Davina could feel her heart race faster with each passing second that the knife remained pinned against Gerrick's neck. "I miscalculated everything!" she ran through numerous outcomes in her head but none of them seemed feasible in that situation.
"Davy, whatever you're going to do, think of yourself first before anything else... don't be reckless in trying to save me!" Gerrick swallowed hard as he felt the knife lightly graze his skin, causing blood to trickle down his neck.
"That was just a teaser," said the man who was behind Gerrick.
Davina tried not to panic as she saw the blood come out of Gerrick's neck. Regardless of what he said, her top priority was getting him to safety and nothing else.
"Tick-tock Davy." Silver rested his chin on his folded fists as he rhythmically tapped his fingers on the wooden hand of the chair.
