She hadn't expected that and she swallowed quickly trying to keep herself from showing the fear that was threatening to bubble over. Her eyes followed that drop of ruby liquid until it disappeared only its trail evidence that he'd even been cut. "I've taken many lives before, I could do it again." This is why you never played with fire, fire liked to play back and it burned and burned bad. She'd bitten off a bit more than she could chew with this but she forced her fear of the past down and then the fear was overridden by those instincts. She was extremely aware that his skin and hers had only a whisper of a barrier between them and she also realized that those lips were firm and gentle making her crave more. His light touch caused her eyes to go soft and she shook her head, "Aren't you the one who's always pointing out my youth? With age comes experience as well you know." A soft sigh, Besides I never claimed to be a good Drow..." The dagger clattered to the floor beside her and she fought the maelstrom of emotions inside her."You want to play this game? Let's see how far you can go Sevilin..." Fear, confusion, desire, all mingled into one and finally she just couldn't let him win so she clasped the back of his head and pulled him down to hers giving him a stormy kiss that bespoke of just what she needed.

There it was, that moment he's been waiting for...though he let her instincts have the taste of what she would never fully have...before he bit down on her bottom lip, rather hard. Followed by his yanking away and a sound crack of the back of his hand to her cheek. That smile as he licked the blood on his own lips away....and chuckled as he was backing away.
"That is your weakness...you women can't see it...giving into your bodies and blinding yourself to the danger that creeps right in front of you. You may be different from any woman I've been with, but I'm different from any male you've ever known...I'm not scared of you, I won't give into your whims and bait...and especially not your instincts. A weakness that is bred into the females of the species..." And drow hated those.

Oh by Lloth, just a little bit more. She'd never quite felt this way about a kiss that she'd given someone and had just begun to really enjoy it, all fear fading when he turned on her. She winced as he bit down but didn't connect it just yet, her mind still fuzzy as her instincts had taken over. Violet pools full of confusion and the last remnants of desire soon closed and she stood there for a long moment, dazed and confused. What had just happened? One hand came up to hold her cheek and she simply stared at him for a moment, vulnerability, another thing drow hated, written all over her face. His words cut through the fog that had filled her mind and she blinked back tears that were threatening. "I never wanted you to fear me..." she said softly. It was difficult to place exactly what she was feeling right now, she'd really thought for a moment there that he was different, but he wasn't. The moment he got a chance he paid her back for everything. "You're right Sevilin, it does make us weak and gives you the advantage. Congratulations, you've proven your point. Celebrate your victory." By Lloth she was not going to cry, after all he'd stopped, for whatever reason he had stopped but she slowly leaned back against the wall and sank down to the floor a mass of emotions and feelings, unable to cope with the sudden change. The game had gotten out of control, the fire had consumed her and now she had to recuperate.

His own look help no tell of what he was thinking over it...though he had visibly relaxed as if he had been tensed up for some horried retaliation from her. Though soon enough a raised eyebrow was seen and he looked...slightly perplexed. Wait...what just happened here? The look on her face was raw emotion, not bluffing. He knew the difference well.
Though he forced his features to harden, wouldn't give into his own curiousness about it all, that would leave him vulnerable himself and he wouldn't let that happen. "THen you should not threaten with death adn unspeakable things, should you? You speak as a hypocrite and act as one as well." His hand came up to grasp as this throat, holding over the slight puncture wound.
"Victory? I find no victory in this...any other man might but I do not. Let this be your first true lesson from me. Play with fire and you get burned, push to far and you get hurt....the world is not as easy to manipulate as you have been taught by your peers. Now get up..." What was the ordering all about now?

She ran her fingers over her face and through her hair trying to get some equilibrium back with her emotions. Sevilin had taken her on quite the ride and towards the end she'd wanted off so much it had literally hurt. "I never threatened you," she snapped pushing herself off the wall, holding onto anger to keep herself steady. "Besides that the entire drow lifestyle is hypocritcal. Why should I be any different? You were trying to teach me a lesson and you succeeded. Revel in your victory or despise it, I don't much care." And with that she leaned down and picked up the dagger that had fallen from her limp hand and wiped his blood off of it with her skirt then resheathed it. "I never claimed I was anything other than what I am. You have assumed and so have I and we both know different, now don't we?"

And there she was, back to her old horrid self already. Such fickle things, young elves. "So putting a dagger to my throat is not threatening? You have a way with your thinking." a slight shrug. "I merely assumed that you were better...those who run from being sacrified are marked as different, that I know." He knew about that? Of course he did...had runes all over this place and Malik talked of it before.
A shake of his head. "Be as you want...just know that I won't be what my nature tells me to be." What did he mean by that? Nature dictated that he was to sit at a woman's feet and be used as she pleased, and be ruled by her hand...he refused to. He'd been like that too long. "Get your reverie early tonight...we have lessons in the morning."
That said he turned his back on her, heading downstairs while wiping blood from his hand onto his pant leg. Yup, hated himself now and felt dirty.

But he had taken her life into his hands first. She'd not raised that blade until she felt her life depended on it. She watched him go with equal parts anger and confusion and she turned from the hall and headed into her bedroom. That had been quite the morning now hadn't it? Flopping back on her bed, she closed her eyes for a moment and wondered just how the game had gotten so out of control. They'd both been baiting and testing each other, she knew that now. Underestimating him had been a bad move but she'd learned her lesson from that now. He was just like all the other males and she filed that away for later use. Shook up from the ordeal and exhausted from the constant up and down of emotions she did drop into reverie rather fast.

well back up and in the fortress for him. and back to thier room, and yes, back in bed to relax, and take a look at how his legs where doing. the muscles were still distorted a bit, and he had to clnech his teeth when he moved them under his skin to where they needed to be, rebinding them with necromantic magics. Too much pain, and he laid back, taking a few breaths and relaxing some. slave could bring him food and drink if needed.
Though a slight grin. Sevilin thought he was so clever. Malik knew that there were runes all over this place. he knew because iof roles were reversed, he'd do exactly the same thing. but Piper coudl help fix that. or even Zahara once she learned a thing or two. and Piper was right. he did take a perverse pleasure in what he was attempting to arrange. manipulation of your 'peers' was one of the most enjoyable things..trying to make the two most hateful beings actually fall in bed together. and by doing so, perhaps binding Sevilin with a much stronger force than money. woudln't that be worth it.

Huh who would have thought he would actually listen to her and go back upstairs and rest. He was fickle sometimes that was for sure. But Piper merely slid down the wall to sit in the dirt, drawing her knees to her chest and resting her chin on them. She wanted a break...that's all she wanted. A break from all the worry and strife, the occassional heart ache and all the fighting. Piper had to admit it, she was a surface elf...she could only take so much really. But she could only allow herself so much self pity now couldn't she. So standing up and finishing up things in the stables she headed out...only to slam into something. Next thing she knew she was being jerked by her collar and triple colored eyes looked up to meet blood red.
Just his luck...trying to leave and he gets rammed into by the surface elf who wasn't paying attention. "You know surface trash you should learn to look where you're going." Did he care about the disrespect? No, Malik wasn't around. And he was still pissed off from his little confrontation with Zahara...Lloth only knew how that was going to pan out for tomorrow's lesson, right?
"Shut the hell up, and let me go Tel'gothrim." Oh and Sevilin, being Andalian as well, would know that phrase all to well. Basic insult to a drow. And as she saw it certinally got a snarl out of him...and her a slight shaking by her collar courtesy of Sevilin.
"Aren't you adorable with your little insults. Pitty you surface trash bruise so easily...or I'd have a lot more fun teaching you the meaning of respect." One of those smirks at her then. "Then again you don't have any do you, playing bed toy to a drow and all. You just think you're big and bad, hiding under his wing. Go one play your games, I'll pay them no mind." And with a yank of his arm he more or less tossed and stumbled her forward behind him by he collar as he let her go and started to walk off.
Feet untrained for the Underdark led her to tripping and hitting the ground hard as he had more or less tossed her. Pushing up out of the dark she turned, only to get sight of his retreating back. "You damnable rune mage!" That was it, she was sick of him. Brushing some blood from her cheek from a scrap she'd taken from that fall, she stormed inside, slamming doors and up to her room to rifle through her bookcase, muttering. Damn him, damn him to hell. Where was that damn book.

Malik watched Piper ruffling through her drawers, and then noted teh scrape on her cheek.
"What's going on?"
He had a guess, but he wasn'ta bout to play on it until he knew for sure what was going on. You'd be surprised how fast malik woudl summon a cleric to heal his wounds if he felt the need to.

"I am scheming, that's what's going on." Words were short spoken as she apparently found what she was looking for and sunk down on the floor crosslegged, flipping through pages and givign another rub at her cheek. Why was it always the little scraps and such that could always hurt the worse. Not to mention getting tugged around by her collar was a literal pain in the neck. what was she doing? Looking to give that rune mage a nasty surprise next time he touched her. Her mother was a rune mage after all and the talent wasn't completely wasted on Piper. "By Innoruuk's cauldron I hate him so much." How cute, Malik was rubbing off on her.

"Sevilin. what did he do?"
Malik reached over, and grabbed Malvolence from it's stand only pulling over a bit closer, but enough to get teh job he wanted done. not two minutes later a cleric came into the room..and first started toward Piper.
"Over here."
That got a look, but the cleric obliged. he knew Malik's injuries. and did his work, healing the muscle and bone with arcane and sacred magics, before he gave a nod and left before he was asked to work on Piper. the look on her face spelled death to clerics.

That got a look from her and a blink as well. What was that about? "I thought you were against the quick fix way of things?" Piper pushed up off the floor, walking over to the desk still sporting that absolutely pissed look, which was only intensified by pain from her ears and the little manhandling Sevilin had given her. Surface elves were quite fragile if worked in the right ways after all. A piece of paper and a pen were fetched from the drawer and she took to copying some sort of list from that book she had, along with a few symbols from some flipped pages. "He is being a jackass simply because they had a fight...I'm assuming so, since he had blood on him." That look turned almost sweetly evil...Sevilin would get a shock wouldn't he? The list? Ingrediants for a rune aid to help the young in learning...it was a godsend as she remembered. "Thinks he can simply throw around who he wants and talk however he wants...damnable Tel'gothrim. I won't have it anymore."

"There are times when priorites need quick fixes."
He got up, and sheathed Malvolence at his side, and drummed his fingers lightly on the hilt. orders given to Broog and Tremor.
"Is he still in the house, or is he gone?"
that would of course affect his ability and how he might confront Sevilin. Piper knew malik that well. disrespect and quite frankly, manhandling those that were his were not tolerated. hell she had been there when he'd had someone thrown out for manhandling a slave girl.

"Thankfully he's gone because I don't want to deal with him and his bad attitude anymore today. In fact I hope he get hit by a rock on the way home, passes out, and gets eaten by some Underdark...thing...." A little vindictive maybe? She intended to ******** with him, rune mage style. First thing to go would be his little spy runes she had caught around the place. Secondly, he'd never be grabbing her collar again without a nasty reaction that induced pain. Twice now he did it and frankly once was too much. Oh wait, that just registered with her. "What are you planning on doing?" A frown. "He's mine Malik. If anyone is going to ******** with him, I want to do it." She said ********? Harsh word to come from sweet little Piper. Yup she was seething.
