Romance Poll 2 (Edited for 3rd Option)

This is strictly for the guys as I have a few ideas for them. Syd and Nour won the other two and due to Syd having an immense lead, I'm just going to do her. The people have spoken.

Guy wise: Ruben, Zarik, and Chris won. I have no problem with doing something for any of them. I'm going to shoo Zarik off though due to being the only one in that list that doesn't have that much content so I may accidentally get into spoiler territory or something I write may change when I do focus on him. So, Ruben and Chris. Two ideas came up but Chris may cause some issues because of how I'll write it so below is a summary of what they'll have and you tell me which one you'd rather see.

*Edit: Side Characters did tie with Zarik so if you guys want to see one of them more than the two given then choose that and of course another vote with stories attached will be added)

Chris Story: Beauty and the Beast Style

AU where Chris lives in a small, secluded village and has always heard tales about the monsters that lives nearby. One of those monsters have always piqued his interest though and when he faces death, he meets this monster and struggles to feel the same as the weary villages. **Obviously, we know who the monster is. But the issue that some may have is either I will: a) do this solely from Chris' PoV or b) go back and forth. I don't want this one solely from Roe's point of view because it will be lacking a lot.

Ruben Story: Honeymoon

In dragon culture, the week after a wedding is the most important. Secure and lock the bond. But due to everything, they're the first in a very long time who have had to push back their honeymoon to another month. What should be a few days of nothing but love can quickly slip into something else as struggles arise between two cultures that were once at war.
