"Are you sure you don't want to eat anything, My Queen?" Alyssa had this concerned look in her eyes as she asked Abby, who stood up from her chair, ready to set off.

"I'm fine." Her master rejected, her voice had this subtle tremble to it. "Did you notify the King that I'm good to go?"

"Yes, My Queen. He would be here any second now." Reyna answered her, and saw how Abby checked herself in the mirror once again.

Just as she nodded her head in response to her answer, Abby heard guards bowing to the king, and when she turned around, she could see her mate standing on the threshold of their door. "Ready?" Micah asked her and beckoned her closer when she nodded her yes.
