His Sweet Little Mate Novel Chapter 148

“As the queen of this kingdom, it is my responsibility to shoulder this burden of overseeing everything in the kingdom when our king is absent. So I hope you will all cooperate with me.”

As soon as those words left her lips, pin drop silence fell in the great hall for a moment, before various disagreeing voices rose in the air, plunging the room into chaos.

“Does she even understand what she is talking about?”

“She is still wet behind the ears, but dares to order us around?”

“How preposterous! Even if the king is here today, he has to give us some face. Who do you think you are?”

Several other voices echoed, as they expressed their dissatisfaction over her audacious decision. She didn’t even discuss anything with them, even though she said she was here to have a discussion.

“Do you call this a discussion? You are clearly trying to throw your non-existent weight around here.”

“You think you can come here and act as you please just because the king always has your back?”

On the other hand, Abby waited for them to bark all they wanted as she stood in her place, with her arms folded across her chest while her face gave away nothing. She saw how almost all of them felt offended by her order.

Yes, it was an order, not a request. So she was not in a hurry to explain herself. She even stopped Alan from going forward to stop them when a couple of elders let their egos get the better of them. “We won’t agree to this unreasonable request of yours.”

“You don’t even know how to take care of yourself, but here you are, saying you want to shoulder the responsibilities of the queen, where you need to think about thousands of people’s well being?” Except for Arthur, almost everyone protested until they realized Abby just stood there, watching them with this blank expression on her face, and slowly their voices died down as they began staring daggers at the girl.

However, the recipient of their ire didn’t seem to be bothered at all, as she finally opened her mouth again. “I know I’m still inexperienced, isn’t it why I’m here, seeking your guidance?”

Her very first sentence left them tongue tied, because the girl just said what she had in her mind before they started shouting at her that she was trying to bite off more than she could chew. It was them who didn’t give her any chance to talk about her purpose of coming here.

They just assumed things when she said she wanted them all to report to her. However, before they could feel embarrassed for their collective outburst, Abby continued to rip them a new one with every single sentence of hers.

“And even if I want to, taking care of this kingdom’s matters isn’t something I can wash my hands off, since I’m the queen of this kingdom.”

She couldn’t be more correct, because she was indeed the queen and the destined mate of their king. And, it was expected of her to take on different kinds of roles to assist the king whenever it was necessary In this case, she was the most suitable person to deal with this crisis, after all, just because the king wasn’t here, nothing would stop. Since everything had to go on as usual, in his stead, wasn’t his queen should be the one to lead them forward?

Hearing her, their gazes slowly cooled down as they approached the matter more rationally, but Abby didn’t give them an opportunity to make any suggestions regarding this matter. “Who else will be more suitable to take up this role with all of you being busy dealing with your own duties?”

True to her words, even though they were relatively free compared to the king, they too had their own duties to attend to, otherwise, how could such a large kingdom like theirs be run without major catastrophes with only a single king overseeing everything?

It was impossible for a single person to rule almost ten territories, which included nine werewolf packs and the capital city.

And when they finally looked like they were all convinced of her reasoning, Abby chose to say something which was very obvious, eliminating any possibilities of them backtracking again. “And I’m carrying King Micah’s baby, who is none other than the heir of this kingdom, in my womb.”

With her final stroke, everyone could only accept that no one other than Abby was suitable enough to carry out the job with Micah’s whereabouts remaining unknown, except for Arthur who looked like he wouldn’t hesitate to pounce on Abby and kill her for ruining her plans. Only he couldn’t do anything.

Because, the representatives of several packs, who had been silent for the entire fiasco, were the first to give up the idea of rebelling against Abby, because it would only count as them rebelling against the throne at this point.

However, the feeling of following the lead of a woman, whose origins were less than satisfactory while she was deemed weak, did not seem pleasant to most of the councilors. Only they couldn’t do anything about their dissatisfaction with Alan backing Abby up openly.

After saying her piece, the girl ended this impromptu meeting and left the great hall, letting Alan lead her to the strategy room.

Only after the royal beta closed the door behind them did she finally let out the breath she had been holding back. It really wasn’t easy to confront several people who harbored nothing but hate for you. But then she didn’t have enough time to feel relieved yet, because she had even more important things to deal with, so she immediately faced Alan.

“Alan, I want you to send a few people to investigate what happened on Micah’s side.”

Hearing her, Alan had this complicated look on his face. “But no one knew where the rogue base they left to fight the enemy was.”

Abby was also aware of this, but they had no time to stall anymore. “At least we know the forest they headed to. So send a few capable people, specialized in tracking there.”

Even though Micah discussed everything with her, she never thought of asking the exact location of the rogue base and only knew it was somewhere in the forest to the east of the mountain where they found the cave they believed Calpin was restrained in.

No matter how many missives Alan tried to send to the king or the others, none of them made it to the recipients, as the messenger birds couldn’t track them, so Abby had to resort to this.

So now the situation became a little tricky when they didn’t receive any news from Micah for more than a month.

But Abby didn’t lose hope, Micah would be found. She would

everything in and beyond her power to make it happen.


With the royal beta assisting Abby in the matters related to the kingdom, while the people hailing her as the most compassionate ruler, the few voices against Abby were slowly but surely snuffed out, as some of them finally started to warm up to her.

But there were still people like Fabron, who couldn’t stomach the fact that a woman was in charge of such important matters like handling court and the rest.

“Sir Arthur, I don’t understand what

the others see in her. She is just a woman, someone so weak, how could they let her poke her head wherever she pleased?” The elder literally seethed, watching on as Abby made an exit from the great hall with her personal guard in tow.

It had been two months since that grand showdown in this very great hall when she ordered them like they were her servants and after hearing her twist a few words, these

mindless old men were all wagging

their tails in front of her, almost

pledging their loyalty to her. Content

However, Arthur didn’t say anything in response to his ranting, but the man continued his monologue. “Hasn’t it already been almost three months since King Micah went missing? She wasn’t even able to uncover that mystery, yet she wants to play queen here?”

Still there was no response from the former king, but it didn’t discourage this elder to continue. “Won’t everything fall in place if they just proposed for you to take this role?”

This wasn’t the first time for Fabron to openly go against the queen. In fact, he had been singing the same tune every other day since Abby made her intentions clear.

On the other hand, Arthur couldn’t give himself away by openly coveting his own son’s throne, so Fabron received the same response as he did everytime he brought this topic up in front of the former king. Silence.

And all Fabron could do was frown even harder. At first, several voices echoed with him, as they all tried to nitpick everything the girl did, but gradually, they all had to stop being difficult seeing Abby doing just fine.

Even though Abby found it a little difficult to navigate around the court matters and the kingdom matters in the beginning, she soon managed to gain a better understanding of how things worked around here making more and more of the royal councilors relent.

On the one hand, the girl was a little relieved that she could hold the fort together in Micah’s absence. On the other hand, the anxiety that kept racking her body only grew day by day when there wasn’t any news on her mate’s whereabouts for months and months on until one day.

Abby was almost six months pregnant when one of the trackers they sent in search of the king finally wrote back, but the paper didn’t hold the positive news she had been hoping to hear.
