Chapter 16

The King tomed to Abby and asked her what actually happened. “Abby, is what your sister said. true? She didn’t really hurt you?”

Even though the King, tried his best to sound approachable, Abby couldn’t forget his drammatic entrance from earlier or the way he had been gushing his teeth the whole time Ryan and Hanna were busy telling tales and putting on their one sided loving family act.

Yes, she indeed seemed indifferent and oblivious to her surroundings, but she had been paying close attention to her self proclaimed mate

And when the King asked her this question all of a sudden, her system couldn’t comprehend the right response as her automated response made an appearance.

“I Fa- am sorry.” Abby hastily said, as she rubbed her cheeks while closing her eyes. She didn’t know how to escape this situation without upsetting either of the two men who were now looking at her intensely. One was her own father, silently warning her to play along with him. The other was Micah, who wanted her to say something she wasn’t courageous enough to admit.

She just wanted this to end and leave here quickly. “I am sorry” She repented, hoping Micah would drop this matter.

In Abby’s mind, all this ruckus was caused because of her, Had she answered Hamma immediately, the situation wouldn’t have come to this. Now, her father was mad at her again. He wouldn’t stop giving her death stares,

Abby didn’t know if what she did was the correct thing or not, but when she saw her father’s eyes turma but softer, she could breathe a little easier again. Only Micah’s reaction caught her off guard. in the next second..

Micals audibly growled when he heard her apologize again for something she wasn’t even

responsible for. However, when Abby visibly flinched hearing his response, he told himself to calm

down first.

The King could see that she was afraid enough, he should try to make her feel safe with himself, not scare her even further. Having decided that, Mical closed his eyes for a second. He needed to get rid of his growing frustration first, though.

“Abby, Sweety, you didn’t do anything wrong. You don’t have to apologize,” Micah started with calming her down first. “I just want to know if you are really not hurt, okay?” He rubbed her cheeks gently with his thumbs while looking into her eyes, silently trying to tell her that he was on her side and she didn’t need to be afraid.,

Just as Abby nodded her head in response to Mical’s reassurance, Beta Ryan tried to remind her that he was still watching his daughter. “My King, Abby is just sad…” Beta Ryan stopped mid sentence when the King threw him a dagger look.

Meanwhile, seeing how protective Micah was of Abby, Hanna couldn’t help but burn with jealousy. This all should have been hers. The King, his affection, his protection and everything. What right did this monster have to have the King wrapped around her fingers?
