Belle hearing the man who was Guivenver's grandson asked, "Did your grandfather ever mention about seeing strange things or anything out of the blue there?"

"None that I could remember of. It was the council who first ceased the mansion because they wanted to see where the bodies had disappeared and if I remember right it was almost a year before it was given back for sale," replied Michael to her, "I doubt the previous owners ever went to look for this supposed treasures that didn't exist because they found the place to be very eerie. Oh, yes! Their daughter, she fell sick and pa.s.sed away because of some illness. I mean which vampire falls sick? They have better resistance, don't they?" on these words, Belle and Lucas's eyes moved to the mag where Barron was sitting quietly. 

He was the only one who could have infected the girl with illness. Feeling the silence coming from Barron it was confirmed that it was indeed Barron. 

Michael then continued to say, "My grandfather stopped working as the keeper and when the previous family was still there. He stopped visiting there."

"I see," answered Bell, she doubted the man would know anything more than from the story his grandfather had told him. 

"Did you notice any strange things in the mansion?" asked Michael, his own brown eyes looking at her and Lucas curiously if the rumours that went around in the past was true. 

Lucas was the one to reply to this, who said, "We recently had rumours about the mansion. Some speak of the ghosts and some speak about turning rich through the mansion," he smiled politely to see Michael nod, "We should get going now," and they got up, ready to leave. 

When they stepped out the small house, Belle turned back to look at the man to ask, "If you don't mind, could you tell me where your grandfather was buried? I would like to pay my respect to him."

Michael stared at the girl who was a vampiress, not out of suspicion but because by the clothes she wore it was obvious she came from a higher family and she wanted to meet a person's grave who she had never met before.

"You will find him in the forest before the river here. We don't have a grave in this town because of how things are here," answered the man and Belle nodded her head. 

"Thank you for speaking to us," she thanked him, bowing her head and Lucas did the same, they then left. 

As they made their way out of this village, Belle came to see some people who had shadows of black that surrounded them to indicate they were going to die and she stuck closer to Lucas. 

"There are too many people. Too many who are going to die," whispered Belle, she s.h.i.+fted her eyes away from the people as it would be rude to stare. 

"It is a town where people do shady things. Death is bound to follow the ones who live here which makes me question why Guivenver was living in a place like this. Mostly outcasts and the ones who don't find anywhere else come live here. The man was mansion keeper of the grounds, to look after it. He must have been given enough money yet the person lived here," said Lucas and once they were out of the village, Barron was let out to be free where no one was there. Even if one were to see him, it could be told that from a distance he looked like a rabbit. 


They were heading to the forest and Belle asked, "Barron, were you the one who infected the girl?" 

"It must be me. I visit a lot of places, sometimes I visit a place multiple times so I don't remember any favourites," replied Barron and it seemed like asking him any question was going to be pointless if he didn't remember anything. 

Belle who knew less about the history of the mansion she lived in asked Lucas, "How long was it since it happened. The death of the people. Do you know?" 

"More than a century I suppose. There have been no dates as everything is clean. There's no belonging of the families which I think is because of the family that came after, removed and put out everything they found to be useless," he replied back to her, "What do you plan to do going to the grave?"

"I thought to see if I could find any memories of death. Of how he died."

"It might be a natural death by age. Average vampires get old and eventually die with only an extended time of life."

Barron who walked ahead of them, his feet carrying him quickly turned around to stop and ask, "You didn't bring any shovel," he looked at Lucas, he then turned to look at Belle wondering how she would be able to find the cause of death. 

"We can come back later for it," Lucas responded. Digging the grave in the middle of the day would only bring suspicion if someone was walking by from here.

 They continued to walk to finally find ruins of a small church that was broken. There were tombs around it. Some made of stones and some made of woods as a headstone. 

Barron walked even quicker as if forgetting what happened the last time he was at the cemetery, "There are far far too many graves that it appears to be. A lot of the headstones have been washed away in time."

Belle looking at the place felt like she was in the land of the tombstones. They had to find the name Guivenver on the stone or wood and she looked for it along with Lucas while Barron decided to take a seat against a headstone. 

They heard the crows caw at a distant and the water flowing in the river which wasn't far from where they were; they finally found the grave of Guivenver.
