"Can't wait."

Many hours later, I was in my office and Meera appeared at my door. I waved her in. I had a feeling I knew where this conversation was going to go.

"Good afternoon, brother." Meera sat in a chair in front of my desk.

"What brings you in to see me?"

She reclined in her seat. "Mamma told me what you told her."

"About Liam and me."

"Boyfriends, huh."

"Yes, we discussed it last night."

"He stayed over again?"

"That's what boyfriends do. Have sleepovers."

"You're having sex with him?"

I drummed my fingers on the desk. This was none of her business.

"Again. Boyfriends."

"And he was fine with it … the paralysis."

"I have other body parts aside from my legs, Meera."

"I'm sorry. I just worry."

"Because my boyfriend is gorgeous. And he could have any man he wants. I've heard all this from Mamma already. Liam isn't like that. Our connection is more than surface deep."

There was a light tapping on my door. Liam poked his head in. I'm not sure how much he heard of what Meera and I had been saying. He didn't wait for me to invite him in.

Liam walked in, stood beside my wheelchair, and put his arm around my shoulders. He turned my face toward him, leaned down, and kissed me. Our lips separated and he straightened up. I leaned my head against his waist. Liam looked at my sister.

"This is the man I want to be with," he said to her.

Meera shook her head slightly. "Don't you dare hurt him."

"Wouldn't dream of it."

My sister huffed, rose to her feet, and left my office. Liam went to the door and pressed it shut. He came back and sat on the edge of my desk. "I have something I want to discuss."

I set my hand on his thigh. "What is it?"

"We had fun last night."

"Understatement."

Liam smirked. "True. But I'm wondering where we go next."

"Sex wise?"

"I didn't want to bring it up when we're in bed. I wanted to have a conversation when we weren't wrapped up in each other. When we had clear heads."

"Are you talking penetration?" I asked.
