Dancing with our hands tied. -jaylor-

When karlie came home josh was back.
"Where did you go?"
"To visit my mom."
"Lair." He put his hand on her shoulder
"Babe I swear."
"I told you that if you met her again I would kill her."
"NO NO BABE I SWEAR! DONT HURT HER!"
"Seriously watch it karlie, your treading on thing ice."
"I'll do what ever you want!"
"You can start by making dinner. I have to go back to New York for work again in a few hours."
"New York?"
"It's none of your business!"

For such a confident woman she looked very vulnerable when she slept. So delicate and fragile, if he wanted to he could've easily killed her right then but he was enjoying playing with her and needed the leverage over karlie so he continued with the threats. Now he understood what karlie saw in here, laying there she looked very beautiful. Josh thought of how easy it would be to just take her to his hotel room and enjoy her. He had the chloroform in his pocket but didn't want to ruin his plan.

When Taylor woke up there was a box on her bedside table. She decided to wake Joe up.
"Babe?"
"Yeah"
"Did you put that box on my bedside table?"
"No."
"Oh my god what if it's another threat! Were they here last night!"
"There have been security outside all night."
"We need to open it."
The box contained a phone with a video open on it and a note 'for a paranoid bitch you sleep very deeply.'
"Press play."
It started off outside. Then he climbed up the tree outside the window and jumped in. He walked over to a sleeping Taylor. Joe wrapped his arm around her protectively and pulled her close. The man stroked her cheek with a gloved hand before gliding a blade over her neck, she looked extremely vulnerable and helpless like it would have only taken a second for him to slit her throat right there.
"Babe. It's ok we're going to be ok" he tried to reassure her. The man lightly scratched her neck which she instinctively touched before tracing her lips with his finger, he slid his hands over her neck, collar bone, chest and under her covers all the way down. He then placed two bullets next to the box. They looked over to see them there.
Taylor crossed her arms over her chest protectively.
"Your safe now baby. I'm here!"
"I'll never be safe Joe."
"I'll never let you get hurt though."
"I know"
"Tonight I'll keep security outside the window aswell."
"Thanks baby."
