His Sweet Little Mate by Obticeo Decatect

Chapter 45 “Please, don’t leave me,” Abby cried, pleading with the King while gripping the back of his shirt tightly.

The words Arthur said to her had been reverberating in her ears for the last few hours, the girl couldn’t help but break down in tears even harder when Micah pulled her into his arms to console her.

The thought of being abandoned by Micah didn’t sit well with her as she repeated the sthing over and over.

She buried her face in his chest once again as a fresh set of tears streamed down her cheeks, drenching his chest further.

On the other hand, the King was stunned by her pleas as he didn’t understand from where she got that idea.

“Little one, calm down. Look at me, please,” Micah literally requested her as he waited for a beat before holding her face in his palms again to look into her eyes carefully.

The sight that greeted him left him heartbroken as the girl looked like she would choke on her own tears if this continued for a while more.

“Abby, my sweet little one, what happened? Why would you think that | would leave you?” Micah couldn't help probing her when the sadness in the girl's eyes only increased at the gentle care he showed her.

Micah was particularly careful while handling her, just to avoid hurting her by accident.

But it only made Abby cry harder which left the King speechless.

“Please, don't cry. Just tellwhat happened. I'll make it right immediately,” Micah promised her, feeling his heart bleed for her.

All kinds of thoughts racked his brain, thinking of the various scenarios that could have hurt hist mate.

But he still couldn't settle on any. So the only option he had was to wait for Abby to calm down. enough and tell him on her own.

On the other hand, Abby didn’t know how to bring up the matter as her thoughts were still scattered with the emotions that were wrecking her frame.

She chose to burrow her head into his chest again and this tMicah realized he needed to give. her enough tto calm down first.

It took her a while to rearrange her thoughts but Micah didn’t lose patience with her as he kept. rubbing the back of her head or her neck to soothe her sadness while still holding her close to him with his other hand by her waist.

Abby felt so safe and peaceful in his arms, she slowly started to calm down a little. The intensity of her tears decreased under his genteel consoling and she finally felt ready to talk.

1/5 60% Chapter 45 “I- 1,” Abby started to talk, but felt her throat was clogged. She cleared her throat a little and backed away from his arms to look at him on her own.

She stared at him and bit her lips, fretting over how to bring up her concerns to his notice.

But then she knew there was no other way to do this than telling him directly about what actually happened.

On the other hand, Micah exercised patience as he silently encouraged his mate to continue talking as he rubbed soothing circles on her cheeks with his thumbs.

“Si- Sir Arthur cto meet me,” Abby started and saw how Micah looked confused at her confession.

“Sir Arthur?” Micah asked her in disbelief, to which she nodded her head in response.

“Yes,” Abby answered him truthfully and waited for the King to connect two and two together.

“He told you | would leave you?” Micah growled out the words. “Why in the world...” Why would he do that when he told him not to think about disturbing his mate for the meantime? Did he not get the hint when he warned him at all? Father or not, how could he tell his son’s mate to leave his son? Micah almost cursed at his father but stopped mid sentence when he saw sadness dulling Abby's features further.

This time, she didn’t wait for his prompt to answer his half spoken question. Even though tears threatened to fall from her eyes again, she steeled her heart to continue talking.

“He thinks you will soon realize how bad of a choice | am for the future queen.” Abby then told him what else the former king told her.

According to him, it was only a matter of tbefore Micah would realize she could do nothing useful to help him rule their kingdom..

She was weak and fragile, and constantly needed cajoling. That was what he determined and in his opinion, if she stayed, she was bound to let her heart get broken by her own mate.

That you will abandonwhen the mate bond finally fades away and you are not swayed by emotions anymore.” Abby had to suppress her grievances really hard to completely tell what really transpired on her walk with the former king.

“I'm really afraid that you will leaveone day, Abby blurted out in the end. She had to bite her lips to stop herself from sobbing louder now.

On the other hand, Micah was devastated to see her like this. He couldn't believe his father told her to leave the palace just because he thought she was not suitable for himself when it wasn’t even his place to decide it..

But getting angry at his father could wait, as he knew his mate needed him more now.

“Abby, little one. | will not do such a thing to you,” Micah started but Abby shook her head.

Chapter 45 immediately.

“No, you don’t understand.” Abby bit her lip, trying to find the right words to make him understand what she was really afraid of.

“There's nothing | need to understand. It’s Father that has to understand our bond and respect our union which was decided by the moon goddess,” Micah bit out in his haste to clear her fears.

He felt gutted that she would even have to doubt himself over it. And her next words only left him speechless again.

“What if you made a mistake?” Abby said finally, leaving Micah flabbergasted. She had this shattered look in her eyes, as if she dreaded the possibility of her own words turning into truth.

“Mistake?” Micah repeated after her when he realized she was genuinely afraid, only he could not understand where she was coming from.

“No one thinks I'm suitable for you...” The girl trailed off when a dangerous growl erupted deep from his chest.

Micah wanted to scream who else dared to say such things, but Abby grabbed his cheek to divert him and her touch immediately calmed him.

“But that’s not the point. Even | doubt if I'm really suitable for you. | don’t understand why | can’t feel the mate bond between us.” Abby continued, finally letting out what was really scaring her out of her wits.

She was afraid, really afraid, that the King made a mistake and thought of her as his mate.

One day, if he realized his mistake and wanted to abandon her, she would be truly alone in this world.

She had no one to turn to. Going to her father and Hanna was not even an option when they were still in this kingdom.

She couldn’t even go back to her pack if he really abandoned her.

How could she return to her pack where no one ever actually cared about her? Even though her father and sister had been banned and no one back at her pack would want to hurt her, she would have no face to return there.

After all, she left with the King as his destined mate in a very high profile manner. But if she went back now, it would be only a matter of tbefore everyone found out the reason.

Then her life would turn even thore miserable than when she was being tortured by her father and sister.

She thought about it long and hard. Her only chance at a good life, even though that life would be filled with challenges and hard things, was by staying beside Micah.

She literally had no one else to rely on except for the King who was the only person that ever treated her this kindly after her mother’s death.

16:15 Fri, 8 Mar Chapter 45 G She finally had shope for a good life after a decade and she didn’t want to lose this chance. No matter what.

On the other hand, Micah could see how hard it was for her. Whatever or whoever she had faced here so far had only left deep scars on her self esteem and he couldn't help but blhimself for not protecting her well enough.

He let things escalate until she was pushed to feel insecure.

The anger he felt at his inability to beca safe place for his own mate made him grit his teeth.

“I'm sorry, | haven't thought it through and gave people a chance to hurt y sincerely.

Micah apologized “No, what others think abouthas nothing to do with you. If | was good, they wouldn't have gotten a chance to point fingers at me,” Abby retorted in a beat.

But Micah didn’t let her continue when he disagreed with her completely. “You are perfect as you are, little one,” Micah declared, determination evident in his voice.

However, his mate shook her head again. “You feel so because of the mate bond,” she looked into his eyes as she uttered each and every word. “But | don’t want to let others’ words ctrue.” Micah looked a little confused at her words. He wanted to retort again and say the mate bond could only influence one’s actions so much.

Only Abby beat him to it as she pressed a finger to his lips to stop him from talking. She seemed to have made a decision and Micah felt his heart thump wildly, looking at her still red eyes shining with held back tears.

“I don’t want you to wake up one day and think you have made a mistake. | know I’m lacking in many things,” Abby started and when Micah started shaking his head, wanting to interrupt her, she held his face with both of her palms and tiptoed a little to press a small kiss to his cheek.

“I want to learn and becsomeone you would be proud to have as your mate,” she solemnly promised against his cheek.

On any given day, she wouldn't be this daring to initiate anything remotely intimate, but she was desperate.

The love he showed to her made her greedy for more. She didn’t want to lose him at any cost.

Also, she wanted Micah to understand how serious she was about himself and her life here.

“Maybe it will take a long time, but | will try my best to becsomeone who is worthy by your side. Please, be patient with me... please, don’t give up onyet. | promise, | will try my hardest to fight for you On the other hand, Micah couldn't help but feel moved by her declaration.

Even though he wanted to say that she didn’t need to do anything and he was more than capable enough to fight for both of them, he could understand where she was coming from.

4/5 16:15 Fri, 8 Mar RGB.

Chapter 45 And he believed she needed to becstrong in order to not let anything like this make her feel insecure about her position again.

Micah didn’t have any words to say as he nodded to every sentence that left her lips.

“Just don’t get impatient withbefore | can even start to understand what | have to do as your mate,” Abby pleaded with her mate, as she let her fears surface to her face again.

getting impatient with you is simply impossible, little one,” Micah proclaimed, his eyes filled with love and gentleness exclusive to Abby alone as he pressed his lips to hers.

Abby welcomed his kiss as she tiptoed while the King bent down to accommodate her.
