Reclaiming My Broken Luna (Astrid and Killian) novel Chapter 24

Astrid’s POV

I raised my arms and watched how the moonlight reflected on my skin. I don’t understand what is happening. This has never happened to me before.

I took a step back with my heart racing inside my chest. Fear gripped me for I didn’t know if I was in danger or not.

The moon shone brighter and it looked larger than usual. The crowd was so amazed their mouths were open in awe as they marveled at the moon’s sight.

As werewolves, they are attracted to the moon’s sight. They were completely unaware that I was already panicking behind them.

My whole body trembled in fear as my body absorbed the moon’s light. The light of the moon that was shining so brightly above us slowly narrowed down to my body as if I were absorbing it.

“Huh? What’s happening?” Whispers grew from the crowd as everyone turned confused when the moon’s light slowly faded away into one area.

Thankfully, their eyes remained on the moon in front of them. No one had thought of looking behind them yet.

I was about to turn around to run away from this place before someone could discover what was happening when something heavy crushed my body.

I don’t know what it was, but my knees wobbled at the sudden heaviness that crashed into my body. Still, I managed to remain standing.

My vision turned blurry and my head felt like it was being stretched by something. I think the moonlight is causing me to get sick. It’s altering something inside of me and I just wanted it all to stop.

“Huh?” I think the moonlight is moving in one direction,” someone in the crowd finally figured out.

Being pushed to the edge of my senses, I couldn’t do anything. Everyone is going to find out what’s happening to me now.

Unless I found out what this was, I couldn’t let them see me. What if this is a curse and they force me to leave their pack for this?

I need to leave.

“Astrid?” Although the voice sounded so stretched in my ears, I still recognized Drystan’s voice.

“Where are you?” Drystan asked as he looked among the crowd when he didn’t see me at the spot where I was.

Drystan’s voice attracted the crowd’s attention. Just a minute now, Drystan is going to look behind him, the last spot that he hasn’t yet checked and the crowd will turn around because of his voice.

By then, everything would be over for me. Everyone will be afraid of me because of this incident that I couldn’t understand.
