‘Then we should do what the other Alphas suggested. We may not like their

ways, we may not agree with them, but they have what we want. I think we need to see how it is that they achieved that,‘ Kortan says.

I lay down on the bed, staring at the ceiling Kortan is right. I don’t agree with their ways, but I can’t disagree that they have what I want. They have Lunas who obviously love them, and they have their pups

in their mates‘ bellies. All of these Alphas will have heirs long before I

do, possibly before my mate even allows me to touch her.

Jocelyn POV

“Well, Jocelyn. I have good news and bad news,” Dr. Caspian says.

“Good news first.”

“Your blood work looks good. You’re healthy, although I’m going to recommend some vitamins for some deficiencies you have. You don’t have any lingering infections, although it seems that you had some at one point, is that correct?”

“I think so. I was unconscious for a long time.”

“That makes sense. Now for the bad news,” he says and puts up several x–ray images. “Whoever set your bones either didn’t know what they were doing, or they were overwhelmed with the large number of bones that were broken. Without your wolf, it would have been up to the doctor to set the bones properly and in a lot of instances, that didn’t

“Is that why can’t walk, and I still have pain all the time?”

“Yes. I don’t think there’s any way to remove the scarring. When your wolf returns, because I think she will, she can heal the worst of it, but you’ll always have scars from your…incident.“.

“Let’s call it what it is, doctor. I tried to kill myself. It was a suicide attempt.”

“Right,” he says. “So, what I can do, if you agree, is to sedate you and begin to slowly rebreak and reset your bones. I say slowly because without your wolf, the healing process will be long and slow. You’ll have to heal at a human pace and for the bones to set, it will take a couple of months. I would do it in phases, left leg, right leg, left arm, right arm, and in that way, I can immobilize one part of your body, and you can heal before we move to the next.”

“Months?” I ask, having attached to the biggest concern of everything

he said.

“Until your wolf returns, yes. Now, my understanding is that you have the option to remain here as long as you’d like. If you decide to stay, I‘ d guess that your wolf will return more quickly.”

“Why do you say that?” I ask him.

He shrugs. “This pack is special.”

“That’s what your mate said.” I watch as a huge smile spreads across

his face.

I look back at the x–rays. You don’t have to be a doctor to see what a mess my body is.

“When could we start?” I ask. If there’s an option to get my body back to something closer to normal, I want to do it..

“If you agree, we could start tomorrow. You can choose which leg, but based on your injuries, it looks like you landed on your right side. There’s more damage there,” he says, drawing a line with his finger from the hip bone to the toes. “I would suggest starting there.”

“What about my ribs,” I ask. Breathing is still painful, and any twisting is limited.

“We could start there, if you choose to, but that recovery will be more difficult. My suggestion would be to wait and see if your wolf returns. A three–day recovery is a lot easier than a two–month recovery if I have to rebreak your ribcage.”

“Okay, let’s do it,” I say.

“I’ll get everything prepared. I’ll let Luna Sophie know that you’ll be here for a couple of days,” he stops, focusing on me. “I understand you may not want to see your mate. If that’s the case, you may want to speak with Luna Sophie about having guards placed on you. In my experience, Alphas don’t appreciate being told what they can’t do and if you’re his mate and you’re in pain, he’ll feel that, and his natural instinct will be to come here to protect you.”

I scoff at that. “Protect me. Yeah, that’s what he’ll do.”

“No matter the relationship between the two of you, you wear his mark. He’ll feel some level of protectiveness over you.”

I doubt that, but I don’t say anything. I have to admit that this doctor seems to know what he’s talking about. I hope he’s right and can heal
