B&HB: Try and escape
From Create Your Own Story
Frightened, you come to a startling realization that you father might have tricked you into coming here. Whatever the case, you have to escape, and run out the dinning room door. Only to find yourself in a bed room. Frozen, you were sure the dinning room lead to a hallway. The room itself is quite extravagant. Mostly white, with a work desk, wardrobe, and the largest bed you've ever seen. The bed is the most remarkable you've ever seen. With curtains on the sides, and the headboard is like nothing you've ever seen. Roughly a dozen white hands stick out from the headboard, as though reaching for something. It's unsettling as it is beautiful.
But you're thrown from your observations, as a pair of rough hands grasp your shoulders. You jump in surprise, but when you turn to look at those hands, they are not the hands of a man. But those of a beast. Each fur covered finger ends in a sharp black claw, like those of a bird of prey. Terrified, you quickly turn around, to see the man behind you. Only he's not a man at all, but a monster.
He stands like a man, but has the face of a lion, the horns of an elk, the tail of a wolf, the legs of a horse, and arms of a bear. Covered with golden brown fur, what would be a confusing mishmash of different beasts thrown randomly together, looks right on him. That he wears expensive and extravagant clothes only adds to his unique appeal. But this doesn't leave you any less terrified, and you leap away from him, screaming.
He only laughs, "Yes, your father reacted the exact same way when he saw me."
Through your trembling teeth, you manage to ask, "W-What... are you?"
He looks down at his hand, and says, "I am as you see. A beast. One who has been alone for as long as I can remember."
You don't know why, but this makes your heart race with anxiety, and you cautiously ask, "S-so... the reason you... brought me here is..."
"All beasts need a mate, my dear sweet Belle."
