Giving him a skeptical look, an eyebrow rose slowly. "Was that a concession to losing this once or a challenge to keep trying? Because you're making me wonder if I should be plotting new tactics or celebrating." Maybe with anyone else she would have huffed at the loss of a real victory, but with him.... he was different. He could tease her as much as he wanted.
If anything, because of the way he could make her feel with the simplest of statements. It sent a thrill of energy and happiness all throughout her just knowing that he thought highly of her. Which made her realize that whatever kind of love... he loved her. And it was enough to put a beautiful smile on her face. "You are always dear to me, Alec. From the moment I met you."
Not that she could explain it... just that it was. Just like she wanted his arms about her so much a tremor ran up her spine as he held her close. Sliding a hand up to the back of his neck, she softly played with the hair at the nape. Closing her eyes, she nuzzled closer, careful not to go too far, but still press close.
Closing her eyes, she let the fingers of her other hand softly trace the lines of a mark on his neck. She had stared at it enough to know each curl and turn perfectly without looking. Which sent a blush through her cheeks. "May I stay? All night? I don't want to go back tonight..."
