His Sweet Little Mate by Obticeo Decatect

Chapter 105

“You know it’s not possible, little one,” Micah broke it to her. “I can’t cancel it.”

“What?” The word left Abby’s lips as a soundless gasp as she stared at him in utter disbelief and hurt.

‘Shocked‘ would be too weak a word to describe her expression as she searched Micah’s eyes, which looked a little hard, a look that had never been directed at her.

After explaining, or more precisely complaining for half a day, how she had been struggling about the ceremony, how could he reject her without a second thought?

“We can’t cancel it a second time, little one,” Micah said, when he saw the tears she had been holding back finally make their way down her cheeks. “Everyone is already here, just waiting for us to appear.”

Hearing him, Abby’s hands that were still clinging onto him until now fell to her sides as she couldn’t help but lower head in disappointment and hurt.

She wanted to wring her hands again, but managed to curb it down as she clutched her dress hard enough. She needed a minute, long enough for her to go through her thoughts, to process what just happened. But then she knew she wouldn’t be able to calm herself even if she had days allocated to the same task.

“But I’m scared…” Abby blurted out. “After what happened earlier, I’m not sure I’ll be able to go through this ceremony.”

“Nothing like that will happen ever again, little one,” Micah told her in a gentle voice when he noticed how rattled she was getting just at the mere idea of talking about the incident from earlier.

He could see how hard it was for her to admit her fears after holding everything in for so long, but just crowning her as the queen of this kingdom wasn’t the only purpose of this procession tonight.

His other plan to lure those rogues to the capital city also needed to be considered when he was thinking about the ceremony.

It wasn’t easy to deceive every single person in the palace, who ceremoniously included that lowlife of a spy who was clearly working for Calpin while hiding in plain sight, that he was totally occupied with the ceremony and making his newly found mate happy.

He might be able to get another chance to deal with them, yes, but he didn’t want to let all the effort everyone put into making this plan go well into waste just because his father couldn’t be sensible enough to leave a pair of mates alone.

Everything was already set in motion, he couldn’t afford to let a single misstep of letting his father grasp a chance to hurt Abby ruin everything.

“Moreover, I’ll be right next to you at every single step during the procession. There’s nothing to be afraid of. Just trust me,” Micah explained to her softly. He took both of her hands that were clutching her dress tightly and rubbed his thumbs over her knuckles, looking into her eyes with this gentle yet reassuring expression on his face. “Let’s not give my father and others any more reasons

to point fingers at us, hmm?”

Hearing his words, more tears flowed down her cheeks which were then wiped by the King who kissed her forehead next. He hugged her close to him as he let her calm down a bit.

On the other hand, Abby couldn’t help but notice how instead of saying you, he said ‘us‘, and Abby finally realized she was focusing on the wrong thing completely.

How could she forget such an important thing? She had been working her ass off for the last two weeks, just so she wouldn’t let anything go wrong and attract negative attention to herself.
