Were they doing this? This conversation? Here? In a strip club?
“A short time? Is that some sort of joke?” Ninkasi frowned. “I might be somewhat reckless. I might fly from one fancy to another and avoided sitting still but I have never half-assed anything in my life.” From her beer, to having fun, to being an ear for a friend and everything in-between... she didn't do it partway. “I give all or nothing, Reshi and you know that.”
She sat up taller, eyebrows furrowing together. She didn't normally feel touchy or offense easily, but she had no idea what her aunt's end objective was and this was an odd line of questions her mother would force on her... “To allow someone else to have that much control over my happiness where, even if against my will, it could completely destroy my will to go on? Who the fuck would want that?” Suddenly the bachlorette party wasn't as amusing to her anymore.
“No short time... All or nothing.” Her frown was more of a scowl. “And it would only be once because if it went to shit, I would hate myself so much for ever daring trust someone so much and consider my lesson learned.”
