    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.

    Summary

    Deep breaths, my love…

    Penelope’s voice sounded far away, so far away. There was a hand on his shoulder, was it hers? Did he dare hope it was hers? Or was it someone else?

    He was not taking deep breaths at all. Or maybe he was. But if he was taking deep breaths, it did not feel like he was. Deep breaths were refreshing and slow. But Odysseus was getting about as much air as he had, being drowned by Poseidon on the shores of his home.

    Summary

    To be queen without a king around was to wear two crowns at once. And when adding on top of that the weight of raising a son and fending off 108 men, there can be a lot of wear.
    And yet, Penelope hadn’t expected to get so sick because of it.
