Literally Dance.

I saw this then read it, it was awesome and so I decided to share it with ya'll.

“He led her to the dance floor, raising her hand and placing a soft kiss upon her knuckles before taking her in his arms. It was a slow song, a familiar one but she couldn’t place it at that moment. All she could focus on was his hand on the small of her back. Her body was flush against his as they moved in sync across the parquet floor.

She allowed him to direct their movements, barely able to breathe let alone speak. At one time, this would have been the happiest moment in her life. That he had noticed her, coveted her, chased her and romanced her. Now, she prayed she would just make it through this night…alive.

The knife gleamed as it caught the light. He smiled as he traced the blade up and down her arm, taunting her. He leaned closer, his breath on her neck sending shivers of revulsion through her. She turned her head away, tears running down her face over the duct tape covering her mouth.

“You’re mine. You’ll always be mine,” he whispered as the blade entered her, piercing her flesh over and over again.

She began to feel empty…cold. They had stopped dancing, how long ago she wasn’t sure. Time seemed to be irrelevant. She could feel her heart slowing, her body growing heavy and then, she was falling.

As the darkness closed in – she wished she wasn’t about to die in his arms."
