Capítulo 53: Banishment

"Yes, I'm ready to confess, Alpha!" Matthew repeated, louder. 

"What are you doing, Matthew?" Selene left the rogue and faced her husband. 

"Dad..." Their children whimpered. 

"Alpha, please I beg you with everything that is making you happy in this life, please spare my children and wife. This is my fault. Fine, I'm confessing to the crime. I plotted treason..." Matthew was saying. 

"What? No, Matthew, don't take the fall for me. No!" Selene cried. Matthew shook his head at her, and continued. 

"I plotted treason but it was without the knowledge of my wife and children. Please don't let them face death for what they know nothing about." He pleaded. 

"Since I have confessed to my crime, I should be the one to be subjected to capital punishment. I shouldn't face death along with my innocent family." He pleaded, further. 

"No, Alpha. He is lying. He is lying because I..." Selene tried to protest but he held her hands.
