Reclaiming My Broken Luna (Astrid and Killian) novel Chapter 324

Astrid’s POV

I stared at the book in my hands, my fingers trembling as I continued to flip through the pages.

I had always known Giselle was manipulative, a liar through and through, but this time… she had been telling the truth.

The truth was here, written in the ancient pages of this book, and no matter how much I wanted to deny it, I couldn’t.

My heart raced, each beat thudding heavily in my chest. This book wasn’t just about some random creature. It was about me.

The next passage stopped me cold.

“Relationships between Alphas and Omegas are forbidden. Such unions are immoral, unnatural, and evil. They go against the natural order of the wolf hierarchy. The offspring of such unions are cursed, born with an inherent darkness that cannot be tamed. They are known as Almegas.”

My blood turned to ice. Immoral. Unnatural. Cursed.

The words echoed in my mind, each one cutting deeper than the last. My parents… they had been forbidden from loving each other.

Their union had never been accepted by the world we lived in. And I… I was the result of that forbidden love.

The consequence of their choices. Born with this darkness, this imbalance inside me.

I turned the page, dreading what came next, but knowing I had to see it through.

“An Almega is the result of the deadly combination of Alpha and Omega blood. The Almega wolf is unstable, caught between the strength and dominance of the Alpha and the submissive, primal instincts of the Omega. This imbalance creates a creature that is feral, uncontrollable, and filled with an insatiable urge to kill. Once the wolf gains control, the human counterpart is lost. Permanently.”

My breath caught in my throat, and I felt the world tilt beneath me. My mind reeled as I tried to process what I was reading.

This wasn’t just about an imbalance. It was about losing myself. Becoming a monster just like what Giselle had said.

I forced myself to keep reading, even though every word tore a little more of my soul apart.

“Once an Almega wolf takes control of the body, the result is catastrophic. The wolf becomes stronger than any Alpha, its killing instincts overpowering any trace of humanity. The transformation is irreversible. There is no cure, no way to stop the wolf once it has fully taken over.”

My hands began to shake violently, and I dropped the book into my lap. No cure. No way back.

The words stared back at me, cold and final, as if they were sealing my fate.

I wanted to scream, to rip the book apart, to deny everything I had just read — but I couldn’t.

Deep down, I had always felt something was wrong. I had always sensed that there was a darkness inside me, something that I couldn’t control.

And now, I knew what I was…

An Almega.

Tears blurred my vision, and I blinked them away, my chest tightening as if I were suffocating.

I had always feared the wolf inside me, but this… this was something else entirely. This was a curse. A death sentence.

I picked up the book again, my hands trembling, and continued to read, though every word felt like a blade cutting deeper into my heart.

It’s like I couldn’t stop once I had started it.

“Almegas cannot coexist with others. The imbalance within them makes them dangerous, violent, and unpredictable. The wolf’s violent nature will always overpower the human. Almegas are a threat to everyone around them, especially those they love. If an Almega is discovered, it must be killed before the transformation is complete.”
