Fantasy- fairy tale

The father went to claim one of his ships, hoping to get the riches from it. Beauty asked for a rose when he returned. On the way back he ran into a snow storm and went towards the light of the castle seeking shelter. He walked in and helped himself to dinner and a good night's sleep. The Beast appeared when he picked a rose for Beauty. For taking a rose, the Beast said he had to give him one of his own daughters or he would kill the man. Beauty refused to stay home and went to live with the Beast. There was a feast when she got there and the Beast asked if she would marry him. She said no, but was surprised she wasn’t afraid of him. Beauty found the palace was filled with things she loved. Every evening the Beast asked Beauty to marry him. The Beast let Beauty go home for a week but she must return to the palace. She stayed for a long time and then had a dream and returned to the palace. She thought he had died because she didn’t return. She told him she loved him and would marry him, and he turned into a prince. She had freed him because she loved him despite his ugliness. She saw his heart. They lived happily ever after.
