Reclaiming My Broken Luna

Chapter 16: Astrid is Dead



: Astrid is Dead



Drystan's POV

"ASTRID! I know you are hiding here, Astrid! Come out this instant!”

Killian's voice rang inside the packhouse as I walked down the stairs to meet him.

As soon as I saw his face, my blood boiled in an instant. How dare he cause a scene here in my Pack and pretend that he really cares about Astrid after he sent his men to kill her?

Isn't this what he wanted? To see her dead? His audacity baffles me.

I locked gazes with Killian as I approached him. Our pack guards held him back, stopping him from entering the Pack.

He stopped fighting against the guards and forcing himself to enter when he saw me coming.

"You!" Killian's face was red in anger as he pointed his hand out at me. "I know you are hiding Astrid. Show her to me now!" Killian demanded.

I scoffed in disbelief as I approached him. What game is he playing now?

"Don't worry Killian, your wish had already come true. Astrid is dead and she's never coming back," I told him, knowing that he only came all the way here to confirm if Astrid is really dead.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

Hearing my words, the muscles in his jaw tightened and his eyes narrowed into slits. "That's not true!" Killian shouted. "You think I would believe that?"

"If you don't want to believe me, then see it yourself," I answered.

"Guards!" I called my men's attention. "Show him."

The Pack guards did as they were told. They moved to the side and allowed Killian to enter.

Killian had a smug look on his face as he sauntered inside like he owned this place.

As Killian walked in, I noticed another woman follow after him. My brows furrowed when I saw the woman's familiar face. For a moment I couldn't remember who she was until I realized that she was Killian's ex-girlfriend from before.

What is she doing here? Why is she with Killian?

I quietly followed behind them to see what their reaction was going to be. My Beta also followed behind me, never leaving my side.

Killian stopped in his tracks when the guard finally showed him the place where Astrid's memorial service was taking place.

Killian's jaw dropped to the floor when he saw Astrid's big picture in front and the people who were wearing black clothes to mourn for Astrid's death. His eyes turned moist with tears, but he blinked them back in disbelief.

If I hadn't known that Killian sent his men to kill Astrid, I would be fooled by him. I would have easily believed that he truly cared about his ex-wife. The smug look on Killian's face finally vanished, replaced with shock and denial as he slowly walked in front to see his ex-wife.

Killian swallowed hard and his lips trembled slightly as he tried to wrap his head around the news.

He stopped and stared at Astrid's photo where she was smiling beautifully After a minute of staring at her, he looked down and saw the fake um we prepared to make Killian think that it was Astrid's ashes.

Killian suddenly scoffed and shook his head. "That's not Astrid," he muttered with his gaze fixated on the urn. "Astrid is still alive!"

Killian clenched his jaw as he slowly turned his head to look at me. "Astrid must be in here somewhere, you are hiding her!" Killian glared at me. "Killian," Giselle spoke in a soft whisper and placed a hand on Killian's shoulder to stop him. "Let's calm down first, okay?" Giselle whispered to him. Killian harshly shook his shoulder, making Giselle's hand drop off him. "I know you are hiding her. Show her to me!"

I glanced at Giselle, wondering what was her relationship with Killian when I saw how she tried to stop him before turning my attention back on Killian. "You've already seen her ashes, Killian. Is this not enough for you to make sure that Astrid is already dead?" I questioned.

I held my breath when Killian suddenly grabbed me by the collar.

"You!” he hissed angrily. “You killed her. You allowed her to die!"

I pushed him off me angrily causing him to stagger backwards. My nostrils flared in anger when I heard his accusations.

Wasn't it enough for him that he ordered his men to kill Astrid? Now he is accusing me of killing her?

"If there is anyone who should be

blamed for Astrid's death, it's you Killian!" yelled at him, knocking him back to his senses. “You killed Astrid! Don't you ever put that blame on me?"

Killian suddenly roared in anger as he thrashed the room and scattered the flowers around, destroying the memorial service that we prepared.

His voice was raw with unbridled fury as he threw and pushed everything away, leaving only Astrid's photo and the urn untouched.

“This is fake! This is all fake!” Killian yelled out loud as he ravaged the place.

My Beta stepped forward to stop him, but I held him back. I just stood there and watched Killian without stopping him.

Whatever Killian is playing, I wanted

to see it. I didn't know that my nephew had a talent for acting. Anyone who could see him right

now would think that he is really devastated at his ex-wife's death.

"Bring Astrid to me!" Killian demanded. "I know that she's alive."
