Regardless, I'd think that the members of the pack would have to "submit" to the new Alpha, rather than just automatically be accepted as a member of the pack. Think about it more as a "top dog at any given moment" situation with the Alphas, rather than one where their loyalty is assumed, like in some kind of jacked up nobility, royal bloodline, sort of thing. Even if that's how the Hale's come off at times....
