Summary
Will tightened, rather than loosened, his grip on her neck. Moved his right hand down from where it clasped his wrist to her heart, to feel it beating first impossibly hard, and then slower, weaker, as it ran out of oxygen. His eyes lifted and met Hannibal’s gaze boring into him, his face unreadable to anyone else, but Will could see the pride in his eyes.
Finally, her heart slowed to nothing. The last beats of it were faint, drowned out by Will’s own pulse, and he let her body drop, lifeless, to the living room floor.
Hannibal opened his mouth, but Will already knew the question.
“Good. It feels good.” he said.
He bent to the floor to pick up the phone and placed it impassively back onto its cradle on the wall. He walked over to Hannibal and knelt beside him, their eyes locking again.
“A different man has risen from the water.” Hannibal said.
“Yes.” was Will’s reply.
