Reclaiming My Broken Luna (Astrid and Killian) novel Chapter 121

Astrid’s POV

“Stop blaming yourself for it,” Nova suddenly spoke beside me, breaking me from my thoughts. “It wasn’t your fault. She was the one who approached us and said those mean things first. She was clearly asking for a fight.”

I turned my gaze back to the view outside the window when I finally realized what she was talking about.

“I’m sure she did it on purpose. She deliberately provoked you to make you lose control. It was obvious that she was trying to make you look like a bad person in front of your father. In the end, her plan backfired,” Nova continued talking.

I sighed and lowered my gaze to my fingers. “It’s normal for her to feel that I’m a threat, Nova. As someone who grew up without a father, I will never know how it feels like to grow up with one.

Asha had experienced that, and now she’s feeling that her father is slowly slipping away because of me. It’s normal for her to do such things. I only wish that her fear won’t become true.”

Nova momentarily stopped what she was doing as she faced me. “What a kind and understanding sister you are,” she mocked me, making me smile.

“I wondered what she’s doing right now. Asha is used to always burying herself in her work. She must be dying of boredom right now,” I muttered with genuine concern. “Should we pay her a visit?”

“Do you want to make her hate you more?” Nova retorted. “Didn’t you see how she got mad when you tried to help her?”

“Still, if it wasn’t for her, I wouldn’t have survived. I still owe her my life for taking care of me when I was fighting for my life,” I muttered a soft reply.

“If it wasn’t for your father’s orders, Asha wouldn’t have done that. You don’t know how much she argued against saving your life. Maybe if she had known that you were her half-sister, she would have thrown the Lunar Elixir away.”

I didn’t give her an answer; I continued to stare out the window.

“Is there something else that is bothering you?” Nova suddenly asked.

I sighed. There was really something else that was bothering me. I had only thought about what happened to Asha earlier when Nova brought it up.

“I just couldn’t remember what happened. I don’t know how I ended up hurting Asha. She’s a very powerful werewolf compared to me. She could easily kill me even when we are both in human form,” I finally voiced out my concerns. “Tell me, Nova, what did I look like when I suddenly attacked Asha?”

Nova pressed her brows together as she thought about it. “Your eyes are gold, and they were glowing,”

Upon the mention of the word gold, I suddenly remembered the majestic silver wolf that I saw when I lost control of my body. That wolf had a glowing golden iris, too.

“What else?” I asked Nova.

“I couldn’t describe it, but it was like you are possessed by an evil spirit,” she answered unsurely.
