His Sweet Little Mate

Chapter 21

The King helped his mate into the carriage and Abby saw Alpha James bowing along with all the pack members to Micah and herself as their carriage started moving.

She remained silent even when she saw them keep bowing until she couldn’t see them at all. Micah didn’t talk either, letting her dive deeper into her own thoughts.

“Beautiful, isn’t it?” Micah suddenly said,

Abby, who was in awe, turned to Micah with a small smile on her lips and the King felt his heart thud rapidly.

This was the first tfor Abby to smile, albeit a small one, since they met.

“Yes,” Abby answered genuinely and Micah spent all their journey showing and explaining the scenic beauty of the way from her former pack to the capital city.

Abby was literally glued to her window the whole tas this was the first tfor her to go out of her pack.

Micah had already sent a letter to the capital, announcing that he found his destined mate and he

would be returning to the capital city with their future queen. And so, several people, high ranked and commoners alike, gathered in front of the palace gates as they looked forward to seeing their king’s

mate.

The King had been searching for her for so long, they were all really curious about her.

And this was what greeted Abby the moment Micah offered his hand for her to take and get down from the carriage.

As soon as her feet touched the ground, she saw everyone bowing to her, and she felt so self conscious of herself she couldn’t help but cover herself with the outer robe Micah put around her shoulders.

Micah, who noticed that she was uncomfortable, swiftly escorted her to his own bedroom after dismissing everyone.

“Are you okay?” Micah checked on Abby right after closing the door behind him.

“Hmm,” Abby just made a sound of affirmation as the tension slowly started to leave her body when Micah started to rub soothing circles on the backs of her hands.

Only when she felt calm enough did Abby slowly register the room they were in.

“My former room.” Micah told her in a soft voice. And when Abby looked confused as to why he brought her to this room, Micah simply whispered, “It’s our room now.”

Apparently. Abby had to stay with him in the sroom as they were destined mates. It was a rule. And it was clear that the King intentionally kept this from her.

“Our room?” Abby asked, shocked. She roamed her eyes around the room once again before looking back at Micah, her heart thudding rapidly.

Abby felt the sudden shift in the air as Micah ran the back of his right hand up her left one before the longing look in his eyes registered in her chaotic mind. Gooseflesh erupted all over her skin when he gently cupped her cheek before rubbing her lower lip with his thumb.

Abby didn’t even realize when the man leaned so close she could feel his breath on her own lips. The intensity in his eyes captivated her instantly as she stood rooted to the ground.

Micah had been holding back the urge to kiss her from the moment they met. Even his beast was restless that they hadn’t claimed their mate yet. The need to becone with her was so overwhelming Micah couldn’t think straight. Only he knew that he was on the verge of losing his sanity over the mere thought of tasting her essence.

Only the thought of Abby being scared away from him was stopping him from closing those few last inches between their lips.

“I should probably stop,” Micah almost backed away from her when Abby did something really unexpected. The girl actually darted her tongue out as she innocently licked Micah’s thumb that was about to leave her lips.

Micah groaned at that single touch so loud, he himself feared he would go feral if he didn’t kiss her at that very instant. And kissing her was what he did.

Meanwhile, Abby didn’t know what cover her to actually do something so obscene, but she couldn’t care about it anymore when the King chased her escaping tongue into her mouth and intertwined his own with it, pushing them both into a frenzy of lust and need.

Micah felt his world tilt from its axis at the sweetness he tasted in her mouth while her body responded to his touches as she tried to keep up with the kiss. Her not resisting him and immediately submitting to him was just another delicious treat. And her almost inaudible whimpers and moans were to die for. He wanted to hear more. He wanted to fucking make her scream his name. A kiss was simply not enough.

All gentleness and thoughtfulness were thrown out of the window when the King almost ripped her dress, wanting to kiss all over her body. Only Abby stiffened so fast he thought he hurt her. He immediately released her lips and searched her face frantically.

“Did I hurt you?” He asked her when he couldn’t understand what had happened.

Abby shook her head, panting hard. The girl’s face was so red while her lips were all swollen. In his haste to taste her, he seemed to have forgotten to be gentle and nipped and bit her lips a bit too hard. And she looked even more enticing now.

Their first kiss ended too early. Micah wanted to dive in for seconds when Abby averted her face. The King groaned in frustration when he couldn’t taste more of her sweetness.

But the haze of lust disappeared when he realized that Abby had started to close herself off again.

Damn it! He lost control.

Only he didn’t know him losing control had nothing to do with Abby feeling uncomfortable. Even though she still couldn’t see any obvious signs one would feel finding their mates looking at Micah, she didn’t actually hate him touching her.

If she had to be honest, she actually quite liked the way he touched her like she was something so precious to him. Only the thought of exposing herself to him overruled every other feeling as she

couldn’t help but be self conscious about her scars when he wanted to undress her.

“I’m sorry, little one, I was too impatient just now,” Micah said, hugging her before pressing her head to his chest. They both had to calm down.

“I am okay.” Abby said hurriedly, not knowing how to clear the misunderstanding.

Only Micah brushed her quick reply off as one of her automated responses.

However, it didn’t mean he could give her space like he did last night and sleep in a different room. As such, Micah pulled her to the bed and hugged her to sleep, not giving her a chance to do otherwise.

The next day Abby woke up to an empty bed, but Micah’s scent was rubbed onto herself so much, she couldn’t tell when he left her here alone in the bed.

Having a confirmation or not, both his presence and scent were so calming, Abby couldn’t help filling her nostrils with more of his scent greedily. She couldn’t help recalling the way Micah kissed her last night and her cheeks flushed red in no time.

Only she was woken up from her day dream when someone suddenly opened the door and stepped in were two women.

Judging by their attire, Abby associated them with the maids she saw the day before in the palace. And she was proven right when they introduced themselves.

“Good morning, my lady,” one of the maids, named Alyssa, greeted a confused Abby.

“We are your personal maids, the other one called Reyna followed her fellow sister’s cue.

“Personal maids?” Abby didn’t like the idea at all. “I don’t need…” she was about to refuse them. when Alyssa beat her to it and brought the King up.

“We are here under King Micah’s order, Lady Abby,” Alyssa informed her. She was polite but to the point

And when Abby tried to refuse their help a second time, it was Reyna who insisted they wanted to serve her. Abby could only swallow her protests in the face of their polite working attitude.

“Lady Abby, it’s tfor you to take a bath.” Reyna almost dragged Abby into the connecting bathroom when the girl hemmed and hawed for too long.

However, not even ten minutes had passed after Abby gave in and followed them into the

Micah immediately dashed into the bathroom, only to find mirrored horrified expressions on the maids faces while Abby was trembling from head to toe.

Micah immediately understood what happened. He couldn’t help blaming himself for forgetting to warn them about his mate’s special condition. Now she was embarrassed in front of her future subjects.

He should have been careful when he knew how Abby felt about her scars.

“We are sorry, Lady Abby,” both Alyssa and Reyna were apologizing to Abby profusely when they saw the King enter the room and their hearts dropped.

They didn’t mean to react so strongly after seeing the scars on her back, it was so sudden their reaction was completely involuntary.

“This… My King…” Alyssa couldn’t find her voice when Micah dismissed them both harshly.

“You both get out,” Micah gritted out before slowly walking to the still shaking Abby.
