His Sweet Little Mate

Chapter 125

Thinking about her pack only made her feel sad and Abby couldn’t help but realize how pathetic that was.

She lived almost twenty years in that pack, but all she could remember was tears and pain, there was not a single moment in the last ten years to reminisce or feel happy about. Abby couldn’t help but sigh.

It was really pathetic!

“Take this away!” Abby told Alyssa to bring the food tray away after finishing her dinner, as she felt like falling asleep. She was really exhausted because of the journey the last two days. She could use sshut eye.

The girl walked to the bed, but before she could reach it, she stopped in her tracks. “Right!”

“What is it, My Queen?” Alyssa immediately stopped what she was doing as she rushed to her master’s side and checked on her profusely.

“Csomewhere with me!” Abby pulled the girl all of a sudden, not stopping even when the girl said she still didn’t return the food tray to the kitchen.

Abby didn’t stop until she reached this small room in the dungeon, where she met with Hanna last time. She just hoped her older sister was still here, because in her haste, she didn’t stop to check with anyone what happened to the only rogue who was spared almost a month ago.

“Is that woman still here?” Abby asked the guard at the far end of the corridor, who had rushed here seeing the queen had chere.

“Yes, My Queen!” The guard bowed to Abby, before answering her question and Abby immediately made him open the locked door for her.

“How is she doing?” Abby asked, for which the guard replied that she was recovering slowly.

As soon as the lock was opened and Abby was about to step past the threshold of this room, Alyssa stopped her. “My Queen, I don’t think it’s safe to go inside like this!”

She was worried because she could smell that there was a rogue inside, but Abby’s next words left her beyond dumbfounded.

“It’s okay, Alyssa, she is my sister,” Abby said before ordering her maid to stay outside for her.

With that, under Alyssa's confused yet shocked gaze, Abby finally entered the room, which reminded her of the small room she was confined in days ago by Leon.

There was pretty much no difference between the two rooms, except for the water pot Leon left for her.

Just like the last time, Abby could see Hanna sleeping on the small bed that was pushed to a corner with her back facing the door.

“Hanna?” Abby called, and saw her turning around for a second, before turning back around. “It’s me, Abby.”

“Are you here to check if I’m still alive?” Hanna jabbed, still facing the wall before her.

“No, why would you think that?” Abby was genuinely dumbfounded by her words. “Hanna, say something! How are you?”

“I’m still alive, much to your disappointment!”

“What are you talking about?” Abby wanted to shake her sister. “I never hoped for you to die.”

“Talking is the problem here, isn't it? Had I known it was you earlier, I wouldn't even have bothered to wake up!”

Had she known it was me? What does she mean?

“Did she not sense my presence earlier?” Abby mumbled to herself. But then, Hanna was badly injured until she was on the brink of death and was then fed rottingbane leaves before being tortured during the interrogation with the other rogues.

Obviously, her wolf would be in a bad condition. Abby felt a little bad for her, but only a bit though. This was nothing compared to what her older sister put her through for ten years.

But it wouldn’t do if she refused to talk to her, though, because Abby csearching for her in hopes she could talk about an important matter with her.

“It’s okay if you don’t want to talk to me, but I need something from you,” Abby started, after thinking for a moment.

She didn’t know what kind of mind space Hanna was in right now. She didn’t want to trigger her unnecessarily, because rogues were prone to act on impulse and without thinking much.

Moreover, she didn’t want to hurt Hanna unless it was absolutely necessary, so the only option left was to talk to her from a distance, without approaching her.

“I’m here because I want to ask if you remember anything about Father,” Abby asked her when Hanna showed no indication of responding to her again.

Yes, she was here because she was worried about Ryan. From their last conversion, she confirmed that Ryan had also joined the rogues, along with Hanna.

But her older sister said she knew nothing as to where their father went, or how she ended up storming the Black Claw pack along with all those rogues, who were turned into puppets by Calpin.

In fact, she didn’t even know she had been turned into a puppet and taken so many lives like a beast that went berserk until she was given a second chance to heal in the Red River pack.

She was to leave once she recovered, but apparently, she was still here.

“Hanna, say something!” Abby asked once again. She didn’t know what happened, but her older sister straight up ignored her once she mentioned their father.

Abby tried a few more times, but only silence greeted her, forcing her to finally turn away and leave the room.

“I thought I could find something about Father, but it was all just in vain!” Abby could only think to herself as she returned to her bedroom with a heavy heart.

It had been almost three months now, but there was no word as to what happened to their father. And it was all because of that dark sorcerer.

In fact, Abby didn’t know why she just ran here when she recalled that Hanna might be here, maybe she wanted to see someone that was related to her past? She didn’t know, because she and Hanna stopped being sisters a long tago.

They couldn’t even be counted as acquaintances anymore!

However, when Micah returned and asked why she seemed low, she couldn’t tell him anything. She didn’t feel it was worthy enough to be brought to his attention with the situation they were in.

She was just a little unhappy about going back to a place she used to think of as her home, even though she had no family or friends there. Not a big deal!

***********************

Just as Micah said, the next morning, their little entourage returned to the road, so that they could go to the Silver Moon pack as soon as possible. The only difference was, there were a few more additions to their group.

“You can rest assured, Alpha. I’ll take care of our pack until you return!” Ron, the beta of the Red River pack, promised his alpha, as he cto send off this not so small entourage on their journey.

With that, Alpha Samuel too joined Micah and his group along with the best warriors from his pack. They would run along with the royal warriors behind the royal carriage, while another carriage was arranged for Mirella and a few other maids, which included Alyssa.

“Little one, go back to sleep, we still have a long way to go,” Micah coaxed his mate back in their carriage, noticing how she looked a little tired.

She traveled two days straight with insufficient rest, and even last night, she had a restless night, so the king wanted her to rest her eyes at least now.

On the other hand, Abby still couldn’t decide how she should feel about going back to her old pack.

“Will you tellwhat’s bothering you at least now?” Micah asked her for the thousandth tsince last night when he saw her hesitating about getting sshut eye.

But the girl’s response was still the same. “I’m fine, I’m just tired from the long journey!”

“Okay, then! Chere,” Micah called her, as he pulled her into his lap. “I’ll take it upon myself to put you to sleep today.”

He then made her sit astride his legs, with her front to his front, while he sat in the middle of the seat. Abby let him press her head against his shoulder, where he started to massage it with one

hand while caressing her neck with the other.

Only then did she finally fall asleep. With Micah by her side, she wouldn’t find this trip back to her pack so exhausting, right?

But she was proven wrong when she finally reached the Silver Moon pack. Because before the bad memories could hit her, the pack members’ smiling faces slapped her hard across the cheek.

Abby had a severe whiplash looking at their welcoming and happy faces upon seeing her return, she forgot about all the trauma for a second.

These were the speople outcasted her because Hanna spread rumors about her, saying she was a monster with a huge scar on her body. Because it was next to impossible for shifters to sport any scars, thanks to their exceptional healing abilities.

Being the daughter of the pack’s beta, Abby was famous for the scar that spanned from her neck down to her back and hailed as a monster throughout the pack.

“All hail King Micah and Queen Abby!”

It was Alpha James, prompting others to bow and kneel to their rulers, right at the entrance gates to the pack, and Abby couldn’t help but feel disgusted.
