The meeting would soon begin, and the titan watched Tyranis with a hawks eye. He had no doubt that this yearling had potential, it was just a matter of how he'd show that potential and his strength and prowess to the pack. Acere thought back to their first spar, when he had agreed to train the boy. No doubt he still had much to learn and he'd be there every step of the way for the young alpha. Ears flicked at the mention of pups and marriage, none of it much of a concern to the man. He had no mate anymore nor children, and he doubted he would have another anytime soon if at all. But when it came to the elections, his eyes darted to those that had spoken. So far, only two had. Both vying for the same position. The one he knew as Ashmedai spoke of being the only one having been in a war...or how naive the man was. Acere had seen his fair share of war and cruel deeds both by himself and his kin. He had no idea.
Though he was younger than the other male, Acere was sure he had more experience from all the trials he had endured. He was a king once, he had everything. And with everything came war and loss and grief and everything in between. Finally when the woman Naudir finished her piece, Acere would speak. "I would like to elect myself for Chief Infantry Officer. Though I may not be as old as some here, I was a king once and have been through every trial. I am no stranger to war or death. I have seen kingdoms come and go. I have fought to protect my own as well as to take from others. I've not been to see the other packs though I have done a fair bit of traveling and I have seen a good part of the world. I have proved my strength and more to you in the battlefield, and if need be I will do it again." Crimson gaze remained fixed on Tyranis. He cared not what the others had to say. If he had an opinion though, he thought the Ashmedai guy sounded quite full of himself. But it would be up to Tyranis...or...them, he supposed. Either way, he'd prove himself as many times as was needed. He knew who the alpha's father was...but he wanted to find Elias first. Assuming the bastard was still alive.
