Unfortunately for the unsuspecting pair the chateau servants are determined to break the curse and spend the majority of their time pushing Elle and Severin together. After bonding over gardens animals and terrifying squirrels Elle and Severin show signs of friendship and perhaps something more But not all love stories can end that easily.
