Shadowstorm (The Shadow World Book 6) - Plot & Excerpts
“If he so much as twitches, break his neck again—don’t give him a chance to regain consciousness until I permit it.” The four Elite he’d assigned to guard Nico’s body bowed in assent. They all looked as bewildered as he felt, and uneasy about what they’d been ordered to do. Neck snapping was considered fairly extreme as a sedative among vampires; it worked, yes, but it was difficult to heal and could take days before the victim regained the full range of motion. Anything involving the nervous system was tricky. Doing it over and over again could cause long-term, though not permanent, damage to the body, and had been known to permanently affect the mind. David could only assume that Nico would come out of it faster than the average. But they had few alternatives. The tranquilizer Deven had dosed him with last time only worked for half an hour at most, and a few doses in Nico had already started to develop a tolerance. There was no place here they could keep him that he couldn’t escape, if he was conscious and able to move; he could Mist anywhere he liked, and even if he couldn’t he could build a portal without breaking a sweat and vanish into the city to unleash his wrath upon the entire population.
