'We need to talk. Some Elders want to see you.', Maya said before Damon closed the mind-link.
Maya wanted to discuss this during their regular sync-up after dinner, but since they were already talking, she decided to bring this up. It was important.
Damon pressed his lips into a line. Elders want to talk to him?
Elders are senior people whose previous service to the pack earned them a title of an Elder. They are not ready to retire and still want to serve the pack by guiding younger generations. They would normally have roles as advisors to the Alpha and manage issues within the pack for which Alpha shouldn't bother with.
Once Damon took over as the Alpha of the Dark Howlers pack, he removed Elders as his advisors because he suspected that some of them were involved with the death of his parents, and also because they wanted to manipulate him.
