Luke had to lean forward a little so he could place the necklace around his Vera’s throat.
The chain was small, so when he brought the two clamps together, he couldn’t help brushing his fingers against the back of Vera’s neck.
It gave Vera instant goosebumps.
It pleased Luke that he could do that to Vera.
It also pleased him that Vera didn’t freak, the moment his fingers brushed against her skin.
It also turned him on and majorly.
But he had to be good.
He knew Vera wasn’t ready.
And he had to respect that.
So, once he clamped the necklace around Vera’s neck, he quickly scooted back a bit to give her the space.

He had made her feel safe and happy.
She trusted him the most.
So, Vera turned to Luke and scooted closer to him.
That close
