Trouble with a capital T

His words bit into her. More painful than she had expected. Why had his parents raised him in such a way? Her ears fall back as she stops for a moment. Weak and stupid? Who gave him the right to call her such things? She could see he was just as tired as she was. All she wanted was to collapse and go to sleep, but she wasn’t going to give up.

“What makes you stupider than me is assuming I’m weak,” Delphi seethed as her eyes narrowed slightly. In the next second, she was lunging through the muck toward the boy. Her jaw opened up and aimed to take a bite out of his paw.
