"He was a beast by all standards, a horrific sight to behold."
The town of Vell knows fully well the monster that lurks within the halls of Rose Castle. They envy, fear, and even desire the infamous man. However, unbelievable secrets haunt the Dark Forest that surrounds his castle. Secrets that he will keep uncovered at all costs.
What happens when a determined older man comes forward, searching for the answers to questions that had plagued him endlessly about the Beast? What happens when along with the man comes his sweet wife, and stunning, scholarly daughter?
It isn't whether she can come to love a beast, but rather if he can come to love her.

His Beauty & Her Beast
Legend says a beast like no other was sent from the depths of the underworld to conquer and destroy all life on earth... stories of the evil and monstrous creatures roamed throughout the lands. Tales were told to children about a dark forest that must never be ventured for the creatures within will devour whatever is in its sights ruthlessly. He was a beast but he was not cursed as one he was created as one. He could transform into a vicious monster; he had large wings that allowed him to sore through the sky along with incredible strength and speed that strikes fear and death into anyone before him. He stood nearly 7 feet tall with large rippling muscles making him appear larger and even more frightening in his beast form. He could transform from a beast to a human. He was feared. He had power. .... She was soft and gentle. She walked with grace and elegance. Her kindness would melt the heart of any evil and her beauty was like no other. She was the most gorgeous woman he had ever seen. And the beast wanted her. "P-please... don't hurt them" I shakingly stood in front of the petrified young children. "You do not worry about yourself?" He spoke, and his deep and dark voice sent shivers down my body. "Please they are just children they don't mean no harm" his eyes held adoration and something else.

Rell and The Rose
A Beast stalks the night... but Beauty hunts him. A reimagining of the story you thought you knew. Rell grew up hearing stories of the Human Realm, a fantastic world with light at the flick of a finger, metal boxes that fly through the sky; a fantastic, faraway fairytale that she knows is too good to be true. Because Rell lives in the Dark Realm: a world full of magical creatures and a low-hanging sky, all protected by The Blood Rose. Until the day the Blood Rose is stolen away and taken to the Human Realm. Without it, the two realms will meet with disastrous consequences, the human sun bleaching all the magic from the Dark Realm. And so Rell leaves everything she knows to bring it back. There's only one problem: the Human Realm- especially high school- is nothing like the stories. There's some sort of code with words like "twerking" and "Instagram" she can't understand, and then there's Bastien, the boy who hates Rell for reasons she can't explain. But when Rell realizes Bastien is keeping just as many secrets as she is, the two become an unlikely team in the search for the Blood Rose. Time is ticking, and more than just The Dark Realm is at stake. Whoever stole the rose is now cursed to turn into a Beast every full moon, and is hidden among them. Students are going missing, and dark creatures are slipping into the Human Realm. Rell needs to find the Blood Rose, slay the Beast, survive high school, and sort out these new, confusing feelings for Bastien--all before the night of the full moon. To fail could mean the end of The Dark Realm and every magical creature within, but to succeed means she'll lose the boy she's falling for, and a Realm more beautiful than she ever imagined. A modern-day reimaging of Beauty and the Beast.Complete
