(So for the readers who know, this should be read after Ch 43 to make sense. Thank you so much for reading my works and helping to motivate me to keep writing. Also a huge thank you to my muse for inspiring me to start writing again and for giving me the ideas that become these stories.)

"Could you put it on me, Master?"
Time stood still. There was my neighbor, my lover, my friend looking at me with her new collar in hand. It was all almost perfect. Yet I still paused. I felt like I was missing something. I could not figure it out. It was then I closed my eyes for a moment and thanked my late wife for allowing me to find another submissive. It all kind of made sense when you looked at the whole picture. The talking between them prior to her passing. The seduction at the pool. All was part of the plan to get me to the point where I find my new submissive.
I look at her. I smile before I took the collar in my hand. I slowly slide it around her neck before I clasp it. I have her turn towards me as I look at his handiwork. To the world, it looked like a regular necklace. Only she and I knew differently. I look again deeply into her hazel eyes and smile before I press my lips against hers. Her lips opened instinctively, and we shared a passionate kiss.
