Chapter 1

Yes, I was a Beast. There was no point of living. No one would accept me. Everyone hated me when I was normal. Being a bald-headed guy with a bunch of markings and gruesome scars weren't going to make everyone love me all of a sudden. This is me now. I was cursed.

I am the richest kid in the school. I am also a transfer student from London. I thought all schools were rubbish in America. I was corrected. That isn't often though, that I got corrected. I was popular though in school. I got the attention of every girl the moment I look at them. I have the perfect life. No one could ever match the superiority that I had. No could. And no one ever would find out I had a little sister. She was murdered when we released the Vespers. I kind of blamed Amy Cahill for not saving her on time. I left her. I was over her too. I didn't care about whom she was with anymore, and I definitely don't care about what happens to her anymore either. She's gone from my life. Not to mention her purpose of being a Madrigal. Our mission is done, no more Vespers, no more being a Madrigal for me.

"Yo, you have to see, that bullshit new girl, Ian?" Hamilton asked me. My loyal friend, Hamilton. He used to be popular, until I showed up. Hah. Whatever. Not that I care about him either. Not that I care about anyone from. The Cahills especially. He only shared my opinion because his sister was murdered too. The battle didn't end up well, even though we won.

"No. Do you have any idea about what class I am in? I do not care anything about the riffraff. In other words, her." I answered back.

"I heard that Sloane Hagen asked you out. She is like the hottest girl in the school!" He said all excited. I could hear a little bit of jealously. Too bad Hamilton couldn't keep a hold on her. She's mine now.

"Why would I settle for anything but the best?" I recited from this story I read. I made it my own mantra of course. That's when Sloane came around.

"Hey!" Sloane called out.

"Hello, love." I replied back, giving her some of my charm in the words I chose. She giggled back.

Worked.

"Just letting you know. I hate white on the look of the white dress I'm wearing to the dance, so don't even think about getting me some cheap ass rose. Get like… a purple orchid." Sloane asked, maybe for the hundredth time. God, she was getting more annoying by the minute. I was honestly thinking about possibly ditching her. Just then the bell rang. English class.

As I walked into the class. Every eye was staring at me. The usual, girls mooning over me, and guys that are jealous of me and my looks. I noticed this new girl in my class. She must be the new girl. Hamilton is right, she does look like bullshit. She can't even dress properly. Green hair, black clothes and boots. The short-cut though. Not a good look on her. The teacher was giving out paper slips. Must be for the spring dance royalty. I opened up the slip. My name was first. Obviously, I'm me. I'm the good looking one in the school. Just then I heard this sound. I turned around.

"What is this?" The new girl asked.

"The slip for the spring dance royalty. You're supposed to vote…"The teacher left off, because apparently he didn't know her name.

"Kendra. Kendra Hilferty." Kendra introduced.

"Well then, Kendra… use the slip and vote." Teacher said.

"Why do we choose royalty though? And on what basis do we even choose royalty?" Kendra asked.

"Well…ah…uh…" The teacher stumbled. I spoke up.

"We choose royalty because; it's our way of choosing who looks best, and we do that my judging the looks. Clearly there is a reason you didn't get on the paper. "I said, waving my slip in front of her face.

"Such a shame though, that you would know and the teacher here, doesn't. Not to mention that an elite school such as this one would be encouraging any idea of judging people because of their appearance, and not because of the way they take actions. Looks really matter to you, don't they Ian Kabra?" I heard Kendra ask.

"Well they are important to everyone, not you though, clearly." I added at the end. I made sure that it struck her personally, and not you as in the general ugly percentage. She just gave a creepy smile. Suddenly, I didn't feel so good. She just sat down. The teacher couldn't say anything that just unfolded in front of him.

My other best friend, Jonah came up to me. He was lucky. Phoenix didn't die, and merely escaped before finding us and telling us where the hostages were. Jonah still knew me though, which is why he automatically thought we were friends.

"Great job, dawg, you showed her a bit of what happens when you mess with a Kabra." As he gave me his hand waiting for it to be… slapped. Not going to do that though.

"Thanks. Thanks to me though, she wouldn't get anywhere in this school popular wise." I said.

"What are you thinking of Ian?" Jonah asked. I just stared at him with my eyes in a mischievous matter.

I saw Kendra when I was ditching school, two nights before the dance. My plan was going to be put in action.

"Hey, Kendra." I called out.

"Why hello, Ian." Kendra replied back. I wondered if that was sarcasm though.

"No time for thinking Ian. Got to get this going." I thought to myself.

"I need to talk to you." I called out again.

"How come?" She asked.

"Well I was thinking about what you said during class, and I think that you were right." Ian said.

"Seriously?" Kendra asked. I use that word too much.

"Yeah, and you know what, I want you to come to the dance. With me. "I said, putting on that charm speak I reserved for Sloane.

"Really?" Kendra questioned.

"Yeah, I'll buy you a ticket and you could meet me there." I declared. I was kind of demanding her then.

"Sure. I'll play along with this game you're playing." And with that she walked away. Part One of my plans; success. Now I just need to let Sloane know. She'll play a vital role in this.

"Where in the world did you get this?!" I asked the maid, which I didn't even bother to learn the name of.

"From the florist." She replied back.

"No I mean, why would you get this flower? I said to get me an orchid. God, now Sloane is going to blab about how bitchy and how ugly this corsage is going to look on her dress." I yelled.

"This is the perfect one though, this flower means purity, and loyal. I would look good." The maid said.

"But she is wearing a white dress, white and white do not work!" I yelled, before I realized she was just a maid, she would have no idea about fashion sense. I didn't live with anyone but my dad. He accepted back into the family, but he talked to me less. I wondered for a tiny second if Natalie would accept what I did.

I took the flower anyway.

I got to the limo, and waited for a little while, until we got to Sloane's house.

The moment she got in, she started making out with me. She didn't even ask about the corsage. Weird, but agreed with it. I made out with her. Her lips on mine, she was sprawled all over me, but it was a bliss moment compared to the moment she saw the corsage.

"Why would you get this? This does not go with my dress. They clash." Sloane yelled at me.

"I got this one, because it meant purity, and 'I'm worthy of you'." I said.

"Couldn't you have got another one though? Why would you do such a thing? Ugh!" And with that she left me, like a loner. I threw the flower on the ground before I realized my plan. I turned to the entrance, and there she was.

I found Sloane, and I pointed to the entrance. She already knew the plan and she still went along with it.

"I love you, Ian Kabra." And she gave me a passionate kiss. I kissed her back though. I looked to the opening, where I saw Kendra, acting like I didn't see her before.

"Hello Kendra. Meet my date, Sloane." I introduced to Kendra. Her face wasn't hurt, she wasn't angry or embarrassed. She just looked at me with those green eyes,

"What are you staring at, huh?" I asked her.

"You shouldn't have done that." Kendra finally said, after inhaling a deep breath of air.

"Why?"

"You shouldn't have made my choice so easy, Ian." And with that, Kendra stalked out of the room with the flowing cape behind her. I didn't take much notice of that though. I should have though.

Here is my second story. I am working on another story but winter break is close so I might be able to update on both of the stories. This story is basically like the story BEASTLY but, with a few changes. Some of the characters aren't going to be in the story, and I am not going to do a copy of the story either. There is only one thing to ask of… please, please, please Review. It would make me super happy. Thanks.

Till the next chapter
