Reclaiming My Broken Luna by Selene Souchon

Chapter 72: Paternal Identity

Drystan's POV

"Who do you think your father is?" I asked her, curious about her answer.

Astrid furrowed her brows, her gaze shifting inward as a thoughtful expression crossed her features.

"My mother is a pure-blooded omega, and I am too. Most likely, my father could be an omega from a different Pack, or worse, he could be a rogue or a criminal.

This is the reason why I sometimes think it would be best if I never met him at all. I will not know what to feel if I found out that my father is an outlaw with money on his head."

I chuckled at his far-fetched imagination. "I'm sure your father is not a criminal. You are thinking too much.

"Who knows? Maybe he's dead." Astrid retorted.

Suddenly, Astrid stopped in her tracks and faced me with an incredulous look in her eyes. "Wait a minute. How did our conversation turn out like this?"

I laughed to minimize her suspicions. "I also don't know, too," I answered lightheartedly.

"You are asking too many questions. What is it that you want to know?" Astrid narrowed her gaze at me suspiciously.

"Nothing, I was just curious. I figured out we've known each other for so long, but I knew nothing about your parents." "Exactly, we knew each other for so long. How come you are asking these questions just now?" Astrid shot back. "Don't worry, Astrid. I'm not planning to wipe out your whole family or anything," I gestured to stop her from getting serious. Astrid scowled at my unfunny joke.
