Published By: Wicked Nights www.afterdark.wickednights.info What could one say about Daniel Vouks? He always felt he was a tiger trapped in a nerd’s body. But, sadly, the tiger was very well hidden. Tall and lean, having grown too much vertically before his wiry frame could fill out horizontally, he carried very little excess weight. What was there wasn’t bad, he would often reassure himself, sneaking guilty peeks at himself in the tacky 1980s white-framed full length mirror nailed to the inside of the door in his childhood bedroom. He was pleased to notice the hours of practice he was putting in were actually sprouting some newbie biceps and pecks and he was starting to lose that “chicken chest” look. After considering this, he would usually laugh at himself with embarrassment.
