Reclaiming My Broken Luna by Selene Souchon

Chapter 149: Only Daughter

Asha's POV

Though my face remained impassive, inside, I simmered in anger. I couldn't believe that my father would still insist on giving his blood even though Andros and I were willing to go under the needle for him.

My father has grown weak with age. He is not the same strong and powerful man that he was before. The stress of handling a huge Pack has taken its toll on his body.

I'm angry at my father, who still insists on doing this, knowing how this could affect his health. As an Alpha, he has to keep all his strength to himself. With all the tasks he is in charge of, he desperately needs to be in good health all the time.

I moved with practised precision as I prepared the kit that I would be using. My father gave me a steady gaze. He's been staring at me for a long time without saying anything. His stare unnerves me the most because I'm secretly angry at him. "Dad, are you sure about this?" I asked him one last time as I held the needle in one hand after I had prepared everything.

"Asha, your sister is fighting for her life. How could I let her die when I have what it takes to save her life?" My father answered back.

"Dad, you know what will happen if Astrid is not your daughter, right? She would die as soon as your blood makes contact with her," I reasoned out with him.

My father fell silent for a moment. "Asha, you still don't believe that Astrid is your sister, do you?"

I felt guilty as soon as I heard his question. "Dad, for all we know, she could be a fraud. I am an expert in this field, father. Trust me, this doesn't make any sense. How could a weak person like her be your daughter?"

"Then, in that case, the more that we need to continue this," my father replied as he pinned me with his gaze. "If Astrid dies, then she's not your sister, and she gets her punishment of trying to fool us, but if she survives, then you will have no choice but to accept her because she is your sister."
