Bound in Plain Sight: Public Bondage and BDSM (Cristina's Crises Book 1)

Product Information

A: Well, lovelies, like always I want to be honest that I had been at work for about an hour now. I was in the kitchen prepping my station for the night. I work in a restaurant and business has been horrible since the pandemic. I start my drive home. Already going over in my head how I will tie her. I've fantasized about this for so long. Now it is finally going to happen. It is my belief that what we do in public should look as normal to the bystander as possible. I'd hate to make anyone uncomfortable. KnyghtMare and I have come up with ways that he can exert his control over me and no one is the wiser. Here are some things that we do when in public that you can take away from here and maybe use or modify for your own relationship. Ellie, who's 41, is here for the first time. She tells me later, "I enjoyed being tied up — I liked the sense of touch, and squeezing, and the rope brushing past my skin." She also enjoyed tying her partner, another woman she met that night. She explains, "I want to learn the skills and technique, so I can tie other people, so they can experience it as well." Paul also identifies as a switch. He tells me he liked being tied because, "I like being touched gently," and he enjoyed the tying because, "I like the artistic side of the knots." Photo: Bones and Rope

While KnyghtMare handles the finances, I handle all money transactions. This means I pay for meals and the tips. He provides input on how well the wait staff should be tipped. I'd asked Anna about this and she tells me, "it's an impossible question to answer," but offered this analogy: "I cannot tell you whether I'm wearing a skirt right now because I've been brainwashed into believing that as a woman I have to wear a skirt. But I can tell you I like wearing a skirt." She adds, "it's the same with kink — I can't tell you if it's a product of me having been exposed to too many images of it, I just know I like it. I feel empowered and free." But the attire isn't all leather and latex. In fact, if you wandered in before anyone was bound, you might mistake the Rope Jam for a yoga class, such is the predilection for Lululemon leggings and loose printed cotton trousers getting an airing between Goa and Glasto. I'd probably put money on at least one of the guys running a pop-up Beard Bar in Nunhead, selling artisan moustache wax made of oils secreted from his girlfriend's scalp during a head massage from monks in Tibet. Photo: Bones and RopeBen and Bella also switch, "we take turns to practise on each other. That's the best part," says Ben, "especially today. I was tired and stressed, but now that's disappeared." It was Ben who saw a friend's shibari snap on Facebook. "It looked like something you could nerd out on, that would be fun to learn together as an alternative to movie night." How has it impacted their relationship? "It's improved it, in that we've got more to do — but our relationship didn't need rescuing," says Ben, "it didn’t need spicing up — it was spicy already!" I ask Bella if shibari turns her on. She says, "for me it's more a sensual thing — the sensations on your skin, the intimacy you can have with your partner." She adds that she finds the studio calming, echoing Ben who's, "glad it's not a dungeon." I open the door for Master. If it is a double set of doors, typically I'll get the first one and he'll get the second. If we are in a higher level of protocol he will wait for me to open the second door also. I'd like to start with a caveat; every relationship handles public exchanges differently and you should talk with your partner and agree upon ways to engage in covert D/s before doing it. Remember, strangers and bystanders have not consented to be a part of your scene or lifestyle. Shibari is, "geeky, very brainy, and it can be very intellectual," says Anna, who discovered it five years ago, towards the end of her PhD at UCL. "I was looking online for kinky activities and I found this event called Peer Rope London. I fell head over heels for it! KnyghtMare and I are always in role. Even when out in public he is the Dominant and I am submissive to him. So, it's with great frequency that I get asked how we stay in role especially in public or out among the vanilla public. I don't know about you but when it comes to my kink I'd like to be in control of who knows and when that reveal occurs, so our D/s is covert when we aren't able to be completely out.

I hope you guys enjoyed reading this. Let me know if this was as well written as my first one and what I can do to improve my writing! I am likely to share more of my bound and gagged experience! Thank you all so much for taking your time to read this. I like being close to someone," adds Paul. I understand the need for closeness — I'm just not sure why there've got to be ropes involved. Can't you just have a cuddle? Ben, who's been to several classes, explains, "Anna and Fred talk about the rope being an extension of your hands, so if you've got lots of rope, it's like you're giving them the biggest hug." Ben is here with his girlfriend Bella, who adds, "it's like hugs with bruises!"

It is rare that KnyghtMare will go shopping with me, but on those occasions, I have a few bits of protocol that I have to follow.

I forgave him, he untied me after a long good few hours and we enjoyed the rest of the evening together and shared my experience with him about it.
