Chapter 17: Infidelity

Killian's POV

"Astrid is already right in front of you, Killian," Drystan answered me with a straight face. "What else should I show you to prove that Astrid is already dead?" Drystan asked me with disdain. I laughed at Drystan's words knowing that this was all a lie. "Have you forgotten, Drystan? Astrid is my mate, I will know it if she is really dead."

Even though Astrid had rejected me as her mate, I still had a little connection left with her because I did not accept her rejection. My wolf could still feel traces of connection with Astrid's wolf.

If Astrid was really dead, we would have known. We wouldn't even have the smallest connection that we have with her right now.

"It's normal for your wolf to be confused, Killian. I also lost my mate and it took me months for my wolf to accept that our mate is dead," Drystan answered.

I shook my head as tears pricked the back of my eyes. My whole body felt numb as I stared at Astrid's picture and on her urn once again. I couldn't accept it. I just couldn't accept that Astrid was dead.

If Astrid is still alive, I know Drystan will have no reason to hide that from me. He wouldn't go all the way and make a great effort to fool me and make me think that Astrid is dead.

"K-Killian," Giselle's voice trembled as she placed a hand on my shoulder to comfort me when she saw my difficulty. "I'm so sorry," she whispered with a sad look in her eyes.

Even though Astrid had tried to harm her so many times before. She never held a grudge against Astrid. She is still sad to find out that Astrid's dead.

As my world shattered around me, Drystan suddenly laughed at us while we were hurting at the news of Astrid's death.
