I stood there, having just watched my mate unleash a barrage of flying arrows, decimating those monsters in no time at all. I was awed by her power and ability. This was not how I thought my life was going to be like last year when I was told I had to find a mate. I never expected this much excitement in my life, that's for sure, but I would not trade the woman who was chosen to be mine, not for anything.
But, no matter how powerful she was, no matter how strong and capable she was, she was still mine to protect. And I planned to do my duty by her. I had allowed her to be hurt earlier, but I would not fail again. Too many times since she became mine she was targeted, I needed to stop the threats from coming at her ever again.
