Arnell rocked backwards as her skull hit his face.  The sound was one that was unmistakable as his nose crunched to the side, as his hands came up to grab his face.  Which of course freed her arms for a quick elbow strike.  With a yelp of pain he rolled off to the side of the desk, and then fell down to the floor near where his chair had been only moments ago.  He looked up at her shocked,  His voice was incredulous as he cried out, "What the fuck you crazy bitch!  You broke my fucking nose!"<br/><br/>Well, that's what he said, though the words came out a bit muffled because of the blood that was now flowing from his nose between his fingers.  He looked dazed and there was no fight left in the man that thought he was getting into a little foreplay.  "Why the fuck would you do that?"   He cried out as he scooted back along the floor a few feet, trying to get his bearings, but obviously having trouble with the pain.  "You said you wanted me to prove myself!"<br/><br/>It appeared that Lirdylene's chances of using this man to get to the dagger were slipping away quickly.  She might be able to rectify the situation, then again there was always another way, wasn't there?  Did she really have to go through this low ranking guardsman?  His erection which she'd felt pressing against her thigh was deflating quickly.
