I was too. It was true, that most would think her story was possible, but given what I knew about David, t wouldn’t put anything past him. It seemed obvious to me that he was capable of betraying the kingdom.
He only ever cared about himself, after all.
“Their plan was to help David win the election,” she explained. “He would be a false king that they could control in order to get what they wanted. They were giving him all kinds of money and resources in order to make it happen. That included paying people like me to interfere with the people close to him.”
“In what ways?” Alexander asked.
“Well, keeping Ella’s wolf dormant for one,” she said, glancing at me. “If your wolf was controlled, you’d never find your fated mate, so you would never be tempted to leave David. He needled your families wealth and status in order to win. There was…” she trailed off again, a guilty look on her face.
I already knew why. Anger and sadness chocked me for a second, but I cleared my throat and spoke.
“The plan to kill my father,” I said firmly.
Her eyes went wide and she looked at me in shock. “How do you know about that?” she asked.
Alexander was looking at me in disbelief as well.
“That doesn’t matter,” I said. “But your reaction confirms it. David was going to kill my father so he could have unrestricted access to our pack’s resources.‘
“It was supposed to happen shortly after your wedding,” she said. “I wasn’t involved in that, I swear,” she added quickly. “I’m not a killer.”
“How did David get involved with these people?” I asked. “Who put him in contact with you?
“Archer Gray,” she answered immediately. “He’s well known in the Roguelands. He was the one that contacted me and asked me what I would do to get revenge for my parents. I agreed to help, thinking it would make me feel better. In reality, it only made things worse. And now, it might be too late to stop David…”
“It isn’t,” Alexander said confidently. “If what you’re saying is true and you can prove it, then we have everything We need to take down both David and Archer. Once they’re out of the picture and the immediate danger is settled, we can track down the rest of their group.”
Dr. McIntyre looked uncertain. She took a deep breath, then looked back at me.
“I don’t care about the king, the alphas, any

“So, you’ll help?” I asked.
She nodded her head. “I’ll help.”
of you,” she said firmly. “But the people will suffer if these people
“Good,” Alexander said, standing suddenly. “Then we’ll take you to the king.”
I saw the color drain from her face, but she nodded slightly
“Thank you Brianna,” I said as I stood. “I know that you don’t care about my opinion, but you’re doing the right thing. David would have destroyed so many lives if he was allowed to become king. You saved a lot of peor “y coming forward.”
Memories of the original timeline were flitting through my mind and I couldn’t help but feel slightly sick. In the

past, I was too blind to see what was happening. Her explanation made perfect sense though. David was just a fool being used by others.
All of the damage he did was at the order of someone more wicked and intelligent than him. He was too reckless and rash to pull it off on his own. At least now, I understood what was happening in the original timeline.
And now, thanks to my second chance, I had aunty to do something about it.
