Lord Dehmerest reaches down and wraps his fingers round your throat, thightening them painfully and lifting you to your feet easily...
As you are left gasping for air he pushes you back into the corner and looks deep into your eyes...you are unable to tear your eyes away form him and you try to scream for aid from the Countess
To your horror you find that you are unable to speak...and it is he who breaks the tense silence as his angered voice rips thru your mind...
'Who do you think you are creature? Why do you run from me in my own home? What do you think you are doing here?'
You are relieved to find your voice has returned and half whimpering tell him that his Countess invited you into this place, told you that you could amuse yourself thru tha castle till it was time for you to leave, you try and explain that you had only gotten lost and was looking for the Countess so she could take you to somewhere familiar...
All the while as you speak Lord Dehmerest looks into your frightened eyes, down into your soul...you continue to babble in vain to try and find someway to make him let you go...
'Please,' you gasp
'PLease let me go, just tell me how to find my way out and I will go, I will leave immediately, just please don't hurt me.'
Your pleas seem to fall on deaf ears and for a moment he says nothing...then a terrible grin spreads across his face...
'No little one, I do not think that is what will happen, I do not think you are going to leave just yet.'
You begin to stammer...
'But I want to go, I want to leave, I do not want to intrude on you...'
His fingers tighten further round your throat, cutting off your words abruptly and he sneers...
'What you want is irrelevat creature...it is what I want that will decide your fate...you are in my world now and you will behave as I see fit, you will be found by me when I wish to play games, and you will not leave until I say you may.
Looking at you with obvious disgust he suddenly loosens his grip on your throat and you drop to the floor...
He turns and strides out of the room, leaving you wondering what sort of monster the Countess loves and if she even realises this side of him...
You stand to leave the room...
Or do you wish to leave the game...?
