Chapter 16: Astrid is Dead

Drystan's POV

"ASTRID! I know you are hiding here, Astrid! Come out this instant!"

Killian's voice rang inside the packhouse as I walked down the stairs to meet him.

As soon as I saw his face, my blood boiled in an instant. How dare he cause a scene here in my Pack and pretend that he really cares about Astrid after he sent his men to kill her? Isn't this what he wanted? To see her dead? His audacity baffles me.

I locked gazes with Killian as I approached him. Our pack guards held him back, stopping him from entering the Pack.

He stopped fighting against the guards and forcing himself to enter when he saw me coming.

"You!" Killian's face was red in anger as he pointed his hand out at me. "I know you are hiding Astrid. Show her to me now!" Killian demanded.

I scoffed in disbelief as I approached him. What game is he playing now?

"Don't worry Killian, your wish had already come true. Astrid is dead and she's never coming back," I told him, knowing that he only came all the way here to confirm if Astrid is really dead.

Hearing my words, the muscles in his jaw tightened and his eyes narrowed into slits. "That's not true!" Killian shouted. "You think I would believe that?"

"If you don't want to believe me, then see it yourself," I answered.
