Alpha's Rejected Mate Returns as Queen

Yarin was cute when angry, just like other children his age, with puffed cheeks and round eyes. However, this was not a reason for me to be soft-hearted. Reporting him was equivalent to reporting me, but at least he would not be hurt.

He mumbled to himself as if shocked that I had lied to him.

This silly boy, did it mean that the people close to him would not lie to him?

"My patience is limited," I deliberately threatened him. "And you only have one chance."

Yarin thought hard for a long time and reluctantly said, "... Kara died. Because of this terrorist attack, Heller, the driver, and I were all safe. She seemed to bear all the pain and suffering for us, and she didn\'t even have time to hold on until the ambulance arrived…"

When he said this, he was initially sorrowful, but then it gradually carried a sense of strong hatred. He stared at a withered grass as if it was his enemy. He wanted to crush it with the soles of his shoes.

With a bad feeling, I said, "You know that terrorists will eventually be caught, right? I\'m very sorry for Kara\'s death, but I don\'t think she would want to see you do anything out of line because of her death."

"I know," he said, avoiding my eyes. "But what\'s the point of being caught? Lily, do you think they will be punished?"

I knew he wasn\'t referring to the laws, not even the werewolf laws.

I knew what was happening with the human city next to the Silver Moon Pack\'s, so I knew Yarin must have known something.

And what scared me the most was the hidden meaning he revealed. Was he indignant that the terrorists wouldn\'t pay with their lives? He wanted someone to pay the price? If no one else could, would he do it himself?

Was this what he wanted to do? Kill the terrorists to pay tribute to Kara?

I found it absurd.

Yarin was only a twelve-year-old child! His thighs were not even as thick as the arms of the terrorists. How could he kill them? He could not even guarantee his safety!

"Whatever you want to do, stop and go back to the hospital." I took a deep breath and tried to be calm. "I won\'t tell anyone about this, but you don\'t have to do anything, okay? You know it\'s very dangerous. You might even lose your life. Think! Think about Heller. Think about your parents. Would they be willing to lose you?\'"

"Heller understands me, Dad and Mom… I know that their hearts are filled with hatred, but because of their status, they can\'t do anything." Yarin was not moved by that.

"If you want to tell them, go ahead, Lily, but I must do it. I may fail, but I have to try. I will seize every opportunity to avenge Kara. Even if I fail this time, I will chase them to the prison and stab their throats with a sharpened plastic toothbrush!"

His stubbornness and viciousness shocked me. He seemed to have switched personalities and was no longer the smiling little boy I was familiar with!

But was I supposed to let him deal with the most vicious criminals? He would fail! He would get hurt! He would die!

I tried to calm him down, but Yarin turned a deaf ear to everything, which made me notice his age - twelve years old, on the verge of puberty, and full of a rebellious spirit. When my emotions were on the verge of exploding, the more I opposed him, the more determined I would be.

But I couldn\'t really let him go alone.

An absurd and bold idea gradually formed in my mind.

If I said it out loud, I might be doomed. I should think more, not be like a primary school student with a fevered head and no rationale, but who said I was not young?

Primary school students and high school students were not much different. People see us as \'children\'. Children always have the right to be willful. So maybe I could lose my mind a little?

"If…" I worked hard to organize my words. "I mean, if you must go, I can also help you keep the secret."

Yarin\'s eyes lit up, but I continued, "There are conditions, kid, unless you can find a chaperone."

"A chaperone?" Yarin asked in confusion. "But that means more people will know about my plan? You know I have to keep it a secret. No one will agree to it."

I looked at him without saying anything.

A few seconds later, Yarin widened his eyes and asked in disbelief, "Are you referring to yourself? Lily, you want to come with me?"

I nodded. "If you want to keep it a secret and I want to ensure your safety, then the easiest way is for us to go together, right? This way, a third person won\'t know your secret, and I\'ll be able to escape when your life is in danger."

"But this is very dangerous. I can\'t let you take the risk..." Yarin hesitated.

"So you do how dangerous this is? Hah, if you think it\'s too dangerous for me to go, then there\'s no doubt you can\'t either. Make up your mind, kid. My patience is limited."

I pretended to \'threaten\' him.
