There's something in the way she's so protective of him, and in the choice of words for how she reassures him, that not for the first time he suspects she's had her own struggles. "You're right. It passes easier with good company, too." He holds her back just as tight, meeting her kisses slow and deep, because everything he can say with his body is so much clearer than his words right now, and not in the way they've previously tangled in bed.
Which is maybe why he doesn't notice the way arousal quietly starts to warm his body. It isn't a hunger, and honestly he has no thought past wanting to keep this woman close to him. His hands gently stroke the skin he can reach, and he tightens his legs around her, anchoring her here and now with him.
