Mally glanced back. Hogg was dangling a beautiful girl named Gaia in his lap. He'd be busy for a while.
"All right," she followed Mortimer upstairs. When they were in her room, she locked the door and turned to him. "What is it?"

Mortimer pressed himself to her, his mouth against hers. His breath smelled of wine, and his face was flushed. His hair a tangled mess. He placed one hand on her shoulder and the other on her cheek.

Taken by surprise, Mally allowed him to kiss her for a few moments, before pushing him off. "Mortimer, are you drunk?" Her eyes were questioning. "What is this for? You have taken your troubles too hard. Don't blame yourself for everything."

"I take nothing too hard, love. Also, I have sobered up some. I miss the warmth of flesh beneath me. I want to have that back. It had been so long. I miss the pleasures life has denied me because of my baseborn status. I wish to feel as a lord feels."
He leaned back and dropped into the chair. "I do not know what I want. An explanation perhaps for this jumble of emotions inside of myself?"

"You want me," Mally said. Her voice was flat and without expression. "I'm the most expensive whore in this house of whores. For a price, you can get me in bed. But no price, Mortimer, will get you...more." Life had taught her not to mince words. Mortimer had to learn. "I told you before, I'm a hardened whore with no feelings. I will always help you, aye - a better and more faithful business partner you will not find. And for a price, you will not find a better whore than me either. But nothing more. I am sorry, Mortimer. I can only be your friend."

Mortimer looked up. "I do not want anything more than your friendship. I love you as a friend, but nothing more. That kiss was a forced act upon myself. I do not wish to marry you or make you pregnant, Mally."
He sighed. "I do not know what I want, but I know I want nothing more than your friendship. I miss warm flesh, and the pleasure of it, but I don't wish that to be a mistaken tool for romantic feelings. I am sorry to make you confused as so."
Trying to smile, he stood and put a hand to her cheek. "I would want you in my bed, but as my friend. I do not wish for romance between us Mally, know this. But a man has needs, that is all I can say as of now. My feelings are too confused as it is. Guilt. It plagues me. Perhaps that is why I seek my comfort of flesh, who really knows?" He kissed her cheek and patted her face.

"Confused, was I?" Mally allowed herself to smile. "Did I misunderstand that proposal for marriage last night?" She winked, and then grew serious. "Yes, I'll bed you if you like. The gods know you need a woman fucking you. But you must pay me, and as I said, I am the most expensive in the house. And I will not sleep with you for free, just for friendship's sake. Too many dangerous misunderstandings can arise." She smiled at him. The green samite gown slipped a little, baring a smooth white shoulder.

"Last night I proposed marriage only so that you would take care of me. The futility of it all. It was sarcasm." He watched her. "I spend money easily, but not too easily. I will not take you." He moved away from her. "Give me another girl if you wish, but I will not take you. Not as a whore."

Mally sighed and shook her head. "Men," she said. "You're all either uptight assholes or fools. You seem to be a good man, Mortimer. Don't get involved with girls like me. I'll send you Dacey - I think she rather likes you." She winked at him, as if they were having a most normal conversation.
"And one more thing," she said, before she left. "While I will still own this place, I won't be living here anymore. I'll explain it to you more fully later, but I'm moving out. You can always send me a message when you want to meet though - I won't be very far." She gave him a last, mysterious smile, and left.
A few moments later, freckled, bright-eyed Dacey came up and smiled shyly. She began unbuttoning her bodice, gazing at him.

Her maids and servant boy carried her things, and Mally came to Lord Hogg in a beautiful ermine-lined cloak. "My lord, I'm ready."

Putting his pants back on Hogg nodded gravely, "Follow me then."

Smothering a smile, Mally and her attendants left with Lord Hogg.
