H-528: Cap Isle, Victory Hotel, Private Room
Raina has become tense, stiff and possibly slightly frustrated and appears to be tightly controlling herself so as not to reveal how tense and stiff she now is.
“Noted. Both items. Including your unwillingness to clarify terms to avoid misunderstanding, for which I have to assume you’re taking on responsibility for that risk as a consequence. But, the additional information on trust is useful.
“What does the girlfriend/wife experience usually include?”
Raina will note a flash of reaction to that question that briefly cuts through the Winta facade. Lia seems surprised and then nervous. It might appear as though she did not anticipate that loophole to be taken advantage of and that she has not fully regained as much control of her emotions as she is pretending.
“Oh.”
She blinks a couple of times before forcibly superimposing Winta’s smile over her scrambling.
“To circle back to your previous question. I am not attempting to be uncooperative. For me, submission is…”
Even Winta seems to take a moment here.
“…a level of safety that is impossible to achieve under the circumstances of my service. It would require me… trusting that my partner would understand my limits and respect them, allowing me to fully immerse myself in whatever experience they were attempting to create for us to enjoy together, without fear of crossing those boundaries. Full submission requires absolute trust on both sides. Otherwise the risk is too great. Hiring someone to submit? Is incredibly risky and can result in serious injury or trauma.”
As she speaks, her voice becomes quiet, almost reverent in tone. It is evident that this is something she takes very seriously.
This time when she looks at Raina, it is clearly Lia speaking.
“If you are looking for someone to submit to you as a Domme, then that is not a service I am willing to provide. There are submissives for hire out there and I can put you in touch with some if that is what you are looking for. But I can’t do it. I won’t.”
She takes a slow breath and looks away for a moment. Gazing out the window briefly. Oddly, her left hand has begun to fidget with the jewellery box on the table. Her fingers are making light circles on the cover.
After a few seconds, Winta turns back to Raina with a professional smile.
“As to the other things you queried. Discipline falls under the BDSM umbrella, but as listed on my site, it refers to me handing out the discipline.”
She raises an eyebrow at Raina.
“Unless you are interested in encountering the business end of my whip and paddle collection, I assume that is not for you.”
Her lips quirk up in amusement at the notion.
“Naturally, discipline covers areas other than physical punishment. Some clients are more interested in verbal or behavioral discipline, all services I offer at the right price. Again, these are all things I supply, rather than receive.”
There is a slight narrowing of the eyes there.
“Roleplay is a different area, though perhaps could draw comparisons to the BDSM lifestyle.”
Raina will note here that Lia does not refer to BDSM as play, she instead uses the term lifestyle. If this is something Raina is familiar with (and I suspect it might be), most people outside of the lifestyle consider BDSM a sex kink or kinky play and therefore refer to it as such. Those who adhere to stricter principles are inclined to refer to it as a lifestyle.
“Generally, roleplay is a simple scenario that plays into the client’s fantasy. It might be a naughty maid caught cleaning the room in her underwear. These play acting moments are often deceptively simple and serve to spice up what would otherwise be a straight sex act.”
There is a moment of silence where Winta seems to be gathering her thoughts.
“My Experiences are a different matter altogether. They are created bespoke for each client and involve a great deal of input by each person in order to fully cater for their needs.”
She pauses again and her eyes drift towards the door briefly. Her fingers are stroking the jewellery box a little faster than before.
She swallows and licks her lips before looking at Raina.
“Might it be possible to get that drink now?”
