Riley's POVFor a moment, they just stared at me.Wendy's lips parted slightly like she wanted to speak, but no words came out. Daphne's grip tightened, her shoulders stiff, her eyes fixed on me like she was trying to measure something she couldn't understand."You've lost your mind," Wendy said.Her voice came out strained, but she tried to keep it steady.I didn't answer her."Fight me," I said instead.I flicked my wrist and threw the knife toward them. It landed between them with a sharp sound that cut through the silence."You can even shift if you like," I added. "Pick it up. Use it and come at me."They both looked down at the blade, then at each other.No more hesitation.Daphne bent quickly, grabbed the knife, and straightened in one smooth motion. Her eyes met Wendy's. A silent agreement passed between them.Then they moved. Both at once.Daphne came straight at me, fast, her arm already drawn back. Wendy circled slightly, trying to flank me, trying to trap me between them.
