Chapter 25

“She is my mate.” Micah answered Ruby’s question politely.

Even though she wouldn’t stop trying to step even closer to the King by each second that passed, Micah only talked to her when necessary, always keeping his responses short and direct.

“She is?” Ruby said, trying to sound polite. She then turned around to face Abby completely before giving her a onceover.

When she walked over to Micah earlier, Ruby noticed Abby, but she didn’t think much of her. The girl was so plain she didn’t catch her eye at all. Her clothes, accessories or even the air around her was so simple.

Abby frowned when she heard her response. She couldn’t tell what she meant by that, coupled with her appalled face.

Only Ruby recovered too quickly as she smiled broadly. “So you really found her at last.”

She sounded too casual talking to the King of this kingdom. Apart from calling his name, she didn’t try to refrain from following any other custom. “Hi, I’m Ruby. it’s nice meeting you.”

She sounded extra cheerful too, while her words came out too forceful.

Abby could only nod in the face of her greeting. For some reason, she didn’t like this Ruby girl at all.

“We would make great friends.” Ruby said, not bothering with the way Abby tried to refuse her when she skipped over to herself and tried holding her hand.
