 Astrid POV 

When Ellen said Axel was in trouble, I didn't think he would be dying when I found him almost dead from a deep sweat head dive. I was so angry at Damon for putting him at risk for his own selfish gain. Liam locked away those memories to protect Axel for a reason. He didn't need to remember meeting his father and grandfather. His father disowned him and Ellen removed his Alpha's title and stripped him of his family ties. I needed to find him before Axel did. I'm stronger and faster. I could kill him. Axel would never forgive himself if he killed his own father, even if he did deserve it. 

"Astrid, you can not kill Axel's father. You would start a war, and Axel doesn't need you to fight his battles. He is Alpha now. He needs to find his own way." 

"No one was asking you, Lucy. Keep this up, and I will keep you locked up for good."

"Well, I would like to see you say that to Liza. She would put you in your place so fast."
