Sunday's Spotlight is a day late due to unforeseen circumstances. Please welcome KYLIE, one of the heroines of 'She Waited'. This petite red headed sub slave is a true oddity in this world where dark hair, dark eyes, and olive tone skin predominates. I met with Kylie in her garden, under a gorgeous flowing cherry tree and she allowed me to take this one photo.
DK: Welcome Kylie, and thank you for taking the time to talk with us.
Ky: Oh, no worries. I like being able to tell O/our story.
Dk: Well, let's dive right in then. How did you come to be a sub in The Pain Master's house?
Ky: Well...*slight hesitation as she twirls a gorgeous strand of incredibly long red hair* First, i'm a slave sub, not just a sub, and there's a difference. Second, i didn't come willingly to His world, but i'm there now of my own free will and i'll never leave.
DK: Can you explain that a bit further please?
Ky: It's complicated, like in those Face Book statuses. *small laugh* Let's just say, my first few weeks in His world were as a captive. i didn't try to escape because there was no where to go. i began training as a sub slave and... *another small laugh* i realized all the things i thought were 'wrong' weren't. And that i really enjoyed my new career and role.
DK: Okay. That's as clear as mud now.
Ky: Let me try to take out the mud, then. You know how when you first have to experience something-- riding a bike or trying a new food-- is scary because you don't know what to expect. You've heard horror stories about riding a bike: it hurts, you can't be steady, etc. But you want to try it. So you try it, and yeah it hurts when you fall. But after a while, you get the hang of it and it becomes easier and more fun.
DK: So being a sub is like riding a bike?
Ky: Well, both involve riding something. *another laugh and a big wink* No, I meant the experience. It was all new to me, and foreign, and it hurt a lot at first. But it doesn't hurt now. It's... normal.
DK: And the Pain Master?
Ky: What about Him?
DK: He's rumored to be a cruel Man with no conscious or feeling. Some slaves sent to Him are never seen again. His entire family for generations were known for their...training methods in breaking rebellious slaves and subs. How do you respond to these rumors?
Ky: *shrugs, long hair moving over her shoulders like a living flame* i really don't respond to them. It's a scary title and history on the surface. But it's not Who He is. i am blessed i found that out.
DK: So He's really just a sweet, docile, little kitten.
Ky: No. *laughs so hard she bend over at the waist* He's fearsome, stubborn, and so set in His ways sometimes i'd like to just smack Him! But when you love someOne, and He loves you back, you often see sides of Him not shown to the world. And i do.
DK: He doesn't speak often and doesn't seem to like questions.
Ky: No, He really doesn't. But i talk enough for both of U/us. *grins*
DK: So what else can you tell us about being a sub slave?
Ky: It's not a world for everyone. Some don't belong there and it should never, ever, be taken as a game or lightly. Being a sub is giving up everything: all your secrets and fears, all the control, your body, your mind. That's something many people can't or won't do. It's hard to let go of things we feel 'right' and 'wrong' sometimes. But when you do, you realize a whole new big world you never would have known before. But you have to be willing to let go.
DK: Sacrifice you mean.
Ky: *small frown as she thinks this over* In a way, i guess. But when you give up something, you usually get something back, right? You have to be willing to make a leap of faith and have complete trust in Him. And He in you. Or it doesn't work.
DK: There's much talk about 'control' in a Master/sub/slave relationship, and you just touched on that. Can you expand a bit?
Ky: The thing most people don't 'get' about the D/s relationship is it's ALL about trust not so much control. You trust the O/other completely with everything Y/you are. Many people can't do that, because they feel losing themselves, or their control. But when the relationship works, when B/both give their all to it... a bond deeper than anything in the universe can and does develop. This bond is deeper than even marriage because it's based in complete trust. Many never achieve it because they can't trust that deeply.
DK: Wow, sounds like you're describing something everyone searches for and few find.
Ky: I am. No only in a D/s relationship, but in any relationship, isn't it? People aren't meant to be alone. W/we all want and need someone to share things with, both the good and the bad, the dark and the light. D/s relationships are just a different way of expressing love, emotion, and pleasure. That's all.
DK: That's a very interesting view point.
Ky: Well, i learned my lessons well.
DK: Speaking of lessons, we hear you have a certain talent.
Ky: *grins and a small giggle escapes* I dance. You'd call it 'belly dance', i guess. Yasmina taught me and i love it! Plus i'm really good at it, so He loves for me to dance for Him. And i love doing it. i don't dance in public as much anymore, but the first time i did there was almost a riot in the Men. *giggles again*
DK: Oh my! That's sound interesting!
Ky: It was, so read the book and see it for yourself.
DK: Thank you Kylie for speaking with us today.
Ky: No worries. take care.
Join us next week for another Sunday Spotlight.
