Rae was a bloodthirsty demon, the Alpha refused to stay down, beating all odds, over and over and over again.
It was enough to convince the petty thugs around him to stick by him without questioning his authority.
He dreamed big, he dreamed enough for all of them. And they were content with that because, as followers, they didn't need to take responsibility for anything.
He took them from being bottom feeders to being an actual gang in their own right, one that was acknowledged enough to earn them their own territory downtown. However small and inconsequential that was.
It was already far more than they could have ever achieved on their own.
So when Rae suggested they try to work their way up to become affiliated with a Mafia House and potentially become full members of a Mafia House and completely turn their situation around, they agreed in a heartbeat.
