Yes, but no

The dancer's smug smiles froze as Thorren delivered his ultimatum, ”What?” asked Lira.

”Well, I would love to have you dancing here every night. On stage and in our private parlor for the more affluent guests upstairs. You ladies would make a lot of money. Oh, so much money.”

The dwarf unabashedly let his eyes wander up and down the two women, lingering on their exorbitant breasts. His facial expression radiated both lust and that of a gold miner who's just struck a rich lode.

”And all you have to do is to warm my bed tonight. I assure you, it is quite big and comfortable. There is no better bed in this house.”

Lira grimaced, ”How dare you?” She leaned down and poked her finger in his chest. ”We are dancers, not whores!”

”Yeah, that's right!” Zayeh interposed.

The dwarf grinned. ”Oh, of course, ladies! The Norther Arms is a most respectable place”, he said with a wink. ”I am merely offering you its full and warmest hospitality.”

After a moment's pause, Lira spoke again. ”Very well, dwarf, show us to your bed then because that's where we'll be spending our nights here.”

”Yeah, that's ri... uhm, we will?” Zayeh looked at Lira with a bewildered facial expression.

”Excellent!” The dwarf happily rubbed his hands together, ”Then it's settled. Ladies, let me sho...”

Lira interrupted him, ”But you will not be in it. We'll be having it for ourselves.”

”Oh no, that is not how this deal works!” Thorren protested, but Lira just interrupted him again, poking his chest once more.

”You didn't say anything about you having to be in it. And besides, you can't afford not to have had us dancing here. That crowd will tear this place apart if we aren't here tomorrow, and you bloody know it.”

Thorren let out a resigned sigh and threw his hands out, ”Fine, have it your way then... you bitches,”

Zayeh smirked, ”Yeah that's right. Bitches, not whores.”

The dwarf was right – his bed was fantastic. Lira and Zayeh changed into their flimsy nightgowns, and soon they were tucked in comfortably between the sheets of a large and luxurious four-poster bed in Thorren's spacious quarters.

”Ahh, just what I needed after all those dreadful weeks of mud and lumpy straw mattresses,” Lira said with pleasure as she stretched out her full-bosomed body next to Zayeh.

Zayeh snuggled up to her fair-skinned friend and wrapped an arm around her stomach, caressing it through the sheer fabric, ”Mm, I feel a little sorry for Thorren though. He's cute in a way”, she said.

Lira scoffed, ”That corrupt little bastard? Sometimes you make me wonder.” She laughed and rolled over facing Zayeh and gave her a kiss. ”I just wanted you all to myself tonight. And a dwarf? That's just... wrong.”

”Oh, why is that? We don't have dwarves where I come from.”

”Well, first and foremost they are not human. I just think that we should stick to our kind. At least in bed. And in case you didn't notice, they are tiny!”

Zayeh inclined her head and grinned, ”But what about that funny little fellow in that lotus house in Port Vosk then? Remember? You let him come all over your tits if I'm not mistaken.”

”That was a human. A midget”, Lira said and blushed, ”And I had lost a bet to him. I later found out that he had tricked me and cheated. And I had way to much lotus that night. And please don't bring that up again, ever.”

Zayeh let out a delighted giggle. She loved to tease her lover like this. She started running her hands over Lira's body, caressing her enticingly full breasts, ”I can't blame him. I would have cheated too”, she purred.

Lira parted her lips, moaned and pressed her body against Zayeh's.

”So what about a goblin?” Zayeh asked.

”Mmh, just shut up and kiss me.”
