Five minutes of cool silence and tersely-delivered instructions on where to turn and which puddles to avoid later, they pulled up in front of a small two-story bungalow with an impeccably maintained front yard. Seriously, the man had to spend all his free time on the thing because it looked like something out of a magazine.
"Here." He handed her a set of keys with one key in particular pinched between his thumb and forefinger. "This key opens the front door. You go, get the door open, and then I'll come right after with the puppy."
Sadie stared at the keys for a moment.
"I can't hold the puppy and open the door at the same time. Do you think you can do this?"
She glared at him. "Yes. And the puppy's name is Hunter, by the way."
"Good to know. Now, can we get inside where it's warm?"
Sadie gave him one last glare and ran for the front door, slamming her car door behind her. She pretended it was because of the onslaught of the rain, but she knew it was because her purported rescuer annoyed the hell out of her and she wanted him to know it.
She was competent. She could take care of herself. She didn't need some man talking to her like she was a two-year-old.
It took her a second to work the key in the lock, but then it clicked and she pushed open the door and stepped into a blessedly warm and cozy living room.
It wasn't what she'd expected. It was comforting. A large leather sofa dominated one wall, two large blankets thrown over the back. Across from the sofa was a large fireplace, three logs set on the grill waiting to be lit. Not that they were needed, the room was toasty warm and smelled slightly of cinnamon, cedar, and pine.
She sighed, savoring the heat against her cold cheeks.
"Move it." The man shoved past her with Hunter cradled in his arms. He went straight to the rug in front of the fireplace as she closed the door.
He set Hunter on a large rug spread in front of the fireplace and deftly lit the fire, not a single movement wasted.
She shivered as she stood in the entryway, dripping water onto his welcome mat.
"Get changed and dried off. I'll take care of Hunter." He didn't even turn to look at her, his entire attention focused on her puppy.
What a charmer. No doubt he lived alone.
Before she could ask what she was supposed to wear, he sighed and pointed down the hallway. "Bathroom on the left, towels in the cupboard. Room on the right should have some sweats that you can put on. I suggest you take a nice hot shower to warm up."
When she hesitated, he shook his head. "Bathroom door locks."
He stripped out of his rain pants and jacket and pushed past her to hang them on a hook by the door. She tried not to stare at his incredibly muscular arms and chest, now clearly visible under the t-shirt he wore.
