Elijah making eye-contact and then gently dragging his fingers over the back of his leg was enough to make Ric take a deep, unsteady breath, bend that knee so he had some leverage, and follow the wordless direction and move.
Once he did that, slow and with Elijah, he didn't break eye-contact. It was him surrendering a bit of control, but it was also a subtle, internal shift that he didn't recognize, lost as he was in the grip of Elijah's throat, and feel of his mouth and hands. The moment he stopped being restrained and worrying about maintaining control of himself, he... transferred his attention to Elijah.
It was...
Well, it was a sort of very fundamental, mild kind of power exchange. He stopped worrying about what he was doing, let himself sink into sensation and arousal so intense it made him tremble just a bit, under the slightest touch. Instead, he focused in hard, intuitive and deep, on reading Elijah. Working with him, as it were, to read whatever cues he was given, take the encouragement and pursue it. Very, very mild, honestly, but... basically he let go of himself, and held onto Elijah, instead.
