The Kiss
"If a man of pure heart were to fall in love with her, that would bring her back to life."
- Sleeping Beauty
"The Kiss" is the third of a three-part story line based on the Briar Rose, which is a version of Sleeping Beauty written by the Brothers Grimm. In it, a princess is placed under a horrible enchantment: when she pricks her hand on a spindle, she will die. But a fairy partially reverses the curse, proclaiming that the princess will instead fall into a deep sleep for 100 years and be awoken by a king's son. When the princess is 15, she chances upon an old woman who is spinning in a tower. The princess asks to try the unfamiliar task and the inevitable happens: the curse is fulfilled.
Juliette is put under the spell by Adalind, but she is put into this deep sleep at the scratch of her cat instead of the prick of a spindle. The question is... who is the prince whose kiss will wake Juliette from her slumber?
