This agency represents Asian escorts only, with 8 women pictured on the site at the time of review. There wasn't much in the way of bio information, just photographs for the various women, along with maybe a sentence or two of description. Rates are clear, service is outcall only, they serve outlying areas as well. Booking is via online form or telephone.

Ophelia has been practicing BDSM for years, and is one of VERY few professional submissives I've encountered in years of reviewing sites. Her interests are in masochism and pain play, roleplay and D/s, and the site is very clear that no sexual contact (i.e. penetration of any kind) is allowed in a session. OTK, caning, single tail and other corporal punishment is the focus. Many photos are provided, many featuring extensive bruising. The site isn't the cleanest design, and some of it gets uncomfortably personal in long dissertations about being a "real" submissive and about past RL relationships, but that aside this is a very niche service and I have no reason to doubt the sincerity here. As far as rates, those are not clear - you have to call to find out, based on the type of scene you are looking for. Be prepared to provide references, there is a booking form online. Ophelia also does do some traveling.

Jezebel's NYC is a pro-domination house located in lower Manhattan. The site itself is kind of tricky, because it looks as if they re-made the site, and just put the new one on top of the old, so depending on where you're at, you end up at an old schedule page instead of a new one. They have a posted daily schedule, which if you access from the home page, is current - it shows who is working that day, and each thumbnail links to a page with more photos and info about the services and rates provided.
