Reclaiming My Broken Luna (Astrid and Killian)
Chapter 97: Lunar Elixir

Drystan's POV

"Miss, this elixir that you speak of" The Doctor was about to answer Nova's question, but he stopped himself when Theron spoke on top of him.

"What do you wish to know about the Lunar Elixir?" Theron asked Nova calmly.

"Actually, Astrid had already seen a doctor before to replace out what was wrong with her wolf. The doctor said that it was some rare disease that afflicted her wolf, and only the Lunar Elixir could cure her," Nova replied. "A rare disease, you say? Don't worry, there's no disease that our Pack cannot cure," Theron answered.

"Please forgive me for speaking once again. Astrid's illness is not normal, and only the Lunar Elixir could cure her. If she doesn't get cured soon, she might die," Nova spoke with her head bowed down.

"You ignorant fool!" A loud voice filled the room, making our heads turn to where the voice came from.

We watched as a woman wearing a physician's uniform entered the room with a scowl on her face.

"The Lunar Elixir is our Pack's sacred treasure. How could you beg for it to save your friend's life," she added in an angry voice. "That woman's life means nothing compared to the legacy of the Shadowfang Pack." My brows furrowed as I stared at the woman who disrespected Nova in front of everyone, causing her to lose face. Who is she?

"Asha," Theron spoke coldly.

The woman finally stopped talking and faced Theron. "Father," she uttered as she bowed her head.

No wonder why she had the audacity to speak her thoughts in front of Theron. It turns out that this woman who is wearing a physician's uniform is the daughter of the Alpha of the Shadowfang Pack. She is not just a mere physician at all.

"You are speaking to my guests. Give them some respect!" Theron ordered his daughter angrily.

"My apologies," Asha spoke sincerely as she faced Nova and bowed her head to her.

Nova stared at Asha in shock. The daughter of the Alpha of Shadowfang Pack is bowing her head to her. She is afraid that she will offend her.

"No need," Nova spoke with wide eyes as she raised her hands to stop her.

"I cannot accept your bow. I should be the one apologizing instead. I shouldn't have said those words mindlessly. The Shadowfang Pack has shown us too much kindness already. It's shameless of me to dare to ask for your Pack's sacred treasure. I'm very sorry," Nova spoke fearfully when she realized she had offended Theron's daughter.

Asha just stood in front of her, unbothered. "I'm sorry if my words had also offended you," she added with genuine concern.

"I-It's okay," Nova stammered as she forced a smile to her face.

"Drystan, meet my daughter. I'm sorry that you have to meet her this way," Theron looked at me as he spoke.

"Asha, he is my friend from the academy." Theron turned to his daughter.

Asha smiled and approached me for a handshake. "Nice to meet you," she spoke.

As the Alpha's daughter, she walked and spoke with proper decorum even while she was angry.

"Nice to meet you too," I replied as I accepted her handshake.

Her hands were soft like a feather, a sign of how she was being treated as a princess. She also offered Nova a handshake. "Asha is the head of our research team and also our head physician," Theron explained to me, making me feel amazed.

I wasn't able to say anything in reply because Drystan had already turned his attention back to his daughter again.

"Where were you? Didn't I tell you to personally check on Astrid?" Theron asked his daughter with a straight face.

"I have done that, father. I just went to personally gather the results from her samples," Asha answered as she scrolled through her tablet.

I fell silent when I found out that Theron even personally tasked his daughter to take care of Astrid.

As the head physician and the head of their research team, she must have a lot on his plate already. She had to take care of a lot of projects and meet deadlines.

However, she is sparing her time and effort just for Astrid. I couldn't imagine the great inconvenience we had caused her.

"The results are out, and Miss Nova's words were right," Asha spoke after she brought down her tablet.

"Astrid's wolf is getting weaker and weaker. We have done tests, but we couldn't replace anything wrong. This is the first time I've seen a disease like this. Not only is this rare, but only Astrid has this kind of affliction."

I pursed my lips together as I listened to her words.

"Without the medicine we have

injected into her, Astrid wouldn't recover. Astrid can't be dependent on strong medicines for too long Once we stop giving her medicines, her wolf will die. We are not sure if we can preserve her life if that happens."

I gasped. "W-What does that mean?"

"There's a low chance that Astrid will survive after we take her off her medicines. Even if she survives, she will still lose her wolf," Asha answered solemnly.

My body felt numb when I heard the

news. Astrid had lost her son

ē

already, and now she's going to lose her wolf. How is she going to have the will to live if she loses everything that she has? en Narugi
