Chapter 113
“You got some nerve.” Leon pinned her with this hatred filled gaze as he stepped forward, making Abby scrunch
her nose in disgust. “To think you could replace my daughter, tsk, what happened now? All you got was a ruined
coronation.”
His lips parted into a viscous snarl when he thought how much his precious daughter suffered because of this heathenish woman. His blood boiled in fury just at the sight of her.
On the other hand, Abby was genuinely shocked by his taunt. “I replaced your daughter?”
Where did he get that idea from? She was Micah’s destined mate, alright?
“If you had just died in whatever ditch you crawled out from, my daughter would have become the queen of this kingdom long back,” Leon said, looking almost manic.
Everyone in the entire capital city thought Micah would take Ruby as his chosen mate if he couldn’t find his mate. Moreover, Ruby was revered highly by everyone, be it how meticulously he raised her or her birth origins.
She was the perfect woman to stand by Micah’s side, more so, to sit on the throne beside him as the queen, but at the last minute, this wild girl popped out of nowhere with her laughable origins and uncivilized nature, wrapping the king to her little finger just because she was his destined mate.
“First you dared to steal her position, then you made Micah punish her, don’t think no one can see through your insecurities,” the former royal beta growled out each and every word when he recalled how Ruby had to stay confined to their house for an entire month, just because this girl was jealous of her.
His daughter only wanted to give her childhood friend some face and help his wild mate find some friends in the capital, but she didn’t know what was good for her.
“You schemed against my daughter when you saw she was better than you in all aspects and felt threatened, after all, you too knew you could offer nothing to Micah,” Leon said righteously when Abby just looked at him, shocked.
In his eyes, it looked like she was incredulous because she was exposed by him. He believed his daughter to be noble, so it must be Abby who couldn’t digest the amicable relationship between the King and Ruby. Anyone with a brain could tell she was just trying to control Micah

“And the same was proved again when you made a fool out of yourself in front of everyone yesterday,” Leon laughed derisively. “You think just anyone can become a queen? Your failed coronation speaks volumes of your inability.”
Faced with his continuous taunts, Abby remained unfazed as only her gaze hardened with each word that escaped his mouth. But when he repeatedly pointed out that the ceremony was ruined because of her, she couldn’t tolerate it anymore.
“Failed or not, I’ve already been crowned by the King and I’m your queen now, whether you and that pretentious daughter of yours can accept it or not, that is your truth now.”
When Abby realized why he was doing what he was doing, she didn’t really plan on wasting her breath talking to him, but Micah told her not to tolerate disrespect toward herself and she didn’t want to let him down. She wasn’t going to crumble because of some small taunts anymore.
On the other hand, Leon felt like she was displaying false bravado and he wished he could just snuff out her life like he would an insect that irritated him.
But then, he remembered it was only a matter of time before this girl would disappear and this made a smirk appear on his face again. “I’ll see how long you are going to hold that position.”
When Abby looked at him in confusion, he revealed a menacing glare. “Now that I have come this far, do you think you could escape death? In your dreams!”
He then turned and walked toward the door, but before he closed the door behind him, he threw a few words over his shoulder that left Abby dreading the next few hours in this crappy room.
“I’ve already alerted the rogues, someone will be here shortly to escort her dear highness to her death bed, until then, cry in your misery.”
“How dare she think she could live happily after what she had put his daughter through?
Once those savages got a handle of her, only then this stupid half witch would learn her place.
“Step aside, Father, I won’t ask for a third time.” Micah glared at Arthur, who stubbornly tried to block his path.
“It isn’t me who needed to step back, but you. You should actually turn around and go to the dungeons to

interrogate those rogues,” Arthur stood his ground. No matter what happened today, he was going ton make Micah understand his mistakes. “Your priority is the rogues and gathering information on that dark sorcerer, before it is too late and

“I know my priorities well enough…”

Arthur cut his son off in the middle as
he got disgruntled at him. “Then you would finish what you have started,
I
not find that useless ake a detour to mate of yours who only knows how
to cause trouble for you.”
“One more word about her and you
will see what more I can do for her,” Micah threatened Arthur openly, when his father insisted on blaming Abby for something she wasn’t responsible for.
“Now you are threatening me? How could you stoop so low for that half witch?”
Arthur couldn’t believe his own son was having a full blown fall out with him for
that woman. Just what kind of
spell did she cast on him until he couldn’t decipher between what was good and
bad for him?
“Enough!” Micah roared, feeling his patience for his father run thin. “Guards!
Escort the former king back to his
room and watch him closely! He needs to rest because of old age, just like the
former
queen.”
