Chapter 231 – First Training Session [1]
Fifteen minutes before 5 a.m., Cassius found himself wide awake, staring at the ceiling of his room in a silent, listless daze.
He was tired.
He would have loved to stay in bed a few more minutes. Just a few more. But he knew those few minutes would turn into an hour, giving his master enough reason to make his life hell.
Now, that was something Cassius would rather avoid.
So with the consequences in mind, he pushed himself up and dragged his feet toward the bathroom.
He was done in ten minutes or so, now refreshed, his mind wide awake after a ruthless cold shower. Wearing his black and purple training suit, Cassius took the small necklace Isolde had gifted him the night before.
