Chapter 5

مؤلف: Forest
I'd just received my mother's message and was about to leave when a court summons arrived.

The summons said Gabriel had petitioned the Werewolf Court to reopen my case and was charging me with perjury.

He claimed Sera was innocent, that I'd framed her to clear my own name, and that I'd illegally fabricated the recordings before the trial.

Then he went public on Facebook, claiming he had a key witness and hard evidence that I'd faked the recordings, and made a show of how disappointed he was in m

  • My Mate Put Me on Trial, but I Became the Alpha Female   Chapter 10

    Six months later, the warriors I'd trained drove back vampires and rogues at the border.A lot happened in those six months. The Werewolf Court finally handed down Gabriel's verdict.The court found him guilty on three counts: fabricating evidence, obstructing justice, and filing a false accusation.He was stripped of his title as Bloodclaw's Beta, banished from the pack, and exiled for ten years.During that time, he couldn't set foot in any pack's territory. After that, the Werewolf Court would decide whether to let him return.The afternoon the verdict came down, urgent news arrived from the border.The White Night pack had lain low for two years before joining forces with two smaller packs. Using the intelligence Sera had once given him, Thomas launched a surprise attack on an outpost along the border between Black Moon and Bloodclaw.The outpost was manned by the first group of warriors I'd trained.Thankfully, they held the line.But when my parents rushed to the front line, Whit

    The day I went back to the training grounds, the sun wasn't up yet.The gates had been repaired, and the records room had new cabinets.I went home to get my foster father's old box and put it back in its usual spot.The next day, I resumed training the pack's warriors.During a break, James pushed open the door and walked in.“Nia.”“Alpha. What can I do for you?”After a moment, James said, “First, Gabriel's trial is taking longer than expected. We won't have a verdict until next year.”I nodded.“And second?”“Second... Audrey asked me to pass something along.“She's given you access to Bloodclaw's intelligence room. You can pull any file you want, anytime.”“Got it.”He hesitated before going on.“There's one more thing. Audrey and I split up all those years ago because of the hatred between our packs.“Leaving you with your foster father was the only choice we had.“Your mother and I love you very much. All these years, we could only find out how you were doing through him.”I did

    I looked at Gabriel. Apologizing made him seem almost like a stranger.He'd always been so cool and self-assured around me, as if no one else was worth his notice.Now his hands were cuffed, with an officer on either side of him. He looked at me, exhausted.“Can you forgive me?”I didn't answer.He continued, “I know saying sorry doesn't fix anything. But I...”I looked at him.“Gabriel, there's something I need to tell you.”He stopped talking, and I went on, “I, Nia, Alpha Female of the Black Moon pack, formally reject you as my mate.”Gabriel fell silent for a moment. Then, his voice shaking, he asked, “Nia, what did you say?”I answered calmly, “I reject you. I'm ending our mate bond.”The color drained from his face, and he took a step forward.“Nia, why?”“I don't want anything more to do with you.”“We just had our ceremony. I still love—”Losing patience, I cut him off. “When you reported me, did you even remember you loved me?“Every time you abandoned me for Sera, did you cal

    On my third day in custody, Daniel came to see me. He sat down across the table and slid two files over.“Audrey's people recovered the deleted footage from the intelligence room.“Sera went into the intelligence room the night before the ambush and stayed for almost half an hour. When she came out, she had a document in her hand. The camera caught it all, clear as day.”When I didn't say anything, he showed me the other file.“There's a problem with the footage Gabriel submitted. We've confirmed it rained that night, but in the video, the ground under the streetlight is dry.“The tech department has issued its report. The footage was edited and spliced together.“As for the voice recordings, Audrey's people questioned the patrol members, who admitted that Gabriel had put them up to giving false statements.”With evidence this strong, I could finally breathe. Daniel continued, “We have enough. I've filed the paperwork. The second hearing is tomorrow.”The next day, I was brought before

    The moment Jack pulled out those two items, I knew Gabriel had come fully prepared.Jack handed the evidence to the judge.“The USB drive contains security footage from the night Marcus was on patrol.“This report concludes that the recordings Ms. Reed submitted were fabricated. One of our pack's technical specialists reviewed the findings and signed off on the report.”The judge had someone plug the USB drive into a computer and turn on the projector. Jack handed him the document.Before playing the video, Judge Harlow read through the document, then looked at me.“Ms. Reed, I've reviewed the report. It was prepared according to the required procedures and certified by the technical department.“In the interest of fairness, we still need to watch the footage on the USB drive.”Then he played the footage for the court.The footage showed me entering the patrol station where Marcus was stationed at around 10:30 that night.Marcus, the patrol captain, was there with several members of hi

I'm Gabriel, Bloodclaw's Beta and Nia's husband. I've always been too lenient with her. Even when she made a terrible mistake, I couldn't bring myself to hold her accountable.“It was only after I marked her that I began to see Nia for who she really is. I'm deeply disappointed.“Sera is innocent. She doesn't deserve to suffer for Nia's selfishness.“Tomorrow, I'll bring a witness and evidence to court, testify on Sera's behalf, and make sure she gets justice for everything she
