The rose 🌹

Once upon a time in the heart of an immense forest, there was a castle inhabited by a young and handsome prince. Although he had everything a man could desire, he was a villain. The prince was cold, as cold as his heart. And in a few hours he would participate in a party, which would be held in the castle. There were singing and dancing on the evening of the party, louder and louder voices were heard. But at a certain point, an old lady arrived, immersed in her dirty cloak. She opened the door forcefully and as she entered she took a few steps. She entered the hall where the party was held, she slowly approached the prince.

In his eyes there was contempt, she did not accept the idea of ​​having inside her beautiful castle, such a dirty and ugly person. But the prince did not know that shortly thereafter, things would change ... he approached the anxious lady and with a look of disgust asked her: -Who are you? and what are you looking for old! The poor Anxiety woman looked at him and in a faint voice replied: - Oh prince, I am seeking shelter within these walls, I am willing to help me ...

Laughter was heard, coming from the prince and the people, who with raised lips laughed at the old lady. The prince in a fit of rage approached her, as if to attack her. She stopped him, handing him a rose, it was beautiful but cold ... The prince stopped and took the rose, looked at the woman for the last time and let out a great laugh. Everyone laughed, but no one knew that shortly thereafter, everything would turn into a horrible nightmare.

The old lady got up from the ground and took the rose ... At a certain point a very strong light enveloped the woman, and a beautiful woman appeared before the eyes of the prince, paralyzed. There were screams and the earth trembled, the prince thinking that there was danger for his castle, shouted to the woman: - I'm sorry, I didn't want to throw away your rose, please ... But it was too late, some people ran out of the castle others, they holed up in the castle in search of shelter, and others remained to observe. A scream was heard coming from the prince, his human body was no longer there, but there were long legs and sharp claws, a thick fur enveloped the boy ... Canines instead of teeth, vermilion green eyes, and a immense tail ... He was no longer human and would never be. Everything changed, the walls crumbled, the doors closed, the light faded and darkness appeared. The people who remained watching became and turned into cups and watches ...

The sorceress then at a certain point spoke and said: - May this help you change, to see that beauty is not in the external aspect, but which instead is born in the heart. May this be your curse, may the rose you ruthlessly deny me, become the thing you can change and live for again. Remember these words of mine well, you will have eternal life, but damned, you can break this spell of mine ... Only when you find true love, when the last petal has fallen by the hand of love. Otherwise, you will remain in the guise of a beast and die in this castle. She said the woman and as she appeared she so she disappeared, leaving behind her, pain and despair.

The prince in despair holed up in the darkest and loneliest wing of the castle. Placing the delicate rose inside a glass dome, the rose being chained by the magic of the sorceress. He stopped for a second and in a mangled voice he said to himself ...: - Who could ever love me? Who could ever love a beast ...
