friendly?”
    His own brows lifting, Nate grinned at her. “Oh I just told him I was an old friend of yours and that seemed to have calmed him down.”
    Yes definitely slick and a quick thinker , well as rich as he was, he would have to be she concluded. “You didn't seem to be treating Kate very well.”
    Nate's arm tightened around her waist holding her even tighter against him. “I knew from the moment she asked me to accompany her here what she was after. It was better to let her know from the start not to get her hopes up.”
    “That's some ego you have Mister.” She snipped but still smiled.
    “Not ego baby, self-preservation.”
    His answer annoyed her. “Well just to set the record straight I positively don't have any plans towards you.”
    Chuckling, Nate leaned down and whispered in her ear. “I hope those “no” plans don't include us not ending up in bed together tonight?” he caught his breath when she rubbed against his burgeoning arousal and she trembled in his arms. “I take that as a yes, you don't have any objections about us going to bed?”
    The man was definitely good , and Cooper didn't have any resistance against the sensual pull he had over her. She could feel him growing even more aroused and let her eyes drift shut as memories of last night floated through her mind. One more glorious night that was all she would allow herself, and greedily she intended to take it and not have one ounce of regret.
    Lord knew how long she would have to wait for another opportunity like this again. Men like this one don't grow on trees , and God knows there wasn't a man around here that would even come close to Nate.

    NINE
    Close to midnight, Nate followed Cooper into the house and as soon as the door closed behind them, he took her in his arms and kissed her passionately. Frustration ate away at him all night, and he couldn't stand it a second longer. His mouth left hers and drew a long her jaw line, and he let out a growl of annoyance when the damn ugly collar blocked his way down her neck.
    He pulled away, spun her around and started tearing open the buttons down the back of her gown. “Whoever dressed you in this deplorable gown should be shot. Every time I look at it I start to turn the same color.”
    Cooper thought she might fall to the ground after the devastating kiss, but she laughed at his irritation. When the gown slipped down and fell around her ankles, she stepped out of the puddle of material and turned to face him. A sensual smile drifted over her lips when she saw his eyes bulging with hot raw hunger. It made her feel sexy and beautiful.
    Lost for words, Nate could only stare at the glorious sexy siren before him. Her lacy bra and wisp of panties might match the exact color of her dress, but they were most undeniably a turn on and o'boy was he turned on . With a roar of animal satisfaction, he swept her up in his arms and raced up the stairs and into her room. Gently, he placed her down on the bed and with clumsy haste ripped off his clothes.
    Every part of her body thrummed with excitement, Cooper lay supine on the bed and watched from beneath her lashes as he stripped. Each inch of his glorious body that he bared, sent heated moisture gathering between her thighs and her nipples were pebbled hard against her bra. Her breathing grew ragged when he shoved his satin boxers down. Seeing the length of his arousal sent her heart palpitating .
    Thick, long and glorious and she couldn't wait to have it inside her again, her breath hitched when he slipped on the bed next to her, gathered her in his arms and kissed her with such potency that she could no longer think, only feel .
    It didn't take him long to dispose of the few scraps of material she still wore and now lying flesh to flesh with her, Nate was driven mad with his need for her. No longer satisfied with just kissing her, he moved his mouth down the column of her neck. Sliding it down, he captured the
