His Sweet Little Mate novel (Abby and Micah) novel Chapter 100

Chapter 100 

“No, my son. Meeting your mate is equally important and you have already delayed it enough,” Arthur said, knowing fully well Micah couldn’t refute him on this. 

“I know what I’m doing. Father, you better bring mother back first or else, her health might deteriorate further.” Micah said, trying not to lash out at Arthur right now. 

The palace had welcomed revered people from all over the kingdom to witness himself claiming Abby as his queen tonight, not to mention the rogue’s situation. He needed to tread carefully right now, or else, it would be a recipe for another disaster. 

Moreover, he couldn’t afford to push Abby into the limelight by arguing with Arthur over what would look like a trivial matter of letting her meet Micah’s mother in other people’s eyes. 

“I don’t think walking around the palace and greeting some guests could do any harm to a shifter, no matter how sick they are,” Arthur countered, not willing to take the hint or showing any hints to back down. “On the other hand, I reckon she may find it hard to accept your mate if she finds out her origin…” 

Arthur trailed off and Micah couldn’t help but fist his hands, realizing what his father meant by saying such words. And as if to clear any doubts over his intentions, Arthur waited a beat before finally saying what he actually came to say. 

“Micah, you should tell your mother about Abby, everything. And you will understand why I’m adamant for you to reject her,” his father said, slowly yet clearly, as he kept his face blank, betraying no emotion. “Once you see how she reacts, you can reconsider your decision to hold this ceremony.” 

It wasn’t out of Micah’s expectation, but hearing his father threaten him directly still didn’t sit well with the King. 

However, before Micah could respond to his father’s words, someone knocked on the door of his father’s study in the old tower, and the air carried over an urgent voice into the room. 

“King Micah, sorry for interrupting you, but Madam Neesha has come to meet Lady Abby, and they are currently talking in your royal chambers,” a maid said in hurry, making Micah jump to his feet in the next second as he dashed out, leaving the old tower promptly. 

On the other hand, Arthur calmly followed his son with a light smirk on his face, knowing his son couldn’t escape the trap his set, but he maintained a safe distance so as not to let Micah find out he was following him. 

Once he got close enough to the door to Abby’s bedchamber, where she was preparing for the ceremony, Micah 

couldn’t help but hush all the guards who clammered to greet him as they bowed to him.

He then perked his ears to listen to what was going on inside, and couldn’t help but realize how the two women were talking so harmoniously, as his mother fussed over her mate while helping her pick up the jewelry. It made him wish this serenity would last forever. 

But when he remembered his father’s words, the king couldn’t help but snap back to reality as he too dreaded how his mother would react upon learning everything about Abby. Knowing fully well he couldn’t let this go on any longer, he could only barge into the room, which left everyone inside quite shocked. 

“Micah!” Abby was startled for a second when she saw that it was actually her mate, who had come. 

Micah didn’t say anything for a second, but then he saw his mate slowly walking toward him, her face lit up with a smile. He remembered how he wasn’t able to see anything but a frown or forced smiles on her face for the past few days and felt a pang in his chest. 

“Micah, Neesha helped me with the jewelry, she is so sweet,” Abby told Micah sheepishly, once she was close enough to touch him as her mate took her into his arms. 

“Yeah, you look beautiful,” Micah told her as he held her hands, his face a mixture of worry and pity, leaving Abby confused with his perfunctory reply. He looked so distracted as if his beast was restless for some unknown 

reason. 

“What happened?” She couldn’t help but ask when the King shook his head and then pulled her behind him as he walked further into the room. 

He didn’t stop until he was three steps away from Neesha, his mother, before his face turned serious all of a sudden when he ordered everyone to leave immediately. “Everyone can leave.” 

Only then did Abby notice how odd this entire situation was, as she realized everything was so silent since the former queen graced them with her presence. Even when Micah came bursting open the door earlier, no one bowed to him, as if they were all too shocked to do it. 

But when their king asked them to leave, they ran out of the room like their tails were on fire and Abby couldn’t understand why they were having such a strong reaction.
