His Sweet Little Mate by Obticeo Decatect

"Just confine her to her room until the burial."

"But..." Alan didn't think Hera should be let off so easily, however, Abby had already turned around to return to her bedroom as she threw one last remark over her shoulder. "She is hurting and not worth wasting my breath over!"

Abby's words didn't really convince Alan to let it go, but he couldn't defy the queen so openly. So he turned around to face James' mate to deliver one last warning. "Keep your mouth shut if you want to make it back to your pack in one piece!"

After that, he rushed after Abby, while Claire pulled a frightened Hera toward their guest bedrooms. From the moment Alan told the guards to lock her up, she was numb from fear.

For a moment after seeing her mate lying lifeless in that cold coffin, she lost her mind and forgot that Abby was not the same person they stepped on all over back in their pack until a few months ago.

But now that she came back to her senses, she was so frightened, she didn't need any external pressure from the guards stationed by the royal beta outside her door to stay out of Abby's sight!

However, she wasn't the only person who wanted Abby's insistence over not holding the funeral for the king to blow over. In the grand scheme of things, her outburst was brushed off as a child's tantrum while the whole royal council was in knots over debating over Abby's capability to rule the kingdom.

"Even after seeing all those coffins and countless dead bodies, she remains stubborn like this. She just insists on believing in her false hope, instead of doing the right thing." Fabron seemed to have finally had enough of people whitewashing Abby's stubborn tendencies as her being in a denial and unable to accept the harsh truth.

"With such a fragile mindset, is she even suitable to stand among us, let alone order us around?" The elder was still hung up on the matter of the councilors having to report every single issue to the queen, who was none other than Abby.

She was just a woman with experience of a new born baby, not to mention she wasn't even a complete shifter. She was a half witch, who they all looked down on. So how could he digest her wielding authority mightier than him, an elder who had seen two generations of kings ruling the werewolves?

Hearing him express his dissatisfaction toward Abby so openly served to incite a few others who had been stewing over this matter inwardly for months as well, and Mark was the first one to declare an ultimatum.

"Her background is so unsettling, while she was not even stronger emotionally. She can't even protect herself, how could we trust her to protect the rest of us?" The elder pointed out how weak Abby was, both emotionally and physically. Even a strong shifter woman couldn't compare to a mere royal guard, so the girl was obviously on the negative side when they took her combative strength into consideration.

"We can't let her ruin the kingdom," Pedro said, openly agreeing with the two others.
