Chapter 82

Abby woke up with a start and realized she was all alone in the bedroom.

She remembered Micah saying he would join her for dinner and how she begged him that she wanted to have her dinner in the dining hall.

The girl had been literally cooped up in this room for almost fifteen days, albeit she only remembered spending three of those confined in here, she couldn’t help but feel suffocated a little.

On the other hand, she didn’t want to drink that bitter soup alone for her meals anymore. So she used up her energy trying to convince the King.

But he didn’t buy it at all, he even caught her lie.

“Don’t think you can avoid taking medicine if you start having normal meals,” the King teased her, hittin nail on the head and Abby could only deny to the end that she was just aiming for getting some fresh air.

“I didn’t know dining halls provide the purest air,” Micah quipped, but his mate wasn’t ready to back down at all.

“I’ll take the corridor adjacent to the garden on my way there,” Abby countered, effectively leaving the King speechless.

He narrowed his eyes at her cheeky behavior, feeling tongue tied because he knew she would say she wanted to take a walk right after having dinner.

However, he didn’t think it was wise enough to roam around before she recovered at least half of her energy.

She had to promise him that she would be extra careful and let him know if she felt any discomfort right away.

Only after a lot of promises and cajoling did he finally accept her request.

Thinking about all of that now, she felt like she overdid it. “Micah had definitely caught her lie.”

But since he didn’t point it out, nor had he denied her request, Abby brushed it off as well and called Alyssa over to help herself dress for dinner.

“My lady, I think it will be better if we wait for the King here,” Alyssa said, trying to persuade Abby one last time

that this wasn’t a good idea as she helped her tie the threads behind her dress.

“We already made plans to meet in the dining hall,” Abby told her maid.

Even her maid was over worried like her mate, always pointing out that she was still a patient.

“But…” Alyssa started again, only Abby didn’t give her a chance to dampen her high spirits.

“No buts, Micah might have arrived already. Don’t delay me anymore.”

When Abby put it like that, Alyssa could only set her worries aside and follow her master silently.

However, after reaching the dining hall with Alyssa by her side, it wasn’t Micah who Abby saw waiting for her but

two royal warriors.

“Lady Abby, King Micah said he would be late for dinner,” one of them said, while rising to his feet after bowing to

her.

Abby nodded her head in response to the greeting, but her face fell hearing his report.

But then, she couldn’t complain knowing he had been literally cooped up with her in their room while she was

unconscious, even though he would have lots of things to deal with.

It was only natural that he was caught up with something.
