3. Put Into Jail

ANGELICA IVANOV…..

“ANGELICA…..” I heard Alexei's raging voice from behind me. And the dagger fell off my hand.

“What have you done?” He rushed towards me, and behind him, Beta Juan followed him. His eyes went wide when his eyes fell on his Mate’s body lying on the floor.

“RAINA…..” He pushed me aside and held his Mate’s body close to his body.

“I'm asking you, Angelica. Why did you do this?” Alexei's voice shook me to the core. I was so scared right at that moment that my whole body was shaking like hell.

I tried to say something to defend myself while shaking my head. “I didn't…..” Tears were streaming down from my eyes.

Suddenly we heard a voice coming from behind the door. “Alex.”

Alexei went there to move the door, and a gasp left my mouth. I covered my mouth in shock when I saw Charlotte sitting on the floor, leaning against the wall behind the door. Blood was oozing out of her stomach.

“Who did this to you?” He screamed and she pointed her shaking hand at me. I felt like the sky fell on my head.

“She's lying.” I tried to defend myself but no one listened to me. Alexei ordered the guard to arrest me while they took them to the hospital.

I tried my best to make them understand that I didn't do anything. But no one listened to me and just dragged me to the prison. Later, I got to know Beta Juan’s Mate Raina died in the hospital while Charlotte survived. Within the blink of an eye, everything changed. I was sitting in the Royal prison without committing any crime. Raina Weasley was the only daughter of Alpha King. She was the Werewolf princess. Alpha King wanted to sentence me to death, but to Alpha Alexei’s request, he sentenced me to four years imprisonment. But I will be banished from the pack the day I will be released.

I was sure it was all Charlotte's plan. But Raina was her best friend

How can she kill her? Is she so heartless that to get Alexei she killed her own best friend?

After they put me in prison, they beat me badly. They tortured me like hell. They burned the arch of my feet. They pulled out my nails. They hit my fingers. They pushed my head into the toilet. There was no day they didn't beat me. They barely gave me food to eat. They starved me and didn't even give me water. When they are pissed they will make me drink the toilet water. When I asked them why they were doing this with me.

As they only torture on me not on others. So the Jailer told me she was just fulfilling her duty. It was Alpha Alexei’s order. Her words hit me like thunder strikes. I never thought he would do something like that with me.

Days passed like that and even weeks. No one showed up. I was punished for four years for committing murder.

I asked the jailer to send a message to their Alpha that I wanted to meet him. I wanted to tell him the whole truth. But instead of him, Charlotte showed up in my cell.

“Hello, Sweetie. Long time no see.” There was a triumphant smile on her face. She was satisfied seeing my condition.

“Oh, my poor little flower. Look at you, you have become so thin.” She said dramatically and I rolled my eyes.

“How dare you roll your eyes at me?” She clutched my hair into her fist so tightly that if she put a little more pressure my hair would plague out of my scalp.

“I will gouge your eyes out and give them to the dogs to eat.” She gritted at me but there was no trace of fear in my eyes.

“When Alexei comes to know about your true face, you will regret thinking why you were even born. You are a psycho bitch.” I spat at her and she hit my head against the wall, hardly making my head bleed. The impact was so strong that my vision got blurry but I shook my head to get rid of the dizziness.

“He will never know. And even if you try to tell him the truth he will never believe you. Because you have no proof against me.” Saying that she started to laugh. And I scoffed at her.

“You are so heartless, Charlotte. To get back your love you even killed your own best friend?” I said with disapprobation. And she smirked at me viciously.

“Who said I killed my best friend? It was just a duplicate. Raina is perfectly fine and enjoying her time in Australia.” My eyes went wide in shock.

“You framed me with false accusations? How can you do this?” I grabbed her by her throat and tried to choke her but I was weak against her. She pushed me hard making me fall on the ground. She pressed her heel on the back of my palm, making me scream in pain.

“You know I feel pity for you. You are so innocent, but still, I had to do this to you. You have no fault. Your only fault is you are Alexei's Mate. If the Moon Goddess hadn't paired you together then you would be living happily somewhere. You didn't get love for years but got hated. I feel sorry for you. You should have rejected him but you didn't. Now rot here till your release day. Then you will be out of this pack.” Scoffing at me, she walked off from there, and I looked at my wounded, bleeding hand.

I wish I had rejected him that day. Then, I wouldn't have to go through all this. A lot of things broke my heart but fixed my vision. I was foolish to believe that I would be able to win his heart by loving him hard. He's so blinded by his love for Charlotte that he can't see my love. I wish I never met him.

FOUR YEARS LATER…..

The prison guard opened the gate for me. “Life has given you a second chance. I hope you find happiness in this life.” He wished me and I gave him a small smile.

Through the iron bar on the prison window, I saw two SUVs and a black Rolls-Royce staking before the prison’s gate. I knew who these cars belonged to. So I requested the Prison guard to let me go out through the backdoor. And he agreed. As I turned to leave I saw Alexei coming out of his car. He looked the same as before. Always handsome. A bitter chuckle left my mouth as my heart still thought of him as handsome. He was a handsome Devil.

“You know I'm the biggest sinner of this world. And my sin is to love you even knowing that you will never love me. You never consider my feelings. I gave you my heart but you crushed it under your feet. You are not worthy of my love, Alpha Alexei. I'm taking my heart back from you. I wish we never met again.” I thought in my mind and left through the backdoor.

I went straight to the bus stop and got on it to leave the pack. “I, Angelica Ivanov, former Luna of the Nightfalls Pack, reject Nightfalls Pack as my pack and home.” After saying that, I felt someone clutch my heart into its fist as I struggled to breathe. The pain was too much to take but I was stronger after taking all the tortures for four years. That's why I didn't pass out. If it was old Angelica then she would pass out for sure.

I didn't feel bad leaving the pack. Suddenly, the bus stopped with great force, making us lean forward over the seat in front of me. We noticed some assassins surrounding the bus from all sides, and suddenly, they started throwing bottles at the bus. Within a blink of an eye, the bus caught fire. Even the door of the bus was locked outside by them. Everyone was screaming inside the bus. To save them and myself I went to the back of the bus and broke the glass. I helped them to leave the bus.

An old lady was afraid to get up from her seat. I had to convince her that nothing would happen to her and that I would safely save her. I safely got her out of the bus. But it was too late when I jumped off the bus. It blasted the moment I jumped. I fell to the ground and saw dark dots dancing before my vision. Am I going to die?

What have I done to deserve a death like this? I wanted to start a new beginning. I wanted to live my life but you don't want it. Am I really so bad that you don't want to give me a second chance to live my life fully. Don't I deserve it?
