A/N: First off, this is the last of a triple update, so go back and read chapters 11 and 12 if you haven't already. Secondly, I'm sorry that it's taken so long between updates of newly edited chapters. Real life and a bit of writer's block on this particular story got in the way. I hope you enjoy the triple update my lovely subscribers!

Yesung knows the moment the virus takes a hold of Min Yeon as her hand goes from almost too cold to warm in a few moments. The pale color to her skin grows warmer and she’s curling into herself as if she’s got a stomachache. Yesung knows from experience dealing with Donghae’s change that she’ll need to be stripped of her clothing, which consists of the standard hospital top and pants, or she’ll end up ripping them to shreds when she starts shifting into wolf form.

A tiny part of him, a part Yesung hates admitting is there, is taking pleasure in the fact that he’s finally acknowledged the survivalist animal side of himself and is creating another shifter. The rest of him shudders in agony that he’s being forced to do something he’d sworn he’d never do ever in his life.

Yesung had been born as a shifter, so he’s never truly experienced the first shift like Donghae or Seungri, and he’s always assumed that his part in creating another shifter would be when he’s found his mate and decides to have children.

Sighing in resignation, Yesung lets Cloud take a bit of a lead in helping him undress Min Yeon, though he opts to leave her undergarments on, a blush stealing its way across his face. Contrary to how Jinki and Zhou Mi constantly for having fan girls, he’s only ever been intimate with one woman in his entire life, and she’d more than likely either died during the Japanese invasion, or afterward.

Cloud whines as a spasm grips Min Yeon’s body, the virus working quickly to heal her body. Yesung’s not sure what will happen since Min Yeon had been injured prior to the change. He’s half afraid she’ll go loup on him and that’s another horror he doesn’t want to think about.

The first sign of the shift has Yesung tensing a couple of hours later. The female’s voice comes over whatever speaker she’s got placed in the room. “I see you heeded my advice and changed her.”

“The danger is just starting.” Yesung hisses, Cloud echoing in his voice. “If she doesn’t recognize her wolf, she’ll go loup and have to be put down.”

“I’m pretty sure she won’t object to becoming a shifter.” The female replies, voice haughty and sounding sure of herself. Completely ignoring Yesung’s warning about Min Yeon possibly going loup, which worries Yesung more than normal, his gut and his shifter instincts telling him that with the severity of Min Yeon’s injuries from the accident, her chances of going loup are much higher.

The confidence the woman has about Min Yeon successfully changing sends off warning bells in Yesung’s mind. ‘How much does this woman really know about us? About our kind?’ Yesung asks Cloud silently.

‘I don’t know, that’s the problem.’ Cloud replies sadly. ‘And I can’t grasp a hold of the Pack bonds long enough to ask or give details about our location.’

The news dampens Yesung’s mood even further. It means the woman is either a rogue shifter, or the male partner she claims to be working with is one. There’s also the possibility that there are other supernatural beings out there that guarded their secrets just as closely as the Pack did and now they are making moves against the Pack.

The last thought sends a tendril of panic down Yesung’s spine but is quickly forgotten as a groan sounds from Min Yeon’s body. More fur has sprouted along her legs, the coloring a silvery blonde that Yesung has never seen before.

Yesung’s lost track of time since he’d infected Min Yeon, only knowing that the shift is taking a long time, longer than he remembers Donghae taking, though the younger shifter had admitted after that the moment he’d seen his wolf form, he’d become excited at being able to communicate with the gorgeous wolf and that was why his shift was so quick.

More fur suddenly sprouts along one side of Min Yeon’s torso. Yesung’s watching closely for any signs of a shift gone wrong as her body continues to transform into a wolf. By the time her lower half has shifted, Yesung realizes he’s starving and that communication with their female captor hasn’t happened for a while.

He’s not even sure that they are being watched right now, but taking the chance that someone is monitoring Min Yeon’s shifting, Yesung clears his throat. “Is there any chance of some food or something? If she successfully shifts she’ll be hungry and I’m starving from having to shift to change her.”

Yesung’s betting that the woman doesn’t know how hungry a shifter can be even after a tiny shifting like he’d done with his teeth. A crackle alerts Yesung that he’s been heard. So at least one person is watching them at all times. He files that information away for later.

“Food will be ready when she finishes shifting, wolf.” An unknown, gruff male voice sounds over the speakers. More than likely either a lackey who’s been instructed to only give certain responses to Yesung, or it’s the other kidnapper.

“That could be hours.” Yesung pleads, putting a soft petulant tone to his voice. “I may not be able to have enough strength if she goes crazy and tries to kill me. You don’t want a wolf who’s gone loup on your hands. They kill without any thought to who they are killing.” He explains.

There’s no answer. Yesung pouts, knowing with his chubby cheeks, and heart shaped face, he can pull off some aegyo that most celebrities in the entertainment industry would kill to be able to use. There’s no change in the shifting at the moment that Yesung can see, so he pouts more towards where he thinks the door is for a few moments.

The sound of metal scrapping against metal sounds through the room, covering the groan that emits from Min Yeon at the sound. A tray slides through, covered with a metal cap to keep whatever is in there warm. “You’re lucky the Boss says you need to keep your strength up.” The unfamiliar voice says through the speaker as the slot where the food came through slams shut.

Yesung takes a moment while he’s shuffling toward the tray to glance around at the room they are currently in. He’s been so focused on Min Yeon that he’s not had a chance until now to really get a good look at his surroundings. The rope had been changed at some point for an old pair of ankle shackles that eerily remind Yesung of the ones that death row prisoners wear so they can’t escape.

The room is bare, and looks like it’d been some sort of office room before being abandoned. The only furniture is the chair he’d been sitting on, and the couch that Min Yeon was placed on. The walls are bare, and even the floor looks abandoned by the layers of dust that are still evident in parts of the room where people haven’t touched it. There’s a window, but it has bars on the outside to prevent anyone or anything from breaking in. It meant they were most likely way outside of Seoul, probably some seedy rundown area of a prefecture Yesung would have never come to.

Even the view from the window is sad and depressing and doesn’t help Yesung place where he could possibly be held at, though from the slant of the sunshine outside he knows the time is around noon. He grabs the tray, smelling something rich and bloody underneath the metal cap. Knowing he needs to continue monitoring for signs of Min Yeon going loup, but hoping that the food will stimulate something inside Min Yeon’s subconscious, Yesung shuffles back to the chair, sits down and uncovers the food.

“She’s not fully changed yet has she?” The female’s voice crackles through the speakers, sounding disappointed.

Yesung must have drifted off at some point after his meal, jerking upright at the sound. “I told you. Shifting takes hours, and even if she fully shifts at this point, I don’t know what will happen.” He’s not Ji Young, the poor feline Alpha who’d been brutally murdered for some evil fairies’ spell, he can’t delve into a person’s mind while they are mid-shift and coax them into accepting their animal side.

“You must be able to do something wolf.” The disgust in her voice makes Yesung flinch. He’s never had to deal with prejudice in the supernatural world, so why would her disgust for his kind make him upset?

Yesung shrugs off the tone, choosing to ignore the woman as he maneuvers himself to a position where he can lay Min Yeon’s head in his hands. The shackles are chafing his ankles, but he’s in no position to ask for their removal. They prevent him from fully shifting, so he’s assuming a bit of sliver is embedded into the metal.

Min Yeon’s head, her hair soft, Yesung does the only thing he can think of in the moment, clearing his throat from the light nap he’d been taking. Taking a deep breath, Yesung opens his mouth and starts to hum the first few bars of a ballad he knows is Min Yeon’s favorite. She’d had it as her ringtone for her work phone as a way to calm herself whenever Siwon would call her.

Min Yeon hasn’t sprouted any new fur in the last hour or so, but only 2/3 of her body is covered in the light silvery blonde fur. Mismatched limbs greet Yesung’s sight as he shifts her body so she can lay more comfortably against his legs.

Halfway through the song, Min Yeon jerks in his arms. The spasm is so strong that Yesung can feel the bruise forming on his leg before he has time to register that Min Yeon’s body is attempting to finish the change and that she’s fighting it.

“No….shhhh little one.” Yesung’s not sure what to do in this moment, as Heechul had been the one to soothe Donghae through the final parts of shifting with whispered words and touches. “Please don’t fight it.” He lowers his voice, attempting to sound calm and relaxed.

A cry issues from her lips, sounding antagonized and pained. Yesung doesn’t want to admit she’s going loup. Cloud is in a panic because they’ve never seen a loup wolf before, having never been privy to watching any of the teenaged transformations when he’d been living with the Pack.

“The wolf is your friend.” Yesung whispers, his hands moving to hold down her shoulders. “You need to give her a name. Bond with her.”

He whispers the same things over and over until Min Yeon’s body stops fighting, the scent of sweat permeating the air, a mixture of his own scent and Min Yeon’s. Yesung cautiously opens his eyes, expecting to see a mad wolf staring at him, or worse, a half shifted wolf clawing at a body part in a futile attempt to release the non-shifting limb from its human skin.

Miraculously Min Yeon’s completed the change, her wolf form pristine and bright. “You did it!” Yesung smiles, gratefulness flooding his senses. Looking up, Yesung is surprised to see that it’s dark outside. The transformation has taken the entire day.

The worst part will be her shifting back to human form. Yesung’s not sure that the damage to her brain had been healed by the virus, and so that will be the ultimate test to see if she’s truly and fully shifted.

“Ok gorgeous.” Yesung can’t help but feel a bit of pride at the beauty of the wolf in front of him. “It’s time to shift back and open those pretty eyes of yours.” He says loud enough for their captors to hear him.
