Sebastian deLovely, younger son of a minor noble house, becomes trapped in an enchanted castle with an angry, distrustful Beast. After a bad start Sebastian is determined to make the best of it; however, Beast has nothing but contempt for the interloper in his domain. They eventually reach an understanding and Beast – against his better judgment - comes to consider Sebastian a friend. Meanwhile, Sebastian is doing his best not to let his feelings of friendship towards Beast become something more. Dangerous secrets are still playing out in the castle, however, and Beast’s dark history may be more than either Sebastian or Beast can ultimately handle.
