Beauty & The Beast: Chapter 18
AroAce Beauty and the Beast is starting to come to a close! Read this chapter for a surprising twist...comment below or on Ao3 and let me know what you think!!
Read the full chapter on Ao3: https://archiveofourown.org/works/10298354/chapters/61261597
“Okay, I have to place my right hand over your heart so the spell is directed at you,” I adjusted the spell book in my left hand and placed my right hand over Adam’s heart.
Adam took a deep breath and closed his eyes, trying to hide the grin twitching on his lips. “I’m ready when you are.”
“Is there anything else you want to do while you’re still human?” I asked. “I don’t want you to regret anything because I really don’t know how to turn you back into a human after this.”
“This is what I want, Belle. I’m not comfortable in this form, I want to be a beast.”
I nodded, holding the book open in my hand and scanning the page. Taking a deep breath, I tried to calm my nerves. Please let this work…please let this work.
I pressed my hand harder against his chest and began to recite the words:
“Miungu ya wanadamu, gods of men miungu ya wanyama, gods of beasts join together as one jiunge pamoja kama moja mtu mbele yangu curse his human form transform from human to beast”
I paused, a warm, tingling sensation throbbing down my arm into my fingertips. Adam’s eyes opened and he looked at me and nodded.
“It’s okay, it felt the same the first time I was cursed,” Adam whispered. “There’s power flowing through your body into mine, but it doesn’t hurt.”
I nodded, licking my lips before continuing. The word began to roll off my tongue like poetry, each word sent a strange, electrifying warmth through my fingertips. Adam’s chest began to glow as my words involuntarily changed into a strange melody I had never heard before, yet somehow couldn’t stop singing. His eyes closed and his chest straightened as a soft glow engulfed his frame.
“Adam!” a high pitched screech echoed through the hall, accompanied by the sound of a thud and heavy, running footsteps. “I’m sorry!” the voice continued, “I can’t stop him!”

Beauty & the Beast: Chapter 17
The moment you’ve been waiting for is here! Chapter 17 is complete, with Chapter 18 following closely behind. Comment below or in Ao3 and let me know what you think!! What do you think will happen next? 
Ao3 link to full chapter: https://archiveofourown.org/works/10298354/chapters/57032482#main
“Beauty…what on earth are you doing?” Gaston tilted his head to the side, his brow furrowing, and a strange glint shimmering in his blue eyes. “You should be in the house, asleep.”
           I gulped, licking my chapped lips. How the hell am I supposed to get out of this?
           “Unless…you’d rather sleep with me,” Gaston’s voice dropped as he sauntered toward me. “You didn’t have come all the way out to the barn to get my attention, Beauty.”
           I opened my mouth to call for someone, anyone, as panic bubbled up within me and I tasted bile in the back of my throat.
           “Now,” Gaston warned, stopping in the entryway and crossing his muscular arms across his wide chest. “Your entire family wants you to be with me, why would they care what we do before…an official wedding?”
           He’s right…no one that can hear me cares what happens as long as it benefits them. Ugh, Adam. I need you!
           “Gaston, please,” I whispered, my hands tightening on the reins as his eyes wandered from my head down my body. “It isn’t proper, and I have no desire-”
           “Shut up!” He bellowed, striding toward me and gripping my thigh. “Why the hell does everything have to be about you, Beauty? What about your family’s desires to be taken care of? What about my desires to protect you? When will you stop your selfish need to control everything?”
           I stared at his hand on my leg, gritting my teeth to hold back the repulsive shudder that trembled within me. “Maybe…maybe I am selfish…”
           Gaston tilted his head and smirked, his hand loosening and moving slowly down my leg. “There’s my good girl. Let me show you how to be better…”
           There’s only one way to get out of this… I took a deep breath and slammed my heels into my horse’s belly and slapped his hindquarters. The horse jumped in surprise, then leapt forward and broke into a bouncy trot. Gaston cursed loudly as he stumbled backwards from the large animal darting toward him.
           “Faster, dammit!” I pleaded, digging my heels further into his glossy coat and leaning forward to twist his mane with the reins in my hands.
           “Beauty! Where the hell are you going, bitch?” Gaston yelled, running out of the barn and chasing me down the worn path. His sudden movements spooked my horse, prompting him from a fast canter into a full run.
           “I will find you! Don’t think you can get away from me! I always get what I want!” he shrieked, his voice growing faint as I fled from the house.
