I don't own Beauty and the Beast, it belongs to Disney.

If anyone knows what the Beast's human name is, that'd be super.

"True love, a much-needed property in fairy tales such as our story. On his twenty-first year, a young prince, cursed to learn to love, realized he loved a girl, who loved him in return. The spell was broken, and there was much rejoicing. The day after said spell was broken, the girl was married to the prince, and there was even more rejoicing.

Months later, the young woman's stomach began to swell, and the dressmaker was constantly busy making dresses to keep up with the woman's pregnancy. The prince, now a king, could not be happier, he had a marriage built on love, a gorgeous woman by his side, and an heir in the making. As most arrogant kings are prone to do, he forgot the possibility of a girl being his first born, and only focused on his future son's well-being.

Of course, seeing as arrogance gets one to the place one does not wish to be, the queen gave birth on the tenth day of the eighth month to a baby girl, equal in beauty only to her mother. The king was enraged, and refused to look at his child, for she was not a suitable heir. The staff of the castle consoled the young queen, saying that the king would accept his daughter and love her as he loved his queen. The king, however, did not look at his daughter or even speak of her for a month.

On the eleventh day of the ninth month, the old woman who placed the first curse on the king came again, saying he did not learn to love, and put him and all who lived in his castle under the same spell that had been placed upon it eleven years before.

But, the woman, seeing the pure heart of the queen and the child she protected in her arms, spared the child and queen from the spell, and proclaimed that when the child's sixteenth year, if her father loves her as much as his queen, and is loved in return, the spell would be broken once again. Until then, the king was once again turned into a horrible beast and the staff of the castle turned into animated household items.

The king once again locked himself in his study, and still refused to see his daughter for two months more.

The queen fretted over her husband's situation, and finally forced her husband to attempt to look at his daughter and say that he did not love her half as much as he did his queen. The king agreed, and looked at his three-month-old daughter for the first time. He was shocked with her resemblance of her mother, and realized that he could not neglect his only child any longer, and the king came to love his daughter as much as his wife.

Afraid of having his daughter think him abnormal, the king refused for the girl to leave the castle until her tenth year, hoping she would think of her family as "normal" and accept him, her father, and love him as well as her normal mother.

Our story begins on the third day of the fourth month of the princesses fifteenth year."

"Madmoiselle!" Echoed through the halls of the great palace, "Need I remind you? Your lessons start at half till nine, it is currently fifteen after eleven! Your are never going to learn anything at this rate!"

A young brunette giggled as she ran and hid behind a door as Cogsworth ran past, thinking he was hot on her heels, "Your father will hear of this, young lady!"

As the voice got more and more echo-y and she could no longer hear the hobbling of the bossy clock, Princess Danielle stepped out of the room and walked calmly to the library as if she was not being hunted down by her private tutor.

Upon entering the large book-filled room, she was relieved to see that neither her mother nor father were present. Smiling, she climbed the stairs to the second 'floor' of the library and found one of her favorite books. Walking over to one of the green couches, she sat down and brought her knees to her chest, the motion making the golden details on the couch move with her. Opening the first page, she immediately got sucked into the book, and, therefore, did not here Cogsworth coming into the library.

Yeah, that's all I got. If you like it, let me know so I will know wether or not to continue this story.
