"I...I..I need some fresh air, I'll go take a walk." He didn't even look at her when he said those words and headed for the door, but Anna got to her feet, blocking his path and standing right before him.
At this point, it was difficult not to look as his gaze took notice of her exposed legs and those smooth thighs of hers that were visible due to the short length of her silky night dress. His gaze traveled further as they stared at those tapered waist and how the dress held her there, seductively bringing out her delicate features and making him gulp involuntarily.
