"Lord Isolde!" he snarled, stepping into their path so the man was forced to stop dancing, or run Ayleth bodily into Etan. He did, but he scowled, and his hand on her ass tightened. Ayleth squeaked and pulled from his grip, turning to face Etan as if she'd just noticed him and didn't understand what was happening.
"Lord Summit!" she said, her voice too high. "What is the matter, sir?"
But Etan glared at Isolde. "I'm cutting in," he said.
"Oh look, the Cannibal has come to take a plaything," Isolde droned.
