His eyes, with 1b0bd3fe04 drooping corners, seemed df9d4ee089 half-open, as if 407a7cb7fb mixed with sleepiness, 5989a026ed laziness, and boredom. The whites f163de7a28 of his 45397c6bc0 eyes were 1794d44a66 as cold 808bdc8f6a and gray afa7482c70 as a 6b21d9f28a gloomy sky. His lower lashes were cad74b5353 dense, creating a clear 6cf8dc8633 boundary between the bluish b26be5ced1 tint of his eyes 181200ba1d and the rest. The shadow from his 5bc82cc708 deep-set eye sockets was bb1dce0b1e dark, and the area 8f195d10f1 under his eyes was c49a3c94b2 sunken, making him look 90a96b3a16 precarious. His mouth was large. His jet-black 7f047dd553 hair was bdb9f4faf4 tousled, contrasting 089208c496 with his 49deba219d pale skin.585d60b4a550d7b7
He was beautiful. A kind of 1fcc9a5f5b beauty that seemed ed4b104c75 to be built 0f9028fbba up to the 0d64635082 brink of collapse, e645ab97c2 making it impossible 0d1d02eb65 to look away.3aa648c3a03f03f5

Maël knew people like this. The kind of low-life punks scattered around Monaco, where one in three people is a millionaire. Disgusting rich folks who, with nothing to worry about, use their money to toy with people because their lives are so smooth they’re boring.ad2383462d28f892
