Chapter 19

Micah brought a still shaking Abby to the guest bedroom prepared for himself in this pack house. The girl was rattled to say the least and the King couldn’t help but hug her gently.

Abby felt just right in his arms and the urge to never let her go intensified in his heart. Only he couldn’t act on it right now, as he had to deal with one more thing before they could leave for the capital city tomorrow.

By the time Micah returned, it was well into the night. He thought Abby would be fast asleep, considering how tired she must be both physically and mentally. But he found his mate staring out the window the moment he opened the door to the guest bedroom.
