Reclaiming My Broken Luna (Astrid and Killian) novel Chapter 20

Astrid’s POV

As a person who had lost her mate to another woman, I think that’s enough for me to understand what it feels like to lose your mate to death.

Although both things are entirely different, I still know how much Drystan suffered when his mate died.

Drystan lost half of him when his mate died and he never recovered from her death. After many years had passed, I know he still loves his mate now and he would choose to have her over and over again if he could.

If there was a way to bring someone back to life, he would have traveled around the world to find the procedure that would bring her to life instead of searching for his second chance mate to replace the first one that he had and loved.

As an Alpha, Drystan needs to have a Luna that could lead his Pack by his side. He did not look for his second chance mate because he had already moved on, he searched for her for the sake of his Pack.

It must have hurt more for him to be forced to find your second chance mate when you haven’t yet recovered from the death of your first.

Drystan’s life is the saddest story that I know, yet I’m proud of him for still holding on.

“My sister and I only have each other,” Nova smiled at her memory.

For Drystan, they only had each other too. Everyone knows the story of how Drystan was the most powerful son and how he deserved to be the Silvermoon Pack’s Alpha. However, he was excluded just because he wasn’t the firstborn.

His mate must have been with him during those hard times.

“My sister was born ten years earlier than me,” Nova continued. “When I was only four, our parents died and she had to be both a mother and a father to me. At such an early age, she could have just abandoned me or put me up for adoption, but she raised me on her own. She was never able to enjoy her teenage years because of me.”

I felt sad for Drystan’s mate, but at the same time, I am amazed by her resilience and courage to raise up her sister alone at a young age.

If she’s still alive, I know she would be happy to see how her sister grew up and it’s all because of her.

I didn’t have to meet her to see what a great person she had been. Just looking at her younger sister, speaks volumes to what she had been like.

“Your sister would be so proud of you,” I smiled at Nova to lift her spirits up.
