Chapter 76 Before Micah could close the door behind himself, trying to lock him out of this guest bedroom, Arthur caught a glimpse of Abby's face. And it was really haggard.
The girl looked like she was on the death bed! ‘She is so weak, Micah had to summon healers back from the palace!” How did the Moon Goddess bestow his son with such a fragile mate? The disappointment that flooded the former king's heart was unfathomable, imagining a queen as weak and timid as Abby ruling this kingdom along with his son, who had long forgotten how it would feel to be weak in any situation.
They were polar opposites with nothing in common, and she couldn’t bring him any benefits whatsoever.
She wasn't just a burden, she was a dead weight on Micah’s shoulders.
So when Micah told him off about himself interfering with Abby’s matters, Arthur felt even more furious as he lost his composure.
“Do you even understand how you are talking to your father?” He hollered at the King in his anger.
They were in a corridor opposite from the wing Abby was being treated right now, while the guards left to give them space.
However, Micah couldn't care less.
“I do. That is why I’m being polite enough,” the King shot back.
Arthur could understand what Micah meant by that. If it had been someone else, Micah would have let his claws do the talking for constantly pressuring himself to leave his destined mate.
But it wasn't like the former king didn’t know or understand how important a destined mate was to one.
The problem here was; Micah had certain responsibilities and he would need someone who could share his burden, not add to his plate.
1/7 [I A Chapter 76 And adding to his plate was what Abby had been doing from the moment she cinto his life! “You understand nothing! Just open your eyes and look at her. She isn’t suitable for you,” Arthur couldn't help but exclaim when his son remained adamant on deceiving himself to choose Abby blindly just because she was his mate. “It isn’t too late to reject her, you haven't even marked her yet, right? Deep down, you too knew she wasn't even strong enough to go through the marking process!” Arthur hit the nail on the head, but he was wrong about one thing.
“I have already marked her.” The King chose this moment to reveal it. “And she is going to be my queen, whether you approve or not.” “You did what?” Arthur was visibly shocked, but then he recovered quite quickly as he shot back. “That is why she is lying in there? Falling beyond sick?” Hearing this, Micah couldn’t help but clench his fists. However, he didn’t try to correct him. Instead he kept silent, letting him cup with his own stories.
On the other hand, Arthur couldn't believe his son. How could he still indulge Abby when it was as clear as a day that she wasn’t suitable for him? He even mobilized palace healers for her this time, he couldn't imagine what else he would do for her! Was he going to make people babysit her for their entire life? Micah could hear the wheels turning in his father’s head, he was over worrying right now. But he still didn’t make things clear with him.
In fact, he wanted to anger Arthur so much, his father would just up and return to the palace.
Apart from not wanting to move Abby around too much while she was hurting so much, as it would take more than two days to reach the capital city from the Red River pack, Micah didn’t want people from the palace to know how weak Abby was right now.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNot because they would view her as someone weak, but because he didn’t want any kind of information to reach Calpin.
From the way things unfolded thus far, it was clear that there was a spy in the 2/7 0 A polse Sun the Je ws The Turber on anyone from the pale knew, the better.
Moreover, once his further found we allow the rogues and Calpin, he would want to get inredved, which would only derail his own plane He couldn't afford to let that happen.
“It isn’t as bad as it looks. | only called Nadia here, so that Abby could recover soon and we can get back early, Micah brushed Arthur off again.
“Not as bad as it looks? Then why did you stopfrom greeting her?” Arthur jabbed, clearly not believing his son.
“I just don’t want you to disturb her,” Micah dismissed his father again. “It is a wasted trip for you, you should leave.” After saying his peace, Micah mindlinked a royal warrior nearby to arrange for his father to return to the palace.
“I've made arrangements, the carriage will be ready in fifteen minutes.” Saying this, the King gestured for the former king to leave.
In the next second, Arthur could see a warrior rushing toward them to escort him outside.
Arthur wanted to tell Micah that he would go nowhere until he found out why Abby couldn't heal his mark.
However, the King didn’t give him that chance as he started walking away first, but not before throwing a parting sentence over his shoulder.
“Don’t think about any detours. And, Safe journey!” Arthur could only grit his teeth in frustration, watching Micah’s back that disappeared around the corner.
“The situation doesn’t look so good,” Nadia, the palace’s head healer, couldn't help but point out the moment she noticed the raw bite mark on Abby's neck.
Even though it was clear that it looked like a wound that was several days old, it 3/7 111 10:49 sat, 23 Mar Chapter 76 still didn’t start to close. If anything, it looked like it was actually getting worse.
It was swollen so much, she couldn't tell what caused the wound.
Moreover, the other wounds on her body only made it seem like the girl had rolled down a mountain.
“What actually happened?” She couldn't help but ask when the girl looked like she would lose her life any moment now. “How did she end up like this?” Nadia’s voice broke at the end as she hurriedly checked on the girl, who was now lying motionless on the bed.
The witch then gave her a brief rundown on the events that unfolded ten days ago, however, she didn’t reveal too much.
Even though Nadia could make use of all those details for Abby’s treatment, she didn’t think it was necessary to tell her everything.
Moreover, it wasn’t even her story to tell, while the King disappeared with the former king leaving his mate in her care.
On the other hand, Nadia couldn't believe her ears when Mirella said how they were attacked by a dark magic user.
“He used rogues to lure the King, and attacked Abby the moment he found a chance,” the witch passed Abby’s burn wounds as Calpin’s doing while Alyssa and Gloria, who didn’t know the inside story couldn't discredit her.
“The King had to mark her in order to break the spell Calpin cast on her,” Mirella said, making up yet another backstory for the forceful mark on the girl's neck, making the head healer gasp.
“He marked her forcefully?” Nadia repeated as she took a closer look at the gaping yet gory wound on Abby’s neck.
“Yes, it just won't heal on top of all those burn wounds,” Mirella finished, before turning to look at Abby.
Even though Mirella managed to put her to sleep two days back, just so Abby could avoid enduring all the pain, it was only turned out to be half successful as the girl kept sweating profusely at times as if her body fighting Micah’s mark because of the immense pain it continued to inflict on her body.
4/7 Chapter 76 Meanwhile, the wounds she got from being burned by her own fire weren't to be taken lightly at all, as the girl wouldn't respond to any kind of treatment.
Be it Gloria's healing power or Mirella’s fire magic, they had no effect on her.
Their efforts weren't sufficient to alleviate the pain caused by the forceful mark Micah gave her, while the burn wounds only weakened her further until she couldn’t even regain consciousness without feeling like her life was being sucked right out of her.
On the other hand, the more details she heard, the harder Nadia’s heart thumped as she couldn't even imagine what the girl had gone through.
“I'll try to close the wound first,” she said, as she cast her white healing light on Abby's neck.
Her heart ached for Abby as she remembered how the girl had suffered severe burn wounds at a tender age of nine, which scarred her back pretty badly.
That scar, which started from her neck, spanning over her left shoulder and covering most of her back, left Nadia gobsmacked the first tshe saw it.
Now she was involved in another fire, which turned her so weak, even the smallest scratch didn’t heal even though it had been ten days since the incident.
Nadia swore she wouldn't let any more of Abby's skin scar this time.
Only she didn’t expect to find it impossible to help close the wound on Abby’s neck.
She tried a second, third and fourth time, but the wound would just not close.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“How is this possible?!” Nadia was shocked.
Seeing this, Mirella fell into a deep thought. “Maybe because her system didn’t realize it was a mark from the King at all.” Hearing this, the head healer felt it was possible. Abby was just concentrating on pain right now. So she didn’t realize Micah had marked her, so her body didn’t accept it yet.
Moreover, because of excessive pain, Abby couldn’t even regain her bearings completely.
“Let's focus on reducing her pain first,” Gloria said, as she gestured for Mirella to ccloser as well. “We will all cast our powers at once, it may have a positive effect.” With Nadia’s aid, this tthey were able to alleviate Abby's pain considerably, and immediately the girl stopped frowning in her sleep.
“This is at least sprogress,” Alyssa couldn't help but blurt out.
And it was indeed progress, because Mirella didn’t have to make Abby stay unconscious with her fire magic anymore.
Even though they didn’t completely remove her pain, at least it would be at a level that Abby could endure in the state she was in right now.
And it would only be a matter of tbefore she would wake up! ork After Micah left him in the corridor, warning him to leave, Arthur didn’t readily follow his son’s arrangements.
Instead, he silenced the warrior that cto pick him up with his authority and made the sguard call Alpha Samuel over right away.
So here was the Alpha, standing in front of the former king with this troubled expression on his face, not knowing how to answer his questions.
“I don’t really know anything,” Alpha Samuel said, choosing to lie completely.
He didn’t really understand why the King chose to keep Arthur in the dark about the rogues, until he cto him and asked him how Abby ended up in this situation.
But, he knew it wasn't his place to talk about the future queen. He wasn’t the type of person to gossip either.
Only the former king wasn’t ready to let go of the matter no matter what.
So after Arthur asked him for a third time, Alpha Samuel couldn't reject him anymore and told him everything that he knew.
“She had a power back lash while trying to save the King...” However, Arthur stopped him before he could continue. “Her power back lashed? How?” “I don’t know how things work with magic users,” Alpha Samuel said, genuinely unsure of it.
“Magic user? Abby is a magic user?” Arthur’s voice was a mirror of genuine surprise, but then his expression turned even sour.
Witches were rare in this kingdom for a reason.
They weren't welcomed here. At all!
