After that day and after having that conversation with Lucas, Astrid began noticing a lot of changes in him, even after a few days has passed, he became so cold towards her and yelled at for any slight mistakes. He hardly pays any attention to the triplets and they didn't fail to notice the change since he now scolds them a lot and this was something he never does before. Everything just changed and turned for the worse.Each time she tries to leave, even if it was to go get some groceries, Lucas would never agree to let her leave the house and even if he was going to let her go, she isn't allowed to leave the house alone and he'll make sure she goes with a guard or two and sometimes it's Beta Drake who goes with her, it's more like she's now a prisoner in the palace and her every move is being monitored.Everything was just so weird and she couldn't even understand anything that's happening, he's even stopped the triplets from going to school and when she confronted him about it, he
The next day, Astrid decides to confront Lucas, so when he returned from work, she went straight to his office at home to see him, but before going to Lucas, she had reached out to Crystal and informed her about everything, and against Crystal's warnings, Astrid still decides to go see Lucas. When she got to his office, she knocked on his door."Who's there?" Lucas questioned from inside."It's me Astrid, I need to speak to you." "I have nothing to say to you, so leave!""Well I have something to say and I'm coming in." She fiercely replied and without saying anything else, she opened the door and walked in.Lucas raised his head from the documents on his table, from the look on his face, one could tell he was annoyed."What do you want Astrid?" "What's with you Lucas? I don't understand you these days and it clearly looks to me like there's more than just me exacting revenge on Kai so tell me what it is?" Astrid questioned daringly.At first, Lucas had no expression on his face, bu
Lucas went to grab a chair that was in the room, then he carried it to where Astrid was seated on the floor, he kept the chair in front of her before taking a seat."So, you want to know why I haven't gotten rid of you all these while and kept you close to me for many years?" "What the hell are you talking about!?" Astrid seethed, breathing heavily.Lucas chuckled softly. "You really have no idea of what you truly are and the kind of power you hold." He replied, causing a huge frown to appear on Astrid's face."Let me tell you about what you really are....''"I never knew you were a lucky wolf until the day you had your first shift and I saw the color of your fur, a wolf like you is truly rare Astrid and if words gets out about you, many people will come for you and it's not going to be for good." He started. "Have you ever wondered why your wolf's coat is golden and has silver streak?" He asked, but Astrid said nothing because she's never really thought about why her wolf's color wa
When they arrived at the wild crest pack, it wasn't easy getting inside the palace since the guards wouldn't let them in, so they had to fight their way in, leading to so much death and bloodshed.When they've successful won over the guards and went inside, they searched everywhere for Astrid and Lucas, but they were nowhere to be found in the palace."Damn it!" Kai screamed in rage."Calm down Kai, we'll find her, that's for sure." Dan comforted."There's no time to waste, I should have known that damn man would switch locations." Kai spat."What do we do next?" Crystal asked.They all had blood stains on their clothes and face."I know Astrid scent so well, I can find her by tracking down her scent." Kai replied, then he ran outside while the others trailed behind him.They all dashed into the woods, following Kai's lead.Meanwhile, Lucas had successfully gotten Astrid to shift into her wolf form, she was a huge and lovely wolf with golden fur and silver streaks on her fur.He had a
Everyone is already back at the pack and Kai and Dan are back to their human form and now putting on clothes. Astrid wanted to see the triplets immediately before doing anything else, so the trio went upstairs to the room they had kept the triplets and a maid to watch over them.When they got to the room, the sight that met them was something they never expected.The maid they had left in charge of the triplets was lying dead on the floor, drowning in a pool of her own blood and the triplets were nowhere to be found."K...Kai." Astrid stuttered, staring at the dead maid in shock.There was a note lying beside the maid and she hurriedly went to pick it up, she opened it up and it was note written to her, telling her that the triplets were going to die if she didn't leave Kai alone.Astrid covered her mouth as hot tears streamed down her cheeks, she could clearly recognize the owner of that writing.Kai and Dan rushed to her side, he took the paper from her and when he read it, his face
Astrid had just arrived at the location Kathryn sent to her, she got down from the car and looked around, but there was no sight of Kathryn or her kids anywhere. She was about calling her with the same phone from earlier when she finally saw her.Astrid didn't wait for Kathryn to get to her, she ran to her instead."Where are my kids Kathryn?'' She asked.Kathryn rolled her eyes at her. "First thing first, did you come alone?" She asked while looking around."Of course I did." Astrid replied with a straight face."Good, now come with me." Kathryn ordered."Where are my kids!?" Astrid impatiently asked."If you want to see them then you'll come with me." Kathryn replied with gritted teeth, already feeling extremely pissed.Astrid didn't say anything else after that, she quietly went with Kathryn. Kathryn took her to where the kids were."Mommy!!" The triplets screamed on seeing her.Astrid immediately ran to them and hugged them tightly. "Oh goodness, thank the goddess you three are al
A few days has passed and things seems to be more stable, Astrid was now living her best life in the shadow claw pack with her mate and kids. She already introduced Kai to the triplets and told them that he was their real father, not Lucas. Obviously, the kids had a lot of questions to ask, she and Kai did their best in explaining to their understanding, although the kids would never fully get the story until they are all grown up, but they loved Kai so much already and accepted him with open arms. Crystal and Kieran had also come to pay them a visit. The kids reaction on seeing Kieran was priceless, they mistook him for Lucas and everyone couldn't resist laughing that day, but then they made them understand that Kieran wasn't Lucas, but his identical twin brother, they also used them as an example, since they were also identical, and that cleared up their confusion. Currently, Astrid was in bed sleeping, but her sleep got interrupted when she perceived the aroma of the food Kai had
*Astrid's POV*I sat on the edge of the bed, my heart pounding hard in my chest. Anxiety gnawed at me as I waited for the doctor to reveal the results of my tests. The scent of antiseptic hung heavily in the air, heightening my uneasiness.Dr. May entered the room with a warm smile. And from the look on her face, I bet she could sense my apprehension. Sitting down across from me, she clasped her hands together and spoke softly.“Congratulations Luna, you're one month pregnant!” “What!?” I yelled in shock as I stood up.I literally couldn't believe it, a great feeling of relief coursed through me. This all seemed like a dream to me, I've been trying to get pregnant for such a long time, I've literally lost all hope in ever getting to be pregnant and now this has happened.“Are you being serious, doctor? T.. this isn't a joke, right? Am I truly pregnant?” I questioned in tears.“Yes Luna, this isn't a joke or a dream, you're pregnant!” Doctor May replied with a huge smile on her face,

The triplets ran to hug Astrid, still holding some of the gifts Lucas bought for them, after excitedly telling their mother about the many gifts Lucas brought with him, they then went to hug Kai.Astrid looked at Lucas and from the look on his face, she could tell he was so upset to see her with Kai.Lucas didn't even bother saying anything because if he were to talk, then he's going to seriously loose it and he wouldn't want the triplets to see that side of him, so he simply went upstairs to his room, silently boiling with rage.Astrid sighed deeply, she's going to need to speak to him. She turned to Kai and saw him playing with the triplets who were so excited about their new toys, the beautiful sight before her brought so much joy to her heart and she couldn't even resist smiling as she watched them with so much love and admiration in her eyes. Soon, she's going to have to tell the kids about Kai being their real father, she can't continue keeping the truth from them, she couldn't
The guards escorted Kathryn out of the pack, while Dan took the Doctor away, everyone left, leaving just Astrid and Kai.Kai looked at Astrid, she only met his eyes for a second before looking away, it's so obvious that she must be feeling so bad right now and Kai wanted to use that to his advantage.He felt the strong urge to talk to her but he managed to control himself, he didn't say a single word to her but turned around to leave.When Astrid noticed he wanted to leave, she ran to stand in front of him and grabbed his hand."Kai wait!'' She said. Kai paused, then he turned his back to her, not wanting to look at her face."I...I'm so sorry for doubting you and saying those mean words to you, I know you're probably upset with me right now and maybe even hate me but—"Kai sharply turned around and placed his index finger on her lips to keep her from speaking."Upset, not really, but hate, how can you even say that? How can you even think for one second that I will hate you Astrid? T
