The company describes the story:
To be free, you must first be tied down and stare into your captor’s eyes…
Sawada finds himself crushed by the responsibilities and expectations that come with being in charge of the sales and marketing department of a grocery store chain. One night, when looking for a place to drink and relax, he spots a sign for a “Fetish Bar.” Upon opening the doors to this bar, he’s greeted by the sight of women in bondage! When Nana, the queen of the bar, gives him “special” care, Sawada experiences a sense of liberation and pleasure he never thought possible.
The world of dominating and being dominated unfurls at the sound of a whip and the sensation of a rope tightening.
Manga Mavericks Books also shared a message from original creator Taki:
