Lin Xiao extended her right hand and picked up the red silicone gag. The ball was slightly larger than her mouth, with a ventilation hole in the center, connected to black leather straps on either side, fastened with matte stainless steel buckles. She held the gag up to her eyes, her thumb brushing over its surface. The silicone was soft and slightly cool, carrying the faint scent of a new product. She opened her mouth and gently took the gag in. The ball pushed her upper and lower teeth apart, her lips forced to rest around it. Her tongue instinctively pressed against the sphere, touching the ventilation hole in the middle. She took the gag out of her mouth and placed it back in the box. Then she closed the lid and fastened the clasp.
