"First off, my body was never too weak to control the powers I had and I never had a mental issue or throw tantrums as she said," I stated and swallowed, trying to process the words rapidly forming in my head before talking.
"And Alyssa never surpressed my powers, she was using magic to steal them for herself," I added and murmurs erupted in the crowd.
"She kept doing this every full moon, and when I reported her to my dad, he replied that 'she deserves it more than you do'." I added and I paused for a while before looking at their seats and staring at Alpha Jack.
I was about to talk about the issue of mates so hope he was ready to listen to all of Alyssa's manipulations and deceit.
"And about Alyssa being Alpha Jack's mate, it was all a lie," I said, glaring at Alyssa and Alpha Jack.
"What is she saying?"
"Maybe she has really gone crazy."
"Alyssa was never Alpha Jack's mate. I was!" I said, pointing defiantly at Alyssa.
"Hey. Watch it!" Alpha Jack suddenly stood up in anger and he walked towards me, but Dante quickly stood up too and Jack stopped, walking back to his seat.
"Let us listen to what she has to say," Elder Logan said.
"Alyssa somehow found out before I did and with the help of the Petrova sisters, she was able to suppress the mate bond and direct it to herself," I added and Alyssa scoffed like no one would believe what I just said.
Yes, it sounded ridiculous, but it was true.
"I also wouldn't have believed it until I heard and saw it myself. I confronted her because I was so angry, and yes, I picked up a scissors that day, but I was only threatening her to break the spell," I added and I swallowed as there wasn't anything else to say.
"And I could never be mated to someone like you." Alpha Jack said angrily, standing up with anger blazing in his eyes and I scoffed.
"Yes, because I already rejected you and broke the bond." I
"Everything you said so far cannot be proved, but I saw you holding a knife to her throat on that day," he added.
"Well then I guess it's my turn to speak now," Dante replied and he stood up.
I sat down, curious to know what evidences he had gotten.
"Yes, you can speak now." Elder Logan affirmed with a nod.
"Good. Alyssa mentioned something about Natasha throwing tantrums in the house and being mentally unstable, but I have someone here who could disprove all of that," Dante started and I looked around, wondering who it could be.
"You can come out now," dancing said and I looked at the entrance of the square to see Nadia, a servant in my dad's house walk into the square.
Oh My God! Was she really going to speak against my dad!!
I watched as she walked up to the podium and it was visible that she looked scared. She was slightly trembling and avoiding eye contact with everyone at the other side of the podium.
How the hell did Dante get to her?? Wasn't she afraid of what my dad would do to her since she was just a servant??
"This is Nadia and she works as a maid at the house of the Beta," Dante introduced her.
I glanced at Alyssa and my father. The two of them was so surprised to see Nadia here.
"I never gave you permission to leave the house!" My dad stood up, glaring at Nadia.
"I brought her here as a witness. I don't think your permission is needed for this," Dante retorted.
"Rufus, let us listen to what she has to say," Elder Logan said and my dad sat down, "tell us what you know about this." He faced Nadia..
"I have been a maid in the Beta's house for several years now, but I have never seen Natasha acting strange or mentally incapable," Nadia said and I took a look at Alyssa who looked like she was boiling in anger and her fists were clenched.
She wasn't used to be stood up to, talkless of being defied by a maid.
"Natasha is a very smart girl and she has never causes trouble. Rather, for many years he has been constantly abused and ridiculed by her sister and the Beta," Nadia added.
"Did her family really do this to her?"
"This is so shocking!"
"She's just a maid. She could be forced to say this."
"We cannot seriously listen to the words of an ordinary servant. And none of this changes the fact that Natasha tried to kill her sister!" Alpha Jack said loudly and I could see that Nadia looked so scared.
"Thank you. You can wait in the crowd now," Dante said and Nadia nodded before climbing down from the podium.
"The attempted murder is the main reason for Natasha's conviction. All of this is just a waste of time," Jack directly yelled at Dante.
"Yes I might not be able to prove that Natasha didn't make an attempt on Alyssa's life since you saw her with a scissors, but after what I am about to show all of you, I am certain that you'll be the one to tie her up and burn her yourself," Dante replied sharply.
"So I sent a video to Landon and he is going to upload it to Gemini's Group Chat now," Dante said, signaling to Landon who was sitting across us.
He took out his phone and after a while, I heard everyone's phones beep and they all took out their phones too. I was part of the chat too, but I didn't have my phone here and I was really curious to see the video.
"Here." Nathan nudged me and he moved closer to me so we could watch it together.
There were three women in the videos and immediately guessed that they were the Petrova Sisters.
This would be interesting.
