Chapter 4
Someone had locked her inside and threatened to beat her if she walked out of that nasty place. This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
This realization hit Micah so hard. He was trembling in anger, his whole body emanating killing intention, which could be sensed by Abby.
She misunderstood this as the man being angry with herself, so she bit her lip and stopped herself from crying. Her father would get even angrier whenever she cried out loud. She even stopped talking altogether.
Usually, this would make her father leave her alone pretty quickly with only a few beatings.
However, her silence didn’t sit well with Micah, she kept covering her face while curling her body in his arms. The sight of her was very devastating. Now under the moonlight, he could see how poor her condition was.
He was not sure what she had gone through, but those horrendous things had taken a toll on her, it had left her broken.
“I asked you a question! Who is going to beat you!?” Micah rarely lost his temper, but he couldn’t hold himself back this time.
Abby wanted him to stop shouting at her. It made her feel sick in the stomach, but then she felt him nuzzling against her neck, which made her whimper softly.
“What happened to you?” Micah whispered into her ear. His voice was helpless now and this confused Abby. Just a moment ago, he was full of rage, but a second later, he sounded very sad and

However, before Abby could understand what she felt, she heard someone coming.
“What are you doing here? The party is about to end and you have to say something.. who is that?” Alan asked, as he approached Micah. He could only see his back, but he was sure he was carrying a woman, her hair cascaded down his shoulder. “What are you doing to her?”
Alan hastened his steps and came closer to see how angry the King was, as he hugged the woman tightly and nuzzled her neck.
“Call a healer. I want the healer ready in my room once I am there,” Micah growled an order out.
“What? You are going to take her to your room? But, what about the party… you should be there…” Alan widened his eyes when it finally struck him. “Don’t tell me no… you found her?!” He widened his eyes in surprise. “Is it her?!”

“If the healer is not in my room before I reach, I will find another beta once we arrive in the palace.”
Alan had a thousand questions in his mind, but Micah’s threat was enough to shut him him to move. He immediately scrambled away from him to find the royal healer who came with
them.

Meanwhile, Abby couldn’t understand what they were talking about, her ears rang painfully, because of how scared she was. She couldn’t make out the details of their conversation and only recognized there
was someone else with them and this man would take her somewhere.
She would be doomed. She was going to be beaten up by her father. He would break her legs like he promised her.
Abby could start imagining the pain she had to go through. She wanted to plead with him again to let her go, so she could stay inside the warehouse. Her father couldn’t find out about this.
“Shush, little one. No one is going to hurt you. I will not let anyone hurt you.” Micah nuzzled her neck again, but it didn’t help to calm her down. He walked toward the pack house, where he needed the healer to check on his mate at once.
However, before he could reach there, he bumped into Hanna, or whatever her name was, since she was not important enough for him to occupy his memory.
“My King, what are you doing here? Everyone is looking for you. Who is.” Hanna gasped. She covered her mouth when she recognized the woman in the King’s arms. Even though she couldn’t see Abby’s face because she covered it with her palms and her unkempt hair, there was no way she couldn’t recognize her own sister. “What she is doing… what is happening?”
“Do you know her?” Micah asked through his gritted teeth. Rage filled his eyes.
“My King… she is…” Hanna didn’t know what to say. How should she answer that question? She couldn’t let the King know this shameful girl was her sister. “My King… she is a servant….
“A servant?” Micah narrowed his eyes. He could see through her lies. “While you are here, call your alpha to meet me in my chamber now.”
Even if she was a servant, it didn’t matter to Micah. He wanted to know what kind of treatment his mate had to go through, until she was like this.

Hanna was trembling in fear, but she couldn’t let the King leave with Abby. She didn’t slightest idea how the King found her, but it didn’t matter now.

“My King… please put her down, she will dirty your clothes. It is not necessary to carry her like that.” Hanna glanced at her sister, who seemingly shut herself down, something that she did whenever she felt this extreme anxiety and fear in her heart.
Whenever she was in a situation where she was overwhelmed, Abby would tune out her surroundings.
“You have a direct order from me.”
That was all Micah said before he continued to walk toward the pack house with Abby in his arms, leaving Hanna alone there.
For a moment, she stayed frozen in her place, too shocked to make a move, but then Hanna immediately rushed toward the party and informed her father about what happened.
“What?!” Beta Ryan clenched his fists. He had told that defected girl not to go out, but she actually
met with the King?!
She really needed to learn her lesson!
