Autumn had a point Caiaphas had not been willing to exploit -- as much as she would like to believe she was an apex predator, it simply was not so. The brief interaction with the bear Jackson had painfully reminded the coywolf of that.

Her ridiculously long ears flew back against her skull in huffiness, and with a slow breath drawn out in furor she eyed the little fox vehemently. "I've killed lots of fox.. How many coyotes have you killed?" She had no comeback for Autumn's original retort, and instead had to resort to cowishly changing the ad hominem.
