Chapter119
I shook my head, “My point is, after the trial, you’ll always see me as the one who killed our siblings. But I am just doing the
right thing. And I won’t have you two blame me for it.
Asher remained quiet, his expression unreadable. He wasn’t
offering me any false reassurances, and I appreciated that.
Philip narrowed his eyes. “You sound awfully sure they’ll get a
death sentence.”
“If this were any other situation, the Alpha King wouldn’t have
hesitated to execute them directly. But Asher and I… we’re tied
to them in ways that make this complicated. That’s why we
called for a trial–to make sure the decision isn’t based on
impulse, but on justice.”
Jayden’s calm composure was gone now. He looked frustrated
and angry, “So you already killed them in your heart.”
“They’ve done horrible things to me and Asher. They tried to
kill our mates, and they caused the death of a lot of people,
including the former Alpha King. I won’t pretend I can ever
forgive them. They deserve more than a minor punishment.”
Jayden’s jaw clenched “Then you are right about one thing–we are done. No matter how this ends, our relationship won’t
survive it!
A sharp pang hit my chest, But I forced myself to smile. “I figured as much”
Asher suddenly stepped forward. Ife had said a word until now, but now he looked enraged and betrayed “Ace you done

fine. Don’t expect me to ever step over it
Jayden’s expression flickered with sonetting age
maybe both. But he didn’t take it back. It made me sad looking the two of them like this. They used to seeeach other as
brothers. But too many had happened and we could never go
back.
I reached for Asher’s arm before he could say anything more pulling him aside. His body was tense with angen

this. I’m sorry.”
I placed my hand over his, squeezing gently. “Don’t. All this does is prove that they were never truly on our side. It hurts, but at
least now we know where we stand.”
When we came back to the throne room, the air in the chamber
was heavy with the weight of what was coming.
“Is there anything you wish to say before sentencing?” Lara, the young but powerful judge, gathered everyone’s attention by asking. It was rare for a beautiful and young she–wolf to
possess such power. There must be something unusual about
her.
Kylie stepped forward, her voice wavering as she looked at me, “Violet. I regret everything I did. If I could undo it, I would. But Michael. he was only being used. If anyone deserves
punishment, it’s me. Please don’t let him suffer for my
mistakes.
I stared at her, searching for any sign of lies. Was this just
another manipulation, or was she truly felt sorry? A part of me
wanted to believe her. But another part–one that had been

“I don’t know if I have forgiveness left in me, Kylie,” I admitted.
“Because every time I put my trust in someone, they betray me.
And the same goes for you, Michael.”
My heart was torn. A part of me felt relieved that she plead for
Michael’s innocence. But it didn’t erase the memory of him
standing over me with a gun, finger hovering over the trigger.
Isaac stood beside them, stubborn and proud as always. He
simply said, “I won’t beg, but I wish things had been different. If
