Alpha Female

Epilouge

Pearls POV

7 and a half years later 

My girls had grown so much from the tiny pups that I had given birth too. I thought to myself as I watched them interact with our pack. All of us were getting ready to hand over the pack to our daughters as the main line of defence and structure so we could all retire our positions. It was there turn now. My daughters were deciding who would be the proper alpha between them whilst the other three could stay or they could decide to go. Zoe and Chloe, Clara's daughters were having a similar conversation. I and demon were unconventional mates in the fact we didn't join our packs like most alpha mates would've have done. We shared a home in our common territory and we held gathering every so often but the way we were worked for us. 

I was pulled out of my inner thoughts when my daughters approached with varying emotions flickering in their eyes. I even caught specks of their wolves eyes meaning they were very close to the surface, I realised they were nervous to tell me which one gets the alpha position. "I don't mind which one of you gets the position and I don't mind what the rest of you will do if you decide not to stay in the pack" I soothed watching as relief filled their eyes and their postures relaxed slightly. "Mom, we have decided that Emerald will stay to be the alpha of the pack because she has trained harder for the position and our wolves are pushing us to seek out mates and leave this territory" Ruby explained wringing her hands in an obvious sign of discomfort. "That's alright, as long as you are all happy with that decision that's all that matters" I reassured my daughters thinking back to the time when they had only just been born. Boy how time sure does fly. "Alpha, My sister Zoe will be taking over the beta position and I will be filling the gamma one until the current gammas daughter comes of age" Chloe stated as she walked up behind my daughters along with Zoe. "You hear that Clara" I called as I spotted her over the field we are on.

Clara rushed over to us and nodded her head in understanding her eyes glinting with pride. "so then should we get this show on the road" Clara spoke as she stood beside me. I smiled at her exuberance and walked towards the stage in the middle of the clearing. I was followed by Emerald, Zoe, Chloe, Clara and my gamma Kristen. I got to the podium that had been set up on the stage and stood behind it so I could address my pack mates as their alpha for the last time. "We have gathered today to witness the power shift of the pack to its next generation. My daughter Emerald will be taking over the alpha position, Zoe will be taking over Clara's beta position and Chloe will take over the gamma position from Kristen. Before the power exchange, I would like to say a few words" I began looking over my pack with unrestrained emotion. The first 20 or so members and their daughters and then the she-wolves who have been coming and going for years. "I am honoured that I was able to serve as you alpha for so many years, I have watched our pack grow from the ground up and become the second most powerful in the world, you have all done yourselves proud and I hope that our pack is a beacon of hope for all she-wolves in need for as long as we continue to exist" I continued before bowing towards the pack. I got shocked gasps of surprise as an alpha would normally never bow to anyone but another alpha. 

A cheer went through the crowd as everyone raised their voices in a thunderous howl that could no doubt be heard across our territory. "Without further ado, we will now commence the power exchange" Clara exclaimed as I rose back up to my full height. Kristen and Chloe stepped forward first for the gamma exchange ceremony. "Do you Chloe accept the responsibility of becoming this packs gamma, do you accept the responsibility of training the pack and defending it as the gamma and lead warrior?" Asked Kristen before extending her claws and creating a small wound on the palm of her hand. "I do, I  promise to do my very best to leave up to your legacy" Chloe affirmed before creating a small wound on her palm. When the two shook hands the power transferred letting the pack know they now had a new gamma. Next Clara and Zoe completed the beta power shift and then I did the alpha power shift with Emerald. The pack now had it's three highest members and now it was time to celebrate the pups ascendance into their titles and the celebration of the retirement of the old higher-ups. After the ceremony Demon came up to me with our sons Slate and Jasper placing a kiss on my forehead. "You know you still hold an alpha title in my pack until our sons come of age" He stated as he caught my eyes no doubt seeing my need for a purpose. "Alright, your pack will be seeing a lot more of me now that I no longer have any duties to my own pack which has now been succeeded" I confirmed before taking Slates hand and joining the celebrations. 

Alpha Rex's POV

I cut my palm and joined hands with the cut hand of my son Quarts passing my alpha title onto him. Micheal doing the same with his son Jake making him the beta. The handover ceremony went smoothly and I cracked a genuine smile as I remembered the bittersweet memories of the past. I was happy with the way it had worked out but sometimes I'd catch myself thinking back to the what-ifs before shaking my head and looking towards the future for a quiet life with my mate Brittney and our son Callum with one more on the way. I smiled fondly at Brittney before walking off the stage. When I got to Brittney I placed a kiss on her cheek and laid a hand on her stomach and a hand on Callum's shoulder. Finally, I had my happily ever after and I couldn't wait to see how Quarts would handle his new role as the Alpha.
