Chapter 298

Dr. Caspian talks to Jocelyn, asking her about how she’s feeling, about her pain level, and checking her vitals from this morning and overnight. “I’d like to take another x-ray of your leg this morning. I took them at each point yesterday, but I’d like to make sure that everything is still in place so it can heal properly.”

Jocelyn nods in agreement.

“Alright, I’m going to take our patient for a bit and get those x- rays, then I’ll bring her back in here.”

“Will you come with me, Sophie?” Jocelyn asks.

“I’d like to come,” Zahn says, still holding her hand.

“Just Sophie please,” Jocelyn says.

I wait, watching Zahn struggle with Jocelyn’s decision, but he finally releases her hand and steps back.

I follow Dr. Caspian to the x-ray room and reach out to hold Jocelyn’s hand.

“He’s very overwhelming. I didn’t realize how overwhelming until you made him back off,” she says.

“If you want him out of the room, all you have to do is say so,” I

tell her.

She nods. “I don’t think that he’ll let me kick him out completely, but some time without him there would be nice.”

“It’s your decision, not his. I’ll ask him to leave when we get back,” I tell her.

“Thank you, Sophie,” she says just as Dr. Caspian has me step out of the room.

He takes the x-rays and while they process, I go back into the room, quietly sitting beside Jocelyn while she rests.

When Dr. Caspian comes back in, he puts the x-ray screens up on an x-ray box and turns on the light.

He looks them over before smiling and turning to look at Jocelyn. “We have some good news.”

He points to the first x-ray. I recognize it immediately as her original x-ray from two days ago. “This was your first x-ray. Let’s focus on your right leg. You can see the multiple breaks from hip to toes,” he says, using his finger to point to the shattered mess that was her leg.

He then points to the next x-ray on the screen and Jocelyn gasps as we see the difference immediately. The shattered mess of her leg is now straight, like it’s supposed to look. “This is your leg now.”

“Wow,” she says. “That’s amazing,” she whispers.

“What’s even more amazing is this right here,” he says, moving to a third x-ray. “This is your hip. It’s where I started your surgery yesterday. Notice that there are no fracture lines in your bones.”

“What does that mean?” I ask him.

He turns to look at us, smiling. “It means, Jocelyn, that while your wolf may be silent, I believe that she’s alive and well, and already starting to heal you.”

I had a feeling that Jocelyn wasn’t going to want Zahn in her recovery room when she returned, and I was right. I also had a feeling he wasn’t going to leave just because he was asked to, so I made sure that the warriors were nearby to escort him if he gave me any problems. I know it hasn’t been long, but Jocelyn seems to already be responding to the calm that Sophie brings to this pack, and I don’t want Zahn’s negative energy interfering with her recovery.

She’s not even through the door when Zahn jumps up and begins asking her what Dr. Caspian told her.

The smile I saw on her face as she was coming in the door drops away.

“Zahn!” I say, but he remains focused on Jocelyn. “Alpha Zahn,” I growl, getting his attention.

He looks up at me, and I can see that he’s getting tired already

of being told how to interact with his mate. “Back off. She’s not even in the door yet and you’re already overwhelming her. Back. Off!” I growl when he glares at me.

My warriors come in right behind Jocelyn and Sophie, moving to put themselves between my mate and Zahn.

“I don’t think it’s too much to ask what they found,” he snaps, putting up his hands and stepping back as my warriors crowd him.

“The surgery was successful, but I need to heal. I’d like for you to leave now, Zahn,” Jocelyn says.

“Jocelyn!” he says, looking at her as if he can’t believe she’s kicking him out.

“Your presence, whether you mean for it to be or not, is very overwhelming, Alpha Zahn. That is not a conducive environment for someone to recover in,” Sophie tells him kindly. She’s being a lot nicer than I am, or than my warriors will be.

“You heard her Zahn, and you know the rules,” I say, stepping up to my warriors and putting myself between Zahn, Sophie, and Jocelyn.

“This is fucking ridiculous!” he yells. “She’s my mate!”
