Chapter 95

Holding open the paper that had the speech she prepared with Ezgar’s help, Abby stood in front of the mirror in the cloakroom. In hopes to practice delivering the speech, she dismissed her maids’ help when they asked her if she needed anything else for the night when she slipped into the cloakroom adjoining their bedroom.

However, not a single word would make it past her lips, as she could feel her throat drying at the very thought of memorizing every word and presenting it with no mistakes in front of thousands of people during the ceremony.

And, she couldn’t s k i p it no matter what. If she couldn’t even speak a few lines about the kingdom she was going to rule alongside Micah, how would she be able to convince them all that she was up for any challenge at all?

She needed to act brave even if she had forgotten the meaning of that word, not because she was afraid that they would find fault with her, but because her failure might cause Micah more problems.

Just like Ruby said and hoped for, she couldn’t continue being a burden for her mate, who was doing so much for themselves to stay together, where he didn’t even hesitate to start an internal war with his own royal council.

But the pressure she was trying to ignore was real as she could feel her whole body shivering just at the thought of facing so many people, including royal councilors like Arthur and the others who hated her with guts.

She looked upward as she closed her eyes which started to get blurry with tears of frustration at the thought of Arthur’s actions from the moment they met regarding that manipulative b i t c h, Ruby’s, house arrest by Micah.

“Stop thinking about all of them, silly girl. You need to focus.”

Abby had to pep talk herself when the pressure started overwhelming her as it had been two hours since she locked herself in this cloakroom, wanting to practice delivering her speech.

She only opened her eyes when she was sure that she willed her tears back, as she looked at the contents of the speech with determination. She had to see the end of this.

you never did.

Or something Abby never even dreamed of trying. It was really pathetic when she thought back to the last time she actually tried to have a normal conversation with people from her pack.

In fact, she couldn’t even remember ever talking to any of them after her own father and older sister branded her as a monster who killed her own mother.

No one would want to be acquainted with a person who was hated by their one family, when werewolves were known to live in groups, large ones to be precise, with a perfect hierarchical system in place.

And this hierarchical system also accounted for her desolation in a pack as big as theirs, as everyone was afraid to cross the beta of the pack and her father, Ryan, who had the backing of the Alpha James.
