PREVIOUSLY CALLED "BEAUTY'S MELODY"

"Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that." ~Martin Luther King Jr. 

~~~~~
In the beginning, there was a boy. A girl. And a beast. 

For years, legends rumor that there is a beast roaming in the Péige Forest near a northern village in the kingdom. It is merciless, ruthless, and undeniably dangerous to all those who come near. Hundreds of men have attempted to kill it only to never be heard of again. 

It has been a year since Mira's older brother has been gone after venturing off to kill the beast. And like all the others, everyone suspects he is dead and the pain comes right after when they find out that it is true. Determined to take revenge, her youngest sister goes off on her own into the Péige Forest to avenge her brother. Mira now has no choice but to save her siblings in a hunt that could very well end her life. 

But when she gets separated from her family for good, nothing seems certain anymore. Not even the strange, kind man, who never reveals his identity, she met along the way. He promises to help her find her siblings only with the condition that she would not come close to him. 

That one decision would change life forever, plunging her in a world of light and dark, hatred and love.

A mangled curse. An old feud. A horrible monster. Ever since the Beast overthrew the King three years ago, the country of Fabel has been on the edge of chaos and Annalise's nameless village is one of many places hanging onto order by a fraying thread. With only a thin stretch of danger infested forest away from the old castle, it's prime hunting ground for the Beast. As if fending off regular attacks weren't enough, denying the advances of a monster hunter turns out to be harder than it ought to be, especially since Anna already has an engagement ring on her finger. But it only takes one broken bargain to shatter everything Annalise knows. To save her father from a fatal mistake, Anna agrees to take his place as the Beast's prisoner. But she hasn't given up on going home so she strikes a deal of her own. She can leave the castle, but only if she breaks the curse that binds the Beast - a curse he can't tell her how to break. But as Anna struggles to figure out how to release the Beast from his enchantment before time runs out, she catches the attention of the Enchantress who first cast it, an Enchantress with a long memory and unfinished business. And she doesn't plan on fighting fair. (Formerly Red as Roses)

Alera lost her mother early in life and was raised by a strict king for a father and the many nursemaids who crossed themselves before touching her. It wasn't until she was of marrying age that she learned why the people feared her. She was canny... like her forest mother. Canny and feared to be fae. The only person besides her father who didn't seem to fear her was the handsome stable boy. He knew what she was and didn't cross himself before letting his hands touch hers longer than needed for helping her to her mount. And on her 18th birthday, neither could deny the bond that dragged them together. But her father had her sold off to make an advantageous match with the neighboring king's sullen and cruel son. Even a kingdom over, the whispers of the canny princess the people feared as fae reached royal ears. But they thought to use her to their advantage...to put fear in their own people's hearts and make them bend the knee. Now with the kingdom at war with the prince she would have married, Alera must save the people who feared her from an unspeakable fate brought to their door by the sullen prince wielding a dark unknown power. -------------------- Cover by Tina Glasneck ©2022 M.Dalto Published to Wattpad 06.01.2022 Completed 03/30/2023
