CHAPTER 21:SHE'S COMING.

Astrid's POV:

 My eyes lingered longer on the space Kael stood a couple of minutes prior, my mind lost in thoughts. The gerd in my head was running at full speed, planning strategies.

Being fully aware that the message I received earlier was going to change everything, I needed to be very prepared. Especially for the worst-case scenario. 

Something was coming, something huge and really bad, I could feel it in my gut, and I had to be ready just in case.

 

The fate of this baby and everything I care about rested on my shoulders, and I couldn't let them down.

I turned back to the sleeping baby. He looked so peaceful in his crib. My eyes softened as I watched him as he slept. I was filled with a mix of pity, fear, anxiety,y and lots of other emotions. 

 

This child and his mother were the key to something huge, something larger. I had to figure that out before it was too late. I had to keep him away from Thorne whilst at it too.
