“How about memory manipulation?”
“No.”
Coco continued down the list. “Mental manipulation…that’s a yes, because I felt it earlier. Ditto for pain inducement.”
“What?”
“I had no choice but to come to you. Trust me. I tried to ignore your call, and the second I did, it felt like an invisible hand twisted a knot inside my stomach, then came up my throat and grabbed me around the neck, wrenching me toward the fortress. It was awful.”
“Gosh. I had no idea. I am so sorry.”
She shrugged. “The pain only subsided after I changed course and started flying in this direction.” She looked down at her notes again. “What about psychic navigation?”
“Sorry, what?”
“Searching for and finding a particular thought in another person’s mind.”
“Is that even possible?”
“It could be, for you, along with psychic blocking. You must have done some psychic blocking, if the Regent does not yet realize what’s going on between you and Xander. If he knew you are no longer a virgin, or if it were to become public knowledge, he would have already announced a new Chosen.” She closed her notebook and set it down beside her. “You and I would end up with our heads on the chopping block.”
“No doubt.”
“You know what I think?”
“What?”
“You will only get stronger. Five days is not a lot of time. We need to prepare.”
“We are destined for death, Coco, aren’t we?”
Coco shook her head. “I do believe Sector Two has a brand new weapon against the ravagers.”
“Which is?”
“You.”
