Chapter 7
Abby startled the moment she regained her consciousness because the last thing she remembered was when she was being carried by the king.
She was very scared because at the same time, she was being reminded of what her father had told her. He was going to cripple her and beat her up if she dared to meet with the king. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
However, who would have thought, it was the king who came to her. What he was doing in the warehouse?
Abby became even more dreadful when she saw the king was sitting on the chair with his eyes. closed, he almost screamed, but of course, it was a stupid thing to do, so she covered her mouth with both of her palms and tried to calm herself down.
She didn’t even dare to breathe a little bit louder, just in case, she bothered the king, who seemingly was sleeping. Why he was sleeping there? Was this inappropriate for her to sleep on the bed, while the king was sitting down on the chair?
Didn’t know what to do, Abby tried to get off the bed, so she could be away from this room, before the king was awake.
Yet, the lucky star was not on her side at this moment, because when she pulled away the blanket, the king suddenly opened his eyes, those eyes were very beautiful. She had never seen such deep and dark eyes before, they were very captivating, amazed her to the core, as if they absorbed all of her attention.
“You are awake,” Micah said. His voice was as deep as his gaze, he looked sleepy and relax, but Abby couldn’t feel the same.
Immediately, Abby got off the bed and knelt before the king, which made Micah shocked to see what she was doing.
“Get up, what arc you doing?!” Micah immediately knelt down too, but Abby lowered her body even more and pressed her forehead against the floor, which left the king speechless.
This sight didn’t sit well with him, especially when Abby started to apologize with him.
“My apologize my king, please forgive me, I didn’t know why I slept in your bed. I am sorry.” Not even her voice that was trembling, but her whole body too, she was scared.
“Get up, Abby. We can’t talk if you are like this.”
Abby shook her head, she still pressed her forehead against the floor, which was something that someone like her shouldn’t do. Let alone a future queen of this continent, even a mere pack member shouldn’t lower themselves to this extent for the mistake that they didn’t do.
If at first Micah thought things would be complicated in the future and it was not an easy road, right now he thought, it was completely a challenge.
He didn’t even have any idea where to start with her.

“Get up, Abby, this is an order from your king.” Micah didn’t want to use this method, but there was no other way, since she didn’t want to listen.
Slowly, Abby raised her head and then looked at Micah, she was fidgeting and squeezed her hands nervously. She startled when Micah touched her hand and pulled back, afraid for his touch.
“Why are you so scared of me?” Micah asked, he couldn’t comprehend her fear. He didn’t do anything, he didn’t even raise his voice, neither he threatened her. “Do you know what happened?”
Abby blinked her eyes and nodded subtly, this surprised Micah.
“Tell me, what do you know had happened?”
Abby bit her lips, she spoke with her head hung so low, until her chin touched her chest. “You found me in the warehouse and took me here… I am sorry, I have become a trouble for you
Micah blinked his eyes, confusion creased his brows. “You didn’t feel it?”
“Hm? I don’t understand…” Abby tried to think what the king meant by her didn’t feel it. What she supposed to feel?
“Lift your head,” Micah ordered her. He was still in disbelieve, the feeling was very strong for him, but how could she didn’t feel anything about it? She supposed to feel the same thing with him the moment she saw him, but apparently, it was not the case with her.
Abby was too afraid, thus she kept lowering her head.
“Raise your head. This time, Micah’s voice was a little bit firm and stern and he could see how she flinched, he felt bad for her to get such reaction. He didn’t mean to scare her even more than this.
This time, Abby listened to his order and raised her head, but she looked at everywhere, but him, she was afraid of the intimidating aura from the king.
And when Micah stretched out his hand, Abby closed her eyes and curled her body, as if she was waiting for him to hit her. This didn’t sit well with Micah. What kind of abuse she had gone through, until she had this kind of reaction for even a small gesture?
Micah tucked strand of her hair behind her ear and caressed her cheek with his thumb. He waited. for Abby to open her eyes, so they could talk more freely.
“Can’t you feel it?” Micah asked the same question again, he could feel the tingles on the tip of his fingers when he touched her face, this sensation was not something that you could feel with anyone. This was the sign that you touched your own mate, someone who you would spend the rest of your life with.
Abby opened her eyes, she gulped down with difficulty. The king was very big, his hand was coarse and big too, she couldn’t imagine what would happen to her if he really hit her.
“Wh- what? I- I didn’t know what should I feel…Abby stuttered, she glanced at the king, but lowered her gaze again.
“You are my mate, Abby.”
