Always True To Her (Emerson Book 2) - Plot & Excerpts
They’d set off from the inn at dawn, after Mrs. Simmons tried to extract an early morning departure fee from them. They’d decided to keep Anna in her night clothes, since they were less constricting than her gown. The spots had indeed spread all over her body and while she tried not to scratch, it was difficult for her. Which meant it was difficult for James and Irene to see her in such distress. She was still feverish, though James hoped it would break now that the spots were out. James held her on the journey, hoping he would impart some comfort to her. He and Irene spoke little, hoping the silence would help Anna sleep. It was almost dusk when the carriage finally began the journey up the Ridgeway drive, diverting to the dower house. Anna’s breathing was labored and she was burning up with fever. She now lay heavily upon her father. Finally, they pulled up to the house. They were not yet at a standstill when Irene opened the door and jumped out, no doubt surprising his family, who’d come outside to greet them.
