"Tale as old as time. Song as old as rhyme." - Beauty and the Beast.

A somewhat modern day retelling of the classic fairytale. 

⇒ 

Upon meeting Lauren, the saying 'beauty is only skin deep' solidifies with Zayn. She may be the most beautiful girl he's ever laid eyes on, but he can see through her. And inside, beyond her stained glass eyes, is someone rotten. But perhaps Zayn's insight is tricked by broken glass shards that distort reality and create an illusion of what Lauren wants outsiders to witness. 

Someone once said before her, "I like you pretty," and it remains so deeply embedded within her that it wounds her body. And unlike beauty, scars aren't only skin deep.

DO YOU KNOW THE BEAST? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ¥• So that was how her first kiss played out. The drive back home had been silent. She'd been in her head. He'd been in his. That night she had taken a good long look at herself in the mirror to remind herself who she was - what she was. "Jeremy Cox will never feel anything like that for you! Get your head out off your butt and deal with it." She'd repeated the mantra over and over till tears stung her eyes and rolled down her cheeks. She did not like what was happening at all. He was her friend. Her only friend. How could she ruin what they had with a stupid one sided crush? If she let herself fall for him... it would be disastrous. For many reasons. But that kiss... that kiss confused her to no end. Where did it come from? Why was he looking at her like that? Why did he kiss her so hard? For those precious seconds she had felt normal. A girl kissing her crush. A normal girl who had legitimate chances of going out with the boy. She pushed thoughts of him out her mind. It could not work. He was The Jeremy Freaking Cox. She was Ugly Sasha Stewart. •¥ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Sasha Stewart is ugly. And that's a plain fact. Her parents know it; her siblings know it; EVERYBODY knows it! She has no friends, no social life and no foreseeable chances of ever getting a guy. She is the Beast. Jeremy Cox is beautiful. Athletic, tall, talented, popular - you name it. He's everything any girl would wish for. A look from him can send girls and boys alike sizzling with need. He is Beauty. What happens in this warped tale of the legendary fantasy when Beauty meets the Beast? Helluva lot. ¥• Warning this book contains triggering situations like bullying, self harm, depression and suicide. Read at your own risk.

#1 Teen Fiction | #1 Young Adult | #1 Romance "We all need someone to drive us mad." - The Wombats. He stared arrogantly down at me, a smirk plastered across his face. I sneered up at him with distaste, wanting to wrap my fingers around his neck and strangle that smirk off of him. He brushed my golden hair from my face, his long, slender fingers sparking electricity in my skin, making my knees wobble together. "Will you ever, forgive me?" he whispered huskily, his eyes intently staring into mine. His face was only mere inches from me. I just needed to reach out a little further to kiss him... "Yeah. Over my dead body." I snapped, before throwing my arms out forcefully, shoving my hands into his chest, pushing him from me. -*-*-*- He, is Carter Williams. I, am Lacey Adams. We were once, inseparable. The 'Golden Couple'. The unbreakable best friends, that everybody envied. Nothing could get between us. A part from being tighter than white on rice, we updated our status from friends to being in a relationship, frequently. We were neighbours, which meant our families were all close and even co-owned houses around our town. This, all is, until the day of my sixteenth birthday. Everything changed. The loving relationship we shared, was severed and torn apart. I couldn't hardly stand to look at him any more, without spitting fire that is. Every day is torture being around him. He was in all my classes at school and the window in my room was even directly aligned with his. So, what happens? My mother's mum gets sick, so dad and her fly out. Just them. Leaving me to stay with Carter and his parents, who are never home. We would be alone. In one house. Under the same roof. If I was insane before, I have no idea what I am now. © 2016 by LaurenJ22.

Everyone wanted him but no body knew him "Because I said so."
