Reclaiming My Broken Luna (Astrid and Killian) novel Chapter 8

Astrid’s POV

I groaned in pain when a pounding headache entered my senses as soon as I woke up.

I fluttered my eyes open and squinted in confusion when I found myself in an unfamiliar room.

I placed a hand on my head as I slowly stood up and looked around. For a moment I felt hazy until I blinked my eyes and collected myself together.

Soon enough, memories from last night flooded in my head, explaining why I was in pain, but it didn’t explain where I was.

“Astrid.” I looked up when I heard someone call my name. I came back to my senses when I saw Drystan enter the room.

“Are you okay? What do you feel?” Drystan asked me worriedly as he approached me.

Looking at him, I finally recognized the stranger last night before I fell unconscious. I couldn’t believe that it was him and he saved me.

I openly stared at Drystan for I was too stunned to speak. I did not expect that I would see him this soon.

I had just stepped down as a Luna and divorced Killian yesterday. I’m sure he had already heard the news.

I felt embarrassed that he had to save me from the rogues last night. Drystan is still my ex-husband’s uncle even though we are friends.

Now that I have divorced his nephew, he is no longer related to me. I’m not even sure if we could still count each other as close friends anymore because we really haven’t seen each other for so many years.

We only meet once a year during the annual Pack Assembly. We just saw each other more frequently recently because of the things that had happened, and of course, my grandmother’s death.

“Thank you for saving my life,” I muttered weakly after he came closer to me.

I couldn’t even look into his eyes because I felt that I owed him a lot. He was there when I needed comfort during my grandmother’s funeral, and now I owe him my life.

As if that wasn’t enough, I was also the one who filed for divorce against his nephew.

I fidgeted my fingers nervously as I felt his eyes on me. Questions filled his head and I waited for him to ask his questions

“It’s okay, Astrid. You are safe now. You don’t have to worry about anything, my pack will take care of you.” Instead of receiving questions from him, I received his assurance instead.

He must have noticed my discomfort. I’m still on the edge of my nerves especially since everything happened so fast.

When I realized that I was inside the Nightsong Pack, my nerves slowly relaxed.
