Chapter 12 Mate

• Sebastian POV
• I knew it was a reckless decision, and I told Joseph, my only son that, not that he listened. Chasing a cure for his mate was noble, but he didn’t think about the cost. His actions didn’t just endanger himself—they jeopardized the safety of our entire flight, our royal family, and everything we’ve worked to protect.
• He left with too few guards, ignoring the very advice I would have given him if I’d known. Had he confided in me, I would have accompanied him, ensuring his safety and tempering his impulsiveness. But he didn’t. And now, I’ve had to leave the safety of our stronghold to find him, venturing into the hostile werewolf kingdom and worse—a rogue pack’s territory.
