Emma stood with Mari looking at Liddy, wondering if she was in any trouble after explaining what happened at the jail. “At least you waited until after the client was serviced before doing your own thing.” Liddy fired a quick glance at Hannah. “Also, my compliments on your manipulative skills.” “Thanks. I just figured since she got busted for doing our job, she might want to do it on the ship legally.” “Do you?” Liddy asked Emma. “Well… I mean, yes. I did it because I needed to, but I liked it well enough. But I don't think you would be willing to actually hire me.” Emma was almost trembling as she spoke. “Why not?” Emma glanced at the door making sure she had an escape route. Then pulled back the braids in her hair and revealed her long, sharp-pointed ears. Liddy gasped. “You’re an elf?!” Her hands covered her mouth.

So very much. I can keep you with male clients only, but no promises about your fellow harlots.” “I… well, thank you. I accept.” Emma bowed slightly. “Well, then.” Liddy composed herself. “Next bit of business is that we are taking some rest. A lot of work needs to get done on the ship and we can't be entertaining clients while they work. I'm having one of the working rooms converted into a marble bathhouse. The last of the repairs to the hull and walls are getting done. Also, the laundry and kitchen are getting installed under the bridge. With all of us working, we should be done a lot faster. As much as I could keep us here with clients, I want our reputation to spread, and that means a new port of call.” Unlike the last round of repairs, there was no need for gags to keep mouldy wood dust out of your lungs. Liddy replaced almost all the wall panelling with fine hardwood and the same for the floors. The hull was stained primarily a pale brown with the structural supports a deep chestnut. A forward deck lounge was built so that guests could be entertained in the open air. The large, metal laundry bucket was gone, and in its place was a pair of ...
