Reclaiming My Broken Luna by Selene Souchon

Chapter 54: Moving On

Killian's POV

My mother's lips bobbed up and down like a fish, unable to answer my simple question.

My frown deepened at her strange reaction, but she immediately steeled herself by faking a cough.

"Huh?" My mother shot back at me once she had recovered. "I-I- of course! Your father wouldn't have been the Alpha if he hadn't met me sooner," my mother answered haughtily.

"Everyone knows how your grandfather was convinced by Drystan's performance and started to consider him the Alpha. If your father hadn't met me sooner, your grandfather would have passed the position on Drystan instead," my mother shook her head in disdain as she was reminded of the past.

I slowly nodded my head when I finally understood what my mother meant. I was just thinking too much. My doubts finally vanished when I heard her answer.

In werewolf Packs, it is our tradition to pass down a position or a title to the next generation only when the heir has found their mate.

It has always been like that in all Packs. The next Alpha should ascend to their position along with their Luna. In that way, the Alpha wouldn't have a hard time handling the Pack affairs on his own because he would immediately have the support of his Luna from the start. This is the reason why ascensions happen most of the time after weddings. In the morning, the wedding will take place, and once the full moon has come out, they will use the same venue with all the preparations and proceed with the ascension.

In that way, they could save everyone's time and money.

Still, there are future Alphas who get wed first, and they wait for months before they can ascend to their titles. It really depends on the circumstances at Packs.

Although all Packs follow this kind of tradition, there are still exceptions. Sometimes, future Alphas need to take their positions early without a mate on their side because of unforeseen circumstances, such as the death of their parents. There were some rare cases where sons would kill their fathers just so they could ascend to their position earlier than they should.
