Reclaiming My Broken Luna by Selene Souchon

Chapter 126: Dignified Stranger

Astrid's POV

I closed my eyes as I savored the earthy, floral scents that wafted through the air as Nova and I strolled through the winding garden garden Path of the Shadowfang Pack's manor.

Instead of a Packhouse, they call this place where their Alpha lives as a manor instead because this is his personal home.

The Shadowfang Pack is located on two conjoined mountains with a lake in the middle. Despite their unique and difficult landscape, they were able to build big structures in their area, and they are even able to plant gardens as wide as this. I smiled as I admired the various flowers planted in the area, which I couldn't name because I lack knowledge when it comes to flowers, and gardening and plants entirely.

I just knew that it must have took them a lot of effort to cultivate such healthy and lush plants especially in this difficult are that they have.

Flowers like this, don't usually grow on rocky soil at the steep mountain grounds. For them to grow like this, it has to be well taken cared of so that the Alpha and his family will have a place to enjoy themselves in.

"Ahhh!" Nova exhaled relaxingly behind me. "How long has it been since we went out for a walk?" Nova asked me, with her eyes still on the flowers around us.

She held a basket tightly in her hands since we were planning to cut some flowers to add color in my room. The gardener said that we could do that as long as we don't take too much.

Although Nova and I has been staying in the Shadowfang Pack for too long, we were mostly confined inside the four corners of my room since I was too weak and even too tired to do anything else.

Now that I'm getting therapies and also proper medication, I finally found the desire to go outside my room and explore around the place where we've been staying in until this garden caught our attention.

Nova walked closely by my side with a smile on her face as she stared up at me. Even though she never said a word about it, I think she's happy to see my spirits restored, that I no longer sulk inside my room and I'm finally starting to go outside more.
