The apex of Ingrid's second year residency in Vienna resulting from her participation as member of der Höllenfeuer Verein came during the second weekend in June. It was the three day event of Boundcon at Munich, Germany. This international BDSM convention is the largest of its kind in Europe. Exhibitors present a wide range of fetish clothing, BDSM toy's, tools, and many more on five thousand square metres of exhibitors. In addition, unique shows and acts with great models and riggers, of well-known performers from all over the world as well as exciting young talents are there to entertain the visitors. The entertainment consists of intricate bondage and sparkling spanking sessions.
In addition, there are workshops which give visitors the opportunity to gain knowledge, tips, and tricks from experts in the field of BDSM and international top riggers. They are orientated towards beginners as well as advanced participants and offer the possibility to get to know many assorted styles, topics and variants of bondage and BDSM and to extend and deepen one's own knowledge. There's space also available for visitors to book a session for a professional rigger to tie a visitor up.
Mistress Denna was so looking forward to this event, as it was the first time, she would be taking part as a rigger displaying her expertise in shibari. She was scheduled to tie up two women, in the Custom Photo Shooting sessions. She naturally recruited Ingrid, and enticed Lucrezia to also participate. Now the Custom Photo Shootings is a live event where clips are produced with real hardcore bondage and BDSM scenes. Top riggers dedicate themselves to producing the most intricate bondage scenes in tying up tough, compliant and often naked models. For the connoisseurs and lovers of the super tight hardcore bondage, nothing surpasses this spectacular exhibition.
Despite the very public live exposure involved not to mention exposure on the internet by Boundcon as well as other video outlets beyond the convention grounds, Ingrid had no trepidation in agreeing to participate. As she viewed it, she was doing nothing illegal. The current sexual mores of mainstream society, suggests that any consensual sexual activity between adult participants, so long as the same causes no physical harm is acceptable subject to no condemnation. And in BDSM scenes, safety is an absolute primary concern, and so safeguards are in place to ensure no harm or injury is sustained.
Ingrid came to grips with the realization, that BDSM especially spanking and bondage were her dark secret passions, and she reveled in indulging in them. Mind you, given the planned exposure of her participation at Mistress Denna's demonstrations at Boundcon, her dark passion might not become so secret after all. Still, she surmised that the majority of people who would come to know her as a classical music concert pianist would not generally be aware of her sexual predilections.
Five other members of der Höllenfeuer Verein, namely Zenobia, Caligula, Mistress Mercy, 'der Hun' and Cleopatra decided to join Mistress Denna, Ingrid and Lucrezia. Since Munich was only a four-hour drive away, they decided to travel together in a two car convoy. Ingrid took her BMW roadster with Mistress Denna, Lucrezia and Zenobia as passengers. Alexander Talmann took his Porsche Turbo with Mistress Denna, 'der Hun' and Cleopatra as passengers. They left around ten o'clock in the morning and stopped halfway for a heavy lunch. They arrived about three o'clock in the afternoon at their hotel close to Zenith Hall, the venue for the convention.
When they arrived at the convention center, they utilized the changing rooms to change from their street clothes to their fetish outfits. Ingrid had brought along the cat suit she had won at der Höllenfeuer Verein contest, however she did not don it just yet. She was intending to wear it at the BoundCon SubRosaDictum Kesselhaus party following the termination of the events at the Zenith Hall. Instead, she was only wearing the skimpiest of thongs and stiletto high heels. And that was all! The rules of the event were that visitors were not allowed to be completely naked, although breasts and nipples could be exposed. However, as a model that rule was waived, and she was provided with a wrist band to wear, alerting convention officials of her status. In any case, it could be argued that Ingrid wasn't completely naked!
Ingrid had an hour to spare to take in the various sights and sounds of the event. She was fascinated by all the exhibits of various BDSM toys and equipment that were available. She purchased some toys that she knew she would love to utilize once she returned stateside. After that it was time for her to perform at Mistress Denna's booked photo shoot, and she moved to that area. Once there, in preparation for her performance, Ingrid removed her thong and high heels to become completely naked, allowing Mistress Denna to demonstrate the ultimate in her expertise in shibari. For her part, Mistress Denna was attired in the one piece diaphanous jumper, plus her ubiquitous black laced knee-high boots, which she favored in her der Höllenfeuer Verein presentations.
In tying Ingrid, Mistress Denna started with breast bondage. Her technique involved in the tying of rope around Ingrid's breasts in a visually intricate and decorative pattern. She focused on the decorative, aesthetic and erotic aspects of the tying, and not on immobilizing Ingrid. As a result, Ingrid's breasts bulged forward, magnificently producing a truly erotic visual. To immobilize Ingrid's upper body, she employed a box tie of the chest and upper arms, to combine with the breast bondage. Ingrid's arms were placed in parallel behind the back by a cord and made immobile by a tensioned rope connecting the midpoint of the upper arms. The wrists were bound together, similar to the traditional prayer position. With the arms behind, in this fashion, it is referred to as the reverse prayer position.
Utilizing a Takate Kote (TK) wrap or shibari box tie, Mistress Denna was able to effect a suspension bondage to lift Ingrid's torso, from her mid back. Mistress Denna's expertise in learning her craft was crucial in this situation. If the ropes are misplaced the body weight can crush the radial nerve leading to the serious, and possibly irreversible condition known as wrist drop. She had beforehand explained in detail to Ingrid of the dangers inherent of negligent application of this type of suspension bondage. For her part Ingrid had no problem in trusting Mistress Denna's skill. She knew that her lover had to be noticeably confident of her skill or otherwise she would not have considered attempting this precarious bondage scene.
Mistress Denna next concentrated on producing a karada (webbed rope dress) around Ingrid's torso below her breasts. Anchored to this karada was a sukaranbo (crotch rope), a rope that passed between Ingrid's labia to apply pleasurable pressure to her vulva as well as between the split of her buttocks. A unique exclusive feature Mistress Denna applied, that other riggers did not, was to produce a significant knot to conceal the vaginal opening as well as another knot covering the anus.
Then Mistress Denna applied a head bondage consisting of rope only. The net effect was to replicate Boundcon's logo of a woman with rope gagging her mouth and covering one eye. The unique twist Mistress Denna applied was to produce a round knot acting as a ball gag. The head rope tilted Ingrid's backwards, and was anchored to the wrist's restraints.
Mistress Denna then had Ingrid lie prone on the floor, so that she could bend the legs at the knees and bind the calves and thighs together. Finally, she wrapped rope around her insteps and heels and anchored it to the TK wrap. This last connection ensured that Ingrid's body would be in a horizontal position, parallel to the floor as she was being lifted off the floor. For some time, Ingrid was left suspended, dangling in the air. The sight was absolutely hair-raising, but sinfully exotic.
Everyone in the room, with the ability to take a picture, be it via a traditional camera or smart phone, took the opportunity to record an image. Boundcon itself produced a pay per view video of the nearly thirty minutes of Mistress Denna's handiwork in binding Ingrid in such spectacular fashion. That video was one of the highest in demand of all of Boundcon productions for sale. Clips of the video went viral on the ubiquitous free porn sites.
Although Ingrid's face was intermittently in view, once the rope dress was secured, her facial features were no longer discernible. She of course was introduced and named in the video as Messalina, so that her true identity was not readily discoverable. Consequently, classical music devotees and others who knew of Ingrid, and had seen the video, simply concluded that the model had a striking resemblance to Ingrid. Their minds could not conceive that the model was actually Ingrid, and consequently, her dark passion for BDSM remained a secret.
With regards to Lucrezia, Mistress Denna initially tied her up the same way as Ingrid. This included a rope head dress, breast bondage, box tie of her arms to the back and a karada to anchor her crotch and anus (sukaranbo). However, Mistress Denna did not employ a suspension tie to Lucrezia's wrists for suspension purposes. Instead, she tied up the legs of Lucrezia together unbent. Around the ankles was the location for the rope binding to enable the lifting of Lucrezia's body. The resultant lift meant Lucrezia ended up dangling and hanging upside down. Again, extensive still pictures and videos of this episode proliferated the internet and had the ultimate effect of elevating Mistress Denna's reputation as the premier dominatrix in Europe.
