Alpha's Rejected Mate Returns as Queen

Yarin’s POV:

There were three boxes wrapped in layers on the table. I couldn’t sense anything under the effect of the seal.

The werewolf grandmaster unlocked the first one. After breaking the layers of seals, a fishy smell assaulted my nose.

“How do you feel?” they asked.

“It’s an indescribable smell. It’s like a large pile of fish scales and seaweed fermented overnight.”

Inside the box was a small antique comb. Judging from the rusty black appearance and the dull pearls, it was not a modern imitation.

The werewolf grandmaster nodded, carefully sealed the antique comb again, and then took out the item in the second box.

This time, the smell was much better than before, like lavender with honey, but under a careful sniff, one could still smell the faint smell of rust, like fresh blood.

Without waiting for a question, I told him 1 felt.

The werewolf grandmasters looked at each other, nodded, and sealed the withered flower.

When the third box opened, I immediately felt the smell was very familiar.

As expected, the silver coin was lying in the box.

But this time, it was a little different. The smell wasn’t as strong, and it wasn’t unbearable anymore.

After the test, the werewolf grandmasters gathered and discussed for a while. During this time, the doctor showed us the test report. On it were all my physical data during the test.

“It’s very obvious. Your Highness’ physiological values did not fluctuate beyond the range. Combined with the previous examination, we can rule out a problem with physiological factors,” Craig said. Now, it was up to the werewolf grandmasters to conclude.”

The grandmasters didn’t discuss it for long. About half an hour later, they returned with the results.

“Many inspections have failed to find any trace of evil power on Your Highness, so the possibility of Your Highness suffering from sensory imbalance due to contamination is very low.”

“The three items just now are the hair comb of the fallen god’s believers, the decorative flowers of the ancient arena, and the silver coin contaminated by evil forces. These three items contained a rich residual power. Generally speaking, they had to go through a rigorous test to distinguish their essence. Ordinary people cannot see anything special about them.

“The ‘smell’ that Your Highness smelled on them is highly consistent with the materialization characteristics shown in the witchcraft test. Therefore, this is actually an ability to understand essences. His Highness’ perception of the silver coin has deviated twice. This is not because the silver coin has changed but because there is a change in its behavior.

“So this is not a problem with His Highness’ physiological senses, but a temporary state of ‘supersense’. This state is gradually disappearing, which is a good thing. Overusing the superpower would overdraw His Highness’ soul. The fact that it could self-repair meant that the situation was not serious. It could be self-healed through the adjustment of the soul itself.”

The werewolf grandmaster’s words made my parents heave a sigh of relief. When they turned around and saw I was still in a daze, my mom smiled and hugged me. “Don’t worry, my dear. Your soul is strong. It’s working hard to repair itself.”

“If Your Highness thinks that this is too slow,” the werewolf grandmaster interrupted at the right time, “We can also artificially intervene to speed up the self-healing of this state. It will not cause any harm to you.”

“How long will it take for self-healing?” my dad asked.

“From the past cases, it usually takes half a month to forty days. Manual intervention can shorten the time by about half. It can’t be faster, or there’s a risk of losing the soul.”

I discussed it with my parents and felt forty days was a little long. After all, I would start school soon.

This was my first semester in junior high school. I didn’t want to take a leave of absence from the beginning and miss the opening ceremony. Therefore, we decided to start human intervention after we returned to the Lycan pack to make the supersenses disappear as soon as possible.

After making sure that there were no problems, we could leave. I had made an appointment to meet Lily at night. 1 didn’t want to spend the night in the suburbs.

Although my parents were very calm, I could tell they had been worried about me until now. I felt a little guilty as 1 watched their brows finally relax.

“I’m sorry, Dad and Mom. 1 made you worry again,” I whispered. “I promised you to take care of myself, but 1 always liked to show off and cause trouble.”

My mom sat beside me and asked gently, “Of course not. Yarin, why would you think that?”

“We agreed not to use my mimicry ability casually, but 1 ignored you and the doctor’s words, almost causing me to be unable to clean up the mess…”

“No, no, son, this is different.” My mom nudged my forehead affectionately.

“If you’re being mischievous, 1’11 teach you a lesson. But you did this to save people, didn’t you? The situation was indeed critical. Lily and countless innocent people would have suffered if you hadn’t done that. So this is different, Yarin. You just did what a werewolf and a prince should do. You don’t have to blame yourself.

“Critical moments don’t give us much time to think, and your decision makes us proud..”
