Reclaiming My Broken Luna by Selene Souchon

Chapter 96: Real Friendship

Drystan's POV

"Drystan?" Alpha Theron spoke my name unsurely, his brows pinched together as he studied me.

I lowered my head in submission and reverence for him. I'm not sure what he feels about seeing me. I feel happy to see him after so many years. Of course, it might not be the same for him. It's not like I had anything to be proud of. He might find it embarrassing to let anyone know that he used to be friends with a loser like me, a man who calls himself an Alpha of a falling Pack. "It's really you!" Alpha Theron's tone turned excited when he spoke his next words, which surprised me.

I abruptly lifted my chin as I looked at him in surprise. I watched as he took confident strides towards me, and suddenly, he just wrapped his arm around me and hugged me.

"It's so good to see you again!" Alpha Theron spoke with a huge smile on his face. The wrinkles at the corner of his eyes deepened.

Still caught in surprise, I forced a smile and hugged him back while my heart pounded rapidly inside my chest.

My eyes ran to the people around us who were staring at us with wide eyes. They all stood in shock, just staring at us. Some of them even stared at us with their jaws dropped to the floor. Even Nova shared the same expression as them. He looked at me with complete bewilderment on her face while silently demanding an explanation from me.

Nova also had no idea that the Alpha of the Shadowfang Pack used to be my college friend.

I have never told anyone about this, not even someone in my family.

I gave Alpha Theron an uncomfortable smile when he took a step back and stared at me closely as he held me by my shoulders.

"You still look the same as I remember. How come you didn't grow old?!" Alpha Theron chuckled as he asked me.
