Ignoring him, the dominatrix works at a table laying out a fan, a piece of possum fur, a prickly teaser made of yarn, a hemp rope, a deerskin flogger and kangaroo-hide cat-o'-nine-tails. Finished with her preparations, the mistress turns, walks over to the submissive and grabs the skin at the back of his neck, as a mama cat might lift a kitten...
