"You do not want to vex me, woman," he thundered. "I said we are going back, and that is final!"
Levina shook her head. "I have to ease myself first." She turned to leave, but he grabbed her arm and pulled her back.
Levina dropped the flowers to the ground as she fought back. He easily overpowered her and flung her over his shoulder, cursing under his breath.
With shaky fingers, Levina retrieved the small blade from her dress, and with as much strength as she could muster, she drove it into his neck.
Tomoe staggered. Surprise, shock, and ultimately pain shot through him. He threw Levina to the ground, and his hand immediately flew to his neck in a futile attempt to stop the bleeding.
Levina backed away and watched him fall from a distance. She only stood up and went over to him when the slurping sound died.
