A plot could involve Belle's daughter falling in love with a commoner from the village. Her family, especially her father, is hesitant about the relationship because they fear she might be taken advantage of. Meanwhile, an old enemy of the Beast resurfaces, seeing the daughter's relationship as a way to get revenge on the family. So, she has to fight for her love and protect her family at the same time.
One possible plot could be that Belle's daughter discovers a hidden part of the castle that holds a secret about her father's past as the Beast. Maybe she accidentally stumbles upon a locked room filled with old portraits and journals that reveal how he became cursed in the first place. This discovery could then lead her on a journey to break a remaining part of the curse that still lingers on the castle and its inhabitants.
Perhaps Belle's daughter has a special gift, like the ability to communicate with animals in a more profound way than her mother. She could use this gift to help solve a problem in the village near the castle. However, some villagers are suspicious of her because of her connection to the once - feared Beast. This would create a conflict between her desire to help and the villagers' distrust, all while she's trying to live up to her mother's legacy.
Well, one possible plot could be that Belle's sister is jealous of Belle's relationship with the Beast. So she tries to sabotage it by spreading false rumors in the village about the Beast being a real monster who can't be tamed. This causes a lot of unrest among the villagers and puts Belle in a difficult position.
It could be a relative of Gaston. Maybe a cousin or a younger brother who has always held a grudge against Belle for rejecting Gaston and causing his death. This character could be plotting to ruin Belle's family and take over the castle. He might try to turn the villagers against Belle's daughter by spreading false rumors about her family's dark secrets.
Love and growth are likely themes. The love between Belle and the Beast continues to grow as they anticipate the arrival of their child. They also grow as individuals. Belle becomes a mother - to - be, and the Beast evolves into a more responsible and caring figure. And there could be a theme of hope. Their child represents hope for a future where humans and the enchanted beings in the castle can coexist peacefully.
Belle could get sick due to the drafty corridors of the castle. The Beast would be beside himself with worry. He might sit by her bedside all day, reading to her from his favorite books in his attempt to comfort her. As she recovers, she might find new aspects of his personality that she admires.
It could be Belle's sister herself. If she's envious of Belle, she might turn into a villain. She could try to keep Belle away from the Beast and the castle forever, perhaps by locking Belle up or convincing the villagers to keep Belle away. This would make her the main source of conflict in the story.
This idea could lead to exploring how the Beast's perception and relationship with Belle might change. Maybe it would make their connection more profound as it wouldn't be based on outward appearance.
There are several potential causes. Perhaps the Beast's temper gets the best of him for a moment and he accidentally causes her harm, although he would be extremely regretful afterwards. Or, there could be a new, malevolent character in the fanfiction, like a dark spirit that lurks in the forest around the castle and attacks Belle when she ventures out. It could also be that she was trying to help the Beast with something related to his curse and something went wrong, resulting in her getting hurt.
Well, a cool fanfiction concept could be that Belle discovers a hidden part of the castle that holds the secrets of Beast's past. As she uncovers these secrets, it deepens their relationship even more. Or perhaps a story where Beast gets turned human for a short time and he has to adapt to the human world without Belle by his side at first. He then realizes how much he truly depends on her. Another interesting one would be a fanfiction where Belle's father gets lost in the enchanted forest again, and Beast and Belle have to go on a new adventure to find him.
It could lead to a very different story. Maybe Gaston would change for the better with Belle's influence, or they might still have a lot of conflicts.
