At least the physical pain is over, Selene says as I'm groaning on my bed, limper than an overcooked noodle.
"It isn't over. I'm still dying."
You'll be fine. This is why you should have kept up with your exercise. Even a few days off and you're already back to being out

Selene snorts, her furry head shaking in amusement. Don't come crying to me when your butt goes numb.
Deliberately tamping down on the urge to stick my tongue out at her like a child, I turn my attention to the magical tome in my lap.
The ornate silver clasp is cool to touch, almost unnaturally so, and I suppress a shiver.
I carefully open the book. Once again, I'm met with a sea
