Chapter 1

The witch held out the Exchange Necklace. "Have you decided what you want to swap?"I followed the comments' hint and glanced behind me. Sure enough, a sliver of Vivienne's sleeve peeked out from behind a tree.I smiled and raised my voice just enough for her to hear. "Of course. The Wolf Alliance Academy Trials are coming up, and a good score could catch the Alpha King's attention. Maybe even land me a position at the Werewolf Bureau.""I'm not about to let this chance slip by. So the person I'm choosing for the swap is the Academy's number one, Vivienne Cole."The bushes behind the tree rustled.Got her.At school, Vivienne was always untouchable. First place in everything, always one step ahead of me. She was the Alpha's daughter with top grades and an elite bloodline, the girl everyone fawned over.But they didn't know their precious princess was a vicious little monster behind closed doors.She'd bullied me more times than I could count. She carved slurs into my desk and locked me

The Trials were getting closer, and the tension at school was suffocating. Everyone had their heads buried in textbooks, terrified of scoring low.I played it cool and acted like I couldn't care less. But late at night, when no one was watching, I studied until I wanted to scream. The stack of practice exams I'd gone through could've filled a small room.Vivienne strolled over to my desk with that sly little smile of hers. "The Trials are right around the corner. How come you don't seem nervous at all?"I knew exactly why she was here. She was fishing for information, so I decided to give her what she wanted to hear.I stretched and yawned like I didn't have a care in the world. "Why would I be nervous? I've got it all figured out. When exam day comes, I'll get my score one way or another.""You, on the other hand—piano lessons, dance classes, helping your father run the pack. That doesn't leave much time for studying. Better use every minute you've got."A knowing smirk spread across

On the day of the Trials, the exam hall was packed.This was the biggest test of the year for the entire wolf territory, and nobody wanted to be late.I got there early, but there was no sign of Vivienne. She finally showed up ten minutes before the exam started, still wearing the strappy dress she'd had on at the bar. She'd clearly had too much to drink the night before, swaying with every step.Her mother was holding her up while her father trailed behind them.Every pair of eyes in the room locked onto her with adoration, including those of my so-called mother, Martha Greer.The moment I found out Martha wasn't actually my mother, I felt something I didn't expect: relief.Because now I could hate her without guilt.She'd abused me my entire childhood. Every time something went wrong in her life, she took it out on me, and my body was always covered in bruises.She was barely home. Nobody cooked for me, so I collected bottles off the street and sold them for scrap just to eat. Hunge

I locked in from the moment the exam started. After months of sleepless nights and endless studying, these questions were a breeze.I blazed through the paper while the comments kept me updated on Vivienne in real time.[Vivienne fell asleep the second she sat down. Turned in a completely blank exam.][The villain has no idea. She still thinks she's going to swap scores and ride off into the sunset.][But... the villain's actually taking this seriously. She doesn't look like someone planning to cheat at all.]Vivienne figured that even if she failed the Trials, she'd inherit the Alpha position and rule the pack anyway.She was wrong. She didn't carry a single drop of Alpha blood. The witchcraft masking her bloodline could fool people, but it couldn't change biology, and no pack would let someone without Alpha blood take over as Alpha.After the exam, Vivienne was the first one out. She spotted me and flashed a winner's grin. "That was way too easy. Looks like first place is mine again,

Results day. Everyone was waiting with bated breath.Vivienne had arranged a full media circus, just like she promised. Her parents were there, and the school entrance was mobbed. This was supposed to be the most public humiliation of my life, or so they all thought.The livestream hit a million viewers."Elara Whitmore has some nerve going up against Vivienne Cole. Doesn't she know Vivienne's been number one every single time? She spent a whole month at the Royal Academy before the Trials. First place is hers.""Vivienne's the Alpha's daughter. She doesn't even need to study, and she still comes out on top every time.""Must be nice. The gap between people like them and people like us is just... yeah. What does Elara even have to compete with?"The whispers grew louder, every single one doubting me and mocking me.But I had to thank Vivienne for gathering quite the audience for what was about to happen.The comments were buzzing too.[I can't WAIT to see the villain's face when the sc

Chapter 6

I'd seen that move coming a mile away. I'd already removed the Exchange Crystal from the necklace and slipped it into my pocket long before she got her hands on it.Now it was my turn."Funny you mention seeing things with your own eyes. I saw you with mine, spending every night at hotels with random guys for a month straight before the Trials. A zero isn't exactly shocking, is it?"The air around us went dead still.Everyone had seen her party photos, and now the doubt was creeping in fast.Vivienne took a step back, forcing a composure she clearly didn't feel. "So what if I went out a few times? I'm going to inherit my father's Alpha position. I don't need to fight over Trial spots with the rest of you."The Alpha nodded. "That's right. Vivienne is my only heir, and the Alpha position will be hers."With her father backing her up, Vivienne's confidence surged. "If you're so sure I'm lying, Elara, then show everyone your score right now.""I'll be honest with you. I slept through the

Chapter 7

Silence. Then chaos.The Luna went white, her voice shaking. "What... what did you just say?"Martha's expression twisted. Her plan had been simple: wait for Vivienne to inherit the Alpha title, then reveal the truth and cash in on a lifetime of devotion from her biological daughter. She hadn't expected me to blow the whole thing wide open first.Vivienne was livid. "What the hell are you talking about, Elara?""I'm not making this up." I bit down on my own finger and let the blood run down to my fingertip. "Witchcraft can mask a bloodline, but it can't change the Alpha blood in my veins. All the Alpha has to do is test whether his blood bonds with mine, and that'll prove I'm your daughter."The Alpha, half-skeptical, pricked his own finger. In front of everyone, the two bloodlines merged together on contact.The proof was undeniable.The crowd gasped. They'd come to watch the rich girl humiliate the poor girl, not to stumble into a scandal this explosive.For the first time, the Alpha

In an instant, my parents froze. Their eyes went blank and their bodies went rigid, like puppets with their strings cut.Vivienne panicked. "Mom. Dad. What's wrong with you?"She whipped around to face me. "What did you do to them? Why can't they move?"I said nothing and just smiled.The swap completed. They came back to life, but the warmth in their eyes when they looked at Vivienne was gone, replaced by something cold that looked a lot like disgust.Vivienne didn't notice. She screamed "Mom, Dad" and threw herself at them.The Luna shoved her away.Vivienne froze as my mother turned to me with tears streaming down her face and pulled me into her arms. "My daughter... you've been through so much..."My father's voice cracked. "All these years and we didn't recognize you... How did this happen?""You couldn't have," I said. "This was planned from the beginning. Martha didn't mix us up by accident. She did it on purpose and even used witchcraft to mask our bloodlines so you'd never sen

Chapter 9

My father announced in front of every camera and reporter that I was his daughter, and the whole territory celebrated the girl who went from nobody to Alpha's heir overnight.But I knew the truth. Swapped parental love doesn't last forever.Growing up in the slums teaches you a few things. If you want to change your life, you have to fight for it, because nobody's going to hand it to you.My father offered me the Alpha position on the spot, but I turned him down."Being Alpha is the dream, I know. But I'm not ready. I don't have the experience yet. Let me work under the Alpha King first and learn how to actually lead. Then I'll come back and do this right."He respected that.I took a position at the Werewolf Bureau and spent the next few years learning everything I could about running a pack.My life was on the upswing while Vivienne's was in free fall.She'd planned to retake the Trials the following year, banking on everything she already knew, but Martha had other ideas. She sold V
