Saved By The Rose

Beauty And The Beast Retelling!

Claudio Rossetti

As the Underboss, I’m ruthless.
My world is dark.
Full of blood and pain.
I’m tired and cynical.
A beautiful girl runs into my life.
She makes demands.
The girl has pure bright light.
She lights my soul.
She’s an enchantress.
A Soldier wants her.
Should I protect her?
I need to keep her.
But I’m a monster.
I can’t taint her.
But I’m a selfish bastard.
I’m keeping her.

Rubi Rose Rossette

The man is a monster.
He has my Dad.
I need to rescue him.
But the monster’s eyes call me.
He’s more than what it appears.
I feel a connection with his soul.
The soldier wants me.
I don’t believe the soldier.
I rather risk it with the monster.
I know that he wouldn’t hurt me.
But will he hurt my Dad?
