Chapter8.
Aramys, poised to do battle with the human, found herself completely at a loss. A jolt like an electric current passed through her, momentarily paralyzing her. The feeling of his body against hers, his mouth on hers, demanding, furious, seemed to awaken a need of her own that she hadn''t realized existed. Something within her answered his demand, and dropping the sword she raised her hands to his hair, sinking her fingers through its dark waves and pulling his face closer, kissing him hungrily in turn. Her desire seemed to feed his. In one swift and graceful motion, the man swept her completely off her feet and lowered her onto the floor.
Entreri had never known such urgency. He lay over the girl, puling both of their clothing away. There was a lot of it, and in his haste to be rid of it he felt the bite of steel. Apparently he happhappened upon some weapon she kept concealed on her person. As he cursed in surprised pain, Aramys caught his injured finger and pressed it to her lips, her tongue sliding over the tip and igniting his lust all over again. Then somehow there was nothing more to separate them, and the feeling of her warm flesh against his was unbearably sweet. Her hands were on him as well, her mouth, nearly driving him mad. He kissed her neck, her shoulder, his strong hand closing over one breast, and then his lips found that as well. When he heard the girls'' soft moan of pleasure, he lifted his face to look into her eyes briefly. They burned at him through the darkness.
Aramys didn’t know how she had gotten to the floor, how her clothing had come off, only that she needed this person to be closer to her, as close as he could be. Every nerve ending felt as though it was alight, and time lost meaning. She was all sensation; she felt his touch, the rasp of htubbtubble on her skin as his lips explored her, the hardness of his muscular body as it pressed down on her. Then she felt his hands on her thighs, urging them apart, and the spell broke.
Aramys felt her desire fall away, to be replaced by sheerest panic as she realized what would come next. Unbearable memories from her childhood flooded back on her, threatening to drown the young woman. "No!" she gasped, trying to twist away from the man. Her hands went to his face, clawiim, im, but all her skill and control seemed to have deserted her. Her reaction was one of purest terror. Entreri was stunned by her attack. He caught her clawing hands, holding them and confining them above her head. Furious, he glared into her purple eyes, demanding an explanation. What he saw on her young face froze his anger in its tracks. In a blinding flash of insight, he understood.
Jarlaxle''s protectiveness and his haunted expression when speaking of her past made sense to him now, and Entreri felt a sudden rush of outrage on her behalf. He knew then beyond doubt that Aramys had experienced the same horrors he had as a child, had experienced the same pain and humiliation, the same loss of control. Though the memories rarely surfaced in his conscious mind, they had influenced his every waking action and haunted his troubled sleep. The fury that filled him now was towards the gods, or whatever other powers there were that he didn’t believe in, that they allowed such things to happen and go unpunished. The man controlled himself quickly, pushing the unwelcome emotions back into the small, dark place where he stored them. Cursing softly to himself, he rolled away from Aramys.
The young woman sat up, drawing her knees up to her chin. Her long hair had come loose and fell around her, shadowing her face, sliding over her bare skin. Entreri could see her eyes, bright with unshed tears as she fought to regain her self-control. He felt a sudden urge to put his arms around her, to comfort her somehow, but knew she could only see it as a threat. The inclination was unsettling to him anyway: Artemis Entreri did not hug people. Slowly, he reached for his clothing, trying his best to appear unthreatening. He got dressed silently, and then stood and offered Aramys her own clothing. She looked up at him slowly as though awakened from a bad dream, but took the cloths. Entreri turned away as she began to dress.
There was no more argument as to how they would leave. Aramys used her innate powers to levitate up to the door, and threw Entreri the rope as promised. The heat-glow of Narbondel could now be seen in the distance: it was dawn in the underdark city. Not speaking, the two made their silent way back towards Bregan D''earth, their purpose for coming to Menzoberanzan left unaccomplished. They both kept their masks up, hiding more from each other now than from anything else.
