Elyse wondered if he ever had watched Anna perform. If flexibility and sexy moves was his thing then he was in for a treat with her. She felt his hand on her kne, a subtle cue to calm down. Asking about Anna, Elyse assumed that is who he had texted, but before she could answer, Nox confirmed that it was done.
It was done. The thought hit her hard. Elyse’s breathing hitched and the nervous energy morphed into something else. Tears began to fall, and Elyse’s hand sought out Hayden’s as she stared straight ahead. She pulled the earpiece out and dropped it on the table. She didn’t need to hear more, even though she knew Nox wouldn’t report anymore.
She wiped her eyes and didn’t speak, unsure if the emotional outbreak was sadness for her father’s death or relief that the situation was over. She never wanted any of this. She hadn’t deserved any of it. It never should have come to this. Elyse came out of trance and was back with Hayden. She looked at him and just said two words. ”Let’s go.”
