The short, curvy one dripped and dangled an astonishing assortment of gaudy jewelry. The clothing she wore stretched the definition of the word. Shurq suspected it had taken half the night to squeeze into the studded leggings, and the upper garment seemed to consist of little more than a mass of thin straps that turned her upper body into a symmetrical display of dimples and pouts.
