The beast smiled at her, "I am glad that you like them." he said as he looked at her.

She nodded, continuing to walk around and look at the paintings, they really were quite beautiful

The beast smiled at her, "I could paint you a picutre if you like."

She looked back at him, "You already gave me that painting of myself, I couldn't possibly bother you with another one."

The beast smiled, "I would actually like to, it would give me something to do." he said as he looked at her

She nodded, "Aright." She was a little curious and wanted to watch him paint

The beast smiled, "what would you like for me to paint?" he asked

"Um... A landscape?" She said slowly

The beast smiled and nodded, "yes I can do that for you." he said as he looked at her

She nodded and gave a broad smile, "Thank you." Alexi was rather enjoying herself here, he was much nicer than she would have thought him to be

The beast smiled at her, "would you like to see the other parts of the castle?" he asked.

She nodded, "Yes, maybe the gardens? If that is alright."

The beast nodded, "okay, right this way." he said and started to lead the way.

She followed closely behind, deciding to take this time to look at all his features, he wore a purple cape and pants to match, he was covered in fur and there were two horns atop his head, then there were the fangs and the claws... She smiled lightly when she saw that he had a tail..... Why was she not panicking and trying to get away? Because this creature, or man rather, had shown her some kindness, and didn't kindness deserve kindness?

The beast smiled once they got to his guarden and looked at her as he opened his doors. "here is my guarden." and inside there where flowers of all kind, some thought to be extinct, fruit and vegitables grew everywhere and it was like his own personal jungle. "I hope you like it."

Alexi gasped when she saw it, "Oh my God." She smiled as she stepped inside, it truly was a beautiful sight to behold. All the flowers and natural food, she would bent to smell one every now and then, "It's so beautiful." The sun seemed to have hit her a certain way, making her hair seem to almost shine and her skin glow

The beast smiled when he heard her and looked at her, "I am glad that you like it." he said and then couldn't say anything else. She looked beautiful with how the sun was hitting her and he wondered how lucky he was to see someone so beautiful. "this is the only way I am able to survive this long." he said.

She nodded, "Yes... There is so much food here." She walked over to an apple tree and looked back at him, "May I take one?"

The beast smiled and nodded, "yes go ahead, your welcome to eat what you like." he said as he smiled at her.

She reached up and plucked an apple from off the tree, she polished it with her shirt before taking a bite, "Mm... That's a really good apple."

The beast smiled at her, "I am glad that you like them, I make sure that they stay perfect." he said as he smiled at her.

She nodded, "Well you do a very good job." She gave him a kind and beautiful smile, "Why not show me more?"

The beast smiled, "what else would you like to see?" he asked.

"You said you had a ballroom?"

The beast nodded and smiled, "yes we do, would you like to see it?" he asked.
