Chapter 9: Stranger

Killian's POV

It has been three days of restlessness, waiting for Astrid to come back and beg for my forgiveness. I wasn't expecting that she would even last for a day out there to realize her mistakes and eat back her words. She is too arrogant and prideful that she would rather sleep in the streets than admit her own mistakes.

I had sent a word to all of the surrounding Packs and told them that I would break my alliance with them if ever they allowed Astrid inside their Pack.

So far, all of them listened, they did not even allow Astrid to set foot in their Pack.

Now, I wonder where Astrid is staying at.

As the days passed by with no news of her, I hated to admit that I was getting worried about her. I had no idea where she had gone to hide, and I couldn't even contact her through the mind link.

"If you really want her to come back, why don't you just lower yourself and search for her instead? Nothing will happen if you just wait in here!" Liam, my wolf, screamed angrily inside my head.

Ever since Astrid had left, Liam had rarely talked to me. Whenever he does, he only says words to convince me to chase after Astrid.

No way in hell will I ever do that. Besides, I have already tasked my men to track Astrid for me. Astrid is not that special that I should chase after her.

Astrid needs me more than I need her.
