“I’ve got the door,” Phillip says before he lifts me off his lap and I watch him adjust himself.

The hard outline of his cock pressing against his slacks is intimidating, but I know if this is going where I think it is, he’ll do his best not to hurt me.

This has all been completely wild from the moment I laid eyes on Phillip, but he’s never done anything to make me feel unsafe.If anything, all he’s done is try to protect me while keeping me all to himself.

Maybe that should worry me because my mother was the same way.From what I’ve experienced with Phillip, though, he doesn’t want to lock me away.Instead he’s showing the world.

He opens the door before offering me his hand.When our fingers link together, he guides me back into the building, but I notice him glancing up and down the street.I follow his stare, wondering what he’s searching for but don’t notice anything that stands out.

He doesn’t let me think about it long before we go inside and take the elevator up.

“Are you really going to dress me in jewels?”I ask.I’ve always had an attraction to shiny things, and I don’t know why.Maybe because I was never allowed to have things that sparkled or even use glitter.Now more than ever, I want Phillip to dress me up.

“If my wife wants to wear jewels from head to toe, then she will.”He gives my ass a squeeze when the elevator doors open to the penthouse.

I’m not sure what I was expecting when we re-enter Phillip’s home, but it’s not piles of velvet boxes laid out all over the dining room table.

“Phillip,” I whisper, running my finger along one of the boxes.

“Open it,” he encourages.

“Are you serious right now?These are all jewelry?”This is starting to get crazy for real now.

Maybe when I got hit by that car I actually died, and this is my version of heaven.

“Yes.”He smirks.

“Where did it all come from?Do you just have stacks of jewelry around the house somewhere?”I’m not sure what to think of all this.

“I do have some family jewelry that’s been collected, but I had this brought in for you.”He comes to stand behind me.

“This is insane.”

“Open it,” he says before his hands rest on my hips.

“You always have boxes of jewels dropped off?”I peek over my shoulder at him.

“No, this is something I put together for you.”His hands slip around to the button of my pants.“I know someone.You’ll pick what you like, and we’ll send the rest back.”

“What if I like it all?”I laugh, teasing him.

“Then so be it.”His expression doesn’t change, and I think he might be serious.There’s no way I’m going to keep everything, but it really makes me wonder who my pretend husband truly is.

I open the first box, and an entire row of diamonds shines brightly under the light.I gasp as I stare at the wedding rings.My fingers go straight for the one with the pear-shaped diamond, but I pause right before I touch it.

“Take it,” Phillip says before his mouth brushes against my ear.I pluck it from the case and just stare at the flawless diamond.“Put it on,” he encourages, but again I hesitate.“On your ring finger.”

“It fits,” I say, and I sound shocked even to my own ears.Phillip spins me around, and I stare up at him as my hand rests on his chest.The diamond is sparkling, and I can’t believe this is real life.“What’s happening?”

“What’s happening is I’m making you mine.”His eyes grow darker.“Now strip.I want to see you naked wearing the ring.And something around your neck.”

“A necklace?”I ask, but Phillip is already pulling at my clothes because I’m not moving fast enough.

“You can call it that if you want.”

“What else would you call it?”He’s watching me, and I guess he sees the confusion on my face.

“A collar, baby girl,” Phillip responds.
