Lillian remained silent for a minute, looking at the ground and thinking about the offer. Finally she looked at the woman lying on the bed. “I don’t know, Ivy. Trying to steal from the High Lord has led to the death of many thieves. Your offer is tempting, but it’s not worth losing my life…”
“You’re not satisfied with my offer, is that it, Lillian? Very well then – name your price. As long as it is within my power I’ll give you whatever you ask for.” Declared Ivy. “You want more money? Or perhaps some valuable gemstones? I’ll give them to you. Or maybe you desire an item in my possession? Over the years I have acquired several valuable objects and artifacts that would probably be of interest for you. Just tell me which ones you want. Or is it sex you want? Here we can satisfy any and all sexual desires you may have, no matter how perverse – you know that since you worked here. Since you left I have hired several new employees that you can enjoy, and some of them will do anything you ask for. Or perhaps you want everything I just listed? Just name your price, Lillian – I’m sure we can reach an agreement…”
“Well, since you put it that way…” |
