"Gamma Kira is a formidable warrior, that's not a disputable fact," she acknowledged. "However, the Beta position is not all about strength. Kira has no interest in politics - it bores her, and we can't afford to have a Beta who doesn't take an active interest in the pack's governance."
Reana's words were met with nods of understanding from the warriors, who recognized the importance of political savvy in a Beta.
Kira, on the other hand, was never interested in being a Beta. She'd had that conversation with Reana in the past and even now, her opinion hadn't changed.
"As for the vacant Delta position," Reana announced, her voice firm and decisive, as her gaze swept through the expectant faces, resting on Tara. "Tara will step into the role."
