Meh. 9 times out of 10, "...and then no words were needed" (and similar phrasing) indicates that sex is about to happen offscreen. Unless you want most of your books to devolve into porn, it's nothing to get worked up about.
"Beyond words" and other shortcuts exist so that the author doesn't have to turn into a Stephen King and pad out their stories with an extra hundred or two pages describing every single little detail.
