"What do you mean?" Rina asked him.
"You don't eat with the family either, most times you tell the help to make you another dish. Rafaele doesn't scold you so why does he have a problem with me?" Rain asked her. Rain was right, Rina thought to herself. Rafaele didn't scold Rita for her actions so it was normal for Rain to think it was okay. "But I am not as important as you to the family. The rest of them really miss you, I doubt they would miss me that much." she told him. He scoffed. "Want to bet? Miss breakfast today and watch Rafaele throw a tantrum." "If he doesn't throw a tantrum, you will eat meals with the family." Rina told him. "and if he throws a tantrum, no one will disturb me." Rain replied. "deal" she answered. She kept the food on the table and served food for both of them and they sneaked upstairs to his room. Rafaele came down, he expected to see Rita since she wasn't in the room. But she wasn't in the kitchen, there was food on the table but she was nowhere to be found. His mother entered the kitchen. "Mother, did you make this?" he asked. "No, I am just entering the kitchen, Rita obviously made it" "But where is she?" Jax walked into the kitchen. "What are we talking about?" he asked. "I don't know where Rita is." Rafaele looked worried. "isn't she in the room?" "No, she isn't" "Well maybe she doesn't want to eat breakfast with us today" Jax shrugged. He helped himself to the food and sat down to eat. Rafaele glared at him. "really, you want to eat?" he asked. "Why not?" Jax retorted. "And where is Rain?" Rafaele asked. "He is probably in his room" Luna Rosa suggested. Rafaele rolled his eyes and stormed out of the kitchen. "Where could he be going" Luna Rosa wondered. "To Rain's room" Jax told her. "Oh dear! He looks so angry, I should go there to make sure they don't have a fight" Jax stood up and led her to the chair. "sit down mother, you can't keep meditating between them, if they want to fight, let them fight". Jax told her. "But...." "No buts, maybe this would help their relationship" "You are right, but I am worried about Rita, I thought she was changing." "Mother, Rome wasn't built in a day. Rita will be fine, she still made breakfast today, that's a good sign" Luna Rosa sighed, "I just wish everything would be okay in this family, Rita will be a proper mate and Luna, Rain would act properly, Rafaele would stop getting so angry." Jax patted her hand. "Everything will be fine mother, I assure you of that" he told her. Rafaele opened the door of Rain's room. He was shocked to see Rain and Rita eating. "Can someone tell me what is going on?" he asked. "What does it look like? We are eating breakfast" Rita told him. "I can see that but why are you eating breakfast here rather than in the kitchen?" Rafaele asked them. "Is there any law that says we must eat with the family?" Rain asked him. "There is no law that states that but it's the proper thing to do" "Why?" Rain asked him. Rafaele resisted the urge to tear out his hair. "I am very busy as the Alpha of this pack and so is mother with the Luna duties, Jax is also busy with his beta duties. Mealtimes are the only time we see each other sometimes. If you decide not to join Mealtimes, how do I check on you to know how you are doing?" "But Rita never joined and you said nothing." Rain pointed out. "I know it wasn't ideal but we share a room together and I didn't think I should force her to join mealtimes but now I know better and I just want us all to join mealtimes as long as we are home." "If I join you all at the table, you won't nag at me all the time, right?" Rain asked. Rafaele smiled. "I won't nag at you, I will try my best" he assured his brother. "Fine, I will join the table" Rain said with a scoff. "And you?" Rafaele asked Rina. She smiled, "I will join the table too" she replied. "let's go down" Rafaele told her with a smile. Rain rolled his eyes and grabbed the plate. "I will be in the kitchen while you two make lovey dovey eyes at each other" Rafaele smiled as his brother went down. "Why are you even eating with him?" Rafaele asked Rina. She shrugged, "Well I thought I should keep him company and show him the importance of eating with someone" Rafaele reached for her hand and pulled her close to him. "You are full of surprises these days" Rina awkwardly tried to push him away. "We should go down, they are waiting for us." "I am sure they can wait for much longer." Rafaele told her. 'Oh goddess' this wasn't supposed to happen. All she was supposed to do was sit and look pretty. Rafaele released her. "Let's go then" he told her. She smiled awkwardly and fled the room. Rafaele shook his head in amusement and left the room as well. Breakfast went smoothly, Rafaele and Jax left to attend to the pack duties while Rain went back to his room. It was just Luna Rosa and Rina left in the kitchen. Rina busied herself with washing the dishes. "Rita dear, what are your plans for today?" luna Rosa asked. "I don't have plans today" "that's strange, you usually go out with your friends in the other pack" Luna Rosa observed. "Ah! I just decided to stay home, I don't feel like going out" Rina replied calmly even though she was panicked inside. Rita hadn't told her anything about hanging out with her friends. What if these friends came to look for her? What would she do?"Anyways since you don't want to go out, why not accompany me to the luna meeting" Luna Rosa proposed."What luna meeting?" Rina asked."the Lunas of the neighboring pack are planning the werewolf regional meeting, it's in a month time" Luna Rosa told her."a month time?""Yes, please come with me" Luna Rosa pleaded.Rina shifted uncomfortably, this was already passing the boundaries. Rita obviously didn't attend any of the Luna's meetings. If she agreed, wouldn't she be passing her boundaries?Rina sighed, she had already crossed a lot of boundaries and today was just the second day. What was one more boundary she couldn't cross.Besides looking at Luna Rosa's hopeful face, how could she say no?"I will come with you" she assured Luna Rosa."That's good news, I will leave in an hour, is that okay?""Yes it's okay" Rina assured her.Luna Rosa smiled at her and left the kitchen to get ready.Rina collapsed on one of the chairs.'what the hell was she doing?' she wondered.She was still
Luna Rosa was in full blown panic mode. What was Rita thinking, how could they host the werewolf meeting?Luna Tyra had always hosted the meeting, never giving anyone a chance.The Lunas had learnt to follow her lead. Why would Rita suggest such a thing especially knowing the feud they already had with Luna Tyra."What makes you think the Lunas would leave the normal ways of doing things to try your hosting?" Luna Tyra asked."and what makes you think the Lunas aren't tired of the old ways of doing things and want to try something new?" Rina fired back.The Lunas heads moved rapidly between Luna Tyra and Rina. This was the most entertaining thing to happen in a meeting so far."Okay, so what do you propose?" Luna Tyra asked."a vote, you tell us your plans for the meeting and I will tell you our plans too. The Lunas will vote on what they like best." Rina proposed."Okay, I hope after the voting, you will have no more objections." Luna Tyra told her, she was already at her wits end wi
Moonlight PackLuna Rosa and Rina had come back from the meeting."Hey mother, how did the meeting go?" Rafaele asked.Rafaele, Jax and Rain were in the kitchen eating sandwiches."How else do you think it would go, Luna Tyra would try to bully your mom and as usual she would announce she is hosting the regional werewolf meeting" Jax said with a chuckle."Is that how it went mom?" Rafaele asked."Not this time, Rita didn't allow her to bully me, she put Luna Tyra and her haughty daughter in place." Luna Tyra replied."Haughty daughter? do you mean Nani?" Jax asked."Yes, ever since the failed engagement thing, she and her mother have made it clear they do not care for me. But things were different, not only did Rita stand up for me, she also challenged Luna Tyra on the hosting.""She did?" Rain asked looking at Rina in admiration."Yes and all the lunas voted for us to host the werewolf regional meeting" Luna Rosa announced."What! how did that happen?" Jax asked."Sit down mother and
Early the next morning, Rina woke up and sneaked out of bed. It was time to leave.She looked at Rafaele who was still asleep. In a couple of hours, he would wake up expecting to see breakfast and his mate. Instead he would be met with nothing, unless by some miracle, her sister had changed.For some reason, her heart twinged of the thought of leaving him. She touched her cheast and rubbed it gently. She would be fine, she would go back to work, her home, everything would be fine.Rafaele would be fine and hopefully Rita would be fine too.She took one last look at him and left.Rina stood up at the meeting point for hours when she saw the rays of sunlight, she had to admit to herself that her sister wasn't coming.Rina grumbled and cursed Rita as she walked back to the packhouse. Two days! their agreement had been two days. Where the hell was Rita?As usual, her sister was been her selfish self, only thinking about what she wanted.She sighed as she opened the door to the pack house
Two days later...Rina was in the bedroom Pacing worriedly. Today was the fifth day and Rita was nowhere to be found.She didn't know how much longer she could maintain this charade. And she didn't know how much longer she could pull away from Rafaele.He had attempted to Kiss her thrice now and she had managed to deflect it to a kiss cheer instead.How much longer could she deny him until he got suspicious. After all to him, they were on good terms, so why would she deny him affection.Even worse! she and Rita shared the same cycle. Her fertile period would soon be here and Rafaele would expect them to have intercourse.What was she going to do then?And her job! She had taken a three day leave and they would already be expecting her.What the hell was she going to do?She didn't even know where Rita was, how could Rita be so selfish, stubborn and foolish?Didn't she know the risks if they were discovered. All their names would be ruined.There was a knock on the door and then it op
Later that day, Jax came with the witch, it seemed like he had been successful.Rina studied the witch, he didn't look as she had envisaged.She had imagined a tall, broad figure, instead Evena the witch looked frail like a little breeze would push him over."Thanks for agreeing to my request Sir, please help us and we will give you whatever you want."Evena smiled maniacally."What if I want your first born child?"Rina's heart skipped a beat. Was he a psychopath? She thought.Evena suddenly burst into laughter."I am just kidding and enough with the sir thing. Just Evena is okay"They collectively sighed in relief."So how may I be of help?" he asked.Rafaele explained the issue to him."It's quite simple to find her, since they are identical, they share a bond. I just have to tap that bond and trace her""Thank you a lot" Rafaele said gratefully, the others also echoed their thanks."Wait a minute! How identical are you two?" Evena asked."Very identical, they have the same appeara
As they walked, they saw a group of people gathered."What could be going on?" Evena murmured.They got closer and a man stopped them."Who are you and what are you doing here?" he asked, his face looked stern."This is a public area and we have every right to be here" Evena replied cooly."You might not be aware but this is currently a crime scene" the man told them."Crime scene? What happened?" Rafaele asked curiously. "A pack of rogue werewolves attacked some werewolves and burnt them alive" the man explained Rina felt a sense of foreboding. She broke away from the group and ran towards the scene. "Rita wait!" Rafaele ran after her along with the rest of the group. Rita got there and pushed to the front, ignoring the protests. And there it was, her biggest fear. A charred body with blonde hair and a gold necklace with the 'R' symbol. She touched her own necklace. And then the sharp pain engulfed her. She screamed as the pain engulfed her. Her twin was dead, the other part o
"Are you mad?" Rina asked her sister."Calm down Rina and think about it." Rita pleaded with her sister. "What is there to think about? You want me to go to your mate's house and pretend to be you for two days?""Yes, exactly. Come on, this isn't the first time we have done this, we did it all the time as children.""exactly we were children and we switched places for trivial things like school and to prank our parents. And it has been a long time since we did that. Rita, this is serious. Rafaele is your mate.""Rina, we are identical twins. Everything about us is the same. Even our wolves are identical, our footsteps and heartbeat are identical, our scent is identical. No one is going to know the difference.""But what is so important that we need to switch places. If you need to go somewhere just tell him. Do you need to lie and deceive him?""He can't know about this ever." Rita objected. "And why is that?""Because he would never allow it."Rina became suspicious. "Where are yo

Rina took the plate of food she had dished out for Rafaele to the room.What was she even doing? Why did she even care? From the little she had learnt about her sister and Rafaele, this wasn't something Rita would have done, so what was her excuse?She was just being a nice person, she decided.Today was already gone, tomorrow was the second day. Rita would come back and they would switch places.And she would put all these behind her.Rafaele was on the balcony. She stepped out with the food."What are you doing here?" he asked."bringing you food, you didn't eat anything at dinner." she answered."and somehow you care because.....""Because you are my mate and I don't want you going hungry, so here, take it" she stretched out the food to him.He took the food from her and sat down to eat it.She also sat down.They sat in silence while he finished his food."Rita, do you think I was too harsh with my mom?" Rafaele asked her.Rina was suprised at the question. "You are asking me?""Y
