Rolan follows the woman out of the Ball Room to a hall. Staying far behind, as not to be seen, he follows her and her maid servant to a set of apartments. The maid servant leaves and he steps into the room and latches the door. "Don't pack too much; I will not carry it for you!"
Aubrianna spins quickly towards the voice. She stares at the man for a moment, "Someone with more surprises I presume?" She gave him a harsh look as she crossed her arms over her chest.
He just knew this was going to be difficult. She just stood there with all her "Noble Woman" arrogance. "Surprises? The only thing that would surprise me would be if you just came along without question." He moved closer to her. "But your probably not gunna do that now are you?"
She took a step back uncrossing her arms as he came closer. "Absolutely not!" She gave him an absurd look. "Who are you?" She slipped her hand behind her back, sliding the small dagger in the side of her bodice into her hand. "I will scream for the guards if you come any closer."
"I don?t think you want to do that since the guards will probably want to kill you as bad as they would want to kill me. I am here to help you, and I am not leaving without you. Now come along," he stepped even closer. "Make a noise and we are both dead!" He reaches to take her by the arm.
After hearing all the talk of danger and cutting out tongues she is weary about not believing him. She needed to find out why her life had suddenly become such a risk to others. She actually thought of going with him for a moment, but when he reached for her she felt more trapped than when Shafer had proposed. She pulled the knife from behind her back and swiped at him with it. Not actually aiming, not actually meaning to harm him, but to scare him away.
Rolan jumped back a pace. "Woman have you gone mad, I said I was here to help. Now put that thing away before ?My Lady? hurts herself!" He was going to have to talk with Davram about this when they got back.
"You mock me?" She glared holding the dagger pointed towards him. "Who do you think you are to waltz in here and start demanding things of me?" She took a step towards him. Yes, she felt brave; after all...she 'was' the one with the weapon.
"Oh no 'My Lady' I would never mock you,? a wry grin broke on his face despite trying to hide it. "Please let me take that from you and we can be on our way. The guards will be here soon and I really would not like to be the one to greet them."
