Beginning in early childhood, her need for love and suffering took her from the prim surroundings of a Norfolk girls\u2019 school to the secret, latex-clad, rope-bound, whip-lashed delights of the Tokyo role-playing scene.<\/p>\n<p>For Elizabeth, torture was not about sexual gratification \u2013 it was about love. In this frank and open memoir, she tells the story of a remarkable personal journey. Attracted to other girls from an early age, Elizabeth struggled to come to terms with her sexuality. As a schoolgirl, her fantasies of torture \u2013 always for the benefit of whichever girl she was in love with \u2013 were rooted in her own inability to accept herself as a lesbian or reconcile her desires with her Christian beliefs. Before finally realising that connection, Elizabeth would go through years of emotional and physical pain.<\/p>\n<p>Having experimented at university, Elizabeth discovered a whole new world when her career as a high-flying headhunter took her to Tokyo. There she was inducted into the Japanese fetish scene and learnt what real role-playing was all about. When she fell in love with a gorgeous Japanese dominatrix called Tomo and became her slave, she began a descent into hell. Tomo proved to be an irredeemable sadist who took torture far beyond the accepted limits. Elizabeth went to the brink of destruction for Tomo. Not for the faint-hearted, this gripping memoir describes what she experienced there and how she found her way back.<\/p>\n<p>TRIGGER WARNING: this book contains graphic descriptions of real-life sadistic torture.<\/p>\n<p>See more &amp; buy @ :- <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><a style=\"color: #3366ff; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/EXODAI-Shockingly-Honest-Obsession-Torture\">https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/EXODAI-Shockingly-Honest-Obsession-Torture<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-681280\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Screenshot-2024-02-10-164823.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"373\" height=\"559\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BOOK: EXODAI: A Shockingly Honest Memoir of Love, Obsession and Torture by Elizabeth Hendrick \u25c6 \u201cBrave, compelling, remarkable.\u201d Richard Moriarty \u2013 The Sun \u25c6 \u201cBrutal, vivid, electrifying.\u201d Chris Riches \u2013 Daily Express Tonight, I am going to be tortured for the woman I love \u2026 Elizabeth\u2019s drives and desires have always been unusual.
