Chapter 1

Once upon a time in the magical kingdom of Enchancia, there lived a family in the village. Miranda and Eric lived happily for years with their daughter, Lyra. For

fourteen years they lived a simple but happy life and all was well until Miranda announced she was pregnant again. Eric became angry due to barely managing

to support the family as it is. He ordered his wife to terminate the pregnancy saying they already had enough to deal with. She refused to give up her child

and Eric appeared to calm at this answer. He began acting suspicious all the rest of the week but Miranda did not notice this. Three days later Eric and Miranda

had a terrible argument in the morning and Eric stormed out of the house. All was well until later that night he broke into the house stole some money, took his

possessions, and just to hurt his wife where it hurts the most he broke into the room where Lyra slept and kidnapped their daughter and all Miranda could do was

cry and beg hysterically as she heard her daughter scream into the night. For as long as her condition would allow she searched and searched for her daughter

but to no avail. Eight long months passed and she could no longer continue the search and she gave birth to a beautiful baby girl whom she named Sofia. She

was what every woman in the village wished to be. She somehow managed to work her shop and care for her child all at once with what seemed like ease. To all,

she seemed happy but while her infant daughter slept she would take out a small box with a picture of her missing daughter and a lock of her hair and cry.

She would hope and pray that someday she would find her daughter and bring her home safely. The years slowly began to pass as Sofia grew into a beautiful

and kind girl while Miranda searched for her lost daughter who was soon to turn 21.
