Tournament of conspiracy

Most of this chapter is writed by unisoll_44, I only add couples words.

Since adventure in the dwarfs tomb pass off few weaks, when party return and enjoy their reward for done task. They didn't talk too much about what happen, maybe because everyone have something what wish to not remember. But the team wasn't be a team, if they didn't meet themself in old good tavern.

“What do you mean you are going to bed?” Ariane said, as Lex and Mira rose from their table in the tavern, “It’s far too early to sleep.”

“Oh, we’re not going to slee—agh!” Lex was interrupted by Mira’s jab in his ribs, with a blush and stern look on the warrior’s face.

“W-We need to get some rest,” Mira said, still glaring at Lex, “We’ll train early tomorrow morning.”

“Fuah~,” Ariane sighed and pouted, “Don’t play coy now … the secret of you two being together has been out a long time now. You don’t need to hide it.”

“I’m not like you, flaunting my sexuality in everybody’s faces, Ariane,” Mira huffed, crossing her arms in front of her chest.

“I can’t help that nature blessed me with these,” Ariane laughed, sticking her big bust out a bit and smirked, “Oh, you meant how I act. Yeah, you are far too prude, my dear.”

Khala chirped up, “Well, I’ve said it countless times, buuut~ nobody listens to me: Ariane needs to tone it down and Mira needs to get the stick out of her cute bum.”

“C-Cute bum? Where did that come from? You got a girlfriend, remember?” Mira blushed.

“Soooo~? I can still appreciate a good looking behind without becoming unfaithful,” Khala giggled.

Lex laughed, “We could banter all night, but we really should be going now.”

“Oohoo~, someone’s eager. Go then,” Ariane laughed and then smirked at Lex and Mira, “Rock her world, Lex. I want her to sleep from exhaustion tonight.”

“Enough,” Mira blushed and grabbed Lex’s arm, “Good night, you two. Don’t stay up too late.” The two lovers then left their friends after exchanging good nights.

Ariane leaned back and sighed, after they left, “Aw~, I wish it was me going up there to have some fun.”

“Why don’t you join them then?” Khala smiled.

“Oh, I would love to, but it would be too awkward,” Ariane shook her head, “Remember our time with Giana? Yeah, that didn’t work out. Besides, Mira still thinks I want to snatch him away from her, even though, I have done nothing more than lightly tease him for ages.”

Khala nodded, “Yeah, probably better that way. Threesomes are nice but things can get complicated.”

“I don’t know what it is, every time I have a threesome I don’t get invited for a second one,” Ariane sighed.

“Probably because every woman would see you as a threat to them, just look at you,” Khala smiled and pointed to the elf’s cleavage.

Ariane leaned forward and giggled, “Oh~, you think Giana thought I’d seduce you away from her? What got you so flirty today? First Mira, now me.”

“Oooh~, nothing much,” Khala feigned innocence, “Just a little date tomorrow morning with said girl.”

Ariane laid her head in her hands, “Ugh~, why is everyone but me in a happy relationship?”

Khala laughed and looked around the tavern, “I don’t know about everyone. Plenty of people in here in the same boat as you, I imagine.”

The sorceress smiled through her fingers, “Duh, but they probably don’t have three friends flaunting their happy couple status in their faces.”

“Hey, I’m not flaunting anything. You asked why I was in such a good mood,” Khala said, “Speaking of which, I hate to leave you here, but I have to go get some sleep. Early day tomorrow.”

“Yes, to meet your girlfriend in the morning, I get it,” Ariane giggled, “Oh well, don’t worry about me. Have a good night and give Giana my best wishes.”

“I will, thanks, Ariane. Nighty-night,” Khala said and hugged her elf-friend, leaving the sorceress alone at their table.
