Carbon Eyes

Her eyes were black as carbon, without any other color in them. Nothing else seemed to be in those eyes, really. After one man's experience with her, the black eyed girl who called herself Clarissa, he finds himself confused retelling what has happened to a stranger who claims she can help.

Inspired by Elisabetta Sirani's painting, Porcia Wounding her Thigh.
