My head jerked up as I stared at Alpha Renwick hoping he was joking but he didn’t seem to be. Jeremy and Nathan remained quiet, their faces blank without any expression while a few of the Alphas present were as surprised as I was.

“Is that supposed to be a joke, Renwick?” Alpha Calder snorted. “Who are you to go against the words of Alpha Logan? You were all here… you all bore witness to the day he announced Nathan Tanner – son of his Beta Jeremy Tanner as his heir. In our last meeting, three days before he met his death, he still reassured us of his heir and asked that we pressure the Lycan Leader…”

“No need to go into details, Calder,” Renwick interrupted, rolling his eyes with exasperation. “At least hear me out before you make conclusions.”

“It’ll do us good if you learn to say everything at once,” Alpha Grant chirped. “You’re fond of raising our hackles for no reason. Please explain to us now and clearly why Nathan Tanner cannot become Alpha.“”

Alpha Renwick sighed before he began. “It is true that we all bore witnesses to Alpha Logan naming Nathan Tanner as his heir but there is a complication. Someone is challenging Nathan’s claim to the Alpha sceptre. In fact, we received word from the Lycan Leader himself – Alpha Ramsey to conduct another election to determine the new Alpha and to judge fairly.”

“Is that why he sent his Beta to come to our meetings?” Alpha Rowan asked quietly, casting a disdainful gaze towards Lenny, where he was sitting.

Lenny rose to his feet, a blank look on his face too. “I know you’re all displeased with me being

here…”

“And rightly so. This is the council of Werewolves and not some Lycan meeting. Things are not done the way you Lycan’s do it. I’m afraid that will impact the result.”

Alpha Triston hissed. He seemed to be aware of the entire situation before today.
