Even if the flush stayed true on her cheeks, she smiled. Hearing him say that she wasn't horrible for wanting to be close to him let her breath easier. Something whispered in her mind one simple truth. She was falling for her nephilim guest. Being told she was important didn't help her stop it either.
It had been a very long time since that happened to her.
Breathing in slowly, she rubbed at his back idly as he complained about being called lovely. "Scars tell stories, Alec. They aren't ugly. They speak of sacrifice and strength. Honor. Valor." She idly touched a scar before meeting his eyes and sending him an adoring smile. "In my eyes... you are lovely. No arguments. I have impeccable vision."
Carefully helping with his shirt, she smoothed it down before letting go for a moment to grab the soft pants. "You're going to have to hold on to me. Whether my head or shoulders." Guiding his hands to her shoulders again, she made sure he was steady first. With that she dipped down and held the pants out for him.
"All right, last thing then we put you to bed. Deal?"
