A cruel masochistic tendency awakens, a desire to be treated brutally.

Cruel Awakening: Freya Parker was new to hardcore bondage photography, but she knew all too well the transformative power of such a journey. She buckled into her harness, bracing herself for the most intense experience of her life to date—Cruel Awakening. Codey, an expert in BDSM, provided professional care and was acutely aware of the details she needed to pay attention to that day. At the start of the shoot, she lay supine, her wrists and ankles shackled, completely powerless. It was a completely new experience for her, but she threw herself into it, even if it stemmed from a fear of the unknown.
