Reclaiming My Broken Luna

Drystan's POV

Before I could give much thought to what Asha's true intentions were, the door suddenly slammed open, stealing all of our attention.

Alpha Theron suddenly burst out of the door with a wide grin on his face. "Astrid is awake!" he cried, his voice brimming with unbridled joy. Without a moment's hesitation, I entered Astrid's room and rushed to her bedside with my heart pounding with a mixture of hope and trepidation. "Astrid,' I breathed out, stealing the breath from my lungs when I saw her.All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

There she was, finally sitting up on her bed, her eyes open and alert, with a small radiant smile playing on her lips.

"Drystan." Astrid muttered my name, surprised to see me here.

At that moment, a profound relief flooded through me, chasing away the fear and worry that had been my constant companion ever since Astrid was put in danger.

I'm so glad that I have left sooner, or else I wouldn't arrive on time to see her. She's finally alive, she's conscious - she has finally returned to us.

"Astrid!" Nova suddenly cried out, her voice thick with emotion as she disrupted the whole room.

She suddenly pushed me aside, and before I could react, she already had her arms around Astrid, almost swallowing her whole.

I watched with a mixture of joy and bewilderment as she enveloped Astrid in a tight hug, her eyes shining with unshed tears.

Seeing how Nova was squeezing Astrid to death, I stepped forward, about to pull her away, when Astrid suddenly returned Nova's hug with equal fervor, a small but radiant smile gracing her features. Nova's shoulders shook slightly as she held Astrid's close. "You scared me," she spoke angrily as she bawled her eyes out.

Astrid couldn't say a word; with the way that Nova was crying her eyes out, she knew how she had been overwhelmed with a flood of emotions-fear, anguish, and now, pure, unbridled joy.

"Why are you crying? You're crying as if I was dead," Astrid questioned her as she pulled herself out of the hug.

Nova sniffed as she tried to push back her tears. She tried to wipe away all her tears with the back of her hand.

"Look, I'm all right. You should stop crying now," Astrid spoke soothingly as she helped Nova brush away her hair from her face.

I found myself momentarily rooted to the spot as I watched how the two had gotten close to each other.

Seeing how Nova's trembling fingers grasped Astrid's hand, the way her eyes shone with tears, the sheer relief that radiated from her very being surprised me.

I have known Nova for a long time. Aside from me and her sister, she never held anyone close to her heart.

Nova rarely trusts or gets attached to people, and when her sister died, it became worse. She started to build defenses around her heart, not letting anyone in.

Even though she's friendly, outgoing, and popular in our Pack, she always keeps a distance in her heart.

Seeing all the emotions she's showing for Astrid, I knew Astrid had already penetrated her heart. Finally, aside from me and her sister, there's someone else that she held close to her heart.

A smile stretched the corner of my lips as I felt happy for Nova. Watching the two women cling to each other, I knew Nova would never be alone.

Even though it's been years since Nova's sister died, I know she always missed her. No matter what I do, I could never do a perfect job of taking care of Nova, just like Astrid did.

I'm happy that Nova finally found a new sister that she could rely on.

"Astrid, you don't know how much you scared me. It was also like this when I lost my sister. I never left her side as I waited for her to wake up. Then one day, she breathed her last breath and I was there to watch her die Nova lowered her head as she spoke.

My heart twisted within me as I was reminded of my mate's death.

Hearing her words, Astrid instantly felt bad. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry for scaring you," she apologized with her brows bent downwards.

"Astrid," Nova began. "You remind me so much of my sister - the kindest and strongest person I've ever known."

Astrid paused, not expecting to hear such a thing from Nova. "My sister was everything to me. Our parents died early and she had to raise me on her own. She could have just abandoned me to save her life, but she gave me everything that she had." "Nova," Astrid uttered her name to stop her, but Nova shook her head and continued.

"Astrid, are the strongest and kindest person that I know. You are just like my sister. Both of you showed me what kindness and strength looked like." Nova swallowed hard, her expression resolute.

"I promised myself that I would

never let anything happen to you, Astrid. I failed to protect my sister but I won't fail you. I will do whatever it takes to keep you safe because you. Nova's voice wavered. You mean as much to me as she did.

Astrid searched Nova's eyes with disbelief, crossing her features. She felt undeserving of Nova's affection. The depth of Nova's emotions caught her by surprise.

But then, a warm, understanding smile blossomed on her face, and she returned the gentle squeeze of Nova's hand.

"Nova, are you sure about this? I will never be your sister—"

"You showed me kindness, you treated me like your own blood. That should be enough for you to be called my sister," Nova insisted.

Astrid suddenly hugged Nova

tight."I'm so honored to be

compared to someone special to

you," Astrid murmured, her voice filled with gratitude. "And Nova, promise you - I will be here, by your side, for as long as you need me. We'll face whatever comes next, together."
