Default $4/$8 - Does it send a bad message to lay this down?

At our local $4/$8 table there are two guys who play fairly tight, and super aggressive. They let their ego run their betting a lot. I always sense an aura of "He can't be playing a dominating hand, he only plays inferior hands because I am a better player". As such, I try and play premium hands against these two and then nail them for big pots. Yesterday the following hand came up...

$4/$8 Limit Holdem - $1/$2 blinds
I'm in the CO with A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img],K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
4 Folds
CO+1 Raises
I Reraise in CO
Button 3 bets (aformentioned TAG)
SB folds
BB folds
CO+1 Folds
I call (He is still tight and might have JJ QQ)
Flop - A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img],7 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img],2 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
I bet
Button Raises
I 3 bet
Button Calls (I put him on AQ, AJ, or AT)
Turn - Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
I bet
Button says "lets see if I can slow you down one time", and raises
I knew he knew I had a big hand. I was betting so fast and strong that this statment meant he wanted at least a call, and there was no way he actually wanted me to slow down. I glanced back at the board and was %90 percent sure he had AQ. Not 4 hands ago the other TAG had raised me all the way with a dominated hand and spiked a 3 outer on the river. I really didn't wanna give this hand up even though I knew he had me beat. Does it send the wrong message to laydown here? Will he think he can get me to fold good hands with a raise on the turn? Should I call the two more bets in case he has AK? I'll post the outcome of the hand tommorrow.
