Chapter 15
When the warrior came running to inform him that he was needed in Abby’s room, this wasn’t what Micah expected to find here.
His trusted warrior was just a second away from crushing Hanna’s hand while his mate was too detached from her own surroundings. Micah couldn’t place his own emotions when his warrior reiterated what transpired in this room while he was away.
Meanwhile, Abby was completely silent. Her eyes were lowered as she mechanically continued to pack the few things she owned. But it was clear that she had been crying badly from the tremors in her b*dy.
And when this shameless father and daughter duo tried to talk their way out of this situation, Micali couldn’t take it anymore. “Can tousling someone’s hair result in this?” Micah pointed at the hair
strands in Hanna’s hand.
Both Ryan and Hanna’s faces paled when Micah said that. Hamma was too stunned to speak. She didn’t realize she had actually yanked Abby’s hair really hard until she tore a few hair strands ofl’up until then.
Damn it! The one time she was careless just had to be today, when the King was here to back this monster up.
She had always made sure to never leave any evidence when she abused Abby. And hurting Abby was almost a daily activity for her. It was a part of her daily routine. She reveled in her sister’s pain.
Her luck was really bad today. What should she say to get out of this mess now?
“This. My King- it wasn’t because I pulled her hair to hurt her. It was… it was…” Hanna couldn’t come up with any reasonable explanation, looking all the more guilty with each second that passed. However, it was Ryan who answered the King.
“I think she wasn’t really paying attention and her claws seemed to have cut some of Abby’s hair.” Ryan immediately signaled for Hanna to play along with him. “It definitely isn’t what it looks like.” Ryan continued to say a few more things about how Hanna should have been careful and such.
“Hanna, you should pay more attention to your claws. See, now your sister is almost hurt.”
“I’m sorry, father. I have been careless. I’ll pay attention now onward.”
“Abby, those few strands will grow back in no time. Forgive your sister this one time.” Ryan didn’t forget to pull Abby into his web of lies as well, silently warning her to keep mum until the end.
Micah almost growled at Ryan’s words. What few strands? Hanna almost pulled a tuft of Abby’s hair, Micah doubted if she left any bald spots on her head. But Ryan had the audacity to brush it off just like that?
Both Ryan and Hanna were cunning enough. They were banking on the fact that Abby wouldn’t say anything even if she had been hurt even more badly.
Seeing their hypocritical acting, Micah couldn’t help but ball his fists. He immediately walked
G
“Let me see if you are hurt,” Micah finally said as he didn’t want her to feel afraid of himself.
Even though he asked for permission, the King didn’t really have the patience to wait for Abby’s approval. He swiftly turned her around and lifted her hair to look at the back of her n*eck when he couldn’t find any visible marks on her skin.
On the other hand, Micah almost cursed when he couldn’t find any proof to back his own warrior’s claims. Except for her tears, there wasn’t any obvious sign that Hanna really hurt Abby.
