"Yeah, let's get ready for bed."

Liam lifted me into my chair, and we headed to the bathroom together. There was no reason to be shy around one another anymore. We finished up our routines and climbed back into bed.

I was immediately in Liam's arms. It felt so good. Knowing he loved me made the embrace more comforting and heartwarming. I'd never felt as at peace as I did with Liam.

"I thought I was going to be alone for the rest of my life," Liam confessed. "I tried to fill the void with a parade of men and sex. I think that decision made me feel more alone."

"You're not alone anymore."

Liam hummed and kissed my head. "Not with the size of your family."

I laughed softly. "I'd resigned myself to a life without a partner too."

"Then we found each other."

I squeezed Liam's bicep. "Yes, we did. I can't believe two years went by where we could have met one another. Noah talked about you a lot but never thought to introduce us."

"Maybe the timing wouldn't have been right."

I nodded. "I met Noah a year after my accident. I was still with Richard." Liam was right. The timing would have been all wrong. The stars had aligned exactly when they should have for Liam and me. I was in a good place to meet someone. It seemed like he had been too.

"We met when we were meant to." Liam hugged me closer.

"We did." I stroked his smooth muscular chest and then wandered down his body, over his sternum and along to his tight abs. I brushed my fingers back and forth over the ripples, making Liam clench his stomach muscles. I gave my attention to the groomed hair above his cock.

Liam groaned and shifted his hips up into my touch. On his next exhalation, his hardening shaft came to rest on my knuckles. I slipped my hand around it and ran my palm up and down.

"Fuck, Jamal … you drive me crazy." He cupped my head and lifted his and gave me a needy kiss. Part love. Part animal desire. I loved both parts. I tightened my grip on his dick.

It didn't take long for him to spill his cum all over my fist, dampening my skin. I raised my coated hand to my lips and fulfilled my absolute ravenous hunger as Liam watched me.

When my hand was clean, Liam launched himself at me, rolling me onto my back so he could straddle me and kiss me, partaking in the incredible taste of his intoxicating essence.

Sated for the time being, Liam straightened and looked down on me. His fingers danced over my cock. I placed my hands on his chest. "I don't need to orgasm every time we're intimate."

"I like to make you feel good."

I grinned up at him. "I felt plenty good getting you off … believe me."

"You're sure."

"Yes. What I want is for you to hold me again."

Liam climbed off me. "I can do that." He lay down beside me and I squirmed into his embrace. Oddly, I was finding it more comfortable to lie on my injured arm. The pressure eased the pain.

While kissing my temple, Liam lifted my leg, slung it over his thigh, and caressed my skin from behind my knee along to my ass and back again. It was a glorious faint sensation.

He nuzzled the side of my face and whispered, "My heart is entirely yours."

"Sweet man. I'll guard it with my life in exchange for you protecting mine."

Liam laughed softly against my skin. "We're so soppy."

I smiled. "I love soppy."

"Me too." Liam hauled on the blankets until we were burrowed beneath them. "Sleep, beautiful man." His hand came to rest on my waist and his breathing slowed and evened out.

Overwhelming bliss eventually coaxed me under.
