Making moves where he wasn't clear about if they were wanted had never been his strong point unless he really wanted someone for one night only. If there was any sort of emotional connection, Elijah wanted to be certain that any physical one was truly desired.
Intimidating people into bed wasn't his style, and he'd found people got intimidated just at the mention of his name, before he'd done anything at all. Yay for reputations?
But Ric's move, tentative as it was, freed him and he shifted closer, more into him, and slid his fingers to cradle the back of Ric's neck as he kissed him back--slow and gentle, but deepening it after a heartbeat or two, wanting to taste the bourbon on Ric's lips, his tongue.
