Briar Rose was quite a regular girl. She lived in the forest with her three aunts and couldn't ask for a better life. The woods were her playground and the animals were her friends. Life was good.
Until her 16th birthday, that is. She had dreamed of being a princess, but it was a child's fantasy. And the castle is much colder than her cottage.

La Beau et la Bête ᯽ M! Reader
F/N yearns for a life far beyond the narrow confines of the provincial town of Villeneuve. In a place where tradition reigns supreme and conformity is quietly expected, he is a figure apart-a young man whose unconventional perspective clashes with the rigid definitions of masculinity upheld by those around him. Fiercely independent and endlessly curious, F/N finds solace in books, immersing himself in tales of far-off lands, daring adventures, and romances that defy the ordinary. But the stories he treasures only deepen his hunger for more. He dreams of stepping beyond Villeneuve's dusty streets, of living a life as vibrant and boundless as the worlds he reads about. His quiet routine is shattered when his beloved father, the only person who truly understands his dreams, is taken captive by a fearsome Beast and held within the confines of an enchanted castle. Refusing to let his father suffer, F/N makes a fateful decision: he offers himself in his father's place, trading his freedom for the promise of his father's safety. Though he outwardly accepts his fate, his mind races with plans of escape, determined that this castle-no matter how frightful-will not be the end of his story. Yet, as the days turn to weeks, the mysteries of the castle and the Beast who inhabits it begin to unravel before him. There is more to this strange, enchanted place than meets the eye, and the Beast himself proves to be far more complex than F/N ever imagined. Slowly, the boundaries between captor and captive blur, and F/N finds himself questioning the very stories he once clung to for meaning. Could the adventure he craves-and perhaps something even deeper-lie not beyond the castle walls, but within them?Complete
