Reading: "Dead Cities of the Stars" from Rituals of the Antithetical (A.Glass 2023)

 "Dalens eyes the back of man’s head buried into the pillow, his buttocks rising and falling. He then looks at Chloe’s face, which is in a state of bliss, as both their movements become even more frantic, her legs opened wide as he continues to pump. Meeting his thrusts, she angles her pelvis upward, so that she is merged with his, he continues to watch the man, who is not Chloe’s husband hold each other in a tight embrace. The bed taps louder against the bedroom wall, as the man leans himself up with both arms, thrusting in a persistent manner while Chloe clutches him by his shoulders, her head turned to the right, eyes shut and her mouth slightly open. With each thrust, she grinds up against him, her breathing becoming more labored. The man lets out a loud grunt and in one final movement, he pushes himself deeply into Chloe, while she continues to hold him tightly, she cries out in pleasure.
Dalens watches them both, while they maintain their naked embrace, yet their frantic movements have ceased. He then views the man slowly withdraw and stand, moving out of view. As Chloe sits up at the edge of the bed, saying something to the man, to which Dalens is unable to decipher."
