Chapter 110 “How could you do this to me?” Abby said in between her silent sobs. “It hurts Micah. You don’t trust me.” Abby could feel her heart bleeding while admitting how hurt she was by his actions, and the king could feel his heart break seeing her fall apart as emotions whacked her body.
“What do you mean, little one?” Micah was visibly shook at her words. “Please, talk to me.” The king couldn't help but plead with his mate when the girl wouldn't even look at him, while her tears burned holes in his heart and soul.
He could see she was really hurt, and from her words earlier, it was clear it had something to do with him, however, he couldn't quite comprehend just where she got the idea that he didn’t trust her.
He wanted to pull her into his arms and hug her worries and doubts away, but the inquisitive gazes from the people behind him made him think twice as he realized it would be meddlesif Abby rejected his touch again.
It would cause a stir and put her in unnecessary limelight, so he immediately mindlinked his warriors to escort everyone to their respective guest rooms since the threat had been removed for now, Even if another fight broke out, he already gave enough instructions to his royal beta and royal gamma as to what they needed to do, Since they believed it would be wise for Micah to stay with Abby, they couldn't really find fault with this arrangement.
The only problem was, Abby wasn’t even willing to let him touch her now. How in the world should he cooperate with her if Calpin or anyone else did try something to hurt either of them? “Little one, what upset you?” Micah finally asked when everyone left them alone in this huge basement. Even though he didn’t let up, they could still tell how tense the air between them was.
But he couldn't care less about what everyone thought when Abby opened her mouth the second tsince he rushed here to check on her. “You” “What?” Micah was genuinely dumbfounded.
“Yes, I'm upset because of you.” Abby would have shouted if not for the way her heartbeat pounded in her temples. Her head. is aching so badly, she didn’t dare to raise her voice and cause more pain to herself.
“Me?!” Micah asked, frowning out of surprise.
“Yes, but hurt would be a better word, I'm hurt because of you, Micah. Your lack of trust and your lies... Abby broke down completely as she then reiterated everything she had gone through since Micah decided on his own to hold this ceremony which couldn’t even see a proper finishing “I thought you were being genuine when you said you sawas your equal, but it was all a lie. You didn’t even pause to think how all of this is going to affect me, let alone how I have a right to know what was going to happen during my own.
coronation.” Abby talked in a rush as if she wouldn't be able to repeat her concerns a second teven if she forced herself to death. She even felt like flinging the crown on her head since it all felt like a big joke to her.
On the other hand, Micah looked like he was just sucker punched in the gut, really hard, when he finally realized he messed up big time.
However, Abby wasn’t done yet. “Did you even realize how hard it had been forto learn everything in such a short time? 1/44 Chapter 110 [e] I'm not saying you hadn’t had a hard tplanning this great counter attack to achieve your goal of capturing Calpin sooner. I'm not insensitive enough to not understand you did whatever you did only to protect both of us either.” “It’s just that | don’t understand why you can’t trustenough to warneven once.” “No, little one. It isn't like that.. Micah tried to explain, but the girl wasn’t in a state to listen to anything he had to say now.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Then, why didn’t you?” Abby asked, her voice almost cracking while her eyes full of accusation. “You had plenty of opportunities yet, you didn’t even consider sharing your burdens with me...” Micah didn’t have a good enough retort to defend himself, because it really didn’t occur to him to share this matter with her.
So when Abby continued to pour her feelings out, Micah could only stand there, staring at her with this sadness reflecting in his whole being.
He just thought it would be better to solve this problem as soon as possible when he saw that a chance was presenting itself according to Alpha Samuel's reports about the increased rogue activity all around the kingdom.
Calpin was not an ordinary enemy, so he was impatient to eliminate him before he could hurt him or his precious mate, but he didn’t expect to hurt her first.
The more Abby talked, the more remorse Micah felt. He really underestimated the pressure she had to face while preparing for the ceremony.
He thought letting her access to people and resources would be enough to solve her worries, but looking back, he realized he acted really inconsiderately.
He forgot why he canceled the ceremony the first taround as well. But with the rogues on his mind, his initial hesitancy to thrust her into royal politics took a back seat.
He understood better than anyone else how she didn’t get a proper chance to adjust herself to his place and its people yet, still, he couldn't remember any of that while he spent his days planning how to utilize the ceremony she worked hard to arrange as his stage to defeat those pests.
“I'm sorry, little one.” Micah blurted out amidst her breakdown, but Abby just chuckled.
“No... a single sorry is not going to erase the pain you putthrough for the past two weeks, Micah...” Abby rejected his apology in an instant and it was another blow to Mical “How could you not reconsider your choices even after your mother tried to kill me?” Abby’s words shot out like poison coated daggers and the King could feel the blow in his heart.
He was really stupid, wasn’t he? Him having more than he could handle on his plate wasn’t a good enough reason to plead mercy from her either.
Abby wasn’t hurt because he didn’t include her in his plans, she was hurt because he didn’t bother to share his burdens with her.
On the contrary, he had a chance to help her avoid all that effort she fruitlessly put into the preparations.
But it was too late to realize his mistake glow, he was the reason for her endless suffering for the past few days.
Not only did he manage to overwork himself, he also made her work hard for nothing.
“Little one, don’t be like this. Givea chance to make it up to you,” Micah said, not being able to convince Abby how much he regretted his actions.
2/4 Chapter 110 Just like she said, he would have lost nothing if he just warned her a little, but he was stupid enough to want to keep her in the dark “I don’t know, Micah.” Abby confessed, her face contorting with pain. “I can’t think of anything but how you can’t trust me...” And Micah felt like beating himself up for causing her such agony. If before, he could still think he never did anything to hurt her directly, but this time, he managed to achieve that. She was hurt because of him.
His actions. His thoughtless decisions. Whatnot.
So when the girl said she wanted to rest now, Micah could only abide and let her sroom to calm herself down first.
“Okay, but lettake you to our room at least?” Micah’s words cout as a question instead.
“No, | want to sleep in a different room tonight,” Abby said, looking at her fingers that she folded together in front of her, as if she was just a moment away from resuming wringing her hands.
And Micah heard what she didn’t say loud and clear. She was asking for space from him. She didn’t think she would find his embrace safe enough and wanted taway from him.
It didn’t sit well with Micah, and he wanted to argue but the girl didn’t give him a chance.
“Finda vacant room, I'm fine with anywhere. | just want to sleep now,” Abby said, cutting off Micah before he could even protest against her decision.
Abby felt a little heartless for not giving him a chance to explain his reasons properly, especially when she told him she wanted space from him. The painful look that crossed his eyes almost made her falter.
But then, she couldn't forget her own pain so quickly either. Staying out of each other's hair was the best course of action for both of them to calm down for now.
“No, if you want tto rest your head, our bedroom is the most suitable room now,” Micah said, but when she tried to refuse, he held out his hand for her to stop for a second. “I'll stay in another room.” His voice left no room for negotiation even though he didn’t sound overbearing, and Abby didn’t have any strength to continue haggling with him.
Her head was killing her and she just wanted to rest.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOn the other hand, Micah felt only their bedroom was safe for her right now, as he couldn't shake off this bad feeling after he realized his plan had been compromised.
Moreover, Abby was more familiar with their bedroom than any other place in this palace.
Only he felt this knot in his heart when she finally agreed to let him escort her to their bedroom after much persuasion.
He couldn’t help but recall how she sobbed when she explained how much she missed him because he couldn't make it to hug her to sleep even at nights, being busy planning for today’s showdown.
He still couldnt understand how he could be so blind until he couldn't even notice she was suffering so much until she becsleep deprived.
“Little one,” Micah called out when the girl almost stumbled on her own feet, as she stepped on her dress.
“I'm okay,” Abby said, as she held onto the chair behind her, rejecting his helping hand.
Micah could only walk behind her stubborn self as the girl slowly dragged her feet to their bedroom.
3/4 Chapter 110 “You can leave now,” Abby told him as soon as she crossed the threshold of their bedroom.
“My queen, what happened to you?” Alyssa, who had been waiting anxiously for her, immediately approached the girl when she saw her finally returning.
They were escorted back to their own rooms the moment they noticed rogues and had only chere when a guard rushed to relay that they had been summoned to serve the queen.
Micah seemed to have mindlinked someone to call them over.
Abby let her grab her hand, which made the maid realize how cold her body was, as if she didn’t have any energy left.
Alyssa quickly helped her to lie on the bed as she called Reyna to help rub her palms and feet.
But then they saw how the king stopped at the door itself. “Take good care of her.” With that, he swiftly left. But he would cback early tomorrow morning and apologize to her properly.
It was not only her who couldn't sleep when he wasn’t around, the sapplied to him as well. He couldn't be at ease when he was away from her.
But he knew he needed to let her calm down a bit first. Otherwise, he would have insisted on refusing her request outright. Only he realized he made another mistake by not refusing her the next morning, because when he cback to her after a sleepless night, he found their bedroom empty.
