….
I don’t think this has ever happened before, two alphas of one pack.
Mum and Dad are known as the two alphas, but when it comes to the Dark Phantom pack…Mum has always been the Luna, not a joint alpha.
But Josie made it very clear that she would only agree to take on the Clear Waters pack if Knox was by her side. Not just by her side, but joint alpha with her.
Split equally between them.
I missed their marking ceremony, missed the moment my sister declared to the world that she had chosen her mate for the rest of her life.
But I was here now, here to watch her take on the Clear Waters, watch as her mate strengthens her by carrying the load with her.
There was no need for external guests, for alphas and lunas to attend from other packs…not even Uncle Jude. Not even Maya.
It was arranged at such short notice that they
wouldn’t get here in time.
Besides, it was fitting it was an internal affair, it made it feel more special this way.
Dad was overseeing the ceremony, he had been Mum’s strength over the past few days, but I could see the stress had aged him more, small wrinkles lining his eyes that hadn’t been visible a week ago.
“Are you ready?” He tenderly whispers to Mum, who had already been incredibly brave today…she was always strong, always brave.
“I’m ready.” She nods out, her hand reaching out to take that of her daughter’s.
“I, Kaia Varon, Alpha of the Clear Waters do relinquish my claim over the pack, naming
my daughter Josephina Varon and her mate, Kit Knoxbridge as the next joint alphas of the pack.” A smile forms upon her lips as she looks to Josie and Knox, giving them her blessing.
“We, accept the title of alphas of the Clear Waters pack, and in doing so, promise to protect the pack lands and our people.”
Josie eyes take on a spectacular orange colour, her eyes glowing that little more vibrant as she becomes the next moon blessed alpha of the Clear Waters. Even Knox’s, his eyes take on a light brown, more of a caramel colour before fading back to his natural dark brown eyes.
