"You're working for Lucas, Kelly said, her voice unwavering, even in the midst of the chaos. "He sent you to Seaville, didn't he? You're the one who links him to cau."

Wally's face contorted into a mocking sneer. "You know too much for your own good."

Before Kelly could move, he lunged at her, the knife sliding through the air, aimed for her throat.

These men were killers, trained in precision and brutally. Every motion was deadly, their strikes swift and calculated.

Faye stood paralyzed, terror pinning her in place. Her breath caught in her throat, her body trembling in fear.

Kelly didn't flinch. She remained rooted to the spot, her feet unyielding to the panic that threatened to take over. She tilted her head back, bracing for impact. In that heartbeat, as the blade came down, she, drove the fruit knife deep into Wally's carotid artery.

Warm blood sprayed across her hands as she staggered back. Her knees buckled beneath her, and she collapsed, the metallic scent of blood filling her senses. She pressed her hand against the wound, but the flow wouldn't stop.

As a doctor, Kelly knew the cut wasn't deep enough to sever her windpipe. She wasn't going to die just yet. But Wally... He was on borrowed time.

Wally gasped, his expression morphing into shock and fury as he gripped the knife embedded in his neck. He dropped to his knees, his gaze locking onto Kelly's with a mixture of disbelief and rage.

"I've severed your carotid artery," Kelly muttered, her voice strained. She still held her neck, fighting the blood that refused to slow. "If you pull that knife out, you're done for."

With blood-slick fingers, Kelly grabbed the short blade from the floor, her grip shaky but determined. She yanked Wally's hair back, pressing the knife to his throat with chilling precision. Her eyes flickered toward the figures gathering outside the door.

The blood continued to pour, staining her shirt a dark red, but her face remained pale, 'eyes hollow with resolve. She wasn't begging for mercy; instead, there was a deadly calm in her demeanor, a stillness that froze the air around her. "Step back," Kelly commanded her voice as sharp as the blade at Wally's throat. "Or I'll kill him."

Wally froze. He wouldn't try to pull the knife out and see what would happen. Instead, he told his men to back off

The group hesitated, frozen by the sight of her unwavering defiance. Fear crept into their movements, the uncertainty of what to do next palpable in the air.

Wally didn't expect this. A woman, particularly one so fragile-looking, wasn't supposed to be the one to stop him.

"You've been to Solmaris, haven't you?" Kelly's voice was weak, blood staining her lips as she spoke. "It's hell there."

Her vision blurred, the edges of her world fading, but she forced a faint smile as she looked at him. Her
