The Request (The Request Trilogy #1) - Plot & Excerpts
A large truck passes us as we reach her front porch, tires splashing through dirty water. I grab Everly and whisk her out the way, only to get soaked in the process. “Thank you, but your poor suit.” She swipes at the water on my shoulders. With water dripping from my head and onto my face, I let go of her and smile, running my hand through my hair. I can feel the grime on my scalp. “Good thing I brought a change of clothes.” “You did? Oh, the class.” Everly digs her keys out of her purse. “Why don’t you take a shower while I wash your clothes?” “It’s not necessary.” She shakes her head. “It’s the least I can do for you being such a gentleman and taking one for the team.” She fingers my shirt, and I tense up. “Then we can drink vodka and you’ll finally relax around me.” “I am relaxed.” I say, following her to the front door. Everly snorts as she unlocks and opens it. There’s a light on inside. Automatically, I take a cursory glance around to inspect the place.
