Chapter 53
“Little one, I don’t think it is safe for you to go out without any protection from now on,” Micah said to her solemnly.
“Protection?” Abby asked him, looking genuinely dumbfounded.
“Yes, I’m planning to make a few warriors follow you when you go out,” the King told her truthfully and immediately, Abby’s face paled.
The memory of a few guards laughing at he
mate was still deeply etched in her mind.
in pure mockery when she claimed to be the King’s
They indeed didn’t know who she was then, but that wasn’t enough to overshadow the hurt and humiliation she had been put through that night. Not to mention how all of them whispered to each other about her being a monster, noticing the scar on her n*eck, just like her family and a majority of her previous pack members did, while the remaining few simply didn’t care if she lived
or not.
Moreover, she would most likely stay inside her bedroom at least until the problem with the rogues was solved. Even if she had to leave, Alyssa and Reyna, her two personal maids, would always be with her.
So she said the same thing to the King.
“Warriors? You don’t need to. Alyssa and Reyna will always be with me whenever you are away.” Abyy immediately rejected the idea, as the thought of being surrounded by those guards made her feel a little uncomfortable. Not really just a little if she could be honest.
On the other hand, Micah could see what was running through her mind when the frown between her brows became even bigger.
“Alyssa and Reyna aren’t trained warriors, little one,” Micah said, caressing her cheek with featherlight touches. “Don’t think too much. Just trust me on this.”
Micah also knew she would be uncomfortable with the warriors, who were practically strangers to herself, following her around. But he couldn’t risk her safety. At any cost.
“It is necessary, little one.” Micah then proceeded to explain why he thought this arrangement was
necessary.
With unknown enemies targeting himself, he didn’t want Abby to suffer the collateral damage. Being extra cautious would do no one any harm.
“I want to make sure that:
will always stay protected.” The King sounded really determined, indicating how serious he was about this whole thing.
And when Micah put it like that, Abby couldn’t say anything anymore. If she had to, she would just avoid going out as much as possible.
Meanwhile, Micah changed the topic when he thought it was better to not let her overthink this
matter.

“Alpha Samuel said the witch is waiting for us,” the King said before grabbing her hand and pulling her up as he stood up as well. “Go and freshen up, now that you are wide awake. We will leave right after having breakfast.”
He turned her toward the door that would lead to the washroom connected to this bedroom.
Having been reminded of their purpose to come here in the first place, all thoughts of the extra security flew out of her mind as Abby quickly got ready for the day.
Heavens be with her and help her solve this mystery surrounding their mate bond!
But then again, what could possibly mask something like a mate bond created by the Moon Goddess herself!?
It was nearly afternoon by the time the King came out of the guest bedroom to leave for the witch’s place with his mate, where they saw Alpha Samuel waiting for them with a small entourage.
He prepared about ten of his best warriors, apart from the few royal warriors that were already waiting outside, to follow the King into the small forest that was situated in the south of this Red River pack where the witch Micah wanted Abby to meet was living.
They all bowed to the King and Abby before Micah asked the Alpha if everything was prepared.
“We are all set to leave, my king.” Alpha Samuel immediately said as he led the King and his mate to the carriage waiting for them..
And as soon as Micah gave his nod, this small group started their short journey.
Chapter 53
Only Abby couldn’t find her dropped jaw in time to respond as she stood there with her eyes wide
The woman who just bowed to them was graceful yet attractive in an unexplainable way, especially her beautiful blue eyes. Abby would give her that. Only she was wearing an almost transparent robe over her equally revealing ankle length gown, it actually hid everything while not really hiding anything.
Abby had never seen someone dress so scandalous in her life, she didn’t know how to react for a moment. Her dress looked like a very enticing nightgown strictly used for really private moments. Abby was flabbergasted by her own thoughts.
Even though the Alpha didn’t understand why Mirella was talking about Abby when it was the King who wanted to meet with the witch, he didn’t let his curiosity get the better of him as he played his role of the middleman to the T.
The King only sent a short missive that his mate had something she could use a witch’s advice on and nothing else.
