A Rose at King’s Altar, starring Emma Rose and King Noire, begins with our Rose kneeling
at the altar gazing deeply into King Noire’s eyes, understanding that Rose is going to have to
earn every last inch of pleasure. King Noire’s dominant energy alone is exactly what you want in
a Dom/sub dynamic, power is clearly established but so is interest in seeing Rose pleasurably
suffer. Throughout the film you see kinky power dynamic in action, along with creative flogger,
paddle and silk tickler work. This film is a sensory experience, as you find yourself entranced by
the aesthetic beauty partnered with the anticipation of pleasure/pain. Even when closing your
eyes you can hear the slaps, praise, punishment, and playful tease in the scene, while
accompanied by the unbelievable joy and desire in Emma Rose’s voice. This is a must watch if
you love charisma and chemistry pouring from your screen. You may even find yourself begging
for just a little more too.

Kink/BDSM
The dynamic of Dom/sub is how we begin; you see the clear establishment of power. This power
dynamic not only creates the expectation for the physical dynamic but the mental dynamic. Rose
looks to King Noire for instruction, from how to speak, where and how to pose and when
pleasure is deserved. These dynamics can be very sexy because they not only engage the body,
but they engage the mind and shift the focus from orgasm to pleasure. Many kinky dynamics
span longer than a general sex act because there are layers to the scene. There are multiple
dynamics at play that foster an immersive experience. However, it is important to note these are
professionals who have education, experience and likely discussed their boundaries ahead of
time. To carry out a healthy, dynamic such as theirs be sure to do your research. Note the subtle acts of care and thoughtful intension in the delivery of pain/pleasure. Notice that the sub is still
being cared for, not only acting as their Dom’s plaything but still remaining engaged and
enthusiastic. Be mindful, aware and have open discussions with play partners before, during and
after the scene.
Foreplay
This film is very heavy on the foreplay, but not in the typical way many people would expect.
Since we have these kinky dynamics in play, foreplay looks different. Foreplay in this film looks
like impact play, pain/pleasure and non-genital focused contact. This is done intentionally to not
only uphold the scene dynamics but to engage the viewer as well. You find yourself waiting for
what’s next while entranced by the energy radiating off each performer. You may also find
yourself thinking of new ideas on how to play and incorporate the entire body into the experience
instead of the typical pleasure zones. Throughout the film King Noire transforms Emma Rose’s
body into a tool for pleasure, pain and enjoyment. Often, we become so fixated on the
penis/vulva/vagina/clitoris we lose sight in the power of other erogenous zones on the body. Like
feet, thighs, back and beyond. When you extend the foreplay, you begin to discover more to play
with, making you more pleasure seeking.
Impact Play
There is a lot of impact play here, and a few tools used to enhance that. We see a flogger, which
can be used in many ways. There are many different types of floggers ranging in what you may
need for that particular scene i.e. more pain inducing, softer material, harder material, etc. This
can be said about most impact play tools, the material and design make the difference, but so
does the user. Which is why it is great to explore and educate yourself to know exactly what you
want to bring to the scene. Floggers are a great tool for teasing and keeping the mind and body
engaged, they can be used to tickle, move air/fan, drag across the flesh, and have actual impact.
All of these methods feed a different purpose. The paddle has more impact in some sense, due to
its design, however many people utilize the handle for some penetrative play depending on the
paddle/material. While the silk tickler can have an impact but not one as intense as a leather
flogger or a wooden paddle. Throughout this film you see King Noire use each item in different
ways, deciding the level of impact. For example, using the paddle over the fringe of the flogger
creating a thud than a stinging sensation. Impact tools also have intended use for specific parts of
the body, to protect and not harm. You can see the harder impact is done on the fleshier parts of
the body. Impact play encourages us to think about the receiver and communicate nonverbally
through our bodies’ reactions to the impact.
Did You Notice
Did you notice the use of all five senses throughout the film? From the taste of spit to the touch
of flesh or even the sounds of the paddle against skin. King Noire utilizes the entire sensory
experience to enhance the scene.
Fun Fact
BDSM can be sexy but remember that these are performers with lived experience, people who
have discussed their boundaries. Find the right spaces to learn from and really study how these
dynamics are unfolding.
Did you know your body can become overstimulated from so much focused pleasure. So before
you start on hard mode, start out slow and build the pleasure. Even when something feels so
good, overtime the sensation can lessen, so be sure to change the direction sometimes, not just
the position. Of course, if a partner is loving it and you are too, keep it going but if you can’t get
yourself there and don’t know why, try touching other erogenous zones on the body that are not
as sexualized, you’ll be surprised at what may feel incredible.
