Sebastian's POV:
When I sat by Alice's bedside, a sudden sharp pain shot through my chest. It felt like something was leaving me. Deep in my consciousness, the black wolf rammed into the mental barrier without warning.
It growled restlessly, telling me to go home immediately. I thought it was just from transforming too hastily, aggravating my old silver wound on the side of my stomach.
Alice had already taken the sedative, but her face was still pale. She asked cautiously, "Is something wrong?"
I pressed a hand to my chest and replied, "It's nothing. The patrol team will handle the rest. You don't need to be afraid anymore."
Alice's tears kept falling. She said that if I hadn't arrived in time, she might have died. Recalling her scream through the mental link, I softened my voice. "
