***Ryker***
Excruciating, the pain from the extremely tight grip on my neck was just acute. I just felt a force squeezing life out of me, and even though it happened for a few seconds I was still feeling it. How the hell had Tamara done that so fast? I was sure as hell that wasn't her wolf talking, she would never physically use her powers on me.
This, this was an entirely different force. Formidable than the power my mate possessed. What the hell was that? My beast was still shaken up, and he had retreated on the back of my conscious. A power that left my mate unconscious, but breathing peacefully. It had been roughly 10 minutes since collapsed, that was immediately after I was set free.
I had mind linked my mother instead of rushing her to the infirmary. I knew that, that particular incident was the one that had drained energy from her. She would recover but I figured with my mother around, she would be in safer hands.
