Chapter Forty-Nine

Daphne’s Point of View

My mating ceremony was a few days ago, and although it was not the wonderful event we had originally planned, in the end I was still bound to Caleb. I was also announced as the Luna of our pack. Life did not slow down from there. 1

The only living heirs to my father’s pack were my sister and I. My sister also happens to be the only living heir to her pack in California. On top of all of this, Scarlet has also discovered that she and Theo are second chance mates. There has been so much going on lately that Caleb and I have not been able to celebrate our

mating ceremony. 2

Right now, we are in talks with Beta Noah regarding the Silver Moon pack and the line of succession. Scarlet has already

stated that she has no desire to be the acting Luna of the pack. The next in line for the job is me. I have no desire to try to lead people that could not even treat me like I was human; however, I do not want there to be any mistreatment of the people there. There have been

suggestions back and forth about Noah taking over, or one of our warriors stepping forward as the new Alpha. There is also the issue of Theo being Scarlet’s mate. By all rights even if Scarlet does not desire the position, Theo could step forward as the new Alpha. Noah is not aware of that situation though.

“Noah if you do not mind, there is a lot of information for my family to discuss. If you could step outside, I will have Hannah take you downstairs and get you fed some lunch while we discuss the

options.” Caleb’s voice is firm but

friendly. I marvel at how well he does

politically. Noah nods at him and leaves

the room. 2

Caleb turns to face Scarlet, Theo, and I. I can see the worry lines creasing his forehead already. “Scarlet, I know that you believe that you have been away too long, to be an effective leader to the Silver Moon pack. Theo you as her mate have a choice, one that I will back either way. You have always been an excellent Beta, and I believe with all my heart that you will make an amazing Alpha. I know that the two of you have a lot of heavy

decisions on your shoulders right now so Daphne and I will leave you alone to discuss the options.” With Caleb’s words I stand. I am ready to get out of this room. for a minute. We leave them alone to talk,

and retreat into our bedroom.

“Caleb, if Theo does decide to become the next Alpha who would be your Beta?” Out

of everything I heard in the den, this was

the one question that I was worried about

the most. I am aware that I have trust

issues, and I want to make sure that the next Beta is someone that both Caleb and

I can trust.
