The man on the viewer's left has black hair cut short on the sides and longer on top. He has day-old facial hair. The other man has chestnut brown short hair with a bit of a curl, and barely any facial hair. Both men have their eyes closed.

I’ve never been turned on by a death threat, but Bonnie’s promise to gut me in my sleep still rattles around my head four hours later, and the low throb still beats its tiny drum, making me clench my thighs
