Dear Members and Guests,

We hope this note finds you well. It has been a while since our last communication. And so, we would like to share with you a little of what the Club has been up to.

We continue meeting prospective Guests in unique settings with the purpose of curating our future MASQUE soirées. While we enjoy the hospitality of our regular hosts in Marina del Rey, these past few months, we freshened INTERVIEWs 1 and 2 up a bit with meetings at our reciprocal Private City and Private Beach Clubs, including a couple of luncheons with our Bohemian friends, cocktails with Magicians, and wine dinners with Captains of Industry. Every new encounter thus far has been worthwhile, and we look forward to welcoming these new faces and personalities to the Club.

Back in April, some of our Members convened for SPORT, an event sired by the Alchemist*. Fittingly, he procured a private A-level Suite at Staples Center for the Club to watch the Los Angeles Lakers game. With promise of endless flowing spirits and delectable canapés, we thought it would be a fine way to pass a Tuesday. Given our nature however, not much basketball was actually watched and the game ended up serving more as a backdrop for our own specialized athletics….

Around half-time, with encouragement from Bunnyman*, the Raging Bull* went around the room and gathered neckties from the gentlemen and joined them together into a standard length of makeshift Shibari rope. Exchanging telling glances with the co-conspirators, one Leopardess^ soon found herself in the Raging Bull’s* impressive binds. Reminiscent of her past life as a cover girl and to the delight of a captive audience, the Leopardess^ was posed with the strips of woven silk, and her body curved just so for all to admire. At one point, we expected the Raging Bull’s* famous nipple clamps to come out, but unfortunately, they were left at home. In any case, he made sure that she enjoyed herself.

During overtime, with an electric energy still in the air, our favored Kitty de Sade^ hiked up her leather skirt to reveal her bare bottom, which was objectively determined to be of exceptional quality and bounce. The Entertainer^ was definitely taken by the voluptuous blonde, and with her consent, enveloped the room with the sound of his forceful palm on to her smooth flesh. The prolonged session left her blushing backside warm to the touch.

We carried on well past everyone’s exit and just before the arena’s lights were turned off. The additional details of this particular evening are reserved for our Members at the next PLANNING ACTIVITY.

In May, Bunnyman* and his Muse* hosted another MASTERCLASS in the hills of Hollywood with five extraordinary couples. They came from near and far. There was even a cameo made by the globetrotting Brickphone^.

Like past events of this kind, attendees were guided on a sensual journey, where we explored power exchange through the art of Japanese rope bondage (kinbaku), augmented with impact and sensory play.

Throughout the night, half of the attendees were blindfolded as the other half executed variations of the box tie (takate kote) and the fat leg (futomomo), with great emphasis given to experiencing the process and to understanding their partners’ verbal and nonverbal cues. With each passing of the fibrous jute rope over bare bodies, rope Submissives were caressed in their own desirable ways. And for good measure, select instruments of pleasure, like the Wartenberg pinwheel, JimmyJane’s Form 2, and lit prayer candles, were introduced to heighten the sensations.

It was quite an evening. Nightingale* and his leggy friend at one point disappeared from the group, but we assume that whatever they were doing, particular attention was paid to endurance and form. Meanwhile, the Alchemist*, collaborated with a couple of receptive brunettes, who later indulged his exhibitionist tendencies; it was a good show.

We are delighted to have curated an experience that not only allowed attendees to freely submit to their desires, but to have also built confidence in those administering bliss, and for those wanting, provided satisfaction through pleasurable pain.

Soon, we will all see each other again. Our next series of events FEAST and MASQUE take place July 12th and 13th, respectively. Formal Guest Invitations will be extended in a couple of weeks. However, if you wish to take advantage of the preferred rate, you may reply now with your interest. We anticipate pent-up demand, and can now only guarantee admission with prompt RSVP and registration submissions.

Before then, for Veritas Club Members, a reciprocal Private Beach Club in the Pacific Palisades has extended invites to SOLSTICE, their Summer, White Party, taking place Friday June 21st. It will be an evening of libations, live music, and good cheer. If you have not already, please reply with your interest in joining SOLSTICE by Sunday, June 9th.

We look forward to seeing you again.

Sincerely,

Veritas Club
