My eyes fall to his green tie, which is still sitting snugly against his throat. He whispers a sticking spell and lets go of my wrists. I can’t keep my mouth from falling open as he slowly removes his tie, undoing the knot and hanging it around my neck. He starts to redo the knot and tightens it around my throat. It is not tight, as I expected him to do, but he looks down at me with burning desire.
