There was a calm and composure to the way that Caiaphas held herself, but this was nothing unusual for the female, who was normally just as cool as ice, and stoic in a way that was easy for Niamh to admire. Now, though, she found it incredibly irritating that she spoke with such conviction, turning against the kind alpha female that had let her and her two suckling children join the pack. What else should she have expected, given the fact that she’d been allowed to join in those circumstances- Caiaphas’ own babe had moved forward to greedily suckle on Raven the day they’d joined, and he hadn’t been discouraged. They’d given everything to Caiaphas and now that her pups were old enough, she was just going to change their situation- as Niamh knew full well no wolf in the pack was simply going to roll over and let Caiaphas take charge.
Well, Niamh wasn’t, anyway. If anything, Raven’s children or Towhee were next in line to take over- not some stranger, even though Caiaphas probably wouldn’t have made a bad alpha. What she was doing now, however, was in poor taste and Niamh couldn’t accept it. She shook her head, frowning deeply at Caiaphas’ comment, that she was doing what was right. She growled softly. ”This isn’t right, trying to usurp alphaship from Raven; she’d out looking for a valued member of our pack- and has left perfectly capable substitutes in charge in her absence,” She said, hackles lifting. If Caiaphas dared to challenge her on that, then she was challenging Niamh directly. True- another alpha might have valued the safety of the pack over that of an individual, but she hadn’t left to go searching for long stints, she’d always come back when she’d said she would, and she and Colt couldn’t ever go too far. Niamh knew first hand what Raven was up to- simply because her mate was with the alpha every time she went out searching.
”She’s not hiding, she’s searching. And how dare you, seriously, after we took you and your two suckling children in? If Raven’d been anything like you, she would have sent you and your kids away the day you showed up.” She said, reminding Caiaphas of the assets that a kind leader offered, as she seemed to have forgotten. When Towhee showed up, Niamh took solace in her support, and snorted, nodding, as her Person spoke. She took one step toward Caiaphas, ears pricked to show she meant business.
”Not a single wolf in this pack is going to follow you.” She said. ”Not today, not ever.” The same conviction that possessed Caiaphas had seeped into Niamh’s frame as well, and the growl had left her voice. This pack was built on the foundation of family- and she’d be damned if that was about to change.
