Rafe's POV
Like an obedient student, she followed my instructions and held the tool in perfect grip.
"Now it's up to you whether you want him to die in a moment or suffer for as long as you wish," I told her as I stepped back, giving her space to tell her she held the sovereignty over this place and over her own decision, that no one's gonna meddle in.
When I thought she was going to stab him again, she didn't. Instead, she knelt on the ground and picked up the tape which had fallen after I uncovered his mouth.
She looked at him, while another wave of terror flashed in his tear-filled eyes. "Please...don't kill me...I have a family...wife..kids...waiting for me..."
Unflinching, unblinking, she slapped that tape over his mouth to shut him.
Either she didn't want to hear his annoying scream and wanted to make him suffer more while not being able to even make a sound, or she was taking revenge for when they must have shut her mouth as well.
