The knife’s sharp edge hovered dangerously close to Raegan’s eyes.
Raegan gripped Tessa’s hand tightly and tried, with all her might, to stop Tessa from stabbing her.
However, Tessa’s pill-induced strength was overwhelming, and Raegan felt her own stamina dwindling.
In a desperate move, Raegan kneed Tessa in the lower abdomen. The two wrestled and rolled toward the edge of a poorly repaired platform.

The instant he reached the second floor, a figure plummeting from above.
Bang! The sound of the impact was deafening.
Mitchel’s gaze snapped to the sight of a vivid crimson pooling on the ground.
