Catherine (Echoes Of Ossiria #1) - Plot & Excerpts
She found William outside. “Four laps around the house is a mile. I want you to do two miles,” he said. She grimaced, but started jogging. “And I better not catch you walking any of it!” At the end of eight laps, he stopped her and stared, then ordered her to do another four. She stopped after five miles, not from muscle fatigue, but from wheezing. “Are you on medication?” She shook her head “no”, unable to speak, yet. England was a lot colder than California and she wasn’t used to this much exercise. “Sit, before you fall down, for chrissakes!” He tossed her a bottle of water. “Go inside and shower. Supper is in thirty minutes.” Catherine nodded and stumbled inside. She barely made it to the third floor. Her legs felt like lead. Showering actually meant standing in the old fashioned claw-foot tub and using a spray nozzle to hose off, so she took a bath, instead. And fell asleep. Her eyes opened when she had five minutes to be down in the dining room. “Shit!”
