Utah: Or right. Depending on how you look at it.

Liam: I hadn’t considered that.

Liam: However, I still prefer Sir.

He included a smiling face, but she got the feeling he wasn’t kidding. He hadn’t exactly been a Dom with her, but it seemed like it was lurking just below the surface, at least when they were naked.

It was one of the many things she found sexy about him. He had no qualms about showing her he was in charge. She’d never been with a man like that. Normally, Utah was the aggressor, but not with Liam.

It had made her feel wanted.

Protected.

Taken care of.

Her feminist side didn’t know what to make of it, but her pussy was jumping with joy.

Utah: Do you think it would be okay if I used your laptop, Sir? I can create my own login, so I won’t have access to any of your information.

At first, she’d thrown in the “Sir” to be a smartass but as she said it in her head while writing it out, she found herself a little turned on. Especially since it had been while asking him permission for something.

Granted, asking to use his laptop was a courtesy she’d extend to anyone, it was just good manners. You didn’t use other people’s things without approval.

But she wouldn’t call just anyone Sir.

That seemed to be reserved for her host with the kind disposition, perfect cock, and dirty mouth. Talk about the trifecta.

Liam: Sure, I guess it will be fine as long as you create your own login account. Normally, I wouldn’t mind giving you my password, but it’s the hospital’s laptop, and I’m following the rules to the letter right now. I’m in enough hot water with them over the security breach last month I was telling you about.

Her heart stopped as she read his message.

The words, hospital, security breach, and last month jumped off the screen at her and suddenly her mouth felt like it was filled with cotton. The sun on her skin seemed a hundred times hotter than just a moment ago.

Dakota was right. She and Liam were connected—just not in the way her sister had thought.

With shaking fingers, she replied.

Utah: I didn’t know you worked for a hospital.

Liam: Boston General. I thought you read my application to adopt Phoebe?

No, she had not. If she had, she never would have agreed to deliver Phoebe to him or have anything to do with him.

Talk about a cruel, karmic joke, Universe.

Utah: The only thing I was privy to was your name, address, and phone number.

Liam: Oh. Well, I’m their CEO.

Liam: Speaking of… do you think I could get you to reconsider working for the hospital? It seems the data breach was bigger than we originally thought, and I worry my head is going to be on the chopping block if we don’t solve who did this and how.

Utah: You haven’t even figured out how??

Jesus, was it fucking amateur hour at Boston General?

Liam: I mean, our cybersecurity team has allegedly figured out how and fixed it so it shouldn’t happen again. But they can’t figure out how much damage has been done. Or who’s responsible.

That’s exactly what she wanted to hear.
