Three years later
Jonah POV
It's been three years since my brother Jonas died, three years since I was named the new Alpha.
At first I begged my dad to take the role back, I knew I didn't deserve it, but the elders insisted. They said I showed all the potential of being a true Alpha, they said they sensed the Alpha power passed to me the moment Jonas died.
I knew the power passed, I just never felt like I deserved it. I felt like I was simply holding it temporarily for someone.
My suspicions were confirmed when I got the call from Merrick, his sister was pregnant with Jason's child.
I was overjoyed with the news, it meant I didn't need to be Alpha, she could be Alpha until her son was old enough to take over. However, I was disappointed when Merrick told me that his sister refused to accept the title on her son's behalf.
