The sheen of the bladed weapon in Cordelia's hand caused the maiden to hold a horrifying scream. It became even greater when she realized the bride was preparing to bury the dagger in the First Prince!
Klaus, in agile movements, was ignoring any obstacle to quickly reach the top of the float. Alexa could not allow him to be murdered, though.
Going around the big rose-shaped prop, the maiden arrived at the flowery throne at the same time as the Prince, only on opposite sides. She grabbed Cordelia's elbow from behind, and at that moment the maiden realized it was definitely not her, but a stuntman.
The killer was stronger than she was. And even though the assassin was taken by surprise, the false Cordelia gave Alexa a shove and freed the arm yielding the blade.
