A gigantic snake was wrapping around her, embracing her with its strong limbless body
A gigantic snake was wrapping around her, embracing her with its strong limbless body. Antoinette Johnson responded to her pet snake’s hunger for affection with a motherly tenderness, and to my entertainment with a hint of friendly irritation. Just as if an old friend of hers wouldn’t shut up about this new guy she met. “Her name is Schoen. It means beautiful in German,” she smiles.
Thanks for being a member.
