I’d managed to climb out of bed and throw on my jeans and tank top before Ms. Doyle knocked on the door. It swung open without preamble and she staggered in under a jumble of dresses.
“Whoa,” I mumbled before diving in to relieve her of half the pile. “You certainly outdid yourself.”
“I only did as Mr. Rune requested,” she panted.
She watched as I laid the dresses out one-by-one on the guest bed. At first appearance, they all looked similar: long, black, with a high leg slit, similar to what I’d worn at the gala. But upon closer inspection, I started to notice minute differences, like which one had buttons versus a zipper, or which had boning in the corset versus a laced up back.
One, however, stood out above the rest. I grasped the one-shoulder dress and draped it against my length, admiring my reflection in the mirror.
“Notice it’s see-through, Ms. Winter.”
“Only a section.” Which happened to be the entire left side of the dress. Rather than a slit, the dress had a sheath of sheer material from toe to shoulder. It would emphasize the whole length of my leg and side of my waist. I loved it. Just the right amount of sexy.
“If you choose that one, underwear may not be an option,” Ms. Doyle continued.
I nibbled the inside of my lip. “Might be worth it.”
Her appreciative gaze settled on the supple material. “It is a beautiful dress.”
I flashed a grin at her and nodded. “Do you think Ethen will like it?”
She studied my length, an appraising glint to her eyes. “Who wouldn’t, my dear?”
Who wouldn’t, indeed. I hung it up on the door, then started for the bathroom. Once inside, I paused and glanced back at the housekeeper. “You wouldn’t happen to keep makeup, would you?”
She pointed to a small bag resting atop the bureau. “You should find everything you need in there.”
“You’re the best, Ms. Doyle.”
A stunned look crossed her face. Then she threw me a bright grin. “Thank you. Now, off with you. It took much longer than expected to pick a dress.”
With the selection provided, was it any wonder?
