Reclaiming My Broken Luna (Astrid and Killian) novel Chapter 188

Asha’s POV

My chest heaved as I entered the confines of my bedroom, my lips drawn back in a feral snarl.

I couldn’t believe that my wise and powerful father would be tricked by that woman. Even my brother was manipulated by her. How could they not see that woman has evil plans going on in her mind?

She lied about everything. She acted like she did not want to have anything to do with us, but the moment she was presented with an opportunity to become a formal part of this family, she did not even hesitate to say yes.

How could my father fail to see through that woman? Even if she was his daughter, we cannot just allow her to trick us into getting what she wants.

She had only been staying in our Pack for two months, but she had already managed to convince my father to make her our Pack’s acting Beta.

Now, she had finally convinced everyone to officially welcome her into the family.

Astrid is clearly trying to make her way to the top. If this continues, she might even steal the Alpha position from my brother.

My eyes turned ablaze with fury as I snatched everything within my reach — books, pillows, clothing — and hurled them onto the floor as the intensity of my rage cackled inside the room.

My brother, instead of siding with me, he sided with that woman instead. My brother is too naive. Isn’t he afraid that Astrid would turn into a threat in the future?

My arm hung in mid-air when someone suddenly knocked. I dropped my hand, my chest still heaving as I stared at the mess I’d made.

“Asha, can we talk?” I heard my brother’s voice at the other side of the door.

I didn’t answer. I’m not in the mood to talk to anyone. However, he still twisted my door open and entered without my permission.

I was so deep in my anger earlier that I forgot to lock my door close.

“Asha,” my brother mentioned my name carefully.

I whirled around, ready to unleash my fury on him for entering inside without my permission, but when I saw my brother’s face etched with concern, the fire in my veins momentarily died down.

“I don’t like her. I just can’t accept her,” I finally confessed to him. “She already had our father wrapped around her finger and now she had won your heart too.” Hot tears stung the back of my eyes.

My brother used to have my back no matter what, but just earlier, he took someone else’s side and tried to rein me down for the first time.

Andros squeezed my hand in his as he tried to calm me down. “I’m sorry that I made you upset, Asha. No matter what you will always be my little sister. It will always be my job to protect you and be there for you,” Andros spoke softly as he stared straight through my eyes.

The tears that I’ve been holding back finally fell out of my eyes when I heard his response.

“Even if I have a thousand sisters out there, you will always be my little sister that I grew up with,” my brother adds, fully winning my heart.

Unable to hold it back anymore, I jumped into his arms and hugged him, then he hugged me back.

“Stop crying Asha and stop trying to talk father out of his decision. Astrid is still our sister by blood.” My brother whispered over my shoulder.

I pulled back when I heard his words. I shook my head as I locked gazes with him. “Even if she is our sister, we do not have the same mother as her. Our mother is the Luna of this Pack, she shouldn’t share equal rights as us.”
