The More the Merrier:
From time to time I host close Mistress friends of mine at my dungeon who are available for doubles. This is always advertised on the home page as well as my social media platforms.
Bi fantasy sessions are available with my friend Stefan. He hails from The Netherlands and has made Washington, DC his home. His lean muscled physique, charming accent, and lust for being pleasured make him a fun addition for my sessions. Stefan is open to many role play fantasies and holds a special place for cross-dressers. Unless you have previous experience with men, you must have met with me at least once or have and established an online relationship. The experience will be more enjoyable for us all only if you feel comfortable with me first. The additional tribute for Stefan to join us starts at $300.

Deposits Explained for Newbies
de·pos·it
noun
"a sum payable as a first installment on the purchase or something
or as a pledge for a contract, the balance being payable later."
A 50% or more deposit is required to book me for your session, sometimes more particularly if you are booking an extended session, I am in another city and a dungeon needs to be rented for the session or a hotel room booked, if you have a history of canceling or if special supplies, wardrobe or props are purchased. I have a discreet billing method that can be done online.
For those of you who require a non-paper trail method, if booked with 72 hours' notice, well-concealed cash mailed to a discreet name and address is an option. If I'm on tour, it must be received 72 hours before I leave DC (if your deposit arrives after that window, it cannot be guaranteed that I will have the time to run to my private mailbox). I also accept deposits via Amazon gift card. If using an Amazon gift card, add an additional $50 fee per hour fee (this fee does not go towards your final tribute). The reason being is that cash is what pays for dungeon rent and utilities, BDSM gear, latex outfits, flights to session in other cities, hotels and cab rides, not Amazon gift cards. And unfortunately, my landlords, T-mobile, Comcast, gas, electric, and insurance companies do not accept Amazon gift cards either. Most people would not enjoy having their incomes paid to them in the form of gift cards and I am no exception.
For those of you concerned about sending me a deposit, rest assured that being in the industry since 2008 and this being my full-time career, I am not interested in marring my professional reputation over such a small amount. Unless your deposit contains several zeros following a 1 or higher (enough for me to retire on), it’s simply not worth risking my reputation over.
A deposit assures me of a couple of things: a). that you are serious about showing up for your session, b). that if you decide not to show up, I am at least partially compensated for my lost time when I could have taken another session.
Deposits are non-refundable. After all, by definition, that's what a deposit is (see above). Your deposit can be put towards a future session within 28 days only if you cancel with a 72-hour notice. Naturally, only if the new date you seek isn't already booked. This is why it's important to book only when you are sure of your schedule.
When you book a session, I block out that time frame just for you and reserve the dungeon for your session. It also means I decline other sessions. The very sessions that pay for the dungeon that I created for my subs and slaves to enjoy. The more last minute your cancellation, the less chance I have of re-booking for that time slot. Unfortunately, due to some bad eggs, there are no exceptions for same day "emergencies". Many subs are nervous before meeting me for the first time and I have heard it all- from feigned injuries to supposed last minute business trips to a grandmother's third funeral. I am very strict about this policy. Do not embarrass yourself by asking to be an exception. It will guarantee that I do not desire your company. It has been a common practice for professionals to protect their businesses from missed appointments I, too, have paid for missing dentist, doctor, hair, or massage therapy appointments. Yes, it sucks, but it's not fair for the businesses who take care of my needs and who I am thankful for existing to suffer financially just because I did poor planning and got stuck in traffic or at the last minute I prioritized to do something else other than my booked appointment. Like other types of professionals, dominatrixes also have an overhead to cover, so I expect the same courtesy I pay to other business owners.
If you do not show up for your appointment or cancel after 10 PM the night before - the day of, you will be sent an invoice for your missed appointment. It will have to be paid before a future appointment can be booked.
If you are unsure of your schedule, it's best to wait to book until you are certain you'll be able to make it. Until a deposit is paid, I am unable to hold an appointment.
Tipping & Gifts
While not required, tokens of appreciation are always graciously accepted and appreciated. See SpoilLydia.com for gift ideas, but I do prefer cash gifts which I put in a special savings account to go towards my dream of opening a women's shelter for the empowerment of disadvantaged women.
