The Female Alpha’s Sanctuary novel Chapter 226

Chapter 226

How similar that was.

“S-so, are you going to spare him?”

She asks, when she manages to have some composure.

“No.”

I answer. For a moment, I might’ve felt terrible. I might’ve felt terrible for lying to her and giving her a false sense of hope. But then I remember what they’ve done and all the people who hurt and died in the process and that tiny bit of guilt is squashed down just as quick. Her eyes glaze over as she stares at me, open-mouthed and shocked at the blunt reply.

“Y-you said-”

“And I lied.”

Within seconds she’s up and trying to charge at me just from pure rage, but the guards holding the chains around her arms yank back and she falls on her a ss with a thud. She glares at me, eyes still misty with tears and red from the stress. Thick droplets roll down her cheeks but she doesn’t make a move to wipe them away. I can tell she’s seething silently, probably proclaiming all sorts of threats and promises of pain and death in her head.

I look at her, trying to think back on any time we ever had a moment of affection. The affection she’d never given me in favor of Hestia. It’s sad. To think I would long for something I never had.

“They’ll be put into death. Method is up for debate.”

All chatter stops when Williams spoke.

We all turned to look at him but he kept his gaze solely on Sophie. She pushes against the chains purely in persistence, lips dropping open for a moment but she quickly starts to retaliate. She’s thrashing, trying to free herself from the binds burning against her skin, screeching out horrified no’s and you cant do this.

But Williams spoke, and he wasn’t going to go back on it. Instead, he turns to me and asks,

“Do you agree to this?”

His gaze fleets from me to her once more and the question resonates with Sophie. She stops in her attempts to free herself to look me in the eyes. Begging. Almost bargaining with me in a silent plea. “Isaac had given his vote and said he would follow whatever decision you would make. So I ask you, Alpha Crestfield: As the sole survivor of the attack at Duskfall, do you agree that the two traitors should face punishment by death?”

“Yes.”

There’s no room for hesitation,

Sophie roars out, screaming at me and calling me all sorts of things. Ralzel is at my side, hand at my waist as he kissed the side of my face for comfort. My wolf merely watches as our biological mother curses the day I was born. She hisses out,

“You act so justified but in the end of the day, you’re just like the lot of us. You’re a monster!”
