Reclaiming My Broken Luna

: Stranger

Killian's POV

It has been three days of restlessness, waiting for Astrid to come back and beg for my forgiveness. I wasn't expecting that she would even last for a day out there to realize her mistakes and eat back her words.

She is too arrogant and prideful that she would rather sleep in the streets than admit her own mistakes.

I had sent a word to all of the surrounding Packs and told them that I would break my alliance with them if ever they allowed Astrid inside their Pack. So far, all of them listened, they did not even allow Astrid to set foot in their Pack.

Now, I wonder where Astrid is staying at.

As the days passed by with no news of her, I hated to admit that I was getting worried about her. I had no idea where she had gone to hide, and I couldn't even contact her through the mind link.

"If

f you really want her to come back, why don't you just lower yourself and search for her instead? Nothing will happen if you just wait in here!" Liam, my wolf, screamed angrily inside my head.

Ever since Astrid had left, Liam had rarely talked to me. Whenever he does, he only says words to convince me to chase after Astrid.

No way in hell will I ever do that. Besides, I have already tasked my men to track Astrid for me. Astrid is not that special that I should chase after her.

Astrid needs me more than I need her.

"Killian, are you busy?" Giselle pokes her head inside my door without even knocking.

"Killian?" Giselle entered inside and closed the door behind her.

I just stared at her, wondering what business she had with me now.

Giselle's brows furrowed when she received no reaction from me. "Is something wrong?" She softly asked.

I sighed as finally gave her my attention. "I'm sorry, I was just thinking of something," I muttered.

Giselle pouted when she heard my words. "I noticed that you are stressing yourself too much lately. You work so much, you rarely make time for me and the baby."

Giselle knew she would get my whole attention once she mentioned our child.

"Giselle, as long as you take care of yourself and meet with our Pack Doctor regularly, there would be no problem with the child," I responded indifferently.

I can't take care of her myself every day if that is what she wants. Besides, that is exactly the purpose of the Pack Doctor in charge of her.

Giselle looked hurt when she heard my words. "It wouldn't hurt for you to take some time to visit me and check on us."

Hearing her words, I looked into her eyes realizing that I needed to clarify this with her. "Giselle, things aren't the same as it was before between us. We can't go back to the past," I told her bluntly.

watch him grow. You and your child will be safe forever," I explained to her to clear out our boundaries.

Giselle was lost for words. She just stood still and emptily stared at me.

"You also do not have to worry about Astrid, added in case she was worried that she would hurt them. "I Kave ordered all the surrounding Packs not to accept her. You and your child will be safe forever. I won't allow even Astrid to hurt both of you."

"Killian―" Giselle tried to interrupt, but I made my voice louder than hers to stop her.

"Aside from those things, don't expect anything more from me," I told her without beating around the bush.

I cannot give what she wanted. It's better for her to realize now that I have no fegs for her

Giselle looked like she had lost something big when she heard my words, but she did not dare to argue with me.

"If there is nothing else, you can leave," I waved her off

I know I sounded rude, but there's no other way for me to say it nicer.

Giselle left without a word.

One of my men rushed in right after she left. He held a look of excitement in his eyes, as he brought me something.

"I checked the surveillance cameras and I finally found her," he declared.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

My heart raced rapidly in my chest when I heard the news.

I watched the CCTV footage intently as he started to play it. My heart constricted inside of me when I saw how the rogues attacked Astrid.

Why didn't she fight back? She could easily win against those rogues if she shifted.

My brows wrinkled together when a strange man suddenly came into the picture and saved Raven.

Unfortunately, the camera didn't show the face of the stranger. I could only look at his back.

I paused the video as I stared at the back of the stranger. His back looked familiar, but I couldn't recognize him.

I clenched my fist in anger. Now I know why Astrid still hasn't returned until now.

Who is the man who took her?
