KATHERINE
We knew that something new was going to be delivered soon, but had no idea of exactly when. Every time I heard the doorbell, I'd rush to the front door in excitement, only to be hugely disappointed when it turned out to be for something mundane. As a result, it was a bit anticlimactic when the package that I'd been so eagerly waiting for turned out to be just a small padded envelope, which was pushed through the letter slot and fell onto the mat without me noticing. It wasn't until I'd opened it and scattered the contents on the kitchen table that I realised what I was looking at.
"Patrick!" I called, "You probably want to come and see this!"
He made his way steadily downstairs and into the kitchen, and only once he recognised the font on the letter did he make the connection and start getting excited.
Dear Madam,
Apologies for the delay in getting this to you. This prototype has taken a lot of effort to get right. The enclosed nipple rings are designed to be worn for extended periods, and there is no reason not to wear them continuously, even when sleeping. We have also addressed the Tuesday problem, meaning that you can continue to wear them on Tuesdays with no unexpected effects.
As you will have come to expect from our prototypes, while they have interesting properties on their own, they will also have additional effects when used in conjunction with other items - in this case, the collar that you already have. However, it is very important to wait for at least 12 days before attempting to do this. Using the two together before your body has become accustomed to the nipple rings could permanently break the collar and cause physical harm to you. We accept no liability if you choose to ignore this advice.
Yours sincerely,
[redacted]
I had butterflies in my stomach with the excitement. I was disappointed that I'd have to wait so long to use the new rings to their full potential, but the warnings were dire, and losing the collar permanently was not worth the risk.
I passed the letter over to Patrick in case he wanted to check it for hidden QR codes, and then unwrapped the small parcel that had been in the padded envelope with the letter. As before, it was surrounded in many layers of tissue paper, and once I eventually got to the centre I found myself holding two small slender golden rings. To an unknowing eye, they could just be normal earrings, but they were completely solid with no seam whatsoever.
I moved through to the next room so that I wasn't in full view of the front door, and started to strip off my top half.
"You're going to try them right now?" asked Patrick.
"Of course I am. I've been waiting for these for ages."
"I was wondering if you might want to go upstairs and stand in front of the mirror."
"I can do that, if you think I should."
We moved into the bedroom, and I continued to unzip my dress and slip the shoulders off. Looking at my reflection, the gradual change in my breasts over recent days were now clear to see. None of my bras fit any more, but I was holding off on buying any replacements until my breasts stopped growing. I watched myself in the mirror as I took off the bra. I really liked the way I looked now - I'd been concerned that bigger might mean saggier, but if anything, the opposite was the case. And the other things that had been mentioned on the webchat were apparent too - a little bit more muscle tone, my hair a little bit glossier. Patrick was looking good too, not in a meathead beefcake kind of way, but just a tad more fondleable, and the ease with which he threw me around was super hot.
"Well, here we go." I took a deep breath and slipped the rings onto my nipples, giving them a vigorous push into place, to make sure they wouldn't fall back off. And absolutely nothing happened. I prodded my nipples a bit, but could discern no difference. Patrick took a turn at stimulating them as well, with the same lacklustre result. It felt good, of course, but no different from before.
"Hmmm, that's disappointing," I said, "but maybe these ones work in a different way. The letter did say that they'd been designed to be worn for extended periods, so maybe they're more of a slow-burn kind of thing."
Feeling somewhat crestfallen, I put my bra back on, and my dress, and got back to work.

That evening, as I undressed for bed, I looked at myself in the mirror. Inspecting the rings closely in the mirror, I wondered if they had maybe got a bit thicker. It was too subtle to be certain.
