TAMSIN Penny had helped us, but she had also gotten us captured. Evelyn buried her face in her hands, she prayed. Frowning, I clutched my chest. Something was wrong. I couldn't feel Iarred anymore. Blinking back the tears, I tried focusing and steadying my breath. Why can’t I feel him? He can't be dead. My mate was an excellent warrior, and nothing made him tremble with fear. Though I knew that he was mortal. There was no way that any human would be able to take him down. Besting him in battle, and snatching his life were two vastly different things. My breathing became rapid as I frantically scurried to a standing position, leaning against the wall. Closing my eyes, I attempted to search for him. Usually, a thought could summon him nearer to me. Evelyn placed her hand on my shoulder.
