Chapter Two
KATHERINE
The morning after we first used Patrick's new cock ring, there was another parcel waiting for me on the doorstep. I wasn't expecting anything today, and it felt heavy, so my curiosity was piqued. Inside the box, there was a letter on top. As I read it, I started to feel butterflies in my stomach.
"Uh, Patrick," I called, "I think you're going to want to see this."
Dear Madam,
Your husband has indicated that the prototype cock ring has been well received. We have therefore rushed this new prototype device to you overnight. The two are designed to complement each other.
Yours sincerely,
[redacted]
P.S. As with the other ring, we strongly discourage you against using this on Tuesdays. There is no physical danger to you if you were to choose to do so, but you may find it to be an unpleasant experience.
"Huh," said Patrick, thoughtfully, examining the letter closely. "And there's definitely no QR code on it."
"What? Is a QR code really top of your mind right now? Don't you want to see what's inside?"
"Mmm, right, yes," he replied, as if coming back to his senses. "I do, but we do need to get to work soon, so I've only got a couple of minutes."
I lifted the tissue-wrapped payload out of the box. It was heavy, and ring-shaped, but much larger than the cock ring - I'd estimate about 15cm across. As I peeled away the paper, it was no surprise to see the familiar golden glow emerge. We both looked at it in silence for a while.
"I don't understand how it's meant to be used though," I said.
"No, me neither," said Patrick, checking the letter again. "Nope, no clues in there."
"Well it's definitely too small to go around my waist, but too big for wrists, ankles or arms. I suppose it could go around my leg, but if that was the case then I'd expect there to be a pair of them."
"Could be some sort of collar," mused Patrick, taking it off of me and checking for the seam. He found one, and tested the strength of the magnets. "It's certainly true that you only have one neck, and it looks about the right size."
"Could be. But we don't have time for this right now, let's investigate properly later."

That evening, with housework once again out of the way, Patrick and I sat down on either side of the dining table, with the new ring perched between us. For a moment we sat in contemplative silence. He picked up the ring to test the strength of the magnets again. He's a cautious person, and I guess he wanted to be absolutely certain that he'd be able to take this thing off, before he put it on me.
"So we're thinking neck, yes?" I proferred.
"I don't have any better ideas."
"And what do you think it will do?"
"Well based on what we've experienced so far, I think it's going to make your head get really long and hard, and then..."
"Don't be silly," I interrupted.
"Okay, well here's a theory. It's a bit far out, but you know how much you talk about how you need to get into the right head space to enjoy fucking, whereas I'm a bit more, shall we say, visual..."
"Right, right, I see where you're going. Whereas you get a cock ring, I get a, a... brain ring?"
We both chuckled.
