[ Elijah doesn't have to say more than that. Agreas would know that he isn't getting much more out of the other anyway.. Elijah has always been like this. As direct and blunt as he is, there's a few things he does hold back more.. and this would be one of them, wouldn't it. This is just about as direct of an anwer as the other can give to his question, especially when it's combined with that small gesture.
It's mostly the gesture that does it. The way Elijah's fingertips slide across his hand, beckoning him back.. there's no way he could refuse those. Especially since it seems to knock something in his subconscious into gear.
Agreas has never been a very violent sort of alpha. Sure, he does have a temper, but he's not the type to hurt or force anyone who doesn't deserve it. People who deserve it can fuck right off or even get hit by him, but Agreas is endlessly good to people who haven't done any wrong - and that's exactly where his alpha instincts do kick in. Rather than being forceful or violent, it's more like a gut instinct to keep the people important as safe as he can. As close as he can. It's a warm sort of overprotective force that he's definitely felt around Elijah before, to a point where he couldn't identify anymore how much of it was personal and how much of it were his alpha instincts acting up. Every time he carried Elijah close, he always felt like holding him a little closer, a little tighter, feeling like crawling into the bed besides him and just protectively wrap himself around the other.
He never acted upon them. It felt like crossing a line at the moments when Elijah was most vulnerable, and he knew the worst of his instincts would then just kick in anyway and take Elijah, claiming him for himself.
But now it's already happened. He's already mated with Elijah, and Elijah himself is even okay with it. He's even trying to wordlessly say Agreas should touch him again, and nothing sets off that warm gut feeling the way that does. If Elijah is alright with it, then he'll gladly at least give in to that part of his instincts.
His body follows the movements of Elijah's fingertips, wordlessly moving closer to the other before he's already snuck his arms around Elijah, holding the omega and pushing him down slowly to the bed with just his weight that's pressing against the other. His grip tightens a little once Elijah is lying there on his back, and the way Agreas finds the way his body protectively covers the other's like this feeling much better than he ever imagined it.
Which is saying a lot, considering how much he found himself getting riled up inside at times when he imagined holding Elijah like this to begin with.
He doesn't smile yet. It almost feels like he's in a daze instead, and Agreas ends up burying his face against Elijah's collar bone and shoulder, gently kissing the mark he left there last night. ]
Be my omega then, Elijah...
[ It's nothing that really still has to be agreed on. It's already happened, after all - even if either of them didn't like it, they're stuck together. But the part of Agreas that had such romantic ideas about this whole deal can't help but say it anyway, almost whispering between small kisses on the marked spot. ]
I'll be the best alpha for you.. I promise. [ He doesn't know just what would or wouldn't be embarrassing for Elijah in this situation, since he doesn't know just how far the exception stretches just for him - but he can't help but let the words spill out of his mouth anyway. His heart races so fast that they come out before he even thinks about it, straight from the more instinctive parts of his brain, so incredibly eager that Elijah is his omega now. His. Elijah who acts so strong but sometimes looks so cute and helpless is all his to comfort and protect. ]
