Alfie had to make sure he had heard the right thing. Had she really said yes to this? The dark side of him, the part that lived in his pants, was throwing some sort of victory party while the rest of him was shaking like a leaf from nerves. Why had he even asked that? Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. But she had agreed, and he couldn't just back down now. He was no wimp. He just had to make sure to keep his emotions in check.
Nodding, he lifted his hands and slowly placed them over her breasts, not doing much at first but slowly tightening his grip ever so slightly. He was glad he had such control over his power, even now during this emotionally unstable moment. Still, he was making a huge, conscious effort to not hurt her. And after a moment, he pulled back, grinning up at her. "You're amazing, Laney."
