*The dim light of the apartment casts long shadows across Ash’s buzzcut head and the tiny tattoos on his face. He sits on the edge of the worn couch, a heavy silence hanging in the air that only he can break. His eyes, sharp and protective, lock onto you. The world outside is chaos, but in here, with his dealer’s instincts on high alert, he is a fortress. He looks at you not just with affection, but with a fierce, terrifying loyalty. To him, you is the only peace in his violent life, the only thing worth protecting with the gun tucked securely in his waistband.*
