The Jinzi Manor, Central Street, Xerulean City
18 years ago...
A serious matter entangling the alpha's birth occurred in the Jinzi Family.
"Chairman Jinzi, the birth of your first child is supposed to be celebrated. But, this little baby already manifested alpha pheromones since birth. Chairman, you can see his condition even just by giving him a glance," a female doctor, wearing a sexy white uniform spoke calmly. She was holding a device that displayed the clinical pad with the newborn's information.
Name: Jinzi, Weifeng
Class: Inborn Male Alpha
Pheromone Type: Devourer Scent
There was no need for her to examine the newborn under various tests. This baby boy had actually manifested all the traits right after Mrs. Jinzi gave birth to him!
"Weifeng's birth brings joy to me and my husband. Doctor, why do you look troubled? I've delivered this healthy baby successfully. We should be happy for the birth of the heir of the Jinzi family!" Mrs. Jinzi spoke softly. Her hand gently brushed the newborn's tiny fingers.
"He is physically healthy right now but his pheromone is already manifesting. Even if he is from the alpha family, pheromones manifest during the age of 16. I'm genuinely worried that his body has no time to adjust. Mrs. Jinzi, have you heard of the rare cases of birth about an inborn alpha syndrome?"
Before Mrs. Jinzi could respond, her husband raised his hand and gestured for the female doctor to stop. "Enough. My wife just gave birth and needs to rest. Let's talk about this later."
The female doctor raised her brows and subsequently shook her head. "No, sir. His situation is a matter of importance. Surely, you understand the consequences if I don't inform your wife about the baby's condition?"
"What consequences?" Mrs. Jinzi looked troubled as she faced their family doctor.
"About the situation... Baby Weifeng already possessed the Devourer Scent. It's an exceptionally dominant and possessive pheromone."
"That's excellent! My baby will be the perfect heir! Strong and exceptional!" Mrs. Jinzi interrupted. Yet, the doctor's expression only turned darker.
-
"As I said his scent is already this strong. It would be fine if this pheromone manifested when he is already 16. However, as a delicate infant... it will be very difficult for the baby to control this strong pheromone at his age. There is a chance that the baby might grow with no sense of reason. So... I recommend the chairman and Mrs. Jinzi consider giving birth to another child." This doctor had deliberately maintained a three-meter distance from the bed just in case the chairman would react to her boldness.
-
She was the family doctor of the Jinzi Family. To ensure a healthy heir, she had no choice but to cross the line and voice her opinion.
On the other hand, upon hearing her words, Mrs. Jinzi abruptly turned her head to her husband. Her face almost looked miserable. It was obvious that she was offended by it.
But, her husband remained calm while sitting silently on the chair next to her bed.
"Why are you cursing my baby, doctor? I just give birth to him and you are already spouting nonsense!" Mrs. Jinzi exploded at the lack of reaction from her husband. She directed her anger to the doctor.
The family doctor looked extremely unsettled too. She was aware that her words were very insensitive.
But, as the family doctor, she had the responsibility to inform them about how serious an inborn alpha could be.
"Devourer Scent is an extremely powerful pheromone. It is one of a kind. But, it had been known as a double edge sword. Chairman, I don't need to explain to you these facts," the female doctor expressed as she tried to manage her composure.
-
Chairman Jinzi slightly nodded his head. He was aware and was also worried. But, in front of his wife, he had to maintain his composure and pretend that everything was under control.
"Ahhh... I'm aware of course! But, as the head doctor of this family, please find a way for my son to overcome the Devourer Scent. Surely there has to be a way?"
-
"Chairman, even our advanced pills cannot neutralize the Devourer Scent. The only way is for him to gain complete control of the pheromones. If the baby could not control it, his sanity would eventually be devoured by the scent," the doctor whispered helplessly. Her eyes moved to the mother of the child before she released a deep sigh.
-
"I don't want my firstborn to become useless and turned into a sl*ve of his pheromone. Doctor, please look for some cases of similar situations and find an appropriate solution," Chairman Jinzi calmly spoke and glanced at the newborn baby on the bed. His pheromone was indeed spreading rapidly as if demanding complete dominance inside the bedroom.
-
It would have been fine if the baby was just simply an inborn alpha with normal dominant pheromones. At least, he could live a life of freedom. But, with the Devourer Scent within him, his life would really be chained by it.
-
The doctor secretly took a deep breath and sighed. "I will do my best to find a solution. But, let me set the expectation of the Chairman and Mrs. Jinzi first. Most cases of inborn alpha have their first rut at the age of 19. Once Weifeng experiences his first rut, the Devourer Scent would manifest aggressively. It's the crucial period for him to execute complete control of his pheromones. Or else, he will lose his sanity."
-
"So... there is still time to train our baby Weifeng? 19 years is enough!" Mrs. Jinzi commented with a hopeful expression on her face.
"I will do some medical experiments for your sake. And train your son to be the strongest. But, I hope you will also consider my initial recommendation. Give birth to another child. I'm sorry for being blunt but it's better to have a certain heir to the Jinzi family," the female doctor responded. She then offered a customary bow and left the room.
-
"Weifeng will become strong! Don't talk nonsense!" Mrs. Jinzi exclaimed in fury but the doctor did not even spare a glance at her.
The Jinzi Family was the most influential alpha family in Xerulean City. They were highly respected by other alpha families.
It had been known to the public that this family followed a tradition to give birth to only one son to avoid a bloodbath during the succession.
Despite the doctor's warning, Mrs. Jinzi was too determined to just have one heir. This left the female doctor on the lookout for the young master Weifeng. She had been monitoring him anxiously day after day.
~~
As years go by, the baby boy was subjected to intense physical training. Their priority is to make him overcome his rut.
And just to ensure that he would be able to manage his pheromone once his first rut occurs, Weifing's parents were too focus of his developments.
With his daily vigorous activity, his figure grew into a fine masculine body that could make all the omega in the city droll at the sight of him. Even at his present age of 18, he was already 6 feet tall.
Weifeng had become an eye-turner. His presence would demand to be noticed. Even those beta had been hoping to get his attention.
Weifeng's security team that accompanied him was even tighter than before. Wherever he go, some personal guards would eye his movements.
He became the best fighter in the city. Yet, he needed to be monitored!
As a dominant alpha, such an arrangement was something that he had been complaining about since he was young.
"My mother and father are very overprotective. They won't even allow me to join the school camping without your recommendation. Doctor, why are they so afraid of my pheromone?" Weifeng expressed his detest once more.
The young master was inside a private testing room and his body had been constantly emitting dark pheromones.
Because of the Devourer Scent that he possessed, the doctors had required him to discharge pheromones regularly.
"Young master, it's because the Chairman and your mother were worried about you. Once your rut comes, we have to make sure that you can at least stabilize your pheromones. Otherwise, your pheromones will control you!" the doctor explained while her attention did not leave the monitoring screen.
It had been 18 years of her life that were dedicated only to ensuring that this Jinzi heir would remain healthy.
-
"Doctor, based on your report, it is said that my rut will come next year. Then, I should be fine attending the school camping this week, right?" Weifeng argued. His voice turned low and a certain coldness flashed in his eyes.
-
"That timeline is just something that I have predicted based on the cases of inborn alpha. But, it's not sure. Young master, your rut may come earlier. So, it's better to be cautious. Young master, forgive me for saying this... but, please don't be selfish and just follow your parents." The doctor continued examining the discharged pheromones around him as the harsh words came out of her mouth.
-
Before Weifeng could refute, she spoke again. "Even with the regular discharge, it is still denser than the normal alpha pheromone. This is why we have to monitor you, young master."
-
"Doctor, you really don't hold back with your words. But, I'm already 18! Those personal guards are too absurd! If mom and dad don't approve of my decision this time, then, I have no choice but to go there without their permission! You can call me selfish. I don't care." Weifeng exhaled and his gaze subconsciously move in the direction where eight men in a black suit stood.
"You don't care? Hah! Young master, please don't be like that! Your parents are worried about your safety because the greatest threat is inside your body. If your pheromones control you, it is equivalent to becoming insane."
"Hmmph! It's just a camping activity!"
"Still too risky! It doesn't matter whatever activity! Even if your parents would agree, I won't allow you to get out of the city!"
-
Weifeng clenched his fist and momentarily closed his eyes. "Doctor, why don't you just give me a recommendation letter? It's unfair that all I have been doing outside school was training. I really want to join the school camping!"
-
"I apologize, young master. That will not happen. I won't put you in danger," the doctor spoke with no trace of emotion in her tone.
As the family doctor, she was assigned to monitor the health of the Jinzi heir. Her years of dedication would be wasted if something would happen to this young man while he was out of the city. "Perhaps, I am also selfish... But it's the only way," she murmured only to herself.
-
"Fine! I won't bother you anymore, doctor." Weifeng sighed as he took a step out of the testing room. No matter what he say, she would not actually show any reaction to his plea.
-
He marched out of the clinic and returned to his class with a deep thought in mind. 'How should I persuade my parents this time?'
When his class ended, Jinzi was escorted by his personal guards. They never leave his side until he reached his room.
"I'm so tired of living like this! Aren't alphas supposed to freely socialize?" he loudly complained in annoyance.
"Why are you sulking, Weifeng? Are you asking for a beating?"
Hearing the cold voice of his mother, Weifeng stiffened for a split second.
-
Then, he adjusted his expression and faced his mother with a warm smile, "Mom! Your son wants to join camping! I have never hung out with my friends outside this house. Sometimes, I could not help but question if my pheromones had made me a fragile alpha in your eyes! Mom, please?! Just this once!"
-
"What if your rut will come while you are away? How are you going to handle it?" his mother sternly spoke. But a glint of tenderness actually flashed in her eyes.
If only she had agreed to the doctor's recommendation back then and gave birth to another son, maybe... just maybe, Weifeng would not live a difficult life!
