Prologue

Once upon a time, in a faraway land, a young prince lived in a shining castle. Although he had everything his heart desired, the prince was spoiled, selfish, and unkind. But then, one winter's night, an old beggar woman came to the castle and offered him a single rose in return for shelter from the bitter cold. Repulsed by her haggard appearance, the prince sneered at the gift and turned the old woman away, but she warned him not to be deceived by appearances, for beauty is found within. And when he dismissed her again, the old woman's ugliness melted away to reveal a beautiful enchantress. The prince tried to apologize, but it was too late, for she had seen that there was no love in his heart, and as punishment, she transformed him into a hideous beast, and placed a powerful spell on the castle, and all who lived there. Ashamed of his monstrous form, the beast concealed himself inside his castle, with a magic mirror as his only window to the outside world. The rose she had offered was truly an enchanted rose, which would bloom until his twenty-first year. If he could learn to love another, and earn her love in return by the time the last petal fell, then the spell would be broken. If not, he would be doomed to remain a beast for all time. As the years passed, he fell into deep state of despair. But his brother was always there to give him hope.

One dark and stormy night, an old man came to the gloomy and sinister castle in search of shelter after losing his way to a fair. The Beast's brother, Grant, was intrigue by the man. However, the Beast was not, and thus threw the old man in the castle dungeon to rot. But on that same night, the old man's daughter and her close friend came to the castle, looking for the old man.

Soon after finding out that her father was being imprisoned by the Beast, the daughter herself was caught by him, as well. She offered her freedom to save her father, and while this was going on, her friend was finding herself face-to-face with the Beast's brother. She tried to make a deal with Grant, to help match her friend and the Beast together.

The daughter's plan to free her father worked. But after a while, the two began to miss each other terribly. Wanting to make her happy, the beast let her use his magic mirror. When the mirror showed her father, laying in the forest floor, coughing, sick, and alone, the beast gave her the mirror and allowed her to go to him. Upon hearing of this, his brother realized that he also had to let go of someone precious: the girl's friend.

Deciding to follow her heart despite of the fear of rejection, Elise stayed behind for Grant's sake. After confessing their love, the two held each other through out the night until a mob of men from the village came to storm the castle. Bell came back to the castle to try and stop the ring leader of the mob. After seeing the Beast being stab, Grant grabbed the man and threw him off the side of the castle.

When Belle claimed her love for the Beast, the spell was broken and both princes claimed kisses from their loves. After a while the former beast prince married Belle. On Christmas night, soon after, Grant proposed to his love and she agreed.
