It hurt. Very bad. But what didn't help was his hand at my throat.

He had anger in his eyes. Hatred that couldn't be replaced by anything else.

I could feel the sharp pain through my back. Blood was going up my throat and spilling onto Levi's hand. He didn't seem to mind though. His brown eyes kept staring into mine.

I had to think of a plan. Ben left me and I was not about to abandon David. He didn't deserve it.

I couldn't speak otherwise he would have been in agonizing pain by now. So I choked out one word. One word that should really get to him, "Leslie."

He looked at me with the same look. Then his eyes filled with pain and tears.

"How do you know her?!" He said re- throwing me against the wall and tightening his grip on my neck.

"She can't speak. Let her explain. But in order for her too, you have to let her go. Please." David said.

Levi turned his head to him; and stared him down.

David slowly walked over to me; removing the knife from my stomach. He put his arm under the backs of my knees and his other behind my back. "Please."

Slowly Levi released me.

Coughing up blood, David hurried and carried me to my bed, the collapsed on it himself.

I moved my hands to the front of my stomach and put pressure on the wound. I had no energy to. But I did my best.

"Now talk, before I kill you."

The pain was bad. But venom spreading is worse. So I didn't show pain, when on the inside I'm screaming.

"She..." I had to take breaths between each word, "was your wife.... And.... You killed her...."

"I did NOT kill her!"

I laughed, "You wanna hear something?"

"No!" He started walking to me again.

"Pain," I said. And he crumpled to the ground just as once before.

I got up; the wound almost healed. I grabbed the knife from where David dropped it, and sat on my knees next to Levi, "The pain. It hurts doesn't it? You deserve it. You know what else you deserve? To die. But first. You deserve to suffer. But... Sense there's company, you'll just die a... Messy death."

I held the knife over him as he was shaking in pain. Getting a tighter grip I asked, "Any last words?"

He shook his head and I took in a breath and- "Wait!" David yelled.

"I turned around and glared at him. "What?!"

"Why. Why kill him?"

"Besides the fact that he tried to kill you and me?"

"What if-" And he was cut off and replaced with agonizing screams.

Turning to Levi I realized something.... He wasn't there anymore.
