The One He Claimed by Cooper

Chapter 156: Telling Zahn

Sophie

There’s a knock at the door and I look up to see Brutus. He steps aside and Zahn rushes in, crouching in front of her.

“Jocelyn. Are you alright? What did the doctor say?”

“Alpha Zahn, why don’t you have a seat,” I say, knowing that Jocelyn is already tired, and he blew into the room like a tornado.

He stands and turns to me. “Do you mind giving us some privacy?”

“I’ve been asked to stay, so I’ll be staying. Why don’t you have a seat, Alpha?” I suggest again.

He growls, a low, irritated growl, before complying. I feel Hunter’ s presence strengthen in my mind. If Zahn isn’t careful, my mate will come flying through that door. I’m hoping it doesn’t come to that. Jocelyn needs peace, not arguing and fighting.

Zahn collects himself and sits, reaching out to take Jocelyn’s hand. She quickly pulls it away.

“I just wanted to let you know what’s going to be happening, Zahn. Dr. Caspian is going to do surgery on me tomorrow. Depending on if or when Cassidy returns, my recovery time will be very slow. He can’t do everything at once, so, he’ll be focusing on one part of my body at a time. Starting tomorrow, he’s going to rebreak and reset the bones from my right hip to my right toes. Without Cassidy, it will take me two months to heal before I can have the next surgery.”

“Two months! No way, Jocelyn. You’re not ing to be here, recovering, for two months! I can’t be away from the pack that long,” he says.

“I understand. I will stay…..”

“NO!” he jumps to his feet, his fists clenched. “I will not allow you to stay here while I return home.”

Zahn, please have a seat,” I say, keeping my voice

well, since those pups need as much happiness in their lives as possible, we’ve planted little flowering bushes and some stone benches for people to have some quiet space. It’s why Kinsley is talking to the group about starting a garden. I think it will be a nice place to plant not only vegetables but also some flowers and it will give them something that they can do to help but may also be
