The Alpha’s Fated Outcast: Rise Of The Moonsinger
Chapter 81

81 True heir vs appointed heir … 

Lyla ( 1 

Alpha Renwick scoffed , leaning back on his chair and stroking his beard .

“ So , you would deny your late husband’s wishes ? I replace it curious , Luna Vanessa , that you chose this moment to voice your objection when you had all the time in the world to fight against this when Alpha Logan was alive .

” 

My mother didn’t flinch .

“ That was before everything changed , ” she said .

“ And curious or not , it’s my right .

I don’t think any of you in this room has more blue blood than me here .

I come from a lineage of pure Alphas .

My ancestors all married men and women with Alpha blood .

” 

She turned to Nathan , pressing her lips into a thin line .

“ My husband may have chosen you , but this pack requires an Alpha who understands its deepest traditions , and who possesses true 

strength .

” 

Then she turned to the Alphas , her cold gaze sweeping all over the room gain .

* 

“ Nathan Tanner comes from a Beta Lineage .

In all our history , has a Beta ever ruled as Alpha of a 

pack , especially one as big and major as Blue Ridge ? ” 

“ That is like taking us back to the old ways , Luna Vanessa , ” Alpha Renwick sighed .

“ We’ve embraced a lot of new things .

We embraced a lot of inventions of the human world , we even go there as we want and mingle with them .

The universe is evolving and so are we .

Being a Beta and an Alpha doesn’t mean anything .

” 

“ Then who’d you rather an Omega becomes , Alpha ? ” My mother sneered glaring at him .

“ Nathan may be capable , but the lineage of an Alpha is not something that can be borrowed or substituted .

My Husband and mate , Alpha Logan built Blue Ridge with his strength and dedication .

I won’t watch his legacy crumble under the hands of a Beta .

” 

“ But he has spent years , preparing to lead this pack ,” Alpha Calder said .

“ Just like you , in the beginning , we were all against Alpha Logan naming him as heir but then he proved himself to be a worthy Alpha and I’m sure he would honour Alpha Logan’s memory by upholding his vision for Blue Ridge .

” 

“ I don’t care how clear his intentions are , Calder ,” she said coldly .

“ But intentions alone won’t hold this pack together .

Anyone who sits as Alpha to Blue Ridge pack automatically manages this council .

This council deserves stability , not another inexperienced leader swept in my 

circumstance .

” 

“ And I’ll still maintain that he’s undergone extensive Alpha training , more so than most heirs .

Besides , Blue Ridge needs a leader and not these endless debates on bloodlines , ” Alpha Rowan 

said .

“ Well , Bloodlines are everything , Alpha Rowan , ” My mom shot back .

“ If you all could look past sentiment , you’d see that placing this pack’s leadership in the hands of a Beta’s descendant is a disgrace to our Legacy .

” 

“ Finel ” Alpha Rowan’s voice cut through the tension “ And who do vou pronose Luna ? ” His maze

was on her now mixed with a hint of impatience .

“ If you dispute Nathan’s claim to the seat of the Alpha , who would you want to take the sceptre ? ” 

The room fell silent as everyone turned to my mother but she didn’t say .

She seemed to be running through different scenarios in her head .

Again , it was Alpha Myra who broke the silence , a sneer on her lips .

“ Are you afraid to tell us who you think is more capable than Nathan Tanner ? Perhaps , you are suggesting that we appoint your daughter , Lyla as the Alpha ? ” 

My mother turned her gaze on Myra as she burst out laughing , a mocking smile playing on her lips.

“ Lyla ? Surely , Myra , you’re joking .

” She threw a disdainful glance at me , her eyes flicking the length of my body with scorn .

“ Everyone in this room knows that Lyla is not fit for any position of authority .

She is a wolfless deviant who can’t even shift properly – she’s an embarrassment to her father’s legacy .

” 

It would have been better to be slapped at that moment because my mother’s words felt like it .

I swallowed hard , lowering my head as heat burned behind my eyes , wishing I could disappear into the stone floor beneath my feet .

I clenched my hands into fists at my sides , hiding the tears that pricked at the corner of my eyes .

“ How dare you … ” Nathan’s voice rang in the hall but before he could finish , his father’s hand clamped down on his shoulder , silencing him .

My mother turned to him , an amused expression on her face .

“ Stay out of this , Nathan .

This is a matter for the council and I can call Lyla whatever name that pleases me .

I raised her … so you ‘ have no right to interfere .

” 

“ I think we’re overstretching this matter , ” Alpha Tristan sighed .

“ It’ll be night soon and I have no intentions of spending the night here .

Luna Vanessa , ” he turned to my mother .

“ The Alpha Heir has proved himself more than capable .

We could let him take over the helm of affairs on probation and then review his leadership after three months .

How about that ? ” 

My mom’s lips curved into a cold smile .

“ Perhaps Nathan has proven himself to you .

But I will not bow to a Beta’s son .

I will never accept him as my Alpha .

” 

“ Then who do you think should become Alpha , Luna Vanessa ? ” Alpa Calder asked .

“ Do you plan on claiming the Alpha position for yourself ? This is what it’s all about right ? ” 

My mom raised her chin , a stubborn expression on her face .

“ It is true that a woman cannot rule as an Alpha and I know you won’t also consider my daughter Clarissa as Alpha , then I should at least be appointed Alpha Regent , just like Alpha Myra .

” 

Alpha Myra laughed , her eyes gleaming with amusement as she stared at my mom .

“ The only reason I serve as an Alpha Regent is because I have a son who will soon come of age and take his rightful place as Alpha of Silver Moon Pack and the last time I checked , Alpha Logan had no sons ,” her eyes narrowed .

“ Unless , you’re trying to make a fool of all of us ? ” 

The vicious smile on my mother’s face deepened as she took a few steps froward , stopping a few inches away from Alpha Myra .

Her voice dropped as she bent and whispered .

“ Oh , you’d be surprised ,” she said .

Then she straightened , and turned slowly , facing the council .

“ I’m pregnant .

” She announced .

Then she reached for the clasp of her cloak and let the fabric fall from her shoulders , revealing gentle swell beneath her dress – there was a baby bump , clear enough to back up her announcement .

She rested a hand on her stomach , a smug smile playing at her lips .

“ And I am certain , that this child is a boy .
