Reclaiming My Broken Luna (Astrid and Killian) novel Chapter 50

Astrid’s POV

I lay motionless on my bed, my eyes distant and unfocused as the weight of Killian’s words pressed heavily upon my heart, sapping me of my energy and will.

My mind couldn’t stop going back to his shameless accusations. I couldn’t believe how he could accuse me of cheating him and sleeping with his own uncle when he was the one who cheated in our marriage.

I couldn’t believe how shameless he was to put all the blame on me when he was the one who ruined our marriage.

All my life, I have dedicated my life to him as his wife, even though he never appreciated everything that I did. I stayed loyal and faithful to him, always mindlessly hoping that he would grow feelings for me or hopefully become a loving husband in return.

I waited for years and invested all of my efforts in our relationship. In the end, all it took was for his ex-girlfriend to come back, and he threw away everything that we had and impregnated her.

“I’ve completed the examination,” The Pack Doctor spoke, breaking me away from my thoughts. “The baby is perfectly healthy. Their heartbeat is strong, and all the vital signs are right where they should be.”

A faint, tremulous smile tugged at the corner of my lips.

“What about Astrid?” Drystan asked.

Nova had already left since someone from our Pack needed to handle the ongoing event outside.

The Pack Doctor nodded solemnly. “Physically, she’s doing well too. The effects of the broken mate bond are taking a toll, as expected, but her body is adapting.” He paused, his gaze softening with empathy.

He then turned his attention back to me after he answered Drystan’s question. “I know this is an incredibly difficult time for you, Astrid, but you and the baby are safe, and I will do everything in my power to help you recover.

“The bond…” I murmured as I clutched the bedsheet.

I know that I’m the first one who rejected Killian, and he merely accepted my rejection. Still, sadness welled in my heart now that I officially don’t have any connection with him.

This is what I wanted. This is what’s best for me and for my child. I just felt sad because Killian was once a huge part of my life, but now he’s gone.

I hope I willn’t meet or see him again.

"Yes," the Pack Doctor replied, “the bond. I recommend you remain on strict bedrest until the effects have fully worn off. Your body and mind need time to heal, to find a new equilibrium,” he explained.
