Chapter 45

“Please, don’t leave me,” Abby cried, pleading with the King while gripping the back of his shirt tightly.

The words Arthur said to her had been reverberating in her ears for the last few hours, the girl couldn’t help but break down in tears even harder when Micah pulled her into his arms to console her.

The thought of being abandoned by Micah didn’t sit well with her as she repeated the same thing over and over. She buried her face in his chest once again as a fresh set of tears streamed down her cheeks, drenching his chest further.

On the other hand, the King was stunned by her pleas as he didn’t understand from where she got that idea.

“Little one, calm down. Look at me, please,” Micah literally requested her as he waited for a beat before holding her face in his palms again to look into her eyes carefully.

The sight that greeted him left him heartbroken as the girl looked like she would choke on her own tears if this continued for a while more.

“Abby, my sweet little one, what happened? Why would you think that I would leave you?” Micah couldn’t help probing her when the sadness in the girl’s eyes only increased at the gentle care he showed her.

Micah was particularly careful while handling her, just to avoid hurting her by accident.

But it only made Abby cry harder which left the King speechless.

“Please, don’t cry. Just tell me what happened. I’ll make it right immediately,” Micah promised her, feeling his heart bleed for her.

It took her a while to rearrange her thoughts but Micah didn’t lose patience with her as he kept. rubbing the back of her head or her neck to soothe her sadness while still holding her close to him with his other hand by her waist.

“I- I,” Abby started to talk, but felt her throat was clogged. She cleared her throat a little and backed away from his arms to look at him on her own.

She stared at him and bit her lips, fretting over how to bring up her concerns to his notice.

But then she knew there was no other way to do this than telling him directly about what actually happened.

On the other hand, Micah exercised patience as he silently encouraged his mate to continue talking as he rubbed soothing circles on her cheeks with his thumbs.
