Chapter 121
Everly POV
Macey rang me as soon as she got Zoe and I demanded Valen take me to the hospital to meet them. Macey also said to bring officer Derrick along with us, so we left the kids with Kalen and my father while we went off to meet them. My anxiety was through the roof as we waited. We were sitting in the room with Marcus who was slowly coming out of sedation. Valen was trying to calm him down, because as soon as his eyes opened he was trying to climb out of bed. My phone started ringing and I pulled it from my pocket and answered it to find it was Macey.
“I’m in a room a few doors down from Marcus. Hold off on letting Marcus see her for a second. And come here. He shouldn’t see her like this,” she tells me and I glance at Valen who was trying to hold Marcus in place. Officer Derrick whips out his handcuffs the moment Valen tells him and cuffs him to the bed.
“Macey has asked me to go see Zoe. Are you right with him for a second?” I mindlinked Valen and he nodded looking at officer Derrick who nodded. Officer Derrick follows me a few doors down, and I s**k in a breath before opening the door and stepping in. What I wasn’t expecting was the scene in front of me. Zoe was frantically fighting Macey, who was trying to restrain her and calm her down.
Nurses stood around her and a doctor with a syringe like he was about to try sedate her. I growl at him and he drops the needle stepping away from her, and Zoe’s eyes snap to me and so does Macey’s. Though the snarl that left her when officer Derrick walked in behind me was thunderous. And the next second, she had pulled his gun on him.
“Macey!” I hissed in shock, rushing to Zoe who clutched my arms. Yet she refused to lower the gun, but I was more focused on Zoe who refused to let go of me. Begging and pleading to be able to see Marcus and Casey.
“Shh. Breathe, Zoe. Deep breaths. Marcus is fine. You can see him in a minute,” I whisper as tears burn my eyes at seeing her so frantic. She reeked of wolves scents, when I picked up a familiar scent. One that had my head turning toward officer Derrick. “Out!” Macey snarls at him, pointing the gun at him. He held his up and did as she asked, stepping out of the room while she followed after him.
