Dax found the young heir in the house, specifically, in the kitchen. Thanks to Dorien blocking his mind and presence, Dax could not sense the young wolf’s state.
However, he knew his son’s temperament.
Once he saw his brother, things would happen.
He knew his sons were close.
Where Dorien was peevish, Reyland was mature. He knew his firstborn could handle his younger brother, but Reyland was not the problem.
Dorien was the issue. He was explosive.
Dax’s mind wandered as he considered his next move. His pack was being tested, but his family was under immediate threat.
His older sons were at risk, and neither one was young enough for him to control with words.
He needed to be careful.
==========
Dax had never really bonded with his children. He was not an involved parent.
