"I'm the Alpha." She sighed, moving back a little - she shouldn't be behaving like this, not if it would cause her Beta to lose faith in her leadership. He was her brother, yes, but deep down, he was still a member of her pack... A pack she was sure her mom had so much more she should've taught her, before...
Hearing Derek's admittance though, she relaxed a little more, her hands running up and down his arms. They were a pair - even in the pack before, they were a pair. But now it really was just the two of them, Derek was right - they didn't know what they were doing, really. "Isaac is family now, or as good as, even if he prefers to be a slave over a free wolf. Our slaves... They will be, in time. And Scott... Maybe one day he'll come home. Find himself, and be happy here again." She shrugged, smiling sadly. "I can speak to Mir, if you'd like? Or you can, if you think he'd listen. If it will make you feel better, if it'll strengthen us as a pack, I trust you. You're practically my second in command, Derek, you know that." She leant in, and kissed him on the forehead as softly as possible.
