Reclaiming My Broken Luna by Selene Souchon

Chapter 8: Family Ties

Astrid's POV

I groaned in pain when a pounding headache entered my senses as soon as I woke up.

I fluttered my eyes open and squinted in confusion when I found myself in an unfamiliar room.

I placed a hand on my head as I slowly stood up and looked around. For a moment I felt hazy until I blinked my eyes and collected myself together.

Soon enough, memories from last night flooded in my head, explaining why I was in pain, but it didn't explain where I was.

"Astrid." I looked up when I heard someone call my name. I came back to my senses when I saw Drystan enter the room.

"Are you okay? What do you feel?" Drystan asked me worriedly as he approached me.

Looking at him, I finally recognized the stranger last night before I fell unconscious. I couldn't believe that it was him and he saved me.

I openly stared at Drystan for I was too stunned to speak. I did not expect that I would see him this soon.
