Rather
than speak, she nodded and walked toward the door. On cue, he pulled it open
and allowed her to exit first. Not that he minded in the least. With her in
front of him, he could let his eyes wander and appreciate her form without her
any the wiser. And he definitely liked what he saw. She was an average height, but
she had killer legs, perfectly shaped and toned. He suspected she exercised on
a regular basis. Her waist was tiny and although she had her back to him now,
he already had a mental picture of her breasts. Judging by the way her dress
fit, they were lush and full but not ridiculously large.
When
they reached the elevator, he pushed the button. “Please dress casually
tomorrow. Whatever you normally wear on the weekend,” he said as a way to break
the silence. “I certainly won’t be wearing a tie.”
Addie
laughed, a sweet lyrical sound. “Then I might still be in my pj’s when you pick
me up.”
The
image of the type of sleepwear worn by the women he usually spent time with
popped up. While he had no doubt Addie would look fantastic in any of those
outfits, he doubted those were the type of pj’s she wore. “Whatever works for
you,” he answered as the elevator door opened and they stepped inside.
“So
where in Newport is your home? Is it on Bellevue Avenue?”
Slowly
the elevator began its descent and he leaned up against the glass wall. “No.
It’s on Ocean Avenue. It was built—” The loud crack of lightning echoed through
the elevator, cutting off Trent’s sentence just before the lights blinked and
then went out.
“Please
tell me we’re not stuck.” Addison’s voice trembled from the other side of the glass
elevator.
