Chapter 18

Dorian opened the door to room number 1 and led her in. She was totally surprised. The room was windowless with pale gold colored walls. Elaborately carved dark bronze candle sconces wrapped around electric candles washed the room in a soft and sensuous hue.

The furniture was all Baroque, a style which used many details to provide drama, tension, grandeur and even power. Some considered the style overly busy and byzantine. In this room, it was perfect. The carpet was a very plush chocolate brown and the whole room was immaculate.

In the center was a king sized bed. She stared at it in wonder. The head and footboards were black and laced with gothic type carvings. A deep purple velvet coverlet, with light purple edging graced the top. Deep brown pillows completed the ensemble. On all four posts were wrist and ankle cuffs in the same deep purple.

It was actually quite beautiful in a disturbing sort of way. It reminded her of a royal bedroom, albeit, a kinky one.

There were pictures on the walls, also Baroque in style. The subjects were shocking to Jen.

A large picture framed in brilliant gold was none other than that of The Adoration, a religious portrait done by Peter Paul Rubens. She knew it well. It was one of her favorites. Another painting displayed the Saint Andrea Church, a structure created by Bernini, one of the most famous architects of his time. The Catholic Church used him to design many of the buildings in Italy.

“Not what you expected is it?” he asked, watching her stare at The Adoration. “It’s not a medieval torture chamber. That’s what you thought it would be, wasn’t it?” He didn’t say this mockingly or with pride. His voice was calm, matter of fact even.

“It’s . . . .”

And then she saw it! How could you miss it? She staggered backward, right into Dorian.

“Oh my God! Is that a Saint Andrew’s Cross?” She asked, her eyes wide in disbelief. She stared at the large wooden X shaped cross fastened to the wall. Shackles were attached at the outside ends of the boards, two at the top and two at the bottom.

It was Dorian’s turn to look surprised. “You know what a Saint Andrew’s cross is?”

“Yes. I was raised as a Catholic. This is the cross that Saint Andrew was said to be martyred on. It’s been a long time since I sat in a Catechism class, but I remember something about it. And what exactly do you use such a thing for?” She turned swiftly and faced him.

“We call it an X-frame. It’s the most common piece of equipment used by BDSM followers.”

“So, what do they do, whip people on it? Jesus Christ!” Her eyes swept the rest of the room. On a rack hung leather whips, chains, large and small paddles, riding crops, hand-cuffs and even rope. There were a number of hoods and masks sitting atop wig stands.

“Yes. If the person wants to be whipped, they are placed face forward on it.
