Lost and a little broken Arabella runs from her fate unable to face the person that she's become.  All she wants is some one to talk to, someone to listen even if only as a friend.  After taking a shortcut through the darkening woods a storm hits and Arabella gets lost.  Soon after the storm begins a man finds her.  Duncan is dark and dangerous much like the past that Arabella longs to escape but is Duncan any thing like the man from Arabella's past?  Can Arabella truly trust Duncan?  But it doesn't really matter does it because Arabella knows she doesn't have that much time left before her life is forfeit.  Maybe the real question should be:  Will Duncan be willing to let her go?  And who is the man hidden in the passageways of the castle?  What is the mystery man to her?

The Beast Inside | ✓ by hoponthemoon

"I'm here to take the place of my father," Bella said, her heart pounding with fear. The beast smirked, his face the epitome of evil.

Perhaps she will find out that the Beast is not as bad as it seems to be. But will time run out before Bella can save the Beast and her friends from the curse, causing her to lose them all forever?

Everyone was trapped and could not leave Greyson, and the king was transformed into a monster. The only way to break the curse, is for the king to find true love. But who could truly love a monster.

Somehow, she ends up in the cursed lands of Greyson. She finds she is trapped in a world where time stands still, and magic exist. At first it seems like a paradise. But like they say, when it seems too good to be true, most of the time it is. When there is a misunderstanding, the king accuses Annie of stealing and he kicks her out of the castle. Done with feeling rejected and alone, Annie decides it's time to find a way out. As she tries to find her way out, she starts to learn more about the curse and its people. She also starts to realize maybe the king is not as big of a monster as she thought. Even though most of Greyson is beautiful, something evil is lurking. Hopefully they learn about the threat before it is too late. This is a darker, steamier version of Beauty and the Beast. Strong sexual content, not suitable for anyone under 18.

The Other Side of the Door by enicolec298

"Mademoiselle, you mustn't be too angry with him, he has had a hard time coping, you know," the teapot spoke to me. "I have every right to be angry with him. He could go meet the devil himself, and I would still have every right to be angry. He has locked me in a castle with talking teapots and wardrobes that sing for fun. I have every right," I replied, collapsing on the bed. "I do not mean to contradict you, mademoiselle, but you have had simply your freedom and your father taken away. He has had his whole body taken away and his whole life practically ripped out of his hands. Sure, he may have temper issues and he may be slightly vain, but he is trying. Trying is all anyone asks of each other. Just, try to understand." And with that note, the teapot hopped out of the room. * Beauty and the Beast Story *

Beautiful Beast by lucyanneholland

My name is Kalista. They call me the beast. Kalista has been cursed by a powerful sorceress and is now a prisoner in her own palace. As petals fall from an enchanted rose, her fate and the sorceress's victory draw nearer. But Kalista refuses to be defeated so easily and uses her own magic to push against the bindings. Yet what if it is not enough and the only way the curse might be shattered is through the help of another? When Arawn crosses into the beast's domain, he has one motive: revenge for his brother's death. But as he draws nearer to the beast and is surrounded by invisible servants, magical banquets, and an enchanted forest, he realizes that this beast is much more complex and much more human than he first thought. As their paths intertwine, Kalista must risk opening her heart to another, while Arawn must learn to see past his hate and prejudice. Together, they struggle against spells, wolves, and time itself to break the curse. If they fail, Kalista will fall asleep and will never again wake.

Until one night she is captured by the warriors of the Blue Moon Pack, she was thrown into the dungeon until the next morning when the pack Alpha would chose her destiny. Alpha Blake Andrews, 25. Blake is known to be cruel, merciless, and kill any rogue found on his territory but what will happen when he sees Arabella in the cage and the one word they both heard was "Mate." How will Arabella feel knowing she is mates to a werewolf, none other than the Alpha? What will happen when she is able to meet Blake's men and one is all to familiar her and secrets start to unfold and she can't hide anymore? If you would like the honest truth, before I was not able to drink, Blue Moon is actually my favorite beer... that's where the pack name came from. As I started writing this book and got 20 chapters in I've found many stories and such with the same pack name. So I apologize for that, I didn't mean to "copy" or "steal" the name... I was actually wearing a blue moon (beer) shirt and went with it.
