"Esta noche es una noche hermosa." A muffled voice said. Taking out one of my earbuds, I look up to see a very tall figure. "Excuse me?" "Tonight is a beautiful night." The voice said again with a thick Spanish accent. I was taken aback by the deep tone of his voice. "Yep, it sure is." I replied. All of a sudden I felt the cold barrel of a gun being pressed against my back. "Now we can do this the easy way, or the hard way. I think I already know your answer." The Spanish voice said stepping closer into the light of the streetlight. "All I wanted to do was go home and binge watch Teen Wolf." ~ Meet Victoria Grace, an ordinary teenager who loves to get into trouble and a good laugh. She has money, yes, but she isn't rich. But she does have things that make her look rich. And one day as she walks home from the grocery store she gets kidnapped and taken to some mafia gang.
