Don't Hold Your Breath

He grazed his fingers across her neck and gently pushed her up against the wall; pinning her. She smiled, though his face showed no other expression than determination. He looked her in the eyes and flashed a mischievous grin.

'Do you trust me?' He asked in a low tone.

'What do you mea--'

'Do you trust me?' He interrupted in slight frustration.

'Well, I guess. I mean, yeah--'

'No. Do you trust me?'

'Yes.' She finally responded.

'With your life?'

'Yes.' She answered, a little taken back by his question.

'Really?' He stated more than anything else.

'Yeah.' She said.

He slowly ran his hand further from the nape of her neck and smiled as he wrapped his fingers around her trachea. She didn't struggle. At first she was just humoring him, but when she couldn't breathe she began to panic and reach for her throat. He grabbed her wrist with his free hand and pinned it back up against the wall. In a calm, yet firm voice he asked her, mockingly, 'I thought you said you trusted me, you lied?'

'No.' She sputtered.

'Do you trust me?'

She nodded and tried to calm herself, rationalize her thoughts. She started to feel dizzy and began to lose consciousness. Her body was limp as he ran his tongue over the edge of her ear.

'You shouldn't have.'

    Wow! I must agree with my friend LadyRage this is truly an amazing write. I did not see this ending coming. That is a statement all on it's on not everyone can be trusted. I think you opened our minds to that again and now were more aware. It has me looking for more of your work. What more can I say... Amazing write.

    Very nice. It makes a statement... Not everyone can be trusted to make the best decisions for you in your life. She trusted him with her life and that was the very thing that caused her fate. Hopefully, others will read this and leave this page thinking a little differently. Great write.
