Free Mirin, Christelle - Emma's Heart (Siren Publishing Ménage Amour) by Christelle Mirin

Logan, his dark eyes sparkling with intelligence. “Do you follow me, Logan?”
    Logan nodded, not quite sure where all this was leading.
    The doc turned back to Emma. “Now that you have foreign DNA in your body and those cells contain the road map of who that person was, you are now intertwining your cells with those. Your mind is obviously registering both sets of DNA. So it’s not that your normal habits are changing. It’s that you now have more habits.”
    “What about memories, Doc? Do I have the donor’s memories hiding inside me, too?” Emma clutched her hands together in her lap.
    Ah, Logan thought, the memory question is what is bothering her.
    “There are ongoing studies concerning the passing on of actual memories, but there has been no determination as yet on whether it actually happens.” The doc lifted his hands. “At this point, we just don’t know.”
    Emma nodded. “Guess I’ll have to live with it, huh? Wait—what about the donor’s family? Wouldn’t they be able to tell if what I’m doing is like what the donor used to do?”
    “Yes. We would have to go back and check your records to see if the donor’s family agreed to allow you to know where your heart came from. If they chose a closed donation, well then, you’re out of luck about contacting them.”
    “Could you check please?” Emma held her clenched hands up as if praying.
    The doctor stepped forward, wrapping his hands around hers. “You know I will, Emma. You are my favorite.”
    Logan didn’t know what to think. All this was new to him. The next thing he knew, Emma was calling his name. He blinked. “What did you say?” He looked at her.
    “We were talking about my sex life.” She widened her eyes at him comically then turned back to the doctor. “Since I did so well having sex last night, is it okay if I go ahead and try a ménage?”
    “Emma, seriously, your heart,” Logan said. He really was concerned about her health. He loved her.
    The doctor gave her a serious look. “Do you think you’re healthy enough?”
    “Do you think I’m healthy enough?” she asked.
    “I’m worried,” Logan said. “What if it gets too rough? What do I do if she passes out or has a heart attack?”
    Emma held up her index finger. “I’ve got an idea. Doc, could you come over and monitor me?”
    The doctor raised his eyebrows. “While you’re having sex?”
    “Yes.” Emma crossed her arms.
    Logan looked back and forth between the two of them. They seemed to have a close friendship outside of the doctor-patient relationship. If the doctor said yes and monitored her the first time, Logan was up for it. He loved her and wanted to help her live her life to the fullest.
    “For you, Emma, I will do this,” the doctor said finally.
    Emma clapped her hands. “Tonight. Logan’s apartment.” She looked at Logan. “Okay with you?”
    “Yes. Sure.” What else could he say?
    “One condition,” the doctor said. “If I say stop, everything stops. Agreed?”
    “Agreed,” Emma said, jumping off the table. “Come on, Logan. We need to talk to someone.”
    Logan left his address with the receptionist so the doctor would know where to go this evening, and they headed for his car.
    “You’re really okay with this?” Emma asked from the passenger seat.
    Considering the question for a moment before he answered, Logan felt a settling calm in his heart, a sense that he was exactly where he should be, with who he was supposed to be with, and doing exactly what they were meant to be doing. “Emma, I am more than okay with this.”
    “Whoop!” she yelled then threw her head back and laughed.
    “Who is going to be our third, if I may ask?” Logan pulled the car into the parking garage at his apartment building and shut off the engine. He didn’t know of anyone he would approach this subject with.
    “I’ve got the perfect person in mind,” Emma said, exiting the car.
    They entered the hall from the garage entrance, and then once
