Even though he had seen her pictures and had an idea of her physical condition, seeing her like this was shocking to him. To him she was like the sun, proud, bright and radiant. Even now he could remember the shine in her blue-green eyes from when he had first met her. It was why he had even failed to stop her when she had been undressing him.
