Although Mason Sutton was his son, if he didn't have formidable strength, he wouldn't be able to command respect even if he inherited his position in the future.
As for who would inherit his position then, both Corbin Crowley and Zeke Veridian were good choices.
Though they weren't his own sons, sons-in-law were half-sons in his eyes, so it didn't make much difference to him.
Corbin Crowley had no idea what Lyle Sutton was thinking, and glanced over at Mason Sutton, silver eyes flickering: "No more."
Mason Sutton turned his gaze to Rhys Blackwood, the implication clear.
Rhys Blackwood was teasing a few cubs when he caught Mason's look: "...Fed them to the snakes."
He did have a few left on him, but they were for his eight cubs—he barely had enough for his own kids, let alone extras for Mason?
"Zeke..."
Mason had just opened his mouth.
Zeke Veridian's emerald eyes swept over: "None."
