Their eyes met and it sent a shock right through her. She was as beautiful as he had remembered even with 10 years of life painted onto her expression. She towered over him- a statuesque beauty.

He was just as fat and disheveled as she’d expected but she couldn’t help but see him as the strapping young buck he once was.
