The Swan's Prince

<p><strong>I need to love him. If I don't let I'll let down my father and kingdom and I'll never be human again.</strong></p><p> </p><p>After two years apart it seems Prince James has changed for the better. I think I might be okay with our arranged marriage now after a lifetime of struggling to care for him. He protects me from a beast he takes my nightmares away and he makes my body come alive.</p><p> </p><p>Then the beast comes back and takes me away yet underneath lies a man I shouldn't feel sympathy for but I do.</p><p> </p><p><strong>But I can't let my kidnapper woo me and I can't even consider a relationship with the best friend who jokes his kiss could break the curse I've been placed under.</strong></p><p> </p><p>I have to fall in love with James or everything falls apart. Only then can I even consider looking at anyone else in a different light.</p><p> </p><p>But when all of this is over who knows what my heart will want? Matteo's true self is far more pleasing than I thought it would be and Stefan makes me laugh more than anyone else.</p><p> </p><p><strong>When we finally break free who knows what the future holds?</strong></p>
