\"\"Where are you from?<\/strong>
\nA land far, far away. No, seriously, even if I told you, you wouldn\u2019t know the place. So\u2026<\/p>\n

What is your main purpose in life?<\/strong>
\nTo prove my father wrong. He said I would never have anything, never be anything. He said I was a monster who didn\u2019t deserve to be loved. I want to show him that I deserve to have it all, I will have it all. No matter what.<\/p>\n

Who is your greatest enemy and why?<\/strong>
\nThe Beast. Because there\u2019s no reason a hideous creature like him should be able to marry a gentle and beautiful woman like Belle. She deserves someone better. I\u2019m better. Period.<\/p>\n

Do you think you can ever reconcile with this enemy?<\/strong>
\nMaybe\u2026. In hell.<\/p>\n

Do you have a love interest?<\/strong>
\nI wouldn\u2019t call it an interest. It\u2019s more of an irritation. Originally, I had someone I wanted to claim as my wife. She\u2019s beautiful. I\u2019m handsome. We fit. I thought it would be great to have a marriage of convenience.<\/p>\n

Then I met this wild haired beauty who is nothing like anyone I\u2019ve ever met. She\u2019s become a bit of a distraction and I can\u2019t seem to stop thinking about her. She\u2019s turning my world upside down. I don\u2019t like that. I don\u2019t like it at all.<\/p>\n

What is your weapon of choice?<\/strong>
\nMy sword.<\/p>\n

What makes you happy?<\/strong>
\nHaving people call me the most handsome man in the world. I love being admired.<\/p>\n

What makes you angry?<\/strong>
\nHaving people doubt me and my abilities.<\/p>\n

If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?<\/strong>
\nNothing. I\u2019m perfect.<\/p>\n

What do you think is your greatest strength?<\/strong>
\nThe fact that I don\u2019t believe in love.<\/p>\n

What do you think is your greatest weakness?<\/strong>
\nThe fact that I\u2019ve found someone who makes me want to believe in love. And it isn\u2019t Belle. This new person is nothing like Belle. She\u2019s not like anyone I\u2019ve ever met before. These feelings I have for her make me\u2026 uncomfortable.<\/p>\n

What do you think is your enemy’s greatest strength?<\/strong>
\nBelieving in love.<\/p>\n

What do you think is your enemy’s greatest weakness?<\/strong>
\nBelieving in love.<\/p>\n

Name one person you admire.<\/strong>
\nMyself.<\/p>\n

Name one person you trust.<\/strong>
\nMy trusty sidekick, Le Fou. He knows the real me. He knows my past. And he doesn\u2019t judge me. That\u2019s what you call a true friend.<\/p>\n

~About the book. ~<\/strong><\/p>\n

For him, love isn\u2019t an option.<\/p>\n

Years ago, Gaston Dufort made a deal with a wizard. In exchange for good looks and a charming personality, he gave up the ability to fall in love. To him, love isn\u2019t important. Love makes you weak. There\u2019s no room for love in his life. That\u2019s why he didn\u2019t hesitate to give it up in order to gain something more important. Now that he\u2019s the most handsome man in town, he wants the most beautiful woman by his side, Belle. When she chooses a beast over him, Gaston becomes enraged.<\/p>\n

No matter how hard he tries, he\u2019s unable to defeat the beast who stole Belle from him. However, a second chance comes to him in the form of a witch by the name of Celeste Dubois. Celeste says a spell that rewinds time and grants him another chance to claim the female he wants and defeat the beast. Unfortunately, his plans go awry when he runs into a devious witch by the name of Addasyn Grimm.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

With her, comes chaos.<\/p>\n

Addasyn Grimm is nothing like his Belle. For starters, she wants him dead. Plus, she\u2019s a wild beauty who doesn\u2019t follow the rules of society. Worse, she sees past his fa\u00e7ade. She can see the real him. The side of him he hates and tries to hide from everyone. Addasyn sees it and she\u2019s not put off by it. She prefers it over the charming, handsome side everyone else sees. But, there\u2019s nothing gentle about Addasyn. She\u2019s not a damsel in distress who needs him to save and protect her. Yet, Gaston finds himself wanting to do all those things for her, while all she wants to do is right the timeline and end his existence. Though he tries to fight it, he can\u2019t help falling in love with the witch who hates him.<\/p>\n

He only has one chance to get things right. Only one chance to live the life he\u2019s always wanted. Will he pursue Belle and get his revenge against the Beast? Or will he break his deal with the wizard and become a beast to be with Addasyn?<\/p>\n
