Chapter 22: True Friends

Astrid’s POV

“Astrid,” Drystan called out my name as soon as he entered my room. He stopped in his tracks when he saw Nova and the Pack Doctor who were standing beside me.

“What happened?” Drystan’s eyes widened as he rushed over me.

He looked at me with a worry etched across his face as if I was already dying. This is one of the reasons why I don’t want him to know that I’m sick. He doesn’t know anything about my sickness yet, but he is already worried.

“I’m fine, Drystan,” I forced a smile on my face as I tried to sit up on my bed.

Nova rushed to my side to help me get up, but I refused to get her help since I was no longer in pain anymore.

“What is the Doctor doing here? Did something happen when I was gone?” Drystan asked us.

I laughed at his exaggerated reaction to stop him from worrying. “What do you mean? Didn’t you say that you tasked a Pack Doctor to monitor my health? I wasn’t doing anything so I called him in for a checkup,” I lied between my teeth.

“What did he find out? What happened?” My heart quickened its pace when Drystan turned to ask Nova a question.

Nova’s eyes widened as she locked gazes with Drystan whose face was

serious.

I crossed my fingers, hoping that she would do me a favor. “Astrid is fine and the baby is completely, alright,” Nova said the truth without saying everything.

My tense muscles slowly relax. I’m so thankful that she covered up for me. However, I don’t know how long that would last because Nova seems uncomfortable lying to Drystan.

Drystan sighed, releasing all the breath that he was holding. “That’s good, but you should always go for a regular check–up, okay?” Drystan asks me.

“I will,” I answered with a smile. “What did Killian

dead?” I turned anxious once again as hoped the believe that I’m

good news from him,

Drystan’s face turned serious once again when he heard my question. “He already left the Pack. I managed to convince him that you were dead, Drystan answered.

Seeing that he is no longer needed anymore, the Pack Doctor excuses himself and leaves us alone in the room.

I released a huge breath that I didn’t know I was holding wall of the heaviness in my chest slowly lifted up after I heard the news,

Finally, I no longer have any connections with Killian anymore. I could finally leave without the fear of my past catching up to me.

A new weight settled on my chest as I had those thoughts. Now that I have what I want, why don’t I feel as happy as I thought I would be?

“Why didn’t you tell me?Drystan asked me with disappointment in his voice.

I looked up at Drystan with surprise on my face. “What do you mean?” I asked him.

“Killian and Giselle,” Drystan paused and my heart skipped a beat. “How long they have been together?” He asks me,

I was silent for a moment. Nova glanced at me, not knowing what Drystan was talking about.

“Giselle just suddenly came back to our Pack just two months ago,” I muttered.

“Two months?” Drystan blurted out. “Why didn’t you tell me anything?”

I squinted my eyes in confusion. Why should I tell Drystan about my personal problems? Even if we were friends, I know he is already busy with his Pack matters. Why should I tell him about my relationship problems with Killian?

“You are Killian’s uncle. It doesn’t seem right for me to tell you those things,” I answered,

You are also my friend, Astrid. You should have told me something. I had no Idea that Killlan was not treating you well You should have told me. I could have helped you,” Drystan told me with an exasperated look on his face.

1 averted my gaze from him. I do not know what to tell him. It doesn’t seem right for me to include Killian’s uncle in our relationship problem.

“That bastard!” Drystan suddenly raised His voice and clenched his fist. “I couldn’t believe that he brought his pregnant mistress here,” he hissed,

My eyes turned back to him when I heard his words,

“What?Nova breathed out. “Killian has a mistress?”

“He does, his ex–girlfriend Giselle. He also made her pregnant,” Drystan answered her.

Nova’s jaw tightened when she heard this. “Where are they?” She asked in a cold voice. She looked like she wanted to chase after them to teach them a lesson.

“I told them to leave before I could do something I’d regret. Don’t worry, I punched Killian on the face before he left,” Drystan replied,

Nova’s anger wasn’t satisfied with Drystan’s words. She looked like she still wanted to avenge me.

I smiled as I looked at them feeling so overprotective of me. Having them by my side, I knew I had nothing to worry about anymore. My baby and I can do this together with them.

I guess Nova is very much like Drystan. Drystan is worried about me, while Nova wants to avenge me. Both of them care so much about me and I know that I can always trust them.
