Contract With Alpha Logan

Chapter 153

Astrid POV

Fred’s reasoning was right, but I still hated that he hid such a big secret about me.

“Astrid,” Kylie said softly. “Please don’t be mad at Fred. He did what he thought was right.” She came to sit with me. “We went to your father’s pack and verified your heritage and only after that we talked to Fred about you.”

Shocked, my mouth dropped open. “You went to my dad’s pack?” Why didn’t they take me with them?

Kylie nodded. “Yes dear. Your father’s pack missed him greatly, and they didn’t know that he had married a human. No one knew of his whereabouts.”

Tears welled in my eyes. Why was my father so secretive about his mate? “D–did you tell them about me?” I asked, hope blooming in my chest.

“No…” she sighed. “I was afraid that they could come after you and probably kill you if they came to know that your mother was a human. We wanted to protect you. So I’d advise that we lie low for a while. However, when you’ve gained more confidence as a wolf, we can go there and introduce you to them” She rubbed my arm in an assuring manner. “But I have to warn you, the white wolves are a very private society. They’ll do everything to take you back because they look for their kith and kin and they protect them fiercely.”

Goosebumps lined my skin, and I shook my head as tears ran down my cheeks. Just a month back, I was just a human. A month later I wasn’t just a human–I was a werewolf and that too was a rare white wolf. Through my tears, I asked, “Why are white wolves so rare? I mean, what is wrong with them?”

She gave me a soft smile, cupping my cheek. “There’s nothing wrong with them, Astrid. White wolves come with special abilities. In ancient times, humans hunted them for their pristine white furs while the werewolves hunted them to take them as captives for their special powers. Some had magic, some were seers, while some white wolves were resistant to silver.”

A shudder ran down my body all the way to my toes. “Do I have a special power?” I asked, staring at her with wide eyes.
