His Sweet Little Mate

“I’m really a monster, right?” Abby uttered, her face a mirror of horror as she continued, “I killed her… I killed my mother…” Her voice broke toward the end of her sentence.

She was blaming herself for that incident, or more precisely, her father and sister abused her so much that Abby couldn’t even recall how she herself was clearly a victim of that fire accident.

“No, Abby. It was just an accident. Wrong time, wrong person, wrong place and wrong everything else,” Micah stressed each and every word, but Abby was so lost in her own misery and self blaming parade that she wouldn’t stop shaking.

“No, My King, it was because I am a bringer of bad luck,” Abby was so caught up in her own fear of being abandoned by the one person who stood up for her in so long she couldn’t think straight at

all.

“No, my sweet little one, you were not at fault. You were a victim yourself,” Micah didn’t have any other choice but to hold her face with both of his hands so she would only look at himself when he told her that.

She was a victim but her cunt of a father made her believe otherwise. She suffered at least a few third degree burns from her neck to her left shoulder for crying out loud. At the tender age of nine no less. And it left a huge fucking scar when she was a shifter. While shifters were known for their remarkable healing abilities.

“But I killed my mother…” Abby couldn’t help but cry. Her father and sister told her that she killed her mother for ten years almost on a daily basis that it engraved deeply in her mind.

“Yes, she died. But it was not because of you…. even if it was, it wasn’t enough of an excuse for your father and sister to hurt you. For ten years at that,” Micah patiently coaxed Abby to make her understand that what Ryan did was unacceptable.

As her father and only living parent, Ryan should have taken her into his arms when she lost her mother. Instead, he chose to pin the blame on herself until she lost her other parent as well.

“He only lost his mate, Abby. But you lost your whole family on that day,” Micah said, wiping her tears. “His punishment was nowhere equal to the amount of abuse he forced upon you. The same goes for your sister.”

Micah was so patient with her, Abby couldn’t help but lean into his touch as she basked in the warmth he provided her. He was nothing but gentle and warm to her from the moment they met last night.

Micah could sigh in relief when Abby gradually stopped self blaming herself and whatnot as her inaudible sobs died down simultaneously,

He could see that she was really tired, but she stubbornly waited for him to return so that she could talk with him. Only the topic of conversation was not something appealing to the King, though he was glad that some weight on Abby’s shoulders would be eased after this conversation.

Meanwhile, Abby was really sleepy and almost dozed off, feeling oddly comfortable in his presence when Micah said something and her body stiffened slightly.

“Sleep early, little one, we have a long journey tomorrow,” Micah was now holding her hand with one hand while his other hand was still caressing her cheek in soft circles.

“What happened?” Micah asked her when she looked like a deer in headlights, saying nothing.

Again, instead of answering him, Abby searched his eyes and Micah didn’t have a choice but to repeat his question one more time before falling silent to wait for her answer.

“We..?”

Abby just said that single word as if she heard it for the first time in her life. And Micah. immediately understood what was wrong.

“We are mates, Abby. So we will stay together. For that, you will follow me to my home tomorrow,” Micah said, understanding her dilemma. Even though she followed him around like a lost puppy today, it was only because of her special situation.

Abby could accept him as her savior because he stood up for her and took care of both her and her feelings. But she still couldn’t feel the mate bond between them. And she couldn’t readily believe him even though he continuously proclaimed to be her destined mate.

“But I don’t feel anything. Maybe you are wrong. Abby finally admitted.

“No, little one, I’m a hundred percent sure about it. You are my mate, someone I’m going to spend my life with.” Micah could see that she was scared. But she didn’t have to be. He meant every single word he said. His beast could vouch for him.

Abby felt touched hearing his words, but then her expression fell again. She felt self conscious as she remembered her scars as she couldn’t help but touch them.

Her scars were so horrible to look at until people really saw her as a freak. She didn’t believe Micah would feel otherwise.

wever, Micah beat her to it when he dropped his hand from her cheek to her neck and continued in a love filled voice, “You are someone I want to cherish.” Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

His solemn promise was so sincere, Abby felt herself nodding, even though she was only half convinced by him.

Micah understood that it was hard for her to believe himself whom she met only for one day. So he decided to give her the night to sleep on it. He was sure she would eventually come around. With that thought, he proceeded to pull her to the bed.

“Can you sleep now?” Micah changed the topic and Abby felt relieved that he didn’t call her on her uncertainty.

“Yes,” Abby started, but she got a doubt halfway to the bed. “Where will you sleep?” Abby doubted if the King would want to sleep with her, since he believed she was his mate. What should she do then? Abby couldn’t help biting her lips at that thought. Moreover, this room was actually prepared

for him.

Micah could see how awkward she sounded when she asked him that question as her face started

Abby, who was still thinking of ways to push the Kung away, didn’t realize the man was already by the door, ready to leave when she realized he was not touching her anymore.

She opened her eyes and saw him opening the door. “You are leaving?”

“Why? Want me to put you to sleep” Micali raised a brow, only then she realized the King was just teasing her

And her response of burrowing further into the blanket made Micali clackle as he closed the door behind him, shaking his head

His mate is adorable. Period;

However, when he thought about the people back from the palace, Micah’s expression hardened again. It would be hard for his timid mate to survive there. They would have complaints to accept her as the Queen. Not to mention her scars. Abby could really use a good night’s sleep.

The next morning. Abby woke up to the gentle knocking on the door and in the next moment, she saw Nadia, the royal healer, enter the guest bedroom.

“Good morning, Lady Abby,” Nadia greeted her as she walked up to the bed before proceeding to check on her. She was here to make sure Abby was fine for the long journey ahead as it would take about two weeks to reach the capital city.

“I’m here to check on you.” Nadia told her gently while Abby nodded at her in response to her and Jet Nadia do her job. But her eyes wandered to the door.

“The King is waiting for you in his room,” Nadia supplied from the side

Abby immediately lowered her eyes, seeing this, Nadia similed and fell silent.

And an hour later, Abby was all set to leave. She could see Micah waiting for her right outside the

door

Together, Micah and Abby walked out of the pack house toward the waiting entourage. Abby could.

see the streets filled with the pack members..

Apparently, they all came to send the King off.

Under everyone’s gazes, Abby was walking behind the King with her head lowered when she heard someone address her.

“My child, Abby. I am wrong for turning a blind eye to your suffering all these years.”

Abby heard Alpha James‘ voice, and immediately stopped in her tracks.

However, she resumed walking in the next second, as if she didn’t hear anything.

Seeing this. James wanted to stop her again, only he was greeted with the King’s angry glare, which successfully halted him in his tracks.

And when the pack members tried to approach Abby, the royal warriors stepped forward to prevent them from bothering their future queen.
