Camilla bolted, and Phox knew he would need to track her down later and explain that it hadn't been her fault. Towhee had a short fuse that was even shorter when she was in the middle of an argument. At Quixote's response, Phox found himself wondering what he was hiding. Were there things that the leader of the pack didn't want his underlings to know? What kind of secrets was he keeping? Phox furrowed his brow, thinking that he would bring this up with Towhee later.

Again, Quixote insisted that Phox leave, and again, Phox didn't see the point. Sooner or later, he'd know what was going on. He certainly wasn't happy with the alpha right now. He might not ever be at this rate. Towhee's begrudging agreement was met with a silent, disappointed shake of his head. He did as he was told by the only leader who held his loyalty these days. He left, ignoring Quixote completely in doing so.
