Chapter 270: Loyal Attendant

Astrid's

POV

I moved quickly through the dimly lit hallways, my heart thudding inside my chest with each step.

I kept close to the walls, my eyes constantly scanning for ay signs of movement.

I had to make sure that no one sees me sneaking around. The last thing I needed is for someone else to find out what happened to Killian or question why I'm sneaking outside my room in the middle of the night.

My breath came out in short, shallow bursts as I neared the Omega's quarters. Thankfully, their quarters remained the same room. So it wasn't hard to look for them.

When I finally reached the door, I knocked softly, barely a sound, but it felt like thunder in the silence of the night.

My palms were clammy, and I glanced over my shoulder again, making sure no one had followed me.

It would be suspicious if someone caught me here right now.

Finally, the door creaked open, reveailing a young Omega woman. Her eyes widened when she saw me standing there.

"Miss Astrid!" she exclaimed in surprise, her voice louder than it needed to be.

I froze, panic flaring up inside of me as I pressed a finger to my lips. "Shhh!" I hissed, glancing nervously down the hallway to see if anyone overheard.

The last thing I needed was someone coming to investigate why I was here, knocking on the Omega's door in the middle of the night.

The Omega seemed to realize her mistake and immediately dropped her voice to a whisper. "I'm sorry,
