Page 9 of Mercy
“Yes, sir,” she says with irritation.
Fuck. She doesn’t know it, but if she had called me sir about two minutes ago, with her hand on my cock, I wouldn’t have been able to turn her down. I would’ve fucked her senseless, but then I would’ve regretted it the second I had to look my son in the face. A good father does not fuck his son’s friends.
I drag my hand down my face, I can’t get her mouth out of my head. The things I wish I could do to her but can’t.Back to work, Liam.
I pour over my patient charts; six kids are starting chemo today. They’ve all had ports put in and are ready to go. Chemo with kids is a little different. Adults know about cancer and chemo even if they haven’t experienced it personally; these kids mostly learn about it as they go. When they are told they will get sick, they don’t understand how sick they will get because they’ve never known sickness like chemo. Kids figure it out quickly, of course. It’s hard on them, it’s hard on their families, and it’s even difficult for the medical staff. As a doctor specializing in kids with cancer, I see the devastation cancer leaves in its wake daily. When these little souls struggle and sometimes die, it destroys everything in its path. You never fully recover from a loss like that. So, I do my best to prevent that from happening. My goal is to provide compassionate care to these children and their families. But, if I’m honest, sometimes it becomes a little much; that’s where my much-needed release comes in.Fuck, Liam, get her out of your head.
People think I’m crazy sometimes for losing so many to cancer and becoming an oncologist. Sometimes I agree with them, but after my twin brother died from leukemia, I knew I would do this with my life. I know the grief firsthand, so I think I contribute something different than some of my colleagues.
Placing a call to one of my favorite nurses, I check on my patients. So far so good, but it’s early. The sickness will normally start four to six hours after treatment.
Next up is my buddy, Javiar. He’s a genius computer programmer, and has been helping me develop a game for the kids at the hospital. It’ll be called “Kill Cancer”, it’s a game that has them kill the cancer cells with different colored drugs. ThinkDr. Mariobut for smaller kids. I hope that the positive messages at the end of each level will keep them going on days when it’s easy to lose hope. It’s not something we will ever sell, it’s just formy kids. Some of these children spend months in the hospital. They get bored, and many love games, especially when they are too sick to get out of bed.
“Javiar. Where are we?”
He laughs. I’ve been asking him that same question for two years now. “You’re gonna be happy, doc. It’s ready.”
“Wonderful,” I said.
“If you bring the tablets to me, I’ll install it on all of them.”
“I’ll see you soon,” I say with a ridiculous grin. I’ve waited impatiently for this day, hounding him on a near daily basis.

Rising from my desk,Nash walks in.
“Hey, son. I’m getting ready to leave to have the chemo game installed on the tablets for the kids. Did you need something?”
“No, but maybe you could take Mercy. It will mean a lot to me if you’d help her settle in at the hospital.”
I slide my hands into my pockets trying to hide my irritation.
“Nash, I don’t think that’s a great idea.”
“Why?”
Of course, I can’t tell him why, so I just say, “Fine.”
“Great, thanks Dad. I’ll go tell her, “He beams at me. Fucking beams at me because of Mercy. Is there something going on between them? And why does that single thought have my blood boiling?She’s not yours, she never will be. Whatever and whoever she does is not of your damn business.
I drag my hand down my face as he leaves, I’m not happy about this. I’m trying to stay away from this woman, not be forced closer to her.
I head downstairs to my bathroom and jump in the shower to prepare for the day. All I can fucking think about is finding Mercy naked here. Standing under the hot spray, I put my hands on the wall and try to clear my brain. The water falls down my back, and damn it, it’s not relaxing me at all. Stepping back from the spray, I take my cock in my hand and stroke it while thinking about Mercy’s naked body. In my mind, she’s in the shower with me, kneeling, begging for my dick. I stroke faster. This new fantasy is my favorite. Leaning my back against the shower wall for support, I’m about to come undone when I catch movement through my shower door to my left. Mercy is staring at me with my cock in my hand.
What the hell is wrong with this woman?
“Have you no boundaries, whatsoever, Mercy?”
She smiles, staring down at my dick in my hand with her lips parted.
“Wait in the bedroom, please.”
Licking her lips, she says, “Yes, sir.”
Turning off the water, I step out of the shower and dry off. I pull my boxers on and step into the bedroom.
