My Miracle Luna
Chapter 88

{Wyatt's

P.O.V.}

It's been a week since the newborns were brought to my pack, and they have all settled in nicely. Justin ended up finding his mate as well, and it turned out to be none other than Jason's sister, Tasha. Jason wasn't too keen on his sister having a mate that's a newborn, but there was nothing he could do. His mom was overjoyed, and his dad was more than accepting of him. Even Milan wasn't on his side. Tasha moved out of the castle to live with Justin in his cottage.

Things seem to be going smoothly with the guards and their new mates, and almost the entire pack has accepted Megan as the new Luna. We still haven't gotten around to her Luna ceremony, but she keeps putting it off, and for the life of me, I couldn't figure out why. I made a note to ask her when I got home from the office today.

As I was packing up to go home, I got a call from Kendrick, "Hello?"

"You need to get home, now," "What's going on?"

"Dude just f*****g get home!" he shouted and hung up. I looked at the phone, and he actually hung up. Kendrick has never done that before, so I was curious to see what had him all worked up. I packed up my things and left the office.

It took an hour to get home, and when I pulled up to the gate, the guards were looking at me like they had seen a ghost. I drove in and made my way to the roundabout in front of the castle, and when I got there, Kendrick was waiting for me, and he was pacing. Before I could even get out of the car, Kendrick pinned me against the car,

"We have a serious problem!" he growled at me.

"Wh...Whoa!" I couldn't even say the word before he was dragging me into the castle, up the stairs, and into my office. When I got there, everyone was in my office and they were all looking at me with shock, confusion, and some even anger? "What's going on?" I asked.

"Hi, Wyatt," I heard an all too familiar voice. I looked past everyone, and I saw Megan at my desk, but it was who was across from her that got my attention. "Wh...Ry...Rylee?!" Megan looked at me with so much confusion, as well as everyone else.

"Hi," the imposter Rylee smiled at me. I walked past her and next to Megan, and Rylee's facial expression darkened. "I guess I've missed a lot since I left," she said. Now I understood why everyone looked at me like they had seen a ghost and was so confused. "Rylee, I don't understand, why are you here? How are you here?" I asked while looking down at Megan, who is the real Rylee in disguise.

"After I left, Lorenzo and I had nowhere to go, so we ended up splitting up. I went to Washington and hid out there for the last several months. I had no plans on returning, especially not after the way you treated me, but then I heard a rumor that Blue Lake had a new Luna," she said and glared at Megan. "So, I decided to come and check for myself. A few of the Omegas told me that you even had an affair with her that produced a pup,"

"Rylee...l,"

"I also wanted to see if you're still missing your memories or not," I just looked at her and couldn't say anything. "I'm going to assume from your lack of response that you still don't remember me,"

"Everybody, out," I tell the room, and they all just stand there. "I SAID OUT!" I boom with my Alpha tone, and everyone leaves. "Megan, you too,"

"But,"

"Please, Tink," she scowled at me and then left with the others. As soon as the door closed, I went and locked it. How the hell was I going to explain this to everyone? {Megan's P.O.V.}

I don't think I had ever been more confused in my entire life. The fact that I was staring at someone who looked exactly like me, sounded like me and even had Wyatt's mark on her. How the hell was this possible when I'm standing right here? I mean, yeah, I look like Megan, but I'm the real Rylee.

"Dude, what the f**k?" Jason said as were all gathered in my office.

"I don't understand, how is that girl in Wyatt's office Rylee, when she's technically right there!?" Grace said pointing at me.

"This has to be dark magic at play again, that's the only explanation," Kendrick said.

"But, Layla is dead," Melody replied. "Unless there's another crazy a*s b***h that he f****d that wants to ruin everything,"

"Megan, could you sense anything from that...Thing... in there?" Kendrick asked me. I just shook my head.

"Her mind was clear, and she no other thoughts, and Wyatt seemed to be just as confused as all of us," I replied.

"Where the hell did this... Imposter come from?" Milan asked and no one could say anything.

"I seriously hope this isn't a dark magic prank from Svetlana, I will kill the old hag," Melody said.

"No, I don't think it is. Svetlana may be a dark witch, but she hasn't done anything to us since she first came to Wyatt. She's been straightforward with us ever since, so we have no reason to distrust her...Yet," Kendrick said.

All of us just stayed in my office trying to figure out what exactly is going on and how someone who looks exactly like me just showed up like this. Wyatt was in his office for a good hour before he came to find the rest of us. "Where's the fake Rylee?" Kendrick asked.

"In the guestroom across the hall, the one she... I mean Megan...I mean... Ah f**k, you know what I mean," Wyatt mumbled. "She's in the guestroom,"

"Wyatt, what is going on?" I asked

"I don't know, but I get the feeling that Svetlana has something to do with it,"

"Wyatt, Svetlana has done nothing to antagonize us or give us a reason to distrust her," Kendrick repeated himself.

"Then how the hell do you explain the fake Rylee!?" Wyatt asked.

"Something's not right though, she said she was in Washington this whole time, and that she and Lorenzo split up. But you said that she has been with him the entire time she was gone," Jason said.

"Yeah, I would know, I mean, the real Rylee is right there," Wyatt replied while pointing to me. "Look, we need to keep a lid on this. Only those in this office, as well as, Angelo, Michelle, Darius, Kelsey, and Dr. Andrews know the truth. Everyone else in the pack is going to assume that the imposter Rylee is the real Rylee,"

"What do we do?" Melody asked.

"Act like Megan isn't Rylee, and the imposter is. When I talked to her, she seemed to know everyone and the fact that Dot and Michelle had pups. She doesn't know their names or didn't at first, which matches when Rylee left the pack. Whatever she knows is up to that point, even everything that I did to her, or you," he said pointing at me. "We have played this through until we can figure out what the hell is going on," everyone nodded their heads. "And you," he said to me. "Try not to fight with yourself," he said and I made a confused face.

No one had any other options, so we agreed to play dumb with the fake me. When we opened the office door, and the fake me was waiting while standing against the wall.

"I see you even gave my office away," she said while staring daggers at me.

"Rylee, I thought I asked you to wait in the guest room," Wyatt said to her. She just scowled at him. Even her attitude was the same as mine.

"Wyatt, I get that I left of my own free-will, but I'm back now, and I want to take my place as your Luna,"

"WHAT?!" everyone shouted.

"Why is everyone so shocked?" she asked innocently. Goddess, I wanted to strangle her.

"Rylee, you gave up that right when you rejected Wyatt," Ronan said to her. Wait, did that really mean I couldn't be Luna anymore? Or is he just saying that to this fake Rylee? Oh my god, I was so confused.

"So, this girl just gets to take my place?"

"Rylee, I've marked her, and she gave birth to my son. Legally, only she can be the Luna," the fake me looked at Wyatt with so much anger and hatred. It almost as if she could really feel. Who was this imposter? Then her eyes focused on me. That's when I felt it. She was powerful, and I could feel my powers emitting from her. How the hell was this possible? She turned her heel and went into the guestroom, slamming the door. She slammed it so hard, it shook the hallway.

"What the hell?" Jason said. "Did anyone else feel the Alpha aura coming from her?"

"How is that possible!?" Kendrick asked and we all looked to Wyatt and he seemed to be in a daze. He was just as lost and confused.

"Dude, this is going to confuse a lot of f*****g people," Kendrick said, and we all just nodded. {Imposter Rylee's P.O.V.}

After making sure that Megan knew I didn't like her, I came back into the guestroom. I waited and made sure that the coast was clear and peeked my head out of the room. I came back in and locked the door. I opened the window and waited. A few minutes later, the person I was waiting for emerged,

"Well?"

"He doesn't remember me, and you were right, he did replace me," I responded.

"We knew that there was a chance,"

"I know, but it hurts,"

"I know it does, but we need you to be here. It is essential that you are here if you want our plan to work," I nodded my head. "What about the other woman?"

"What about her?"

"Do you sense anything from her? Did she say anything to you?"

"Not really. She seems, ordinary. How did Wyatt go from me, a powerful Primordial, to a plain wolf? I mean, where did he even meet her?"

"I don't know, but the important thing is that you are here, where you belong. You know what you have to do right?"

"Yes, I need to use my powers on her and used them in full force,"

"Good, that is the only way we can get Wyatt to believe that you are really you and that this other girl is merely a roadblock,"

"I understand,"

"Good," he smiled at me and then left the same way he came. After he was gone, I closed the window, and settle down into the bed. Wyatt doesn't want me wandering around yet. He doesn't want me to cause confusion and drama, which I think is stupid, but then again, he doesn't even remember me, so I'm not surprised.

I let out a deep sigh, and just laid down on the bed and curled up to take a nap. Traveling all this way just to be practically ignored took a lot out of me. I thought about the girl Megan, the one who took my place, the one Wyatt took as his chosen mate when his destined one is still alive. I just scoffed at the thought. What was so great about her? And why couldn't I read her thoughts? It was almost as if she had a block up, but that's not possible. My power of telepathy should be able to pierce through anyone's mind. I was going to have to find a way around it. Something about her was off.

I took a deep breath and thought about the plan that my master told me. It had to be done.

{Unknown P.O.V.}

I was patrolling the pack grounds and trying to train one of the newcomers. I was surprised when our Alpha came back with a bunch of newborns, but when he explained who they were, everyone was very welcoming. I couldn't believe what Halfmoon did. I mean, they were already on my s**t list when I found what they did to the Silver Lake heir. Who takes a child and turns them into a child slave?

"Hey, you seem to be deep in thought," I turned to see Brent, one of the newborns that Alpha Richard brought back with him.

"Sorry, I was thinking about Halfmoon and all of the s**t that they did,"

"Oh, I'd rather not be reminded,"

"Sorry, kid. I can't even begin to imagine what you went through. But look on the bright side, now you have abilities you never once had, and now you have a chance to find a mate,"

"Yeah, I've been meaning to ask, what is a mate? I keep hearing people talk about it, but Alpha Richard never went into detail. Even my friend Kelsey who went to Blue Lake found her mate," I explained what mates were to him, and he listened very intently. He was even more interested when I told them that s*x with one's mate is the best pleasure one could ever experience and that alone got him pining for one.

"Mates are special, but sometimes, your mate can reject you, and then you have a choice, accept the rejection and move on, or don't and live with heartache for the rest of your life,"

"Damn, that's rough. Why would someone reject their mate?"

"Many reasons and most are selfish. That's typically why most that do the rejection will never get a second chance. Hell, even the ones that on the receiving end don't get a second chance. Take me for example,"

"What happened to you?"

"I met my mate about a year ago, and she was the most beautiful girl I had ever seen. She had medium brunette hair, brown eyes, the most kissable pink lips, and the body of a Victoria Secret angel. She was just above average height and lean too," "Let me guess, she rejected you,"

"Yeah, but not in the traditional sense,"

"What do you mean?"

"She didn't reject me right away,"

"So, what? She played you?"

"Pretty much. We met at a club for werewolves, and I swear, her beauty sucked my soul right out of my body. We went to a nearby motel by the club and did the deed. We talked a bit, but I was too drunk to remember what we talked about. I know I told her I was a guard here at Golden Moon, but I honestly don't remember her name. We f****d for hours, and I swear, I was in love. But, when I woke up the next morning, I was alone, and in her place was a note," "What did it say?"

"She said that she didn't want an Omega as a mate and that what we did would never happen again. She wrote her rejection on paper, but never once put her name, so it wasn't a true rejection," "What happened to her?"

"Honestly?" Brent nodded his head. "I know for a fact that she cheated on me, at least twice, but about a month ago, I felt something even more painful than her cheating,"

"What could be more painful than that?"

"Her dying,"

"Oh...I'm sorry,"

"It's okay, it just wasn't meant to be I guess," we stood there in silence for a minute, and then finally did our rounds again. Brent was a quick learner and I felt that he would make a great guard for our pack. As we were coming back around to our original spot, the Gamma came up to us.

"Chad, the Alpha wants to see you,"

"Gamma, I'm on duty, and Brent is in training,"

"Don't worry, I'll take your place while you go see him. He said it's important,"

"Sir," I nodded my head to Brent and excused myself. I made my way to the Alpha's study where there were a few other guards outside of his door.

"Hey Chad, you too?"

"Yeah," I replied looking at the four others. "What's going on Maverick?" I asked our head guard.

"No clue, but the Alpha has been calling in guards a few at a time for the last few weeks. I think we're the last of them,"

"Have you noticed he only called in the ones that are single and unmated?" Travis asked. We looked at each other and sure enough, none of us had mates. I was about to say something when the door opened and there stood the Beta. "Sir!" we all saluted.

"Gentlemen, please come in," he opened the door for us, and we all bowed our heads to Alpha Richard.

"Richard, these are the last of the unmated guards," the Beta said to him.

"Gentlemen, I have some information from another Alpha that required my attention but getting to the bottom of said information was quite taxing. Hopefully one of you will be able to give me the answer I need," "Alpha, we are at your disposal," Maverick said bowing his head.

"Have either one of you by chance met your mate within the last year but was rejected?" this question caught me way off guard, but all of the others shook their heads. Why did he need to know this?

"No, sir," Travis answered.

"No, Alpha," Maverick responded.

"Not me," Demetrius replied.

"Nope," Simon said shaking his head.

"Chad?" they all looked at me. I didn't answer and just stood there blinking.

"Chad?" The Beta waved his hand in my face.

"Huh? Sir?"

"Did you meet your mate and get rejected within the last year?" the Beta asked.

"Ummm...Kind of?" I replied.

"All of you are dismissed, except for Chad," the Alpha said. The others look at me with pity. They bowed their heads and left. When the door closed, the Alpha had me sit down across from his desk. "Alpha, is there something wrong?" I asked him.

"Chad, what do you know about the mate that rejected you?"

"With all due respect sir, but why do you want to know?"

"Humor me,"

"We met at a club for our kind, we mated, she left me, saying that she didn't want an Omega as a mate, but didn't actually reject me,"

"Tell me, do you know if she is alive or dead?" I looked at him quizzically. "It's important that you tell me,"

"She's dead, Alpha. She died a few weeks ago from what I can tell," I replied and hung my head.

"Chad," I looked up at him. "Was this her?" he shows me a photo on his phone. I grabbed his phone and then looked at him with wide eyes. "I'm going to take that as a yes," "Alpha, how..."

"Chad, there's something you need to know."
