Chapter 23: Surprise Party

Astrid's POV

"Surprise!" My heart melted when Nova removed the blindfold from my eyes and revealed a surprise party for me.

I closed my mouth in shock and my eyes teared up when I saw what they had prepared for me.

"What is this?" I asked Nova with an overjoyed look in my eyes.

I thought Nova had just personally prepared something little to lift my spirits when she told me that she was going to show me something.

I knew it was something special when she had to put a blindfold around my eyes, but I didn't expect that she had gathered all the members of the Pack together and prepared a huge party for me.

"It was Drystan's idea to surprise you," Nova smiled at me making my mouth fall open.

My eyes blinked as I thought of Drystan preparing all of these. I couldn't believe that he'd been planning something like this behind my back.

"Drystan," I muttered his name breathlessly when I finally noticed him coming towards me from the crowd. "You don't have to do this, it's not even my birthday," I told him.
