Rafael's POV:
When I mentioned her former pack, I could feel Astrid stiffen next to me.
"Why there?" Astrid asked.
I pulled over in the bushes and decided now was the time to tell her everything.
"Little Dove, Astrid, I want you to listen to me without interrupting and with a clear mind, okay?" Astrid simply nodded.
I sighed, turned to face her, and forced her to face me. I'd been meaning to tell her for a long time, and I didn't want to take her there without telling her anything.
"Do you recall when your brother and Edward got the ceremony a few weeks ago?" I got begun.
"Yes, and we did a good job in showing them their places" She giggled.
That took me by surprise. Astrid was pleased with something I did.
"We did. You should have seen their expressions at the time." She laughed, which relieved the tension between us and gave me the confidence to tell her what I wanted.
"True," she laughed.
