Thread: Path to the Bloodied Crown (MasterOfWhispers and Frogger.)

Laidolyns mysterious, yet alluring, green eyes followed him down the hallway, until he was out of sight. Her cheeks flushing red, she quickly darted into the privacy of her borrowed room. Resting against the door, hand laying over her pounding heart...she couldnt understand, much less believe, all the feelings storming inside. The blush spreading across delicate porcelain skin, she found one hand laying on her cheek...right where his lips met it in a soft...gentlemanly kiss. A couple strands of hair came tumbling forward, hiding such a dark color, yet she brushed them over her shoulder and got to her feet. I should stay up...until Alilthea comes... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Aah! Alilthea cried out, pain biting into her neck...and by a monster, no less. Tears stung the corners of her eyes. No...No, I wont give this man the satisfaction...she told herself, gritting her teeth meanwhile. I will not give in to the venom...not now, and not ever! I will always love my sister...and I will continue to do so! No mans touch will matter more to me! Both hands curled into fists above her head, nails biting harshly into the tender skin of her palms. L-Let me go! Right this instant! Fear mixing with the pain, she twisted away from his hoarse words. I will not surrender to you. I will not give myself to you, not willingly. And I will never...ever...find pleasure with the likes of you. Even though his venom was flowing through every part of her body, Alilthea was finding it remarkably easy, resisting his demands...not to mention his touch. Maybe its because she finds his touch repulsive...or maybe its because under what conditions this man has injected the venom, but either way...its more than fine with her. The bottom half of her dress was ripped away, exposing her womanhood to his hungry gaze, and to his tongue, much to her disgust. Those golden eyes ablaze with anger, Alilthea twisted her hips away. St-Stop! I dont want any of this! When their lips met, his tongue forcing its way into her mouth...a new sensation flooded through her body. He pulled away, obviously figuring out what to do next, and she glared up at him with all the hatred she felt towards him. I will never submit! she hissed. It was right then that time came to a screeching halt. The candlelight stopped flickering, and the man continued to stare down at her, not moving an inch. What...What in the world is going on? Alilthea gazed around the room in a panic, not sure what to expect...or to do, really. Finally, her eyes landed on...well, a strange-looking creature, one clad in a purple robe...and having white hair and yellow, almost feline eyes. Listening to him, her suspicions arose. Darrion? God of Bonds and Connections? I dont care if he is this mans patron I will never consent to such...bloodshed! Her golden eyes ablaze yet again, she met his gaze evenly. No...I wont give my consent willingly...nor will I ever do so. I hope whatever bond comes from this does break on a moments notice I hope it destroys everything hes striving for I hope he falls in love with me, and when that bond breaks...it breaks his heart. Okay, mayhap thats a bit harsh and yet...Alilthea couldnt honestly say that she regrets those words. Why should she support this man? He has already killed hundreds...perhaps a thousand elves...and for what? Glory, fame...a bloodied crown? There was no true reason behind it, except for power. Her gaze intent on the celestial figure, she just shook her head...in shame or in disappointment, it was hard to tell. I will never follow a man...who kills easily I will only follow a man who kills...because that is the only option left to him...and that he has considered every other alternative I hope his quest fails...beyond a doubt. I may desire his touch, because of the venom...but I will not succumb to it...nor will I beg for anything from him. He is nothing...to me, but an obstacle to overcome Her lips curved into a wry smile.
