Chapter 11: Surprise Attack

Astrid’s POV

My attention was on the woman as soon she entered. I couldn’t take my eyes away from her even if I wanted to. She is so alluring and there’s just something unique about her charm.

I watched how her strawberry pink curls bounced as she rushed inside with at huge smile on her face. I could only stare at her side profile.

“Drystan!” She shouted happily in her serene voice.

For a moment I was surprised that she didn’t address Drystan as Alpha. It seems like the two of them are really close.

“Noya! You are finally back!” Drystan smiled happily at her as he faced her.

He instantly dropped the business conversation he was having with his assistant when she entered.

I watched as the two of them hugged each other. After that, Nova slaps Drystan on his shoulder.

“What happened while I was gone, huh?” she questioned him, trying to catch up with the days she wasn’t around.

“Oh, I wanted you to meet someone,” Drystan craned his neck as he searched around the cafeteria.

He smiled when his gaze landed on me. “Astrid! Come here!” He waved me to

come over.

I felt embarrassed when he called me out of the crowd. I felt like I fell under the spotlight because of him.

I put down the plate that I was holding and slowly walked towards me. Nova’s eyes were on me as I approached them.

“Astrid, this is Nova. She’s a friend of mine,” he introduced her to me.

“Nice to meet you. I’m Astrid.” I smiled at her..

Nova looked at me for a long time, but not in a judging way. Now that she’s standing in front of me, I could finally look at her up close.

Nova is a cute girl and her strawberry pink curls really suit her. She has smiling eyes and pouty lips making her look so friendly and bubbly.

forced a smile on my face when I sensed something wrong. Nova doesn’t seem to like me and I do not know why.

“Nice meeting you too,” she replied without smiling.

She turned her attention to Drystan and patted his shoulder. “I’ll go meet the others.” She excused herself and then left.

“Sister Nova! Sister Nova!” The young members of the Pack rushed to Nova and hugged her legs as soon as she left.

“We miss you Angel Sister!” The kids crowded around her with smiles on their faces.

Nova laughed when she saw the happy faces of the children around her. Seeing how the kids like her just only show her good character.

There’s no way they would call her Angel Sister if she doesn’t have the character of an Angel.

“Nova, how was the trip?” Some of the adults also flocked in. They were all

excited to welcome her.

I watched them all from afar, Nova was so affectionate towards all of them. Everyone in the Pack loves her it’s as if she is their Pack’s Luna.

“I’m going to breathe some fresh air,” I muttered to Drystan who was just standing beside me.

“Let me come with you,” Drystan is about to follow after me, but I stopped him. ” You should go join your pack members. I do not need a guard.”

Drystan looked at me in silence, but he eventually nodded his head and let me

1. go.

I walked out of the Packhouse to give space for myself. Seeing how Nova is so loved by everyone, I am reminded of how my life used to be when I was still the Silvermoon Pack’s Luna.

In my case though, the people only flock around me if they need something from me. Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

I sighed as I walked away mindlessly at Drystan’s unfamiliar Pack. This is the first time I’ve been here, I don’t even know where my feet are taking me.

I just wanted to be away from the Packhouse until I couldn’t hear the noises from there anymore. I just want to be alone and walk until I’m free from my depressive thoughts.

The Nightsong Pack is surrounded by the forest. I would be safe as long as I don’t go out of the borders.

However, because I am not a member of the Nightsong Pack. I have no indication of where their Pack border ends.

I just continued walking not knowing that I was already putting myself in danger.

I froze when I heard a branch snap not far from me. All of the members of the Nightsong Pack should be at their Pack’s cafeteria right now. I’m supposed to be alone in this forest.

My heart thumped loudly in my chest knowing that I was not alone out there. I- searched around to see my enemy, but he hid himself so well. He must be waiting for his chance to attack.

I took in a few deep breaths before sprinting out of the forest as far as my two legs could take me. When the enemy saw me run, he immediately came out of his hiding place and chased after me.

I yelped and was pushed off my feet when the wolf caught after me. He lunged at me and pushed me to the ground.

My face contorted in pain as I tried to squirm my way out of his grasp. When I turned around to face him, my breath hitched upon realizing that I wasn’t attacked by rogues. I was attacked by werewolves.
