Pack Mother.
Inspired a little by this book I'm reading called 'The Wolf Within' by Professor Bryan Sykes, in particular this one part where it describes how wolf packs are more like an extended family, with a single breeding female holding the role of leader along with her mate.

The Pillars of the Kings by Gus Hunter
Upon great pedestals founded in the deep waters stood two great kings of stone: still with blurred eyes and crannied brows they frowned upon the North. The left hand of each was raised palm outwards in gesture of warning; in each right hand there was an axe; upon each head there was a crumbling helm and crown. Great power and majesty they still wore, the silent wardens of a long-vanished kingdom.
