Chapter 138

After Micah discussed with Abby, they both decided to keep the news about her pregnancy a secret from everyone else. Even though they both understood how important a piece of news this was to the whole kingdom, especially since all of their people had been waiting for the king’s firstborn, who was going to inherit the throne next, for quite a while now.

This was in no way a small or trivial matter, but Micah still felt it wasn’t as serious as protecting Abby and their yet to be born baby. With that matter pushed to the backs of their minds, Micah urged the healers to help Abby recover as soon as possible.

Surprisingly, even his little stubborn mate, who would always complain about taking bitter medicine, didn’t make a fuss and focused on recuperating as soon as possible.

“You have changed so much.” Micah couldn’t help but grimace one evening, when he saw her almost choking on the bitter medicine.

She quickly stuffed the candied fruit Micah prepared for her before turning her eyes to her mate. She had been actively asking for her meals and medicines to be taken care of timely, which was truly unlike her.

“Yes, because I want to regain my previous vigor and more,” Abby said, her eyes flashed with this sudden look of determination. “Why are you looking atlike that?”

“I know what you are thinking, but you really don’t have to get involved anymore…” Micah’s voice trailed off when his little one glared at him. Even though she was concerned about the baby and cforward to cultivate her health, she was also focusing on things he believed he could handle alone just fine.

“We already talked about this.” Her tone conveyed that she wouldn’t back down from her decision. “And, we decided we would do this together, long back.”

“I know, but I don’t think you need to exert yourself, especially given your current condition.” The King still tried to persuade her.

“That’s why I suggested that I will work remotely,” Abby asserted, wiping her lips, feeling a little repulsed by the strong taste in her mouth. “So I won’t need to go anywhere.”

“Sending Mirella to investigate on your behalf was indeed effective, but do you need to rush so much like this?” The king should agree, his little mate was even more stubborn than himself.

“Yes, because no one will wait for us to prepare fully before attacking us.” Abby was adamant, and the king could only give up.

They had been having this conversation almost every other two hours since Abby woke up, and the answer he got was always the same. But he still tried one last tto talk her out of it.

“Why do you need to investigate that groove anyway?” Micah couldn’t understand this part. “You said that place spooked you out.”

Abby told him the strangeness of that place. But he didn’t understand why she thought it wouldn’t be as simple as them accidentally landing there.

“Precisely because of that,” Abby said, but then she didn’t know how to explain her actual reasons. “That place reeked of something really strange, there was both dark and normal magic there.”

But it didn’t make any sense to even herself, let alone to Micah, who wasn’t really knowledgeable about magic.

Both normal magic and dark magic at the splace? Was it even possible?

“Once Mirella returns, she will elaborate on the situation.” Abby sounded sure.

In fact, she regretted why she didn’t think of asking Mirella to take a look when she found Abby and Micah with the assistance of the royal gamma and the others there.

She was too occupied then, her mind was filled with getting Micah medical help as soon as possible, and those ominous rusty gates slipped from her mind. Only after deciding to restart investigating the strange deaths in the Silver Moon pack did she remember that groove again.

And she immediately asked Mirella for this favor.

“Then at least relax until she does,” Micah coaxed her, but he was in for a disappointment because Abby’s next statement stressed that she had other plans, those that didn’t include rest or sleep.

“No, I will continue assisting you in gathering information on Calpin.”

That crazy fucker was still on the lose, while they had already been silent for around two weeks already. She didn’t believe he didn’t realize what transpired during her so-called reunion with her father.

“Ryan not going back to report would be suspicious enough to him, he will strike soon.” She wasn’t making up these from thin air, but after observing his attack patterns. “He always tries to attack after baiting us with a distraction. So we must be prepared and do everything to prevent him from succeeding.”

“Will you be at ease if I say I already get enough assistance from Dax and Alpha Samuel?” Micah probed one last time.

“They don’t understand how magic works, Micah.”

This was enough to stop him from coming up with excuses for Abby to continue resting. He could only sigh. “Okay, you are not to leave this study until I give a pass, though.”

The guest bedroom where she was treated had been turned into a study, so that she could summon various pack members for investigation. With Mirella away, it was Dax who was assisting her for the tbeing.

“Micah, Abby!” Dax arrived just as they finished talking.

“I think that’s my cue to dive into work.” Abby almost clapped her hands, but her brow furrowed when she realized the royal gamma calone.

Then she saw the two men exchange a glance, before Micah turned toward her. “Little one, Dax wants to talk about something, wait forwhile I see what he needs, okay?”

Micah only stepped out of the room after his queen nodded her assent for him to leave, even though she felt something was off with that chatterbox called Dax. He was too quiet just now.

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

When Dax requested a private audience with Micah, the king didn’t imagine that the news awaiting him would be something that could make his blood boil with rage.

He and his gamma shifted to the strategy room of this pack house to have this conversation, and now the king was leaning on the long table while his gamma was standing before him.

“It’s not even two weeks since I ordered you that not even Alan should find out about this matter, but it still made it back all the way to the capital somehow?” Micah couldn't believe his ears, as he gripped the edge of the table

“Yes, Micah!” Dax was also furious, this would bring so many changes to their plans. “This bastard is someone really sneaky.”

“What is the actual situation there?” Micah couldn’t help asking, because Dax’s tone indicated that the matter was not as simple as just leaking news about the queen’s pregnancy.

“Actually, the whole capital was filled with a festive mood at first, but then sother rumors started flying around randomly…”

“What rumors?” Micah felt a little uneasy at the word.

“This…” Dax hesitated a bit before deciding it was best to let him read the missive himself. “Here, I think you should read it yourself.”

Micah didn’t waste a second to go through the missive, but the longer he read, the redder his eyes became.

“How dare they!” Micah roared as he slammed the small paper on the table behind him, almost breaking it in half in his rage.

“Calm down, Micah!” Dax tried to calm him down.

“You read what they were saying and you are askingto calm down?” Micah roared, as he breathed harshly. “Ask Alan to investigate who started the rumors. I want all the names, Dax.”

“Yes, my king!” Dax bowed to take the order before Micah dismissed him saying he wanted to be alone for a moment. “Don’t seek the Queen, I need to talk to her first.”

Micah tried to reign in his temper, but the letter seemed like a nasty scourge in his eyes, fueling his anger further until he felt like ripping it into shreds.

“I won’t let anyone, who dared to slander her, off.” He promised to himself, almost crushing the cheap excuse of a paper.

Later that evening, just when Abby started to contemplate whether she should go searching for Micah and Dax herself, her mate finally returned to her side.

“What took you so long?” Abby asked him impatiently, but when she looked behind him, she couldn’t find Dax this time. “It is already getting dark, we still need to talk to a few people, where is Dax?”

“Little one, chere and read this,” Micah suddenly called her out, and his voice told her that he was conflicted about something.

“What is it?” Abby skipped to him but her entire demeanor changed after reading the first few lines. “How did the news get out there?”

“Continue reading…” Micah had a hard tsaying these two words, he knew she would be heartbroken but he promised he would never hide anything from her again.

“T- this… this is absurd.” Abby felt her legs give away as she collapsed onto the sofa behind her. “No, no.. this is not true… how could they say those things about me?”

“Little one,” Micah tried to reach her, when he saw that she was spiraling from the shock. She kept shaking her head while repeating the sthing over and over again.

“Micah, say you don’t believe this. You don’t believe it, right?” Abby’s eyes were filled with unshed stubborn tears to the brim, as she looked like a puppy that had just been kicked hard. “No, you mustn’t believe anything in this. I wouldn’t do that to you.”

She almost flinched when Micah reached over to pull her into his lap. “It’s just me, little one, don’t be afraid.”

Abby felt like she was back to those days in her dark past, where people always found fault with her no matter what she did. It was always fun for them to make false accusations on her and bully her,

with her older sister’s support.

Now the letter seemed like a portal to another such type of situation, where the entire capital was boiling over the rumors that she had committed adultery.

“No, Micah, it’s not true…” Abby started shaking again, but this tMicah gently kissed her to stop her from overthinking, because he knew his mate really well.

“I believe you, so relax first.” Micah said, when he finally sensed that the girl was calm enough to realize that he wasn’t here to blher.

And immediately, the tears she had been holding back started flowing down her cheeks. “I really don't have anything to do with him, I sincerely treated him as my brother, but they created such nasty rumors. I feel disgusted.”

Micah’s arms tightened around her waist. “You were just not cunning enough.”

Had she been cunning enough, the situation wouldn’t have escalated to this point.

Now, the entire capital was roaring that she cuckolded the king with Ezgar, as there were quite a few people who claimed that they spotted the queen with the cheater several times, alone.

All those times she seeked warmth from a brother like person looked like stages of a clandestine affair, and it didn’t stop there.

“Micah, I’m carrying your baby, you shouldn’t sway with their words.”

The king felt his blood boil with rage, when he heard her words. They were actually saying the baby wasn’t his.

He didn’t know how the word got out, but they didn’t spare Abby any mercy at all, because now they were connecting the exemption of Leon’s family to Abby.

The rumors of Abby begging the king to spare Ezgar’s mother and sister joined this fray, acting as fuel to support the rumors of their affair.

It was truly a mess now, and the people who started this couldn’t even imagine what hit them when Micah finally took action. He would show them hell, he swore on his life!
