Chapter 699
Taylor shook his head.
“I don’t think that’s the only thing Daisy wanted,” he said, his eyes shifting to the ground for a moment.
“What did you find out?” I asked, leaning forward in my seat, giving Taylor my full attention. It was clear that he knew something that he wasn’t saying.
“There was a larger dose of Moonshade in her system than we thought. Someone was deliberately trying to get rid of the baby…”
My wolf growled, breaking through my otherwise calm composure. Taylor stepped back, not sure what I was about to do. My eyes blazing with fury, Moonshade was a powerful sedation drug that could cause harm to the baby if a certain amount was given to her. It was also a drug that could make Judy compliant against her will and in a state of sedation so that whatever happened to her would be without a fight.
Thank God Taylor sent for Elizabeth when he did.
After I asked Dr. Johnathan to get Elizabeth Pierce to the hospital, he claimed that he did, but I had a bad feeling about it because I didn’t actually see him make the call. So, I called Taylor.
It turns out that the doctor did, in fact, lie and never called her; my suspicions were correct.
That’s how I knew for certain something fucked was happening at the hospital. Taylor sent for Elizabeth himself, and she was there within half an hour.
The second Elizabeth saw her state of mind, she knew something was wrong and kicked all the doctors working on her out.
“We need to find out who the fuck gave her the Moonshade in the first place,” I hissed. My voice was more animalistic than intended. I was there when Elizabeth got the test results back from Judy’s blood work, and she found traces of Moonshade in her system. After that, the hospital was on lockdown, and most of the doctors and nurses were rounded up for questioning. Now that I know it wasn’t just used for sedation, and it was intended to harm my pup and mate… I was fucking livid.
“We are figuring that out now. Derek and some of the other gammas are questioning them as we speak. I’ll det you know once we have answers
he told me. “But for now, try to calm down. Your mate is fine… she’s recovering well.”
“I need to see her,” I said, shaking my head. “It’s been too long, and I need to see her for myself.” My wolf wasn’t going to be okay until he knew for certain that she was okay.
“What about Daisy? We can’t let her just go free. She clearly wanted the baby and Judy gone, and she used Levi to make that happen,” Taylor reminded me, halting me before I reached the door.
A low growl escaped my throat.
He was right. How could I have forgotten? I couldn’t let that go unpunished.
“We hold a trial for her,” I said without turning back to Taylor. “I want her to admit to everything she had done wrong before banishing her. The only reason why I am allowing her to keep her life is because she was Melissa’s sister… otherwise, I’d order her death. I want her to see Judy thriving as a Luna while she suffers with nothing. I want to strip her of her heiress title and make sure she leaves this pack with nothing. With Levi losing his ranking and his territory, she’ll have nowhere to go. The other Lycans won’t take in a rogue like her.”
For someone like Daisy, that was worse than death.
“I’ll get a trial set up,” Taylor said, typing away on his phone.
I left without another word.
Judy had been in the hospital for a little over 12 hours, and it was driving both me and my wolf crazy. At least I knew that she was okay, and as was the baby… they were both in good hands now that Elizabeth was there.
