Reclaiming My Broken Luna (Astrid and Killian)

Drystan's POV

Theron, Nova, and I sat around the dining table as we ate our dinner in the Shadowfang Pack's private dining room.

On our table, there are a lot of foods to choose from. It was more than enough to fill our hungry stomachs for tonight.

Now that Astrid is healed, thanks to the Lunar Elixir, I can finally relax and have nothing to worry about.

As I stared at the feast before me, I felt a familiar rumbling inside my stomach - a sensation that I hadn't felt ever since Astrid's life was put in danger.

Now that she was healed and my emotions no longer overwhelmed me, my body could properly function again.

While the three of us were eating dinner and enjoying an expensive wine, Asha, who had saved Astrid's life, couldn't even join us.

Although the Lunar Elixir worked to save Astrid's life and stabilize her condition, strict monitoring is needed on her vitals to make sure that nothing would go wrong with her.

Asha had to stay behind and take care of Astrid and eat her dinner while doing work.

"Thank you so much, Alpha Theron, for giving us a warm welcome in your Pack and saving Astrid. Without your help, we don't know what else we could do to save Astrid," Nova spoke with gratitude to Theron, who was sitting right across from us. Theron only smiled and chuckled in response. He raised and shook his hand like it was nothing.

However, that wasn't nothing. He used their Pack's sacred treasure to save Astrid. If it wasn't for that, I would have easily believed that Theron only agreed to help Astrid for our friendship's sake.

However, since he used their Pack's sacred treasure to save her, it shows how desperate he is to save Astrid. This act even encompasses our friendship. I don't think there is any reasonable reason for him to do that.

I doubt that he wanted something in exchange for us. The Nightsong Pack is just a small Pack that is on the brink of bankruptcy. What could we possibly have that could compare to their Pack's sacred treasure? Even if I give him everything that we have, including my life, it would never meet the worth of the Lunar Elixir.

"About the Lunar Elixir," I spoke up, making everyone fall silent. "What is going to happen now that your Pack's sacred treasure is gone?" I asked, making the atmosphere around us turn cold.

I shouldn't have mentioned it, but I had to. I couldn't forget Asha's words from earlier in Astrid's room.

She spoke of disasters and distraction. I wanted to know if that is true.

Theron only gave me an assuring smile. "You don't have to worry about that. I've thought about my decisionCarefully. Even if I had the chance to go back, I would always make that same decision. As an Alpha, I don't take my words lightly," Theron explained.

I know that, but his words still didn't do a thing against the uneasiness that boiled inside of me.

"Our Pack will always remember this kindness that you showed us. From now on, we pledge our loyalty to you. We will serve your Pack until our Pack ceases to exist," Nova vowed, to which I nodded my head and agreed. As soon as I come back to our Pack, I will instantly make a decree to put Nova's words into our Pack's official law.

The Shadowfang Pack sacrificed their Pack's sacred treasure for us. It's only right that we also sacrifice our lives for them.

Theron only smiled at Nova's words before turning his gaze to me. "Look at you," he muttered. "I thought you'd be anything else except an Alpha. I never thought you would be leading your own Pack someday."

I only laughed at his words. "It's the

same for you too. I also thought you would be anything else except an Alpha, but look at you now. You had turned into an Alpha of the most powerful Pack in the world.

without bitterness but by finding

humor about our situation.

As the youngest sons, being an Alpha wasn't our destiny. It's the destiny of our elder brothers. However, fate has different plans for us. In some twisted fate, we became what we hadn't expected ourselves to be.

"Drystan, don't say that," Nova reprimanded me, but I didn't mind her.

What I said is true. Our Pack would be disbanding soon, but it doesn't make me sad as I thought it would.

I guess with everything that happened with Astrid, I'm just glad that she's safe and alive.

"I just heard what happened about your Pack," Theron spoke, catching all of our attention again. "I didn't even know that you started your own Pack and became an Alpha. As the Alpha of the Shadowfang Pack, I don't get news outside our Pack." I nodded my head in understanding. I'm aware that Shadowfang Pack is isolating itself from other Packs.

"Alpha," someone spoke behind us. Our heads whirled around to face the source.

There, we saw Beta Alek standing by the doorway like he was summoned to come.

"Beta Alek, I need you to make an announcement for me. You must announce this not only within our Pack but also to all other Packs. From now on, the Shadowfang Pack will be signing an alliance with the Nightsong Pack," Theron declared, leaving us all speechless,
