Jamie’s arms wrapped around Armand’s neck. Although his right hand was incapacitated, he used his left hand to grip his right wrist tightly and pulled, using his forearm to brace against Armand’s windpipe.

Weakened as Jamie was, the blow was still forceful enough to make Armand buckle at the knees.
