Lust and Greed

Lust and Greed

After Lust watched her client leave her hotel room she picked up her communicator off of the dresser and called Greed her pimp who was also her husband.

"Hello Greed where are you?" asked Lust as she sat on the bed.

"I just arrived at the Blue Flame Hotel.  I'll be at your room soon" answered Greed.

"Ok Greed I'll see you when you get here" said Lust.

Lust got dressed and waited on Greed.  Within ten minutes there was a knock on Lust's hotel room door.  Lust opened the door and let Greed in.

"Where's my money? asked Greed as soon as he entered the room.

"Greed you act like you don't trust me.  I'm your wife and the who're who you pimp but we are still husband and wife.  You promised to lay riches at my feet and put power in my hands.  Remember that" said Lust.

"Trust you? I do but not a hundred percent" said Greed.
