NS record outside of our name space

[King, Harold Clyde (Hal)]

I tried adding the NS records but it looked like the entire example.com
was now subject to the NS of wordpress.com. I just want the sub domain to
get it's DNS from the wordpress.com NS servers. Not to give away my  whole
example.com domain.
