Now Live: The Mirror by Fizza Younis

Blurb

Snow White has lived all her life hoping that someday she will find a way out of her evil stepmother’s clutches. Now it seems her dream of freedom is within her reach. But will she just extend her hand and take what’s hers? Or does fate intervene again, shattering all her hopes?
They call her the Evil Queen, but it’s not her fault that the mirror demands to be fed. She has tried her best to keep Snow safe. Unfortunately, she might not be able to help her wayward stepdaughter anymore. Things are rarely the way they seem. And Snow might have to learn this lesson the hard way.

A perfect and precise retelling.

The ending is accurate.

 

***

 

“If I am mistress here,” Beauty asked without looking at him, “why am I mistress of a library of books I cannot read?”

“Why, Beauty,” he said lightly, tilting her chin so that she had nowhere to look but at him, “you are mistress of the house, and I am master of everything in it.” He dropped her chin and left his paw in her lap. It lay there like a dead thing. “Tell me,” he said, “do not you think me very ugly?”

Beauty said nothing.

“Come, you are mistress of your own voice; speak,” said the Beast.

Beauty opened her mouth.

“But remember I am master of all the words spoken in this house,” he said, taking her hands and pressing them tightly. “Remember that.”

“I think nothing of the kind,” she said.

“You may go to bed,” he told her, smiling. “I will eat your dinner for you.”
