Ella POV My mother was the first to realize what was really happening. She very softly whispered into my ear, "Ella, stay calm. We're being kidnapped." I stared at her in shock, trying to make sense of her words. When I looked out the window, I could see that she was right. We were being taken north, and it was clear that the driver had no intention of bringing us home. My heart began to race. I had no idea who could be doing this or what they might aim to gain other than money. After all, kidnapping the Luna and her daughter could only make sense if it was committed for revenge or ransom. "What are you whispering about?" Amanda asked. She had been acting strangely since the moment we left the dress shop. She didn’t seem phased by the fact that we were going the wrong way.
