Im Besitz von Frau Aa Ling: Die Geschichte von der "Dame der Nacht", die mich wirklich IN DIE HAND nahm!
by Mike WatsonAch ja, das schöne "Aa Ling" ... oder sollte ich besser "Aa Chie" sagen, hehe, denn das war der Name, den sie mir gegeben hat. Die Realität mischte sich sozusagen mit kreativer Freiheit, und vieles von dem, was ich hier dargestellt habe, IST passiert – und obwohl dies eines meiner älteren Werke ist, überkommt mich immer noch ein Hauch von Nostalgie, wenn ich an sie denke. Ich habe seit Jahren nicht mehr mit ihr gesprochen - - aber ich wünsche ihr das Allerbeste, wo immer sie ist! Zusammenfassung - Ein I.T. Profi wird von "mageren Zeiten" getroffen und zieht nach Südchina, wo er in einem örtlichen "Bordell" (brothel) die wunderschöne und ach so dominante aus dem Wort GO "Aa Ling" trifft. Er lernt schnell, dass SEINE Wünsche nicht zählen - und er lernt auch schnell die Bedeutung dessen, was ich so oft sage, dass es bei echter Domina NICHT um Aussehen - oder "Körpertyp" - oder irgendwelche äußeren "Nuancen" geht. Eine Dame der Nacht kann Sie dominieren - - und Sie in der Hand halten - - wie sie es VERDIENT - - genau wie jede andere Dame - - und dieses Buch ist der lebende "Beweis" dieser Tatsache! WAHRE (und beachten Sie - ich spreche nicht von "Topping from the Bottom"!!) Domina-Liebhaber - Sie sollten sich das JETZT schnappen.

Within days, she is captivated by Tamara, a Russian émigré whose arts of enchantment include lingering kisses, sudden dismissals, and savage, rapturous reunions. As long as she submits to Tamara, Hélène is permitted to stay near her: reading forbidden novels, meeting Tamara's bohemian friends, and learning more "refinements of depravity" than the gossiping matrons of her provincial French town could imagine existed.Flemish writer Françoise Mallet-Joris was 20 years old in 1951 when her first novel, Le Rempart des Beguines - published in English as The Illusionist - created a sensation in France.
