"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 you going?" she asked.

"Rina, it's better you don't know."

"You either say where you are going or forget about me helping you." Rina threatened.

"Do you remember Adrian?" Rita asked.

"Yes, I do. That ex of yours who broke your heart when he left to further his studies in a far away pack."

"He is back for some days and I want to see him."

Rina stared at her sister in shock.

"Rita, once again, are you mad. You have a mate and you want to skip town to see your ex?"

"Rina calm down, this is why I didn't want to say anything. It's not cheating, I just want to see him one last time for closure."

"No, I won't do this, I can't do this. Rafaele doesn't deserve this. You need to forget about Adrian. If he really loved you, he wouldn't have left."

"Please Rina, please, just this one last time." Rita pleaded.

"No, my answer remains no."

"I am calling on my favor." Rita said.

Rina looked up in exasperation.

"seriously, you are asking me to use that favor just so you can skip town to cheat?"

"It's my favor, I can use it any way I like."

Rina sighed, when they were eight years old, Rina had been bitten by a poisonous snake while they were playing outside.

Before help could come, Rita had sucked the venom out risking her life. As a result, she had fallen into a deep life threatening coma and when she had finally woken up, in gratitude, Rina had promised her a favor to do anything for her. She could never have imagined Rita would use that favor for a thing like this.

She sighed again, "How long did you say you would be gone for?" she asked.

"Two days."

"What do I have to do?" Rina asked in a resigned tone.

"It's simple, just be there, Rafaele's mother still does the Luna duties. All you have to do is smile and pretend to be me."

"and what about Rafaele, won't he suspect I am not you. What if wants to kiss his mate or other things?"

Rita smiled wryly, "Rina sweetie, marriage isn't like that, I and Raphael barely talk to each other these days and as for kissing and other things, it's been a while. We only have sex when it's close to my fertile period so I can have a heir and it's not yet time for that."

"So all I have to do is sit and smile?"

"exactly sis"

"What about my appearance, we might be identical but we are still different, your hair is shorter, and other differences."

"its okay, I will make you look like me." Rita assured her.

"Rita, after this, I owe you no favors. Understood?"

"Yes sis." Rita said excitedly.

"So you are going to tell mom and dad you have a research trip and then switch places, okay?"

"Okay."

Rita hugged her sister tightly, "I know you are mad at me now but I am really happy you are helping me. After this, I will be done with Adrian, I promise."

"you better be done and remember just two days."

"Yes, just two days."

When their parents were back, Rina informed them she had a research trip. Her parents weren't worried at all, Rita worked at the royal werewolf library as a researcher and she often went on such trips.

"But Rina dear, when are you going to settle down?" her mother asked.

"soon mother."

"I am really worried that you don't want to get mated and want to simply do research all your life." her mother noted worriedly.

"The girl will do whatever she wants, it's her life." her father chimed in.

Rina smiled appreciatively at him.

"You see, you keep spoiling her and letting her do whatever she wants." Her mother scolded.

"Rita is already mated, leave Rina alone, she will do what she wants at her own time." her father replied.

"fine, just go on your trip, we will talk about this when you get back, okay?"

"Yes mother" she replied.

She hugged the both of them and went to her room to pack some things for this trip.

For the umpteenth time, since Rita's visit, she wondered if she was doing the right thing.

Shouldn't she try to advise her sister instead of indulging her on this crazy plan of hers?

But Rita had called on her favor and she didn't want to break her promise. It was just two days, she would help her sister for two days.

The next day, very early in the morning, Rina left the house to meet Rita at their meeting spot. From there Rita cut her hair to the same length of hers.

Rina mourned the loss of her long hair but no sacrifice was too much for her sister.

After making the necessary changes. The two looked at the mirror, they looked identical.

"Rafaele is never going to know the difference" Rita said with a smirk.

"You will be gone for just two days right?" Rina asked worriedly.

"of course, just two days" Rita assured her.

Rita took her to the pack and Rina slipped into the pack house successfully while Rita went on her merry way.
