Chapter 53

“Yes, of course I want to fuck you, but it’s of my own free will.”

“Exactly. Lord knows I’d love to jump your bones right now also, Matt, but a moment ago I felt as if I had no choice.”

“So not only are your artistic endeavors being controlled by this unknown presence, but our cocks are also?”

“That’s my guess, or our sex drives, anyway. And this ‘force’ is emanating from that room. Or at least it seems to be the strongest in there. Does that make any sense?”

“More than you know, although I would have never believed the theory before yesterday.”

“But I wonder, could it be the paintings also?”

“My vote would be on the room itself. Unlike yesterday, Sky, I didn’t even glance at the artwork this morning. All I could ‘see’ was you.”

“Well, what I’m wondering is, whether just the presence of the paintings is either causing the phenomena, or adding to whatever force is concentrating in that gallery itself.”
