Chapter 11
“I want to see your father, too.”
As soon as Micah mentioned meeting her father, Abby’s face turned unusually pale. Her b*dy switched to the fight or flight mode, only she didn’t have anywhere to escape when the King insisted on keeping her still. He was still holding on to her waist, rendering her unable to move.
However, Micah could clearly feel how her b*dy stiffened even more. The King couldn’t help clenching his jaw, sensing the visible fear in his mate’s system. He had to learn what happened to her until she was like this. What did they do to her?
Meanwhile, Abby didn’t even have enough courage to refuse the King’s hand when he stood up and wanted to pull her out of this guest bedroom. She dragged her feet behind while the King. pretended not to see her obvious resistance. He didn’t want her to stay here longer than necessary. Meaning, he had to rush through things, so he could get her out of here as soon as possible.
“The King is here,” a warrior rushed inside to inform Beta Ryan.
In the next moment, Beta Ryan and Hanna could see Micah entering their house with Abby in his tow. Both Ryan and his elder daughter were visibly shocked to see the ambient air around the two. Somehow, seeing them like this only made them feel even more uncomfortable.
Behind them, they could see several personal warriors of the King. One might think Micah was there for a fight, instead of simply taking his mate away. Maybe they were not wrong. Because, if you looked into the King’s eyes carefully, you would be able to sense the brewing storm in his heart.

It didn’t go unnoticed by Micah, though he chose to pretend that he didn’t see it and nodded in response. And before he could say why he was here, Beta Ryan feigned surprise and started talking about Abby. “Oh, Abby is here as well. Did you have a good night’s sleep, daughter?”
Ryan tried hard to sound as normal as he could, only he couldn’t pull it off out of nervousness or something else, as his voice came out gruffy and he successfully scared Abby.
The king’s new found mate gaped at her own father in shock, not knowing how to deal with this situation. She came here fully believing she would be reprimanded and beaten up for not following her father’s order. Any other time, her father wouldn’t have hesitated to thrash her until she didn’t even have enough energy to plead for himself to spare her..
But now, he was asking if she had a good night’s sleep? And was that a smile on his l*ps. She never saw her father smiling at herself after what happened ten years ago. He looked even more scary than when he was grinding his teeth at her.
