His words were humbling. Respect was important to her, and to know that he had so much for her made her want to never give him a reason to regret it. But she also felt she needed to tell him: That respect is returned. She dipped her head, offering brief smile. Anyone who had the nerve to speak up against the alpha in front of the entire pack while also being a new member had her respect. That went for Asra too, although she barely knew the northern woman and so it was tentative. Taikon, she knew well enough at this point, that his show of bravery only solidified a respect that had already been growing. She didn't see it as the betrayal that some of the pack did. As a leader, she would have never demanded such unquestioning obedience from her pack—that only created weak minds. And if the request had been warranted and better planned, Wylla might have had the compliance of more of them, including Taki, but instead it was a rash and emotional decision, and she would not risk her life for impulsivity. 

He assured her he did not feel obligated to stay, going further as to remind her that he was also a warrior. She raised an eyebrow. Being a warrior does not make you immune to injury, she pointed out. It makes you more likely to be injured, as you are more likely to throw yourself into danger. She was not doubting his skills or his competence, but she didn't him or any others she cared for getting hurt over an unnecessary war.
