When My Twin Sister Stole My Mate

"When the bells for our bonding ceremony tolled, my mate, Alpha Killian, was nowhere to be found. Before I could question his absence, a video from my mother appeared in the family group chat.

""Because you've always fought with Daisy. If we had told you, you would have made a scene. What if her wolfsbane poisoning flared up again?"" ""Your wolf is strong. You can always have another ceremony."" ""We're all family. Don't make this ugly over something so trivial."" My head spun, and I could not utter a single word. It turned out my mate and the Luna title were not the only things they could casually give away. They could just as easily discard me without a second thought.
