It's All Coming Back To Me

FitzDutiful didn't answer the boy - no, the beta's question. It wasn't worth answering since he had no positive information to share. Even the birth of his children had been shrouded in misery but he supposed that was maybe information to share later on as it seemed even Charon had had misfortune fall upon his pack.

"I'm sorry to hear about Ragnar and the pup," he replied, "but it's great news that you're beta! Was Ragnar your father?" He wasn't quite sure why the question came to him. It seemed to make sense but FitzDutiful wasn't in the mindset of making assumptions. For Charon to be a beta, so young, it stood to reason that he had been the son of an alpha - it was the only way that Mason would be made beta when he came of age. He wasn't entirely sure who Ragnar was, either, so again it stood that Ragnar and Thistle had been an alpha pair - or a pairing with extreme influence to convince the alphas to let them breed.
