Noah growled and Rafe jumped back as if he’d caught on fire. He thought the other wolf might piss his pants. Good. It wasn’t that Noah cared about them burying Shira. She’d been their alpha, maybe even for a long time. Giving her a proper burial ceremony was the right thing to do and would facilitate the transition that much easier with no bad blood. But they should have gotten permission first.

The fact that they’d slunk off to do it in the day behind his back was not a good thing. And he had no idea how he’d handle it. If he went on a killing rampage, they’d all fear him. If he acted like it was no big deal, he’d never hold the pack.

“S-sir?”

“WHAT?”

Rafe cringed again, and something in Noah just wanted to kill the weak fucker, but then, he’d been the only one who’d stayed behind. Why punish that?

“I tried to tell them to wait and ask, but they were afraid you’d say no. Shira meant a lot to the pack. She kept us together and out of trouble for a long time.”

“If they liked her so much, why did they all so quickly jump to follow me?”

“No one else in this group is much of a leader. And we need a strong leader to survive out here.”

If only they knew how long he’d been kept in that cell. They wouldn’t be turning to him to save them all. There was only so far brute strength could take him. And the half-faded, barely there memories of how his dad ran things weren’t going to help him now, anyway. His dad had run an established pack for decades. This wasn’t the same situation at all. He had no idea how to gain their trust and respect.

One or the other would have been easier, but to put the fear of God in them while also gaining their trust and loyalty wasn’t the most realistic task he’d ever been assigned.

Sydney squeezed his hand. And that was yet another issue. If he came off weak, someone might try to hurt her, even with his mark.

Wolves began running in through the revolving doors and shifting back to their human forms. Noah let go of Sydney’s hand and crossed his arms over his chest. He let out a low growl.

“Who is responsible for this?”

The pack members looked at the ground.

“Should I just start killing until one of you talks?”

Sydney let out a shocked gasp. Noah rounded on her and glared. He wished he could make her understand, but she had to stand with him now. Thankfully she closed her mouth and masked whatever emotions she was working through. He couldn’t reassure her. Every eye was on him, determining if he was fit to lead, determining if they could trust him. He wondered if this rebellion wasn’t a test, rather than an actual rebellion. After all, what were their other options right now?

If he and Sydney just left them, what would they do? There was no one else to lead.
