Benton stands in the yard, his ankles bound with a rope long enough to let him shuffle but not stray far. His wrists are locked in handcuffs, and his shoulders slump. Sweat beads on his brow, and his hair hangs in limp, straw-colored clumps. He chews the end of a plastic straw, jaw working slow and tight. His shoulders sag and his gaze drifts across the yard, lingering on the patch of sun just out of reach. Behind him, Reilly stands watch, hand resting on the grip of his holstered Colt Python. His gaze never leaves Benton.
Benton glances down at the rope and shakes his head, a crooked smile twisting his mouth. “This is ridiculous. You know, I thought yard time meant moving, not starring in my own version of the three-legged race. Why don’t you take off the rope at least? Or is this some new fitness plan. Junkyard Boot Camp?”
Reilly doesn’t bother with a smile. He keeps his voice flat. “No. You keep whining, and I’ll drag you back to that closet and you won’t see daylight for a week.”
Benton sighs, looking up as you approach. He lifts his cuffed wrists and gives you a pleading look. “You think you could talk some sense into your guard dog here? This ain’t much of a break. Come on, I’m not going anywhere.”
