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 hîm 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 suck 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.

“Valen, get to Derrick before Macey shoots him.She is in the hall,” I mind link turning my attention back to Zoe.

“I just want my baby!I want my Casey!” Zoe sobbed, her nails digging into my arms and my eyes ran over her.

She was a mess.

Covered in blood and I swallowed, the pain in her voice, the desperation.I don’t even think she registered Macey had left, her mind only had one focus and that was to get to her

 “Okay.But you don’t want to scate Casey, do you?” I ask her and she appears to be confused.

I grip her hands, prying them off my arms where she drew blood with her nails.

“You don’t want to scare Casey, Zoe,” I tell her, holding her hands up in front of her face.

She blinked at me before noticing the blood on her hands.

“I promise I will take you to them.But you need to let the nurses check you over and…” I swallowed, looking at them.

“They need to take some swabs, so we can get those that hurt you.So they don’t hurt anyone else,” I tell her and she blinks, staring at her hands that tremble violently.

“I don’t want to scare Casey,” she murmurs.

“That’s right, we don’t want to scare Casey.I am right here, okay.But I need you to lay down so we can make sure you’re okay,” I felt stupid saying that.I knew she wasn’t okay.

“I’m right here,” I tell her, nudging her toward the bed before turning to the Doctor.

“Get a female doctor.You’re not touching her,” I tell him and he rushes out.

Casey mutters to herself as she lays down and I could see she was in shock.

And she appeared to remain in that state while Doctors and nurses cleaned her up, and ran their tests when she lurched upright.

“Ava!” she gasped with wide eyes.

“They still have Avaa!You have to help her!” tears pricked my eyes at her words, some escaping and slipping down my face.

“I know.But for now, my focus is on you,” I tell her.
