The ghoul returned early in the morning before the dawn could break out, going to stand next to the bed where Belle and Lucas\' were fast asleep in each other\'s arms. The ghoul wore clothes that were similar to death reapers and the only distinguishing feature was that the ghoul didn\'t have a face. Their head was always hooded, covering what was there without letting anyone see. It moved its boney, skeleton hand towards Belle. Wanting to reach out for the girl\'s heart. As it moved further, it\'s hands reaching her chest, Lucas\' eyes snapped open and the creature stopped its hand from moving forward.

Lucas didn\'t know what exactly the ghoul was trying to achieve. He was already aware of its skills when it came to killing people on the Lord\'s command.

A lot of people often died with something that came out to be commonly called the heart exploding illness. It hit humans, vampires, pureblooded vampires and Lucas knew it was no illness but the work of the ghouls. They were the creatures who not come under the notice of the Hawverts.

Belle woke up at the same time and she found the ghoul standing next to her bedside, "What are you doing here? Did something happen?" she asked the ghoul. She sat up along with Lucas next to her. The ghoul raised its hand for her to take and she stared at the ghoul on what happened. Unlike the girl who was going to die, Belle didn\'t have the ability to see any and everything. Her sight was restricted only to the events that involved death.

Nonetheless, she placed took hold of the ghoul\'s hand, clasping it in her hand and she closed her eyes.

She appeared in a forest that was covered in snow like many other places. Her eyes moved in the deserted land she was in, taking a couple of steps forward to witness the girl Vivian who was sitting on the cold ground spouting blood and in front of her stood a reaper with a scythe in its hand. But it wasn\'t just one reaper. One of the reapers placed the ends of the scythe around her neck and took her soul away with it.

Belle snapped open her eyes and said, "How do we drive away the reaper if it comes for her soul?" the question was directed to Lucas.

"We will need to drive it away."

"What if there is more than one reaper?" asked Belle, staring at the ghoul and then pulling her hand back.

Lucas asked, "How many did you see?"

"Four of them I think. Do more than one come to pick up a soul?" she asked him.

"Only when they are ordered. They must have sensed some discrepancies. Did you find where the spot is?"

"It was in a forest. Must be where she lives," answered Belle. They had been waiting for this day and it was finally here, "Did you check how Charlotte is doing so far?" she asked and Lucas looked at the ghoul.

"She okay," answered the ghoul. This meant everything was going according to the plan.

Belle didn\'t have anything but magic to protect herself. She doubted making use of weapons on a reaper would be effective. When the time moved to noon, there was a change of plan as it appeared that the time had been pushed back for the next day.

"Why do you think the time keeps changing?" she asked him.

"Probably because of the imbalance. The reapers will be confused and maybe it is good as it will keep them busy," answered Lucas to her.

The next day, Belle and Lucas had already arrived in the forest, searching for the spot which she had seen in the future of Vivian\'s death. At one point, she had wondered what would happen if the ghoul would be the one to kill Vivian before time. It would save them the hassle of going through the reapers who would be waiting to take her soul into the land of the dead and cross her through the gates.

When she breathed, the fog appeared out of Belle\'s mouth. The forest was eerily quiet.?The ghoul was nowhere to be seen and Belle assumed that Everest was with Vivian while her heart was getting corrupted. Lucas stood on the other side of the forest, keeping a watch so that they wouldn\'t miss anything. Belle had chosen to wear a pale cream dress so that she would blend into the background of the forest without her presence being too evident when the reapers would arrive here.

The reapers were not here and nor had Vivian appeared yet, that made Belle question if the time would accompany them or if there would be another push forward or back in time.

She waited, standing against the tree when she finally caught sight of the girl with blonde hair entering the forest, coughing with her hand upon her mouth.

She watched the girl make her way past the trees who looked in pain and Belle wished she could help.

"Where is the Duke?" asked Belle to Everest who had left Vivian\'s side to come where they were standing behind the trees.

"He gone."

"What?" Belle frowned.

"Got letter. Left to Bonelake. Coming now," came the broken words of the ghoul and Belle tore her gaze away from the ghoul to look at Vivian who leaned against the tree huffing for air.

Belle\'s eyebrows furrowed to hear Lucas say,

"She has around fifteen hours," he put the watch back to his pocket, "If the Duke has already left Bonelake, he should make it in time," but Lucas knew it wouldn\'t be possible. Not with the current circumstances where all of them were linked and interconnected with each other.

Vivian continued to cough in pain, blood dripping down from the side of her lips while some spilt itself on the white snow, turning it red.

Belle said to the ghoul, "Go stay with her. We will be here," she didn\'t want Vivian to go through the pain alone with no one near her. The ghoul didn\'t have to be told again as it went to the girl\'s side.
