“What should I know about my Alphas?”

I demanded of Greyson at once, my heart pounding. My fingers curled into fists instinctively, but I

forced myself to loosen them.

“Oh, hey, friend. No need for alarm. I can see how protective you are of them, and that’s wonderful.

Exactly the kind of loyalty we need here at Brightsky. I was only going to tell you that your Alphas are

being asked to join our lead council. That’s all, nothing bad.”

Greyson looked entirely distraught. ‘I’m sorry if I gave off the impression that there was something

wrong. I should’ve thought more carefully about my words, considering everything you all have been

through before you got here. But that’s what they’re doing today. The leadership council is going to

officially request they join.”

“Does that mean we’ll be welcome to stay at Brightsky…forever?” I took a long drink of my beer to

cover up my overreaction. Greyson clearly felt bad, but I just felt dumb.

“As long as you’d like, at least. I wanted to let you know because I know you were a bit put out that they

give you a bit more input and involvement in how things are run. You’d be at your Alpha’s side, not

excluded like that.

It’s not quite like that here. Here at Brightsky,though, you could also have the opportunity to move into

a full leadership role yourself.”

I thought about this as I dug into some ribs.

After I’d chewed and swallowed, I said, “You mean be an Alpha? That’s impossible. Alphas are born.

You don’t just decide to become one.”

“We don’t have Alphas here, no matter how they’re born. Which means you definitely don’t have to

get the feeling that you’d willingly give up that role, no matter what other position was offered to you.”

“Your feeling is right. I can’t even imagine it,to be honest. It’s what I was born t

here, and my Alphas are no longer Alphas…”

Talready told you that I didn’t think your place with them would change Unless you want it to,of course.

And here, well, Zane If you want it to, it can You could be or do anything else you wanted to be?

Did I want such a thing? t shook my head it feels disloyal even to talk about this.”

My words tasted a little bit like a lie, even though I thought I was telling the truth. “You’re not in at

leadership role, are you?”

“Me? Go ds, no. I don’t have any interest in that. Being a leader requires a lot of teamwork, and, like I

said,

I dragons are generally solitary folk. My loyalty and attention is to my mate. I don’t really want to be in

charge of anyone or anything else.”

Disloyal or no, Greyson’s words had stirred something up inside of me. Something I didn’t really want

to admit to. Didn’t want to feel. I finished my beer. ‘But you think I might?”

“You know, sometimes just because we feel like we were born to be something, that doesn’t mean we

have to stay in that place for our entire lives. But I understand why you wouldn’t want things to change.

I understand how it feels to gain great personal satisfaction from giving someone else comfort, or

I nodded. “That is what it’s like. As Xander’s Beta, and now Mason’s, I’m prepared to go to war with

“And what about when you’re not in a war?”

“Yes,” I said. “If that’s the way you want to put it.

“I think that you could be a great leader, if given the chance,” Greyson said. “All I’m saying is….. think

Now I couldn’t stop thinking about anything else.
