Reclaiming My Broken Luna

Chapter 46: Werewolf Assembly



Astrid's POV

I gazed at myself in the mirror, wearing an elegant sleeveless white dress that fitted my body like a glove, showing my curves in the right places.

A smile crept up my lips, like the person that I could see in the mirror. Even though I'm pregnant and my baby bump is showing already, I'm still able to maintain my fit body from before.

"You look too beautiful for a pregnant woman."

I turned on my heel when someone spoke behind me. I smiled shyly when I saw Nova standing on my doorstep, staring at me. I felt embarrassed getting caught ogling myself.

"You look stunning, too," I complimented her in her sparkling green dress that reminded me of Ariel's tail.

With her strawberry blonde hair, she looks much like a princess from a fairy tale.

"Are you ready?" Nova asks me as she steps inside my room.

I took another look at myself in the mirror and breathed deeply. The time flew really fast. I couldn't coop up inside my room any longer. I need to go out and meet the guests.

"Do you think they will recognize me?" I asked Nova as I looked at my face in the mirror, which still looked the same as before.

Nova scoffed at my question. She held me by the shoulders and forced me to look at her.

"Look at you? Who would recognize you?" Nova asked me with her eyebrows raised. "It's only been a few months, but you have changed greatly. I doubt that anyone would recognize you." Nova squeezed my shoulders.

I sighed, shaking away all my worries. That's right. In just a few months of staying at the Nightsong Pack, my appearance changed.

My tan skin, which I developed from staying under the sun for long hours because of Warrior training, had turned lighter because of less sun exposure.

Also, my cheeks had turned fuller, and I looked brighter than before because I now have a better work-life balance, unlike before when I had to work in a toxic environment with unreasonable hours.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Additionally, with my new hair color and haircut, I'm sure no one would look at me and think that I am the Luna Astrid from Silvermoon Pack who worked for long hours and was treated like a servant.

"It's okay, Astrid. You don't need to go out there. You can just stay here if you want to," Nova reminded me once again, but I shook my head, refusing to let my fears get the best of me.

I'm going to go out there and meet them. No matter what, I'm no longer going to be a coward hiding behind the Nightsong Pack and relying on the kindness that Drystan and Nova had shown me.

"Then, let's go now. It's better to arrive there early than to be fashionably late and gather all the people's attention on us." Nova cheered me up.

In order to hide my baby bump, I bought a personally tailored coat that would match my dress and put a shadow on my front, which would make my baby bump less visible. The coat is purposefully made to be too big for my size exactly for that purpose.

I draped my white oversized coat over my shoulders, taking away the attention from my baby bump instantly by forming shadows.

I didn't insert my arms in the sleeves, for it is designed to be worn like that. Even if I move or dance around, the coat won't easily slip off my shoulders.

Hand in hand, Nova and I entered

the venue together. I forced a smile on my face and regulated my breathing to enforce calmness on myself. My nerves were on the edge at the thought of meeting people and fearing that they might recognize me, but as I greeted more and more people and still none of them recognized me, I started to gain more confidence in myself, and slowly, my anxiety dissipated away.

"Lady Stella, right? It's so nice to meet you," a Luna greeted me with a hug.

I smiled over her shoulder as I wrapped my hands around her.

I know almost all of the Alphas and Lunas that we invited as guests here. I've met them all before, as in the previous Luna of the Silvermoon Pack. In fact, most of them I have contacted in person before.

It felt strange that they didn't recognize me. I think my hair and skin tone really made a great change in my appearance.

Maybe if they looked long and closely, they would have recognized that it was me.

"May I call on Stella, who is in charge of all the preparations? Without her, today's event would have been impossible. Let's welcome Stella Hart!" Drystan's voice blasted on the

I gripped the hem of my coat and forced a smile on my face when everyone applauded and turned their eyes on me.

My heart pounded inside my chest as I took steps near the stage. As the person who prepared everything, of course, Drystan has to mention my name as Lady Stella and give all the credit to me for making this event possible.

"Thank you, everyone," I spoke on the stage, making everyone feel quiet.

I swallowed hard as my eyes involuntarily roamed around the room as if searching for something.

The event had already started, but I still hadn't seen him.

As if someone was reading my thoughts, the person I was looking for finally arrived.

My body stilled as I stared at the man standing by the entrance.
