The eyes will bewitch you.
The lips will tempt you.
The beauty will deceive you.
The Beast is cunning and sharp witted, opinionated. He's cruel at times and speaks in clever riddles that twist the minds of those he speaks to. He was an absolute mystery to nearly everyone until a man made a foolish bargain out of fear and desperation. It cost him the thing he loved most. Unfortunately, he wasn't aware of what it was until all the borrowed time was spent and it was taken from him.

Winter's Rose ~A Beauty and the Beast Retelling~
'"Oh, William, there will be no heir. The throne will sit empty for years. Everything your father created will be gone. And you will not be able to stop it." She walked towards him, like the serpent in the garden. She touched her finger to his forehead, and leaned into close, "You will become the thing you fear the most; a monster who lurks in the night; a soul lost from its path. You will be blinded by your own fear. As time goes on--and it will go on--you will be trapped by your fear until it consumes you. You will forever be a monster, and you won't be able to stop it." "No," he clamored, "I'll overcome it, I'll fight it every day until I die." "Oh, my dear, you will not die. You will be immune to death--a monster today, a monster tomorrow, and a monster forever. A soul lost from its path can only be led back to the light, it cannot find its own path."' (The Two Curses) ~~ How can a person lead you back to the light when they are as blind as you?Complete
