After My Wolf Spirit Faded, I Became the Chosen Twin novel Chapter 7

Chapter 7 

“Enforcer, is the case record complete?” 

The enforcer, though confused by Ryker’s question, nodded. 

Ryker grunted and took a gleaming blue memory crystal from his pocket. 

“Then it is my turn.” 

He tossed the crystal onto the table, where it landed with a sharp clink. 

“I am reporting Ivy on suspicion of using forbidden black magic and the premeditated murder of the Blackmoon Pack’s Luna.” 

What?! 

My parents, who were leading Ivy out, stopped dead in their tracks and stared back in disbelief. 

But Ryker offered no explanation. He simply activated the memory crystal. 

Ivy’s sharp, cruel voice instantly echoed through the silent cellar. 

“You bitch! I told you to torture her, not kill her!” 

“I’ll wire you a fortune. You take the fall for everything and go to prison!” 

“I didn’t care if you had to trap her soul and keep her from ever finding peace, as long as she was out of my way!” 

The recording continued. The next part of the conversation completely shattered my parents’ hearts. 

It was a conversation between me and the witch just before I died, which she had secretly recorded for blackmail. 

“Why are you doing this to me?” my weak voice asked. 

Then came Ivy’s arrogant laugh. “Sister, did you really think I didn’t know? I found your medical reports a long time ago. You don’t have long to live, and me? I’m perfectly healthy.” 

“But why would I say anything? As long as I pretend to be sick, Mom and Dad will give me all their love, and Ryker will dote on me.” 

“I burned all those reports and intercepted all the letters you sent for help. Watching you, like a fool, believing you’d stolen my life force in the womb… that was the best part!” 

The recording was short, but it was a sledgehammer, shattering all illusions of affection. 

Everyone’s eyes fell on Ivy at the doorway. 

She stood there, frozen, the tear tracks from her fake crying still wet on her cheeks. 

But now, the mask was completely torn away, leaving only thick resentment and bitterness in her eyes. 

“So… you knew all along.” 

Ivy stared at the Alpha she had adored for years, the hatred in her eyes almost spilling over. 

Ryker’s face was blank. He completely ignored her. 

His disregard shattered Ivy’s last defense. 

She lunged at him like a madwoman. “Why! Why did you expose me? Why did it have to be you!” 

“Ryker, didn’t you say you’d protect me for life? Why are you doing this to me now? Why!” 

“For that disfigured monster, you’re going to destroy me?!”
