    Summary

    “I will not stop loving you because of violence or guilt. You are my husband, and I swear by it.”
    “I will never be the same as I was when you swore that to me.”
    “Neither will I.” She stopped to remove her robes without ceremony, and Odysseus was struck, for the first time in twenty years, with the sight of her naked body, a sight he had so frequently dreamed of. She gestured to the lines across her stomach and thighs from carrying Telemachus, held the softness of her hips where wrinkles were slowly forming. “We are no longer twenty, Odysseus, and I didn’t marry you to stay twenty forever.”

    Odysseus and Penelope catch up on lost time after twenty years apart.
