“Yes, I sent a letter earlier. Did you expect me to leave an Alpha and Beta waiting at the border?” he admitted.
We left our horses at the last staircase and climbed up to get to the courtroom.
“Anything you say, Rihanna being my mate shouldn’t be one of them,” I told Jake in mind link,
“Sure,” he responded immediately.
“Ahh! I never knew a time would come when you’d ride to my pack wanting a favor!” Red Moon Alpha hollered when we walked in.
Jake smirked. “We might have saved you the trouble of riding, but it is you who would want a favor from us.”
The Red Moon Alpha frowned, replacing himself on his seat. He gestured for all his guards to move away, and they did.
We stood before him. Jake marched closer. “I found a relic which was peculiar to Black Rose. A Charmed necklace that made one unable to identify their mates.”
My brother took off the necklace on his neck and swung it around. The Red Moon Alpha didn’t seem comfortable seeing it.
“I just discovered from an old lady in my pack that it was once popular here in Red Moon, amongst the witches,” Jake continued.
Witches? I pulled Jake’s arm. “That’s a sensitive topic to speak of in front of their Alpha.”
Red Moon was once filled with witches who swapped people’s destinies; it was horrific. When Black Hills Alpha King had rid them of it, they signed themselves as one of their packs. It was wrong to speak of such dark times.
“I am getting somewhere with this,” Jake pulled his arm off me and threw the necklace at the Alpha, who shrieked, kicking it away.
“I believe your father told you, of a witch he asked a favor for,” Jake raised a brow. “The witch had used that relic to swap something.”
An Alpha asked a favor from a witch? I thought he was clear that no wolf ever collaborated with the witches?
“My father didn’t tell me of such a thing. What do you mean, Jake Justin! And what are you doing here exactly!” The Alpha pointed at me.
I wasn’t sure what I was doing there.
“Jake, get to the point, will you?” I asked him through mind link.
He cleared his throat. “I have reasons to believe and proof as well, that the former Luna Queen isn’t the actual mate of Alpha Wayne.”

Chapter 79
Ralph, who had been looking sleepily, suddenly widened his eyes. He turned to me. “What did he say?”
I bet he heard him right, only didn’t understand what he meant.
“Alpha Wayne’s mate is actually another poor lady somewhere. And Red Moon is responsible for that swap!” Jake barked.
Shivers ran through my spine. Alpha Wayne’s mate was swapped? The former Luna Queen wasn’t his actual mate? That was huge.
“What do you have to say to this?” Ralph shouted at the Alpha.
He gazed at the necklace, looking regrettable. “Why should I accept it? It is an accusation!”
“Oh really, what if I have someone that can reverse what you did to Alpha Wayne? Do you want that instead?” Jake asked.
“No!” the Alpha left his seat. He bit his lips, looking down. “Don’t reverse it.”
Ralph clenched his fists. “So it is true? You sent a daughter of Red Moon to the palace by collaborating with a
witch?!”
I couldn’t say a word. Shivers ran up and down my spine. I wondered Alpha Wayne’s reaction when he’d discover
this. And Chris’s reaction too. The world’s reaction. And if such a thing can be done, how was I sure my future
hadn’t been swapped before?
