DreameNovelChapter 0029 Ella POV The cold blade moved away from my skin, and I breathed a sigh of relief. Whoever that deep voice belonged to had just saved me. It seemed, from the reaction of the kidnappers, that they feared this man-maybe he was truly their leader.
If not their leader, then certainly someone important enough to frighten them into silence.
"I don't know what possessed you to do this," the man said, "and I know that rogues aren't known for their honor, but surely you're not so stupid as to do something like this in the Southern Kingdom's territory." I could hear the kidnappers responding to him, though I couldn't make out their words. They were suddenly speaking very softly, which proved that they were afraid.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"I don't want to hear your excuses," the man snapped. “You will never attempt something like this again. Is that understood?" "Yes, sir," several of the men responded.
"You're going to take these three women back where they belong, unharmed. Is that clear?" "Yes, sir." "Do it immediately," he said. "And never letsee your faces around here again." As soon as he finished speaking, we were pulled from our chairs. Judging by how much more gentle the kidnappers were as they loaded us into the car, I assumed that the man was still standing nearby, watching. None of this made sense to me. Who was our mysterious savior, and how did he know what was happening? Who had decided to kidnap us in the first place? It was possible that someone had seen us in the bridal shop and decided to seize the opportunity, but it seemed too strange to me.
I got my hopes up that they wouldn't try something else once we were driven away from the man who had ordered our release. The car was so quiet; all I could hear was the sound of the motor as we drove for what felt like hours.
The only other sound was someone crying. I was sure that it was Amanda. It didn't make any sense though; why was she upset now that we had been rescued? Had she really wanted them to hurt me? Eventually, the car cto a stop. I heard struggling and granting before I was grabbed by my shoulders, yanked out of the car, and thrown onto the ground.
I landed hard and fell against someone who was already lying on the ground. Then the car sped away.
I lay there for several seconds, waiting for something else to happen. When nothing did, I sat up. "Mom, Amanda, are you here?" I asked.
"Right here, darling," my mother said.
Amanda's only answer was a sob.

Yes, my mother said. “Hold still; I'll untie your hands, then you can untie us.” I felt my mother's hands on mine, and after a few seconds struggling with the rope, it fell to the ground, and my arms were freed- +25 BONUS Chapter 01:29 I pulled off my blindfold and looked around us. We were in forest, and there was no sign of a car or anyone else nearby.
I quickly untied my mother, and then together we lifted Amanda off the m ground and untied her. She was sobbing and wouldn't say anything to either of us, no matter how many times we asked if she was hurt.
Finally, we gave up on asking and started to walk. My mother and I both ΟΠ recognized where we were, we were just on the border of our packlands. It would only take a little while for us to get home.
Since we were near the border, it didn't take long for us to find a patrol guard. The first guard we saw was a young man who looked shocked at our sudden appearance. When my mother explained what had happened, the man rushed to get a car for us and drove us back home. The relief of being safe in my own territory with our guards was something that almost broughtto tears. I don't think I had fully realized how frightened I was until the ordeal was over.
When we arrived at the house, the front door opened, and my father rushed out before we were even out of the car. He wrapped my mother in a tight hug.
