His Sweet Little Mate novel (Abby and Micah) novel Chapter 29

Chapter 29
“Don’t you know how inappropriate it is for maids to interrupt their masters?” Leila beat Ruby to scold Abby’s maid, Reyna, who couldn’t say anything anymore after that.
When Ruby showed her displeasure earlier when Reyna and Alysa tried to refuse herself on Abby’s behalf, she was both soft and subtle. But that was not the case with Leila as she went full to full master mode on Reyna.
Leila even narrowed her eyes at Reyna, showing how angry she was on Ruby’s behalf. While the girl in question stayed silent herself.
Abby widened her eyes, seeing this girl going mad at her own maid while she didn’t know how to defend Reyna.
This group of girls were haughty in their own nature.
“Easy, Leila. She was just looking out for her master,” Ruby said, trying to calm down Leila.
The girl then turned around to Abby and checked on her. “What is it, Abby? You really want to leave so early?”
Faced with Ruby’s question, Abby couldn’t help but nod her head in denial. “It’s alright. I’m fine.” Abby told Reyna and her maid could only resign herself and go back to the other maid ser vants.
After that, Abby completely tuned them out as she waited for this lunch date to be over.
“Want to explore this place?” Tia suggested to Abby, as the others stood beside her with harmless smiles etched on their faces.
And half an hour later, Abby found herself roaming around this place as her new friends walked her in the streets.
Ruby ordered their maids to wait at the carriage itself saying it would be too inconvenient to move in large groups.
After all, walking in a group of five was already attention grabbing. Abby couldn’t imagine walking in a group of ten, let alone bringing any warriors along for protection.
Like Micah went everywhere. A king would be protected all the time and Abby thought how attention gripping it would be. However, soon her thoughts were consumed by the various sights of this place.
“We five can manage this small walk, right?” Ruby sounded a bit cheerful and Abby couldn’t help agreeing. There were five of them, so nothing would go wrong. Right?
Abby, who had never been allowed to step out of their own pack, was fascinated by the rowdiness in the street markets.
She saw people selling this and that and felt awed by the ingenuity of the sellers.
An hour into this whole exploring the town thing, they saw some commotion and Ruby

immediately said, “Right, today is the Fire festival. Come, Abby, this is going to be fun.”

Ruby didn’t sound like she just remembered it at all. But Abby couldn’t catch that sl*p on her part when an activity caught her attention.
“How did he do that?” She blurted out when someone literally spewed fire from his mouth.
She could clearly see that he was a shifter, so how could he do that? She never saw someone doing that.
“He is presenting the act of fire breathing.” Ruby then patiently explained to Abby how it worked.
The person doing the act would hold a bit of any kind of fuel in his mouth and bring a bit of fire to his mouth and when he blew the fuel around the fire, flames would erupt. Based on the fuel used, the flames could be produced in different colors, too.
The more she listened, the more fascinated Abby felt
“Oh, this is the first time you watched the act of fire breathing?” Tia sounded surprised from the side.
Hearing her question, Abby felt a little self-conscious. When she didn’t say anything for a long time, Ruby jumped in to save the situation.
“Don’t talk like that. You are making her feel uncomfortable,” Ruby chided Tia softly.
After that, Abby went silent as she observed the remaining festivities.
It was really crowded around there, probably because of the fire festival.
“Look, the fight is going to start soon,” Leila said, pointing to what seemed to be a group of people gathered around some fighting ring.
When Abby looked confused as to why they were going to fight in a festival, Gissele took it upon herself to explain it to her.
“It’s not a serious fight, silly. They will fight like professionals, only much crude and brutal.”
“Crude and brutal?” Abby repeated, feeling alarmed.
“They will not kill each other,” Leila supplied.
“At least, try not to kill each other,” Tia said, smiling a bit.
And true to their words, the fighters fought like there was no tomorrow.
“It’s fun, right?” Ruby nudged a speechless Abby, as she pulled her to watch the next act of
entertainment.
However, the deeper they walked, toward the center of the festival activities, the more crowded the place seemed.
Abby had never been to a festival, so all her attention was on the various acts that were happening

along the path they took.
In no time, the sky turned darker as the fire acts took an even more thrilling turn.
There was even a lamp show, where they let loose some kind of flying lamps into the air. And against the dark night sky, these lamps looked like stars.

Abby was so fascinated by the beauty of that sight, she didn’t notice herself getting separated from
her new friends..
One second, her hand was in Ruby’s as she glanced up to admire the flying lamps, and in the next second, she looked down only to find herself alone but surrounded by complete strangers.
She looked around to try and search for Ruby and the others, but to no avail.
Abby felt so scared, as she couldn’t remember the back to the palace.
at they took to get here. Let alone the way
Reyna was pacing in front of the carriage, waiting for Abby to return. With every second that passed, she couldn’t help but feel this bad feeling creeping into her heart.
She felt like she shouldn’t have stayed back, she should have followed her master.
And her heart nearly dropped when Ruby returned with the others with no Abby in sight, saying, “We lost Abby in the crowd, we need to go back immediately and report this to the King.”
