STORM
His hips moved with a slow grace - the hips of someone who has danced in front of the mirror long enough to seduce himself. The reflection was so clear that all his sensuality, all its rotations, seemed a sufficient return for the dance itself. I watched him stop his hips for half a second several times, as if checking whether the movement was still there, and then release them again. And that was when I understood that the iliofemoral ligament had just become the strongest ligament in his entire body.
