Around midnight, when her mate finally decided he should give her a break from all the intense pleasure he showered her with until her toes curled and her breath came out short, Abby finally got a chance to execute her little plan.

The only problem was; her voice was too hoarse from all the begging while she just felt like falling asleep, because the king had worn her out so much, she could still feel her legs shaking even though it had been more than fifteen minutes since he cleaned her up down there.

She didn't even have enough strength to complain that she was too sore, and she only felt a little better when her mate pitied her and wiped her down with a hand towel dipped in warm water, and finally joined her on the bed before pulling her into his arms until she was resting her head against his torso as he played with her hair.

Abby couldn't believe her eyes, she felt like she was just run over by a carriage, but the man didn't look like he exerted much energy, even though she had been the receiving one, since the king did all the 'hard work.'

But his astounding physical strength wasn't what caught her off guard the most, but the words that left the king's lips when he noticed her fidgeting. "Will you tell me what you want to ask me now?"

Abby immediately lifted her head and looked up at him. "How do you know I have something to ask from you?"

On the other hand, the king just chuckled at her reaction, where after he tweaked her now reddened nose a little. "Your face gave it away."

Abby couldn't help but agree with him, be it the moment he was back or after they did it, she was a ball of nerves, and her face mirrored the exact. Moreover, Micah could tell that his little mate had something on her mind when she tried to seduce him all of a sudden, but he still played along as it was really hard for him to resist her.

The only thing that wasn't adding up was the reason that had made her resort to such an extreme method. She was usually too shy and slow at such things, so it was quite astounding that she went with such a bold yet effective method.

"I do have something to ask you, but I still don't know how to say it," Abby admitted, knowing fully well there was no backing from it now since it already came to this.

"You can say anything you want," Micah said, feeling she did have that freedom with him.

"Well, I want to know your thoughts on extending punishment to Leon's family, after all, Ruby and her mother were just following Leon's wishes..."

Since there was no better way to put it into words, Abby could only be upfront about this, and she could see her mate frowning immediately
