He can sense my apprehension, of course, and, as usual, he had a remedy. A present. A present! He never— almost never— gave me physical gifts. You could call him cheap, or say that his love for me meant giving me experiences, not things. I lost things all the time. I never lost experiences. He’d given me a gift once before. At our holiday party, the first time we’d had one as a company, in an office. He gave me a red stapler. There are few presents I treasure as much as that one. I’d mentioned wanting one, and he remembered.

It’s inexpensive jewelry, but it’s not the cost of the gift that I’m concerned about. Many women might reject the offering for that alone, but I don’t care how much it costs. I care about the price it means to accept the gift.

“It wasn’t what Laura wanted, but none of this was what she wanted. I think you do. I do, and if you want to take this journey with me, please tell me. If you don’t, it’s okay. I won’t make you stay. You can still have the benefit of my partnership, you can still come round and see my family when you want. Nothing will change on that front.

But if you want more, like I do, then I need to know. I need to know that I can count on you, too. And maybe we’ll find others someday to join us, but for now, I think it might be mostly me and you. Are you okay with that?”

I’ve already made up my mind, and I think he knows it. But I answer him, anyway, in the clearest way I know.

I take the necklace, and I put it around my neck. I wait for him to close the clasp. He does so. Then he removes my clothing, piece by piece, until the only thing I’m wearing is his necklace. His gift. His property.

“You know what to do,” he says in a calm voice. And I do. I lower myself to the proper position and remove his belt. My knees rub raw on the carpet, but it feels good and right. When he nods, I unzip him. He pushes my face down to meet him.

“You are mine,” he whispers as he forces my head up and down. “Until the day we part. Do you consent to this?”

I’m choking on his thickness, but I force out a muffled agreement.

“Good,” he says, “Now please me properly.”

And I do. For this moment in time, everything makes sense. Can I do this? I don’t think that matters, anymore. I already am. Whatever I am now, that is good enough. I am good enough. At least for now. Who knows what tomorrow will bring?
