The alpha spoke. “No. This wasn‟t a sudden decision. He isn‟t the only one we‟ve been grooming for this day. You have a heart for the pack. You proved it when you gave up your dreams of being an ob-gyn and pursued nursing instead because it‟s what the pack needed.”

It was true she‟d wanted to be an obstetrician, but she was still in the medical field. She didn‟t feel that she‟d made a sacrifice, simply traded one degree for another. She would have the best of both worlds. She could give the pack what they needed and still satisfy her desire to deliver healthy babies into the world by training to be a licensed midwife. Since the alphas were working on a deal with the local state university to have the clinic set up as an adjunct training facility, she wouldn‟t have to be away from the pack as long to complete her studies.

“And despite your many disagreements, you and Alex work well together. He won‟t have to worry about you overstepping your boundaries or trying to take the pack away from him,” Mona added.

It was true she and Alex fought a lot, but it was more in the nature of siblings than anything else, not that she‟d admit that to him. He was already too cocky for his own good. It was her duty to knock him down a peg or two whenever the opportunity presented itself, something she relished.

“And you said the elders have already agreed?”

“Yes. Why wouldn‟t they?” Mona asked. “It‟s not like this is a surprise to them.

They‟ve known our intentions since you were young.”

“But I‟m not blood,” Carol argued. Yes, it was traditional that whenever possible, the alphas‟ eldest offspring led the pack after the demise or retirement of the current alphas. Also, in large packs like theirs, it wasn‟t unheard of for the responsibility to be split among siblings, as long as a clear leader was established.

“You‟re the daughter of our heart and in the eyes of the pack, therefore every bit as much our child as Alex, so I‟ll hear no more on that subject, young lady,” the alpha said sternly.

“Yes, sir,” she said, suitably cowed.
