Reclaiming My Broken Luna

: Real Friendship



Drystan's POV

"Drystan?" Alpha Theron spoke my name unsurely, his brows pinched together as he studied me.

I lowered my head in submission and reverence for him. I'm not sure what he feels about seeing me. I feel happy to see him after so many years. Of course, it might not be the same for him.

It's not like I had anything to be proud of. He might find it embarrassing to let anyone know that he used to be friends with a loser like me, a man who calls himself an Alpha of a falling Pack.

"It's really you!" Alpha Theron's tone turned excited when he spoke his next words, which surprised me.

I abruptly lifted my chin as I looked at him in surprise. I watched as he took confident strides towards me, and suddenly, he just wrapped his arm around me and hugged me.

"It's so good to see you again!" Alpha Theron spoke with a huge smile on his face. The wrinkles at the corner of his eyes deepened.

Still caught in surprise, I forced a smile and hugged him back while my heart pounded rapidly inside my chest.

My eyes ran to the people around us who were staring at us with wide eyes. They all stood in shock, just staring at us. Some of them even stared at us with their jaws dropped to the floor.

Even Nova shared the same expression as them. He looked at me with complete bewilderment on her face while silently demanding an explanation from me.

Nova also had no idea that the Alpha of the Shadowfang Pack used to be my college friend.

I have never told anyone about this, not even someone in my family.Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

I gave Alpha Theron an uncomfortable smile when he took a step back and stared at me closely as he held me by my shoulders.

"You still look the same as I remember. How come you didn't grow old?!" Alpha Theron chuckled as he asked me.

He just looked so happy to see me. I'm glad that the friend I had didn't change.

"Th-Thank you, Alpha," I answered formally.

My mouth turned agape when Alpha Theron suddenly pushed my left shoulder forcefully, taking me aback.

"Stop calling me Alpha, you nerd. It's like we weren't friends before," he spoke angrily, but looking at his face, he wasn't angry at me at all.

“Come on, man, relax. Your shoulders are so tense," Alpha Theron spoke casually as he pressed my shoulders.

I took a deep breath and shook my shoulders to relax, just as he had told me. With his casual treatment, I started to feel at ease. I feel like we are back to when we were still teenagers.

"How could I relax? I'm talking to the Alpha of the Shadowfang Pack. I still value my life and don't dare to

offend you," I spoke casually th"

time since Theron recognized me as a friend, not an Alpha of another Pack.

Alpha Theron chuckled. "It's been so long. I also missed the academy. While you're staying here, let's catch up with each other," he invited.

I smiled and nodded. I also feel the same too. I miss the academy, and I miss my friend much more. I'd also want to know what happened to him after we separated.

"I'm not going to stay here that long," I told him in advance. "Once Astrid is healed, we will go back to our Pack.

At the mention of Astrid's name, Theron turned around and gave another look at Astrid.

"She's the one who owns the bracelet, you say?" Theron asks, his face turning serious once again.

I slowly walked forward to approach Astrid. "She is," I answered. "It is as what I said in the letter. The bracelet was given as a gift by her grandmother when her mother died while she was little.

"H-her mother is dead?" he voice out under his breath. "How?" he asked me, his eyes still not leaving Astrid.

My brows twitched lightly at his question. "I don't know. I didn't know her yet when her mother died."

Theron didn't say a word. He continued staring at Astrid, just studying her face.

"Alpha, the physician is here," Beta Alek spoke from behind, interrupting our conversation.

When we turned around, the physician earlier that we saw when we arrived, their Pack walked in with a tablet in his hand. "Alpha," he spoke solemnly as he bowed his head.

"Speak," Theron ordered.

"Astrid is in critical condition, but she

will turn stable soon. There's nothing to worry about. The Shadowfang Pack is complete in medicine. We can give her the care that she needs. In just a few days, she will be awake soon," The Doctor explained, easing most of my worries.

"But Doctor, what about her wolf? Her previous Doctor told us that something was wrong with her wolf. What is happening to her?" I asked, hoping that whatever was wrong, the Shadowfang Pack had a way of fixing it.

S

"That I cannot say, Alpha, but we are already looking into it. We have already run tests for her. Once the results are out, we will inform you soon," The Doctor answered me.

"Do you know a thing called the Lunar Elixir?" Nova, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly spoke.

Everyone's eyes suddenly turned towards her in surprise. My brows just furrowed as I looked at her since I had no idea what Nova was speaking of.
