The Woman From Hell

I saw Nicky smile in a sinister manner. Putting on a posture of extreme comfort, she said leisurely, "Of course, it's so that I can do it myself."

My eyes followed the knife in her hand closely, for fear that she would swing the knife down in haste.

"You've already got your wish. Why are you still trying to hurt me?" I asked her.

Nicky glanced at the two people behind her, her eyes narrowing. "Go outside and stand guard. Sound an alert immediately if you notice movement."
