Silvertip Mountain Nobody likes a tattle-tale

He chuckled, glad that Ezekiel had taken his joke so well, but turned serious once again when his friend admitted that he was apprehensive about being too assertive. Steady could certainly understand that. I think many wolves go through that, including myself. To be completely honest with you, I had no aspirations of becoming Alpha of his pack- it was my brother's, after all, and Mason was next in line, he explained, hoping his pack mate wouldn't think less of him for admitting that. I was content to be their follower, to help them rise and succeed. It was through necessity that I took on leadership, and it's quite an adjustment. I've never had to decide whether or not someone needs a punishment...he trailed off, thinking of Anita for a moment and what he should do there. 

He took a deep breath, coming back to the present and Ezekiel. You just have to find the right balance for you. Maybe you only need to voice to them that they need to cease their actions, maybe you need to physically reprimand them, it will all depend on the situation. He hoped that helped Ezekiel with his confidence a little. You're welcome to come to me with any questions, he offered. Maybe in the future he wouldn't take on the problems of his pack mates, and instead try to guide them to their own answers. This one, however, would be one he dealt with.
