Chapter 115
Abby felt really good when she went through her warning and showed these few rogues she wasn’t one to be trifled with as they pleased. The look of dread that crossed the remaining two rogues coupled with the way Leon terrified involuntary submission to her rebellion against his power display made her feel more alive than ever.
“Where do you think you are going, former royal beta Leon, didn’t you want to show me a good time? But now that I’m having fun, you aren’t even happy for me!” Abby clicked her tongue, her every word a sharp jab that poked more fear into Leon’s heart, who realized he just stumbled back out of fear toward this scaredy cat that couldn’t even look people in the eyes during her own ceremony.
When he said he would hand her over to the rogues, she was indeed terrified that she would lose her life tonight. But it didn’t take her long to realize she was strong too, when she relieved all her memories with Micah.
She fought with Calpin for god’s sake, just to save her mate, and she came out as a victor of that battle, so why was she letting fear and unnecessary
insecurities control her so greatly until she was sweating just at the mention of a few rogues by that hateful former royal beta?
After fighting that dark magic user, who created these puppets, why did she need to doubt herself whether she could deal a bunch of rogues or not, when she dragged countless of them through the mud back in the Black Claw pack?
She was giving way too much space for bad memories in her thoughts and now someone even thought he could scare her by using those pests.
This did not really leave a pleasant taste in her mouth and Abby decided it was time for her to fight against her own demons. She was determined to make a statement that she wouldn’t let her trauma control her any longer and they were just the right people to get her message across accurately.
‘And she would definitely have fun doing it!
Abby casually played with the fire balls on her palms as she pinned the men with this menacing gaze, as she took a step past the two rogues she had already dealt with.
“I thought long and hard while you went away to bring these pests for me to play with, and decided I couldn’t
not return your courtesy,” Abby said, looking really thoughtful as she burned the first rogue that tried to grab her earlier, sensing him lunge to his feet behind her.

This time though, the rogue’s whole body was on fire and Abby looked like the goddess of death with flames blazing behind her, which left the other two remaining rogues shuddering at the sight.
“Sneaking an attack… tch tch.” Abby shook her head, as she really despised such a cowardly act.
Leon paled as if he just saw a ghost, as his heart shook with the charring smell of flesh that left his stomach in knots. “Get her you idiots, what are you doing standing frozen like wooden dolls?”
Well, he wasn’t wrong about the last part though, they were indeed wooden dolls aka puppets in that bastard dark magic user’s hands.

The men exchanged a look, it wasn’t clear what they thought, but in the next second, they growled viciously, as if they didn’t just see their fellow rogues fall to their death right in front of them, and immediately shifted into their beasts, making this small room feel even more cramped.
But before they could throw their paws at her, Abby actually seemed to get bored of this game as she set this entire floor on fire, swiftly burning the remaining rogues in her fire as well.
She should have done this earlier, because once Micah saw her fire, escaping the fate Leon wanted for her would only be a matter of a few minutes and she would have returned to her
mate’s side within no time:
Only she wanted Leon to fall into her trap, feeling that getting rid of him was much more important than herself escaping first. It was clear he was working with Calpin and that reason alone was enough for her to want him dead
However, among the cries of agony that reached her ears, she couldn’t find any that belonged to the former royal beta.
Did he just fall to his death or had he escaped? She couldn’t tell, but she could hear the entire palace break into an uproar as they gathered around this building which caught fire out of nowhere.
At least, Micah would be able to notice the anomaly in the fire and realize it was her, and she wasn’t wrong, because the moment Micah reached the palace gates, he could see how fire was bursting from a building near his king’s tower and immediately dashed there.
“Abby…”
Her name escaped his lips both in relief and fear. He was sure this fire belonged

to his mate, because he saw it explode out of her when she fought with Calpin and had her power back lashed so badly.
It was still vivid in his eyes, because it became the source of his nightmares for the next fifteen days when he blamed himself that Abby slipped into a coma.
