When the King left Abby with her maids in this guest bedroom prepared for them, the sun was just peeking out of the clouds on the horizon.

Since she couldn’t sleep the whole night comfortably, Micah told her to fall back asleep,! wouldn’t be too tired when they went to meet the witch before noon.

However, Abby couldn’t fall asleep when her anxiety from last night returned in full force once she woke up as the feeling then was too strong to go away so easily. So she just lay on the bed while hugging a smaller pillow tightly.

Even though she fell asleep in Micah’s arms in the carriage, it was because of the gentle care he showed her the whole night.

Now that he was away again and she could say where he went, her mind wouldn’t stay silent as it kept replaying the vicious growls along with the fight that broke out right outside the carriage she was in the moment she closed her eyes.

Whatever that transpired last night had unlocked a new fear in her and the thought of Micah going to the dungeon to interrogate the rogues wouldn’t let her sleep in peace.

She remembered how they fought the royal warriors and Micah without abandon and immediately felt her body turn cold as she shuddered a little.

“Lady Abby, are you cold?” Alyssa, who noticed her master feeling uncomfortable, immediately walked over to her with a blanket she retrieved from the closet.

However, Abby didn’t respond to her in fear that she might give herself away if she opened her mouth and talked to her attentive maid.

Both Alyssa and Reyna stayed with her since the King left for the dungeon.

They kept her company for a while, but she couldn’t keep her cool with the emotions that started racking her frame once she couldn’t see Micah anymore.

So she said she would fall asleep and told them to sleep as well. Only they were more stubborn than her and chose to safeguard her closely.

As such, she could only pretend to sleep, not wanting to worry them both over nothing.

The girl just kept her eyes closed as she told herself that the rogues had been subdued and were given Rottingbane leaves.

On the other hand, when Alyssa didn’t get any response from Abby, she thought her master was just deep asleep.

Since she didn’t want to disturb her sleep, she simply covered the girl with the blanket and walked back to Reyna, who was slightly dozing off on the sofa.

After the attack in the middle of the night, they couldn’t fall asleep either.

Once he came out of the dungeon, the King swiftly made sure that there wasn’t anything out of place with himself.

He was careful enough not to let any blood splash onto him while killing those rogues. Even so, he felt the need to clean his claws and hands thoroughly until there was no scent of blood on him. He didn’t want to make his little one worry over some dead rogues.

Moreover, she was clearly rattled after the fight last night, where she had to cry herself to sleep in his arms. That was why he didn’t tell her he was going to interrogate those rogues himself even though he doubted Abby couldn’t put two and two together.

After all, she was very observant.

Only almost three hours later did the King come back to the guest bedroom prepared for him and his mate, and with the way the room was so silent, he thought his mate had actually fallen asleep like she was told for once.

He entered the room without making any noise and immediately dismissed the half dozing Alyssa who swiftly left with Reyna after waking her up.

He didn’t even let them bow to him fully, not wanting them to make any sound that could disturb Abby.

Once they left, he slowly walked toward the big bundle of blanket on the bed in the middle of this room and immediately knew his mate was just pretending to be asleep.

He cleared his throat, wanting to catch her red handed, and the girl didn’t disappoint him. Even though it was very subtle, she actually stiffened a little hearing his voice.

This girl learned how to act now!

The King couldn’t help but shake his head at her lame attempt of pretending not to notice hist

presence

when her whole body was giving her away as it leaned a tiny bit toward his voice.

This time, he couldn’t help but smile. “You made progress, now you are pretending to be asleep when you are clearly wide awake,” Micah said teasingly, his smile evident in his light voice as he watched how her face turned red immediately.

However, the girl wasn’t ready to give up yet, only her mate didn’t think so as he swiftly pulled away the blanket making her roll to the other side of the bed.

Abby, who wasn’t prepared for him to be so persistent, yelped a little when she thought she would directly fall off the bed.

Her breath quickened as she awaited the inevitable fall that didn’t happen, but she heard him. chuckle again. She was caught!

“Still want to pretend?” The King asked his adorable mate, throwing the blanket onto the sofa a few feet away from the bed accurately.

Since her cover had been blown, Abby couldn’t continue to avoid Micah anymore as she slowly

opened her eyes. Only her mate’s smiling face made her blush even more as she had to hide her face from him with her palms.

Surprisingly, once the King was back, all her fears took the back seat, as she felt like she could breathe with ease again.

On the other hand, Micah felt his heart burst with love looking at the cuteness that was only possible to his little one.

He shook his head as he went to her before pulling her hands from her face. He then grabbed her shoulders to make her sit on the bed before settling beside her.

“Couldn’t fall back asleep?” Micah asked once the girl was calm enough to finally look at him.

Abby just shook her head as she didn’t want Micah to worry anymore. He already had a lot on hist plate.

“Hungry?”

Micah asked when she seemed to be doing quite well compared to the last night when she broke down out of fear.

However, Abby still didn’t say anything as she looked at him with a small frown on her face, as if she had something she wanted to ask him.

“What is it, little one?” The King asked her when he saw her biting her lip in the next second. He lifted his hand and rubbed her right cheek with his thumb. “Say it.”

“What did those rogues say?” Abby finally asked when she couldn’t find a better way to open this conversation she was thinking about having with Micah since he left to interrogate them. “Did yo… Did Dax find anything useful?”

She actually wanted to ask how the interrogation went, but because Micah didn’t seem like he wanted to let her know he was involved in the interrogation, she changed her second question at the last

second.

And Micah immediately understood she did realize that he was involved in the interrogation.

His little mate was quite observant. Micah noted.

On the other hand, Abby felt the need to know why they were actually attacked. So even though she was still a bit afraid to think about those rogues, who reminded her of the horrible fight last night, she chose to ask him about it directly.

She focused on Micah instead, pushing her fears to the back of her mind.

And Micah could see that she really wanted to know what happened.

“Most of them died by the time I went down there Alpha Samuel got one of them to talk at last.” Micah started when he saw the determined look in his mates eyes.

The King omitted all the gory details that might disturb Abby and told the gist of their findings.

Fri, 8 Mar

How Dax said the rogues didn’t know who the actual perpetrator was. And how according to them, they were always contacted by a masked person who called himself Calpin.

And also how he was suspecting one of the high ranked shifters from the court.

“From the court? Aren’t they your people?” Abby asked, feeling a little bit lost.

“They are indeed my people. But one’s mind is fickle. It can change at the strangest of possiblities,” the King said vaguely, as he didn’t want to overwhelm her with the inside politics of the court.

Even though he was telling her all this information because she said she wanted to learn to be a good queen for his people, he believed the court politics could wait until she gained a bit of confidence in herself.

On the other hand, Abby fell deep in thought as she could understand Micah wasn’t really telling her the entire truth about why he suspected his own people.

But then she remembered how people were greedy for power. And it was not hard to put two and two together. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

As she was busy with her own thoughts, she didn’t notice how Micah’s face turned a little serious when he held her face with both hands as he made her look at himself.

“Little one, I don’t think it is safe for you to go out without any protection from now on,” he said to her solemnly at last.
