The Alpha's Unwanted Bride novel Chapter 617

Chapter 617: BETRAYAL

Lisa slowly turned around and faced the ground.

I wanted to scream and rip the bitch into shreds.

Tear her from limb to limb until there was nothing left of her.

Feed her body to the dogs.

I wanted to punish her mercilessly and torture her soul until she begged for death.

Her eyes downcast, she began to speak in a small and innocent voice.

"Lady Anna forced me to forge letters to Leviathan," Lisa said quietly.

There was a murmur in the crowd.

My eyes went blood red, and my wolf felt like she was disintegrating at that very moment.

"She has always hated Jasmine," Lisa said in a weak voice. "No one could understand why. Whenever we tried to defy her, she would threaten us."

Lisa faked her tears.

"She is a liar!" I screamed in disbelief and rage.

There was no way anyone was going to buy this.

It was nothing but absolute bullshit.

"She set a meeting with the men, and just so she could have Jasmine out of the pack?" Lisa said. "Forged the letters, stole the necklace because she knew how important it was to you and your family. And then she planted it in her bag. It was all a setup."

All eyes were on me.

From the far corner, I could see Jasmine’s nanny, Nanny Nia, glaring at me with hate and anger.

"Xaden, you can’t believe this," I said. "She is lying. Nothing she says is true!"

"She already gave us enough proof," Xaden told me.

I chewed so hard on my bottom lip that it bled.

I continued to chew hard on it regardless of how deep the cut went.

My heart was beating so fast that I tried breathing exercises to calm it down.

I couldn’t afford to be scared.

I could act without thinking, and that was the last thing I needed.

I looked to anyone to turn to.

Anyone who would be on my side.

But there was no one.

Not Erik, who was my mate, not even my brother.

I was on trial and I had no one to support me.

It was that moment I realized I had never made a friend.

Just enemies.

I looked to Uther, who was now hidden in the crowd.

"And why didn’t you report to anyone in the pack?" Xaden asked.

Lisa sniffed, spilling false tears.

"She threatened us. She had everyone against each other." She said. "She threatened to kill any one of us who tried to oppose her. We were too scared."

Oh, this stupid bitch!

I fumed in anger.

I looked at Lisa, then back at my brother, who was too stupid to see that Lisa was lying.

"She is lying," I screamed. "She was the one who assisted me. She set everything up. She has been scheming with Aurora, your former mistress, before I even came to the pack. It’s all her."

"Do you have any proof?" Xaden asked in a calm voice.

My mind went racing. "No. I mean, not yet. But any servant can testify. They all know."
