Whoever this man was, he must not be a member of their pack, because it was an open secret that the


    only person who would be locked inside the warehouse was her.


    Some of the pack members, who took pity on Abby, would asionally give her food and water behind


    her father’s back, but they couldn’t do more than that, because unless the Alpha did something about


    it, nothing could be different. Beta Ryan held the highest authority in the pack for his status as the Beta


    after him..


    Unfortunately, Alpha James closed his eyes rted to this matter and let this happen for years. He


    didn’t bother to make things right for Abby, because this was not something that was rted to him as it


    didn’t affect him in any way.


    More so, Abby was not part of his family and he didn’t want to mind how his beta handled his own


    family. That was what Alpha James said to himself and the others to justify his own actions.


    “No, don’te!” Abby said hastily. She was afraid someone else would find her in this condition, not


    to mention if this man was not part of her pack, she would be embarrassed to be seen in this


    way.


    Her father wouldn’t let her off with just a few beatings, Abby would get more than that.


    Yet, it was toote, because that person had torn down the door very easily, as if that door was only an


    essory there, something that you could take down easily.


    Because of the darkness and the only source of light in the warehouse area came from the moonlight,


    Abby could only see his silhouette. He was very tall and his body was so big, bigger than the Alpha,


    which made her feel anxious.


    Who was this man?


    Abby was sure he was not a member of her pack. Was he part of the King’s entourage? The King’s


    warrior? What was he doing here?


    That man moved closer toward her, but still, because of the darkness, Abby couldn’t see his face.


    clearly.


    “Wh- who are you? What are you doing here?” Abby tried to move away from him. “Please, leave me


    alone…” She was genuinely afraid. Her whole body was trembling. This man was very intimidating.


    Such intimidating air could onlye from people like an alpha or a beta. But who was this man? He


    was very intimidating. Were all the King’s warriors this scary?


    you just


    The man suddenly halted his steps when he heard what Abby was saying “Who am I? Did ask, who I


    am?” His voice was slightly darker, which sent shivers down Abby’s spine. She already felt so cold to


    begin with, thus facing this man didn’t help with her situation at all.


    “Please… leave. Leave me alone…” Abby whimpered, she moved deeper into the inner part of the


    warehouse.

    “Leave you alone? In this trashy ce?!”


    65%


    This mysterious man was literally growling at Abby now and she didn’t understand what she had done


    wrong until she offended him. She had never even met with him.


    “I will not let you stay for a second in this ce. I will be doomed if I have to leave you alone,” he said


    darkly, which made Abby widen her eyes when he moved quickly toward her and picked her up easily


    in his arms.


    They were very close, she had never been so close to a man before and his manly scent made her


    stomach do summersaults, but her fear gripped her heart even stronger than any feeling that hit


    her senses, because she feared what her father would do to her.


    “No! No! Put me down!” Abby struggled to get away from this man. She couldn’t leave this ce.


    without her father’s permission. She had to stay here until her father said otherwise! “Please, please!


    Leave me alone! Let me go!”


    Abby started to cry when the man stepped out of the warehouse and his grip on her body only


    tightened. She was so scared her father would find her and beat her up. Not to mention there was a


    high chance this man was part of the King’s entourage, the very people she wasn’t allowed to meet


    no matter what.

    “Calm down, little one. I am not going to hurt you.” Micah’s heart ached to see how badly his mate was


    crying. This was not the encounter he imagined. He didn’t think he would find her inside a dark


    warehouse, covered in dirt and scared shitless. She didn’t even recognize him. How could that


    happen?


    Weren’t mates supposed to recognize each other the moment they were close enough to one another?


    But, even now, this girl didn’t seem to notice that.


    Yet, what Micah felt right now couldn’t be wrong. She was his mate, there was no doubt about that fact.


    “Calm down. I will not hurt you.”


    “No…” Abby whimpered, she struggled to get away from his arms, but she couldn’t. “No…. he is going


    to beat me, please put me down, I need to stay inside…”


    Micah’s eyes darkened when he heard herst few words. “What?!” He snarled so loudly, the sound. of


    it startled Abby, as she stopped struggling and curled her body in and covered her face. She was very


    afraid to offend someone. “What did you say


    “I am sorry… I am sorry…” Abby didn’t know what she had done wrong, but apologizing was the first


    thing that came to her mind, so the other person wouldn’t be more angry than this. “I am sorry… I am


    sorry…”


    However, Micah didn’t want to hear that. What was she sorry for?


    “Say it again. Who is going to beat you?!” Micah’s jaw tightened. He couldn’t believe someone had


    beenying their hands on his mate to make her this scared.


    And now, when he thought about it again, it made sense why she was inside the locked warehouse….
