A dark retelling of Beauty and the Beast   

Annabelle Novacek has never much liked how people view her. She was a beautiful rose to be admired and protected. But she has always felt lanky and awkward; it was her two older sisters that were perfect. When her father comes home with news of a wealthy nobleman desiring her hand, the family are thrilled and she is whisked off to a small town outside of Paris.   

The journey doesn't go as anticipated and their carriage is attacked. Annabelle only just escapes with her life but she is flung out to desperately search for any sign of life. The local nobleman takes her in, but the longer she stays the more she hears about the dark secrets the village holds; a ravage beast that roams the forest and lies in wait for its next victim.  

Beauty fades but true kindness lasts an eternity.

A Loose Retelling of Beauty and the Beast A BEAUTIFUL WITCH. Bookish Myalah, the town beauty as well as its only living witch, has always wanted a way out. Now, especially, about a year after having her heart broken, she is more desperate than ever to leave. Not to mention her father's health, a problem that she cannot fix with her magic. But when an opportunity arises, Myalah is torn with indecision. Can she really set her ideals aside and leave her only home she's ever known for a possibility, and an unlikely one at that? A BEASTLY PRINCE. Luka, 'the Beast' and heir to Valennia's throne, is running out of time. As a young boy, a curse was cast upon him, one that could break his kingdom should it take full effect. He won't allow it to happen. Unfortunately, the one solution Luka was given, the one way to break the curse, his one way out, has a time limit-and he is nearly eighteen. Plus, the solution, to love and be loved, seems unattainable. Can he truly open his heart to someone else? More importantly, can he be enough for someone else's heart? Their worlds collide as their fights begin; Luka fighting against his family's will and himself for hope, for love, and for his kingdom, Myalah fighting the status quo and the jealous nobility for herself and her father.
