Chapter 30 气:66%出 By the tAlyssa could get rid of Ruby’s maids, it was well past the afternoon tea time. As soon as she gor rid of them, she immediately relayed the information to a warrior so that he could inform Micah, since her rank wouldn’t allow her to go to the King directly. Micah was about to go to his own study after dismissing shigh ranked pack members in the evening when a warrior cto relay a piece of news about Abby. “My King, Lady Abby has been invited to a lunch date with Miss Ruby and her friends. She left right before lunch in the afternoon,” the warrior said after bowing to the king. When Micah received this news, he didn’t think much of it. He already told Abby that she could do whatever she wanted. He too thought Abby could make sfriends if she wanted to. He would respect her wishes even if she didn’t like Ruby and her lot whatsoever. He just wanted her to feel comfortable staying here, while he could be away almost all day and most of the night. And if making new friends could help her adjust to her life here quickly, it would turn out to be a good thing. “Okay, you can leave now,” Micah dismissed the warrior, thinking up to this point. But he didn’t forget to send two warriors to check on the situation when he remembered about the Fire festival. Micah didn’t think of summoning her back to the palace when he recalled Abby would enjoy the festivities as she never had the chance to go to one. The girl had been kept from all kinds of good things for a decade because of her father’s lapse of judgement. And since Abby was with several of Ruby’s friends from what he heard from the warrior, he thought of letting her enjoy a nice evening. It would be refreshing to explore the town on her own as well. She would be surrounded by an ample number of warriors anyway since she went with Ruby and her friends who were the precious daughters from the influential families of the capital city. They could manage this on their own.
However, just one hour into reading the reports he received from his warriors in the study, he saw another warrior rushing into the study and realized how wrong a simple thing could go. My King, they say Lady Abby got lost in the crowd during the festival,” the warrior was half panting and half speaking until Micah couldn’t understand what he was saying. But he heard the words lost and Abby and he felt his blood run cold. Apparently, the warrior seemed to have crunning back to the palace all the way from the festival, until he was panting. But Micah didn’t have the patience to let him catch his breath first. “What did you just say?” He was literally shaking, thinking how careless he had been. And a moment later, the warrior repeated what he said earlier, albeit panting again, but Micah paid close attention to his words and his eyes turned sharper by each word he heard. How furious he got after he got the gist of this piece of news was inexplicable. “How the hell did it happen?” He fumed as he stormed out of the room. 1/3 15:03 Fri, 8 Mar – 1 Chapter 30 Once outside, he saw Alan and barked an order at him. “Alan, follow me.” bb% Alan, who had just returned from smission to report to the King, was dumbfounded by the look on Micah’s face. But he followed him anyway when he knew it would not end well for himself if he stopped Micah right then just to satisfy his curiosity. “And you, what got your tongue? Speak now!” The King demanded as he midlinked almost all the warriors from the palace to gather in the front yard.. The warrior, who reported Abby’s missing news, felt weak in the knees but he could only swallow it as he didn’t want Micah to direct his anger at himself. “They said it was too crowded,” the warrior couldn’t finish the rest of his sentence when the king almost stopped walking and made everyone behind him, trip over their own feet. Micah was really furious that the warrior didn’t have the courage to continue what he was saying
anymore. “They didn’t bring any guards with them?” It was Alan, who asked the warrior, who couldn’t form any words, being scared to death by Micah’s death glare. “They did….” the other warrior, who was sent along with the first warrior to check on Abby, wanted to answer for his fellow warrior when the latter looked like he was about to faint from fear. “Then why did it turn out like this?” Micah almost roared and the second warrior was also scared. out of his wits. How could anyone lose a grown person with their heightened abilities and everything else? Alan could understand Micah’s feelings. Abby was completely new here and knew nothing about this place. He simply couldn’t imagine how she was now. Let alone how she was feeling now. Micah could swear on his life and say Abby would be scared to hell and back now. He felt rage so potent he was scared he would combust on the spot. However, before either of the two warriors could muster their non-existent courage, they reached the front yard, where they saw Ruby and her friends waiting together. As soon as one of the four girls saw Micah, they alerted Ruby and the girl immediately ran toward Micah, followed by her minions. Apparently, to report about the situation, they were waiting for the King to show up. Only before she could say anything, they all watched on with widened eyes and slacked jaws, as hundreds of warriors filled the front yard. “My King.” Ruby’s words stuck in her throat as she saw all those warriors falling in order in a disciplined manner before waiting for the King’s order. Ruby couldn’t believe her own eyes. 15:03 Fri, 3 Mar B
