Matt noticed how the Alpha didn't seem much bothered by the prophecy and the consequences of taking another wrong person. Seeing that Sebastian showed no reaction at all, he decided to drop the topic. Being best friends, they had always been there for each other, and Matt's parents had become just like Sebastian's own after he had lost his. Matt's family had been there for Sebastian through everything, even after what Moonwillow had done.
Matt chose not to dwell on what those hypocrites had done to Sebastian when he was just ten years old, when he had already lost his parents and was drowning in grief and pain.
Thinking about it still made his chest tighten. Sebastian was a man surrounded and consumed by many layers of darkness and secrets that not even the elders fully knew about, and the prophecy, something tied directly to his fate, was one of those things he hated speaking about the most.
Instead of pushing the subject further, Matt decided to change it.
