“I wanted to.” Abby’s simple admission made the King smile and he couldn’t help but tousle her hair.

But before the King could say something, Abby beat him to it with a confused expression on her

face.

“Where are Alyssa and Reyna?” Abby waited all evening, but the two were nowhere to be seen.

At the mention of their names, Micah’s almost smiling face fell so fast, Abby regretted saying something and ruining the moment. But then she saw his face harden and realized something was really wrong.

“What happened?” Abby couldn’t help asking when Micah didn’t say anything for a really long.

Abby realized she didn’t need to ask anymore. They were sent away because of the incident in the morning.

She immediately felt bad as she could tell they were being punished for something that they did unintentionally. She didn’t hesitate to ask them to be released, saying she wanted them back.

“But,” Micah started, but Abby cut him off saying they were just caught off guard and the King couldn’t refuse her when she asserted her stance on this matter.

“A mating ceremony?” Abby couldn’t help but stiffen.

His meeting with the Elders in the morning was actually about this, where they emphasized how the people were all very eager to see their future queen.

Micah felt bad for her. He knew she needed time, but his hands were tied in this matter when they wouldn’t listen to him no matter what. And so here Micah was, informing Abby the one thing he thought about all day, knowing fully well she wasn’t ready yet.

“Yes, where you would be introduced to the people,” Micah told her softly.

Hearing this, Abby was even more dumbfounded… introduced… to… people…”
