“I beg your pardon,” she said with mock shock. “I am the very picture of a model goldrider. Very feminine and not at all indecorous.” She smirked at his teasing. “I only water my wine around important guests,” Helyna teased back. “Besides, would you really prefer a weak drink this evening? I know I wouldn’t.” She didn’t seem inclined to throw anything, or otherwise attack, despite his ribbing.
His question was unexpected and she looked up from her glass. “I do, but…” her face twisted slightly as she glanced at the door. “Well, I converted it to a work room. There’s a cot Von-” she quickly corrected herself, “I use from time to time, but I swear it will be warmer and more comfortable in the bed. We’re far enough out from the Flight, nothing else will happen tonight.” She could feel Iliyith’s comfort and satisfaction, but without the overwhelming urges from earlier.
She pulled her shawl closer around herself, then finished her glass. “Though I’ll leave it up to you. I’m happy to set it up with a few spare blankets.” She stood up and poured another small glass of wine. “But your virtue is safe with me; I’m afraid you like men a lot more than I do.” Helyna smirked slightly and went to put away her work from earlier, letting him process that.
