Untamed: The Alpha

95 THE TEST

Blue was taken to the principal’s office, where she saw two men, seemingly waiting for her and another three children that had been brought earlier to be tested.

The three children were a crying mess by the time those people were done taking a sample of their blood to be examined.

Blue looked at the two men with a face devoid of any emotions. She didn’t show how restless she was or how hard she was trying to wreck her brain to get an idea, so she could avoid being tested.

“What is this?” Blue lifted her head and asked Ms. Sophia. “I don’t like injections.”

Ms. Sophia caressed her back and smiled softly at her, as she sat the little girl down on the chair to face one of the men, while the other one, was testing a blood sample, mixing it with some kind of clear liquid and shaking it slightly, so it could be blended well.

“They are free to go,” the other man said about the three children.

It meant they were not non- human beings, so the green color was for humans? Blue immediately took a mental note of this information.

“What is that?” Blue looked at the three blood samples that turned into green color.

“This is nothing little girl, we will just take your blood, okay?” The man tried to act friendly with her and even touched her white hair, but Blue swatted his hand away.

.....

“Don’t touch my hair,” she said sullenly. She didn’t like it when someone touched her hair without her consent, that was annoying.

The man was slightly taken aback, but he didn’t seem to take it personally, as he carried on with his job.

“Your name is Blue McKeltar,” he muttered under his breath. “So, you are the daughter of Knox McKeltar...” Even though it was subtle, Blue could see the change in his gaze, as if they realized something. “Your hand please.”

Blue looked around her, she was trying to find an escape route for herself, yet she couldn’t find any.

The door was being blocked by a man in dark uniform, while the windows were grilled, so there was no way she could break them.

“Come on, girl, your hand, so we can finish this fast.” He stretched out his hand and Ms. Sophia also tried to take her hand as well.

“I am afraid of injections.” For now, using that reason alone made sense to her. There were a lot of children that were afraid of injections.

“It’s okay, it’ll not hurt as much as you imagine, it will be done before you even realize it, just close your eyes, okay?” Ms. Shopia tried to persuade her.

Yet, Blue backed away from that man and knocked her knees on the table. She screamed in pain and cried out aloud.

All of the people inside the room were surprised, and Ms. Sophia immediately came to her and looked at her bruised knee.

“I will bring her to the infirmary first, maybe you can come with me and do it there,” Ms. Sophia gave them a suggestion and the man agreed with her.

Blue grimaced when she saw her poor knees, she had knocked them too hard and now she was in a lot of pain. Her eyes were filled with genuine tears.

For now, she just needed to wait for Gael to pick her up and let him handle the situation.

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

“What are you doing here?” Gael wound his car window down and looked at Nikolai, who was waiting for him in the same place, where he always picked up both of them. “Where is Blue?” He frowned when he couldn’t find the white haired girl.

“She is in trouble. Hurry! She is inside the school!” Nikolai was panicked and it greatly alerted Gael to see him like this.

“What is it?” He asked as he jumped out of the car and followed him into the school. Both of them ran down the corridor as Gael listened to Nikolai’s explanation.

They ran toward the principal’s room and found a child around Nikolai and Blue age wandering there.

“Is Blue still inside?” Nikolai asked the girl and she looked at him sheepishly.

“No, she injured her knees and now is in infirmary.” She pointed in the direction of the infirmary.

Nikolai didn’t forget to say ‘thank you’ to the little girl before they ran again toward the infirmary.

With every step that he took, Gael felt restless, especially when Nikolai couldn’t run as fast as he could, thus he carried him and the little boy tried to fight him back.

“Stay still!” Gael warned him. “You are so slow, now tell me where I need to go?”

“No! You missed the corridor, run back there, and then turn right!” Nikolai was hanging on the side of Gael’s hip, he felt embarrassed to be carried like this, but Gael was right, there was no way he could run as fast as he could.

Gael groaned and skidded before he turned around and ran back toward the direction that he told him to go.

The infirmary was slightly away from the principal’s room, therefore by the time they had arrived there, Blue’s injured knees had already been bandaged and there were two people, who were about to take a sample of her blood.

Gael put Nikolai down and then took his right hand, but when he saw the small patch on that hand, indicating his blood was taken from that hand, he took his other hand.

“This will hurt a little,” he warned him, but before the warning could be registered in Nikolai’s mind, he felt a sting on his left hand.

The same feeling that he felt when those people took his blood earlier.

“What is that?” He frowned, rubbing his hand, but he didn’t see anything on his skin.

“Stay here,” Gael didn’t answer him, he ruffled his hair and walked toward the infirmary.
