The Deep Magic
The deep magic from the dawn of time in The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is, every traitor belongs to the White Witch as her lawful prey, and that for every treachery she has the right to kill.
The right by deep magic that Aslan agreed the White Witch possessed was the right to kill Edmund in order to claim him as a traitor, as stated in the laws of the Emperor-beyond-the-Sea.
That would be Edmund. He betrayed his siblings to the White Witch.
This was when Edmund slipped out the door, unnoticed, to alert the White Witch that he had returned to Narnia and brought his brother and sisters. It was the moment that Edmund turned "traitor".
Aslan is sacrificed by the witch, but comes back to life due to the "Deeper magic", which holds that when someone who has committed no treachery willingly sacrifices himself for a traitor, death is reversed, and the martyr returns to life.

No, the Beavers in "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe" are not in the pay of the White Witch. They are loyal to Aslan and assist the Pevensie children in their quest to defeat the White Witch.
Aslan's Deep Magic was the law that the White Witch did not know in "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe." This ancient magic governed the rules of justice and sacrifice in the land of Narnia, ultimately leading to the Witch's defeat.
Tilda Swinton played the White Witch in the first movie: The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe.
The cast of The White Witch - 1913 includes: Hubert von Herkomer as The Witch
