The area around her mark was still quite sensitive, so when Micah nipped at it, Abby shivered a little
too hard and the King couldn’t help but feel bad. “I’m sorry, I got carried away.”
Her face was still red, but after his incessant kissing, her lips were so swollen, it hurt just to look at
them.
He let his anger get to him.
So, he hugged her as he tried to calm himself down, as he pushed all her stupid ramblings to the back
of his
mind.
But then he heard her apologize to him in this sad voice. “No, I’m sorry for suggesting something so
silly.”
And her mate could feel her sincerity in her almost cracked voice.
He took her face into his hands again as he kissed her forehead, trying to pour all his affection into this
one gesture as he promised her.
“It’s okay to feel afraid, little one. But never forget that I’ll always be with you.”
Micah could understand her fears, and he was more than ready to help her ovee everything.
Abby felt her heart melt at both his promise and kiss as the girl couldn’t help but smile and dive into his
embrace once again, which was weed by her mate sweetly. The King ran his fingers through her
hair with one hand while pressing their bodies closer with the other, all the while being careful enough,
not wanting to put pressure on any of her wounds.
They stayed like that for a moment, and Abby felt like she could do anything to keep his love for
herself.
The way he cherished her was an inspiration to her and she would use it to motivate herself to be
a queen suitable for both him and this kingdom just like she promised to herself.
But then she suddenly backed away from his embrace as she remembered something.
“What are you going to do now?” Abby dreaded his answer, even though she hid it well.
Neither fighting those rogues, nor returning to the pce to appease those people seemed appealing
to her

right now.
But she didn’t want to let her fears get to her anymore.
Whatever he chose, she would face it with him.

“We will return to the pce,” Micah said, as he walked her to the bed. “Most probably the day after
tomorrow.”
The King then fell silent, wanting to let her digest this decision of his first.
He thought she would say something along the lines like she was not yet ready to go back to the
pce, but was surprised when he heard her answer to his unspoken question.
“Okay, deal with it first! Then what about the situation with the rogues?” Abby sounded totally okay
about them returning to the pce.
So the King could only drop it and answer her question.
Even if she wasn’t ready, it would make no difference. Because anything or anyone would have to go
through him first to reach her.
And he was more than capable of dealing with them all.
“I’ll let Alpha Samuel gather more information on this, then we can make the right decision about it,”
Micah said, and it didn’t go unnoticed by Abby that he said ‘we‘, instead of ‘I‘.
However, she didn’t point it out and allowed him to tuck her in the bed like a small child, before lying
with her to hug her to sleep.
Abby was walking down this dark corridor with Micah by her side. Her mate looked a little worried about
her decision toe here, but she could only reassure him by squeezing his hand, which was holding
hers, a little, as she stopped in front of a metal door,
She held out her free hand, so that Micah could give her the key to open this door, but the King looked
a bit reluctant to let her do this alone.
“You know you don’t have to do this.” Micah pulled her back a little. “At least, not yet.”

“No, Micah. I already told you that I want to do it. And I won’t run away from my problems anymore.”
Abby dered, but Micah couldn’t help but worry.
He knew how she was still caring about her sister. So he was afraid this confrontation with Hanna
would only hurt her right now.
“I’ll be fine,” she told him in her soft voice as she smiled at him reassuringly.
Only then did the king relent, but he opened the door himself as he said onest time. “I’ll be right
outside.”
“Okay!” Abby understood the memo.

If she couldn’t deal with it, she could just call for him, and he would immediately bring her away, like he
detailed her a million times since she told him that she wanted to meet with her older sister Hanna.
Yes, that was who was on the other side of this door.
Micah told her he didn’t find it in himself to leave her to fend in the dungeons with all her wounds once
he found out she was one of the rogues, since she was his mate’s older sister.
Moreover, deep down, he knew how much Abby cared for her.
So he made them shift her to another single yet aparably bearable room and got a healer to treat
her wounds.
Abby thought long and hard before deciding to meet Hanna. But, atst, she decided it would be for the
best if she could get closure over this matter and put it behind them.
So here she was, about to face her ten year long tormentor, also her older sister in name.
Abby closed her eyes for a moment to gather her emotions and then entered the room.
Hanna seemed to be sleeping in the bed.
She closed the door behind her and then turned around to find the room to be quite small with minimal
furniture.
There was only a small bed in one corner and a barstool where they ced a pot of water along with a
small tumbler.

It didn’t even take her ten seconds to scour her eyes through this small room, even though itcked the
perceivable light, maybe because there was only a small window at the back, which seemed to be the
only
source of light here.
It was quite dim in here, and Abby felt bad for Hanna a little. Only a little.
Because, Hanna made her stay in ces much nastier than this.
But then she couldn’t help but feel it was wrong to think like that, and shook her head.
“Came to enjoy my miserable state?”

A sudden voice reached her ears, startling her out of her thoughts as she turned around to look at the
source of the sound, only to find Hanna sitting in the bed with this angry expression on her face.
“Enjoy your miserable state?” Abby couldn’t help but ask when Hanna started to use her of things
she wasn’t capable of, as usual.
“Yes. isn’t that what you are doing now?” Hanna said, as she waved her hand around.
Abby immediately understood what Hanna meant.
“No, why would I…”
Abby wanted to defend herself but was cut off by Hanna quite harshly.
“Quit acting, don’t think I can’t tell what was running through that nasty mind of yours.”
Hanna was still the same as ever, letting her hatred toward Abby get the better of herself.
Her words were full of venom and Abby had to ept the harsh reality that Hanna could never see
past her bad reputation as their mother’s murderer.
“You must be rejoicing that I ended up like this in your heart,” Hanna spat, springing to her feet. “Look,
look all you want. This is what you came for, right?
Hanna turned hysterical as she lifted her dress and showed all her wounds to Abby.

She sensed someone opening the door earlier, and by their scent, she immediately realized it was
Abby. She waited for her to say why she came to see her.

She mistook the way Abby looked around the room. In her eyes, it looked like Abby was being haughty
right now because she had the King behind her.
So coupled with the way she let Micah throw their father and herself out of the kingdom, Hanna felt that
Abby was showing her true colors finally.
“You are a murderer who killed her own mother. So you are capable of anything, especially things like
tormenting people,” Hanna went on like a mad woman and Abby couldn’t tolerate it when she jumped
to conclusions like that.
“Hanna, can you hear yourself?” Abby said in an even voice. “Don’t you think you are talking about
yourself?”
Hearing her counter, Hanna was left tongue tied for a moment. Only for a moment though. “What did
you just say, you monster?!”
Had it not been for the fact that she could smell that Micah was right outside the door, and her current
inability to shift into her wolf, Hanna wouldn’t be talking even this calmly to this monster.
They made sure to force herself to drink those nasty Rottingbane leaves until she couldn’t even feel her
wolf. Her beast was suppressed so much, it was pushed to the far end of her mind.
Coupled with her wounds, she was very weak right now.
Or else, she would have taught this monster a lesson for acting haughty just because she was at her
lowest right
now.
On the other hand, Abby was frozen for a moment after hearing the same usation yet again!
Monster!
She had tormented her for ten years in the name of her own love toward their mother. On several
asions, she beat her to within an inch of her life while her father turned a blind eye to her suffering.
Hanna never missed a chance to rub the fact that she was a murderer of her own mother in her face
either.
For ten years, she beat her, insulted her, called her names, contributing to her torment both physically
and

mentally.
And she was calling her a monster!

No, not anymore. She wouldn’t let her put herself down anymore. Even though she was once an older
sister to Abby and she loved her dearly.
But then, even Hanna loved her until her mother started focusing a little more than usual on Abby, so
that she wouldn’t feel lost after discovering she could use magic.
So, was there anything wrong with what she said?
“You heard me clearly, Hanna! You know best who is the real monster between us two!”

Abby felt she had enough of Hanna’s bullshit. She never tried to understand her own sister and
wouldn’t start it afresh.
“I ept I caused our mother’s death, and I’ll not say anything no matter how much you hate me for it.
Because I deserve it. I’m sorry that I didn’t listen to her and she had to pay the price for my ignorance
with her life,” Abby said, word to word, her voice even as she pinned Hanna with a hard look. “But that
was it. I agree it was a
mistake so big, warranting punishment. But wasn’t losing the most important person in my life huge
enough of a price already?”
感
Riley was her mother as well and not Hanna’s alone. She loved her with all her heart too.
Only Hanna and Ryan let their hatred consume their hearts until they couldn’t see that Abby was just a
child of nine years old. For a child her age, who would be more important than their mother?
“And the huge scar on my back was proof enough that I also had a close call that day. I was
unconscious for several days straight. But you didn’t feel it was enough!”
Both her father and Hanna focused on their loss and heartache alone and deemed her as a heartless
creature that could kill its own kin.
“So, you opted to punish me in your own way through insulting words and inflicting pain from the
moment I woke up
up with no memory of that day.”
Her voice never once crack, even though she felt her emotions choking her.
