UNTAMED: THE ALPHA

"Stop this."

In a swift move, Sol tackled Kyle down to the floor, he held one of his arms behind his back, while his other hand pressed his head against the cold floor.

If it was not for the bracelet on his wrist, Kyle could have shifted into his beast. It locked his ability to shift into his beast. He would have killed Sol in a single strike.

"Do it now," Sol said coldly, as he directed his attention toward Emily, who was standing behind the young lycan.

Sol didn't remember it clearly, because it was a project that the Hound carried out a long time ago, before he actively joined the organization, but he was sure that this lycan was the same lycan that managed to run away years ago.

He still had all the reports about this young lycan in his cabinet. He was classified as an S rank being in supernatural creatures, which was a very dangerous kind.

It seemed, Sol needed to take a look at it later.

"What are you waiting for?" Sol frowned because Emily didn't do anything and trembled like a little child. That was why he hated it when Alpha Liam sent this girl to be in this meeting, instead of Ariana, the person, whom they were in frequent contact with.

Emily was too young and was not tactful enough in this kind of situation. She didn't have quick reflexes.

"Emily," Colton called her, he approached the young girl and gave her a reassuring smile, which didn't help at all in her situation right now. "You need to do it."

"Why didn't you tell me about it?" Emily looked at Colton in disbelief. "Why didn't you tell us about this arrangement?"

Emily clutched onto Eros's shirt, trembling nonstop. She hated Kyle for what he had done in the past, but for her to be the one to inject this serum him with, it was too much, especially when she knew the consequences of it, whether it succeeded or not, the outcome was something that a shifter wouldn't be able to go through.

"Emily… please… don't…" Kyle implored, he was struggling under the weight of Sol's body, terrified, because he had never been in such a helpless situation where he couldn't fight a human like right now. "Don't do this to me…"

Emily looked at Kyle, she couldn't bring herself to do it to someone that she knew.

But, Colton pinched her chin and coaxed her to look at him instead, while Eros didn't do or say anything, he was still trying to gauge the situation and helping Kyle was out of an option right now.

"Emily." Colton made her look at him. "Do your job, or we can't go back home."

"But…" Emily tried to glance at Kyle, who was still trying to retaliate against Sol. Anyone could inject the serum, but it was her, who knew the exact dosage. The balance between the two serums was very crucial, thus she needed to concentrate on that aspect. "What if…"

"Do it. That's your job." Colton had never talked this firm to Emily, because both he and Ariana would look at her as their little sister, but apparently, right now was not the right time to take the situation so lightly. "Do it now, so we can go home."

Emily gulped down, she didn't want to take this huge responsibility, because she could end up killing Kyle or killing his ability as a shifter.

She then looked at Eros, asking for his help, but he didn't do anything, aside from saying; do it.

There was no way Eros would help Kyle, since they were not on good terms and after a moment of contemplation, he didn't find any benefit in going against the alpha's wishes, which meant they needed to follow what Colton had told them to do.

"Do it now, Emily," Eros said clearly, as he glanced at Kyle. There was no sympathy in his eyes for him whatsoever. He didn't feel bad for his fate. "So we can return immediately."

There was another reason Eros did not want to spend another hour in this place. He wanted to go straight to the Shadow Moon pack, because he didn't want to see her again.

Hearing that, Emily took the two tubes containing the serum with trembling hands. She didn't want to do it, but Eros told her to finish this task, so they could go back immediately to the pack. She was used to following his words, thus she didn't think this was the right time for her to not follow his instruction as usual.

Gulping so hard, Emily walked over to Kyle and did her job. She mixed the two serums in one injection. When she thought the dosage was right, she injected it to Kyle and then walked away from him.

Emily hid behind Eros, as Sol moved away from the shifter after he removed the bracelet from his wrist, it was necessary to make sure the serum was working, though it would put the people inside this room at risk if he started to shift into his beast.

That was why, Eros and Colton were ready to hold Kyle down, if he was about to lose his control.

However, before their eyes, Kyle squirmed, he whimpered and then screamed in agony as his body convulsed.

"What… what happened?" Emily was trembling at the sight before her eyes. This was terrifying. She was not able to watch this, but couldn't avert her eyes from it either.

After all, this was what she had done, she was the one, who had made Kyle like that.

On the floor, Kyle's body thrashed, as he rolled on the ground and his bones snapped into weird angles, every time the cracking sound of his bone was heard, he would let out a long howl. He was in great pain.

This was not the first time for Emily to see a shifter to shift into their beast, but Kyle right now didn't seem like he was going to shift into his beast, he was trying to, but there was something that was holding him back.

His legs twisted into weird positions and then snapped back into human legs before it changed again, the condition repeated a few times, until he stayed in his human's form, but sharp claws elongated from the tips of his fingers. As for his face, his jaw contorted and swelled slightly, like the muzzle of a wolf.

Though Kyle looked like a human, you could see his beast's side in his appearance right now. He was stuck in the middle of his transformation.

"What… what happened?" Emily clutched onto Eros's jacket, she was on the verge of crying right now.

"He is stuck in his transformation," Sol said after he analyzed it. "I think he is still alive. Why don't you check on him?" He looked at Eros, as he ordered him with his eyes.

Yet, Eros didn't budge, he didn't even spare him a glance at all, instead it was Colton, who checked on Kyle. He didn't need another dispute over something so trivial like this.

Colton knelt next to Kyle's body, which had stopped convulsing and then put his fingers against his neck to check his pulse.

"He is dead," Colton declared. Kyle's body was still warm, but there was no sign of his vitals. He had stopped breathing. It seemed the pain that he had to endure was greater than they expected and he couldn't endure it.

Emily felt her world crumble when she heard that. She had seen countless deaths, but she didn't think she would ever get used to it.

Yet, here she was, becoming the reason someone else lost their life.

If it was not for Eros, Emily would have fallen to the floor. He held her, placing his arm around her waist to support her body. The other people were talking about this, yet she tuned everyone's voice out.

"So, this is a failure?" Vanesha concluded, she moved closer to Sol and looked at him.

"No." Sol shook his head. "He tried to shift, but he couldn't and now his body is stuck in between." He analyzed the situation, while Colton took off his jacket and used it to cover Kyle's body. "For the first attempt, you can say this is a success. We just need to do more research on it."

Vanesha glanced at Emily, who was burying her face in Eros's chest.

"Good job, Emily," she said, but she earned a fierce glare from the young lycan. "You should try to be civil with me, we will cooperate like this more in the near future."

Yes, that was right, this wouldn't end here…

==========================

In the end, Kyle's dead body would be confiscated by Sol, because it was hard for them to take him out of this city, since they had to go through another inspection.

Just because Sol was the head of the organization, it didn't mean he could do whatever in this city and they couldn't let their cooperation be known.

"Is she sleeping?" Colton asked Eros, he stared at Emily, who was in his arms, while Eros just nodded and walked ahead of him.

However, Eros's steps halted when they were walking in the corridor toward their respective bedrooms, he remembered this scent…

And before Eros could think what he should do, there she was, the girl with white hair, walking straight toward him.
