him."

Belle was surprised with the sudden made-up story that had her alert that this man who had entered the church was good cause trouble.

"There's not going to be light tomorrow," interrupted the man, "It is the time of Winter and the sky along with the rest of the atmosphere is preparing for snow. The church is no place to ask for help, you should ask a doctor for help," and as Belle's eyes started to concentrate on the man, her hands went further to clutch on her skirt. There was evident smoke around but he wasn't going to die. The closer she looked at him, the more she realized that this person who was in front of her was a not living person.

Baltimore picked a scent which felt strange. He looked back at the girl with his eyes turning curious. A vampire's brother falling sick, how could it happen when the Fourth Grim who had disappeared off duties could go infect anyone? The Tenth Grim found it to be suspicious.

"You're right," Belle agreed, and then decided to leave when Baltimore said,

"I am a doctor. Why don't I come to look at your brother? I will be able to prescribe the right medicine," this had both Father Connor as well as Belle have alarmed feelings in their mind.

Belle quickly refused his help by saying, "I have a particular doctor who happens to be away today. I just came here for some hope. I will wait for the doctor," she said.

"I insist," Baltimore was persistent in his words and Belle could see the way his eyes looked at her. There was doubt in his eyes. The more she would try to wade him off the more he would get on her case, thought Belle to herself, "You have my word that I am an excellent physician."

Belle didn't know what to do. This could end up bad in some many different directions, "My brother would not be comfortable," she tried to wiggle her way out. When his eyes turned pitch black, Belle affirmed that this person was indeed a reaper.

"I am very good with children," Baltimore replied back and said, "Let's go in your carriage quickly so that I can see what is hovering over your little brother."

Not only didn't she have a carriage, Belle had no little brother! Who was she going to show if this man was to come to her mansion?! She had by now started to panic and she finally said,

"I came here by foot. You wouldn't mind walking, do you? And where is your doctor kit?"

Baltimore noticed that this vampiress was a smart one when it came to asking and verifying him.

"I have it right outside. Walking is fine. We always need to help people," saying this, he looked at Father Connor and bowed his head. A glint of a smile in his eyes as he left the church with the girl.

Father Connor who knew about the Grims' existence and what was going, now worried. The timing was truly unfortunate and there was no Lady Isabell to handle it.

When both the vampiress as well as the reaper left, Father Connor made a quick dash to lock the doors of the front of the church and then ran backside. Untying the horse to travel to the Adams' mansion so that he could relay the message of what was coming home.

She could feel the reapers' suspicious eyes looking at her as they walked with a distance between them.
