Well the alpha-beta thing I have read in lycan fictions and it seemed its also present to some degree in wolves. I don't actually mind having that specially as Sky wished it so.<br/><br/>[Just if anyone is interested, couldn't resist since I did a tiny research :) ]<br/>Interestingly it seems wolves packs are mostly actually generations of off springs with a parent (since only the alpha can mate) hence some claims that there's no alpha just parents dominating children. Also it seems alpha's are not leader in the human sense but rather one who has the most freedom to do anything they want like choose where they wanna  hunt, rest or getting the first bite on the kill.<br/><br/>But in lycan lores as far as I read there has been a alpha leader but cannibalism that I have never read. Mind you I haven't read much lycan lores.
