Ugly and Beautiful

Prince Edward of England lives in a palace with his parents, the king and the queen. Beautiful girls love him and they are always after him, he loves the attention he gets from girls and he already knows that he will marry a very beautiful princess; he just hasn’t met her yet. The king and the queen have arranged his marriage since he was small, but he knows nothing of it. One day the king and queen tell the prince that he will marry Princess Lucy from France, the prince is furious about what his parents told him but because he is a prince he will have to accept for both countries to get along. The prince travels to France to see Princess Lucy, he hopes with all his heart that she is beautiful just like the girl in his dreams.
When he goes to princess Lucy’s palace he is completely disappointed to see that his future wife was the ugliest person he had ever seen. He cant even make himself say hello to the princess because he is too shocked. His father urges him to greet the princess and respect her as looks are not the most important thing in a person. The prince does as he is told and he marries Lucy, however the next day he is stunned to see a beautiful girl sleeping next to him. The girl wakes up and tells Edward that she is Princess Lucy and that many years ago she had put in prison the son of a witch and the witch had cursed her, that she will be very ugly for the rest of her life, unless she marries a prince, then she would turn beautiful again. Lucy said that she thought that she would never marry a prince because no one would love her because she was ugly, but when her parents found out that the queen and king of England had a son they would arrange their marriage because that would interest the king and queen of England, for their countries to get along. The prince was shocked with Lucy’s story and promised her that he would never let anyone harm her in anyway. The Prince finally married the girl of his dreams and the princess was beautiful again and they both lived happily ever after.
