San Francisco, Saturday, March 20.  What a magically beautiful
evening...:  after a golden, red and violet sunset, the cloak of
darkness was over us, stars glittering in the sky like jewels
embroidered in precious silk.

Alex, Cassandra and I entered STella's house. We immediately hugged
her and wjr, then we greeted the other friends.  We saw Bambi, a
beautiful blonde young woman with gorgeous nipple piercings; Orbis
Tertius from Portland, who had been staying at STella's house for
a few nights and was so kind to help her and wjr to clean and
prepare the house, very handsome and kind; and Lasher, a dark, tall
young man, fascinating, all clothed in black leather.  

Others yet arrived later, including Rhiannon, smiling, gentle and
attractive, with her top Leonard, a very sweet and nice person -
whom I remember very well for what he later did to me at Charles'
party, Monday 22; Roy, whom Alex likes so much, and who is really
a lovable young man; Lovejohn, a fascinating young blonde man;
and... ah, woe is me, I didn't write all of your names down: pardon
me, dearest friends, if I'm forgetting any of you!

And, ah, *Averti* was there - I discussed a lot with Alex, later, about
exactly how much handsome Averti was, my Master being sure he was
the most beautiful mature man he has ever seen, I disagreeing but
considering him surely one of the most attractive men I ever looked
at.  Averti was tall and masterful, and I immediately felt simpathy
towards him.  And he is not only beautiful, but intelligent as
well.  Last, but not least, he has got _class_!

We made a holy thing, a circle of spiritual love and communion,
before beginning play.  Pity Averti declined to join - I would 
*really* have liked it, to get closer with him...

In turn, each person of the circle went inside the heart of the
group, and spoke his or her soul. It was deeply moving and many of
us had tears in their eyes. Of all, I most remember wjr, saying:
"Oh, my friends, how I love this woman! How I love this woman!" as
he embraced STella. Then he thanked a lot Orbis, for all his precious
help, and he had gentle words also for me and Alex. However, we
spoke not only with words; we exchanged overwhelming glances, using
all the power of our eyes, and the athmosphere was pregnant of
love, energy and affection.

After the circle experience Josh arrived, and other people.  Alex
and I began then to prepare things for Stella's cutting, with help
from many others.  Sterile gloves, knife, disinfectant, candles,
ashes. We wanted all the items prepared in cleanness and good order,
before the beginning of the scene. Alex and I blessed the flame of
the candle, and waited a few minutes, until the fire palpably called
us: "It's the perfect time, Laylah.  Now!" told me Alex. "Yes, my
love, yes, now! " I agreed.

STella sat on the floor of her studio, with wjr lovingly supporting
her.  Some of the friends were inside the room, others near the
door, all sending to her good energy and affection.  Alex and I
put on the gloves, then he kept the blade on the flame for several
seconds, until it was very hot.  "wjr, please help her to stay quite
still", he said, and to STella: "We love you".

My Master made the first cut, passing with the knife on the same
line two or three times, each time enlarging the lips of the cut
a little, for a neater, more marked sign.  STella was corageous
and sweet; she moaned softly, without screaming, and without moving -
I admired her a lot.  Alex said as he cut, speaking slowly,
solemnly, each syllable distinct: "Fire and Ice are One".  Shining
magic was in the air; I felt myself a top and a shaman; my mind
was very clear and I was almost flying at the same time.

It was my turn now to cut our beloved friend. I heated again the
blade, then slid its honed edge one first time over her tender,
offered flesh, saying: "Light and Darkness are One.", and smiling
lovingly to her.  Then I deepened the second line, I widened it,
my soul full of joy, my spirit taking off. Her blood was beautiful
and holy, she was happy and perfect, enjoying wonderfully her pain.
"We love you, STella - I whispered - we love you."

Alex made the third cut, with the blade freshly heated once more.
"Pain and Love are One", he said, his movements fluid and perfect,
a powerful light shining in his heart and in his face.  When he
passed again on the cutting, he added: "Feel our knife, feel our
love."  STella was clearly full of endorphins now, and her eyes
were deep and intense.  I felt the power dancing in my Lord's hands
as well as in mine.

I put the knife on the flame, then I drew the fourth line of the
star.  New wonderful blood was spilled, new tender flesh was carved:
"As All is Holy, so All is One", I said, my heart beating fast, my
joy a tower of blinding light. And STella was ever offering herself
in perfection, her husband embracing her with immense love.

The energy and the magic were very near to a climax. Alex was
closing the pentacle - "As in the Beginning, so in the End..."...
and, then, just as he finished the last line:  "and now, the Star
is closed, the Five are One!". I almost screamed of joy and power!
STella was in ecstasy...

Many small but crucial details followed - working ashes into the
cuts, making sure everything was safe, extinguishing the flame,
and so on - but thankfully Alex masterminded them all, for I felt
as ecstatic and giddy as our beloved STella.  We embraced, we
cuddled together, slowly winding down our feelings and emotions...

The room was, if possible, even more full of light and love than
before. It was actually a perfect scene, simple yet full of love.

After a while, some of the friends were leaving.  I remember our
fascinating Averti left quite soon... pity.  Sigh.  I didn't even
get to tell him how much I would like to play with him!

Later in the night Josh flogged Roy severely.  After a beautiful
but quite brief warm up, Josh began to lash very intensely Roy's
back, dancing and moving in his typical, beautiful style. The flesh
of the young man began to be bruised and marked. He was sobbing
silently, completely offered and submissive. It was a great scene.

Near the end Josh was in his unique top-space, animal-style trance
of power; Cassandra and I, careful spotters as well as entranced
viewers, saw little drops of blood flowing from a little scrape on
Roy's back.  Cassandra signalled it to Josh, and he started winding
down rapidly, stopping after a few more lashes.  Roy was weeping,
happy and shaken at the same time. The back was bandaged, then the
two men hugged together for a long time - a beautiful, intense
sight.

All this time, Alex was spending most of the evening near STella,
offering her all his friendship, love and support after our very
intense experience, and just generally making sure everything was
perfect with her - no matter that it meant not being able to witness
that wonderful scene between two men he loves so - oh, how sweet,
thoughtful, caring is always the man I'm so lucky to call Master!

wjr was now sweetly and tenderly flogging Lovejohn's breathtakingly
beautiful naked body, lying on the floor, tied in a very exciting
way, and emitting the strongest vibrations of his joy in being
whipped. I looked for some minutes to this sweet scene, sending
affection to both the players, then I went near Josh and Cassandra.

Josh took my hands and kept them behind my back. Cassandra began
to bite me very hard in the area under my breast. I felt her perfect
teeth sharp as blades on my helpless flesh, and I screamed. She
continued, and I cried my acceptance and my love.  Now she clenched
the flesh of my flanks with her hands until it was bruised, as I
repeated, "Yes, yes, yes!", tears streaming down my face, happiness
glowing in my heart.  Josh now was grabbing strongly my hair and
playing with it, while Cassandra worked my right nipple.

The pain reached a wonderful climax, then slowly she began a
skillfull winding down.  At the end, we three hugged together,
smiling, speaking of our affection without words.   Later in the
night Orbis told me: "Laylah, it was a wonderful scene to behold!"

I was so very grateful to Orbis - for coming all the way down to
Portland to meet us, for staying here til tonight and helping make
this party possible with his work, for telling me of his enjoyment
of this scene... [*THANKS*, Orbis, I'll never say this to you enough
times]!  He is such a sweet and fascinating person, charming in
his long blonde hair and beard, and his nail polish and facial
makeup all carefully done and perfect - and I'm so happy to have
known him!

Now, again, I must ask forgiveness to the friends of whom I have
forgotten the names, or the exact roles that night... I can forget
the letters of your names, but not your faces and your hearts, dear
ones!  So, forgive me, again:  I deserve a severe whipping from
you the next time I come to SF! :-)

And I must again thank STella for that beautiful party, for the
overwhelming light we shared together... and wjr, who was so kind
with us. This is only the beginning, beloved friends: we'll return,
sooner or later, and we'll ride on the light again. Blessed be.


Bright blessings,
    Laylah
