Alpha’s Bewitching Regret novel Chapter 4

“ You could have pleaded guilty you know?” said Jacob as he held her chains and dragged her to the hell that was going to be her home for the next seven years.

Levy looked up from her hands that were bounded by shifters resistant handcuffs and stared at her brother in incredulity. “ I haven’t killed her why would I plead guilty?” Then she thought about it and added, “ If I have pleaded guilty he would have killed me not pardoned my supposed to be sin.”

“ It would still have been better than this wouldn’t it?” said Jake without much emotion on his face, he has always been like that towards her ——-detached and cold. Being the good son of their father, hating her was something he was bound to learn even if he didn’t learn it from the womb of their mother, for as long as she remembered, Jacob has never cared for her. No, at first when they were children, he cared for her but then after he was caught by their father, he was severely punished by him… after that, her brother stopped caring and simply watched her suffer from the sidelines.

So, it came as a surprise that he was willing to say these words to her. “ Now what, do you pity me?” she asked and when she saw annoyance flash in his eyes, she finally understood why he said those words. “ No, you don’t pity me… you have never pitied me. The reason you are saying these words is because you know that I am not guilty and yet you have to drag an innocent to the prison isn’t that it? You are upset because this is against your beta values—— against your righteousness, right?”

When panic flashed on Jacob’s face she knew that she was right, she turned to look at Jesse who looked away clearly feeling guilty for his actions. He was the head enforcer and just like Jacob he was supposed to be the mascot of honesty and justice but here he was sending an innocent witch like her to prison.
