One More Night by Mysty McPartland

breaths and the smell of amazing sex.
    Completely undone , Cooper let the rapture spill through her. She had thought that when she had climaxed that it was over. But she'd been wrong. When Nate spilled himself inside her, it sent her toppling over into a world of paradise. The ecstasy nearly washed her away in its intensity. Drawing in a ragged breath, she let her fingers slide lightly over his sweat covered shoulders.
    She smiled dreamily as she listened to his harsh breathing and the wild beat of his heart. At least she wasn't the only one that completely undone by the incredible sex. Her hands fell away when he rolled off her and when he reached for her, she snuggled against him and let out a sigh of contentment.
    Nate was still shaken from the overwhelming experience, it scared him to frigging death and frightened him just how addictive he'd become to the sex with Cooper. Yet he was unable to deny the truth, he'd never shared anything like this with any other woman. Frowning, he realized that having a quick affair with her might not be the answer after all. However, he didn't see another alternative. Hopefully, after a few months this thing between them would burn itself out and this craving he had for her would die.
    When she let out a sigh, his hand slid down her arm and back up again. “Are you alright sweetheart?”
    Her contentment vanished over the endearment, Cooper frowned. “I'm fine.”
    Something in her tone alerted him, he reached for her chin and raised her head so their gazes met. He noticed the worry in her eyes and wondered what she was concerned about, and then it hit him. Once more he'd been reckless and hadn't used protection . What was it about this woman that made him lose all common sense? He let out a long winded sigh. “Hell, we did it again didn't we?”
    For a few seconds, Cooper wasn't sure what he was talking about, but it didn't take her long and she let out a gasp. “Damn.”
    “My thoughts exactly. Since you're the doctor maybe you better take care of the birth control. It's too risky for us to keep taking chances. We don't want this affair to lead to anything else.”
    Affair , what affair was he babbling on about? Cooper pulled herself out of his embrace, sat up and glared at him. “I already told you I was on the pill. And we are not having an affair. This is sex and only sex.”
    Grumbling, Nate met her glare with one of his own. “This is more than sex and you know it. Look, what's wrong with us having an affair? We'd see each other on weekends and maybe a couple of week nights. It's no big deal.”
    "No big deal . Firstly, I never agreed to have an intimate relationship with you. Secondly , you're forgetting that we live half a day's drive apart and thirdly I work most weekends and week nights. It's an absurd idea.” There let him chew that over , Cooper grumbled. The nerve of the damn man thinking they were having a relationship. She'd rather be involved with a rattle snake.
    Damn infuriating woman . But hell she was right, it would be impossible to conduct any type of liaison with her. He huffed out a breath and closed his eyes. Now what was he going to do? How was he going to feed his addiction for her if he never saw her? When he felt the bed dip his eyes flew open, and he watched her glide across the room and into the bathroom. Swiftly his body reacted to the sight of her nudity and he became aroused all over again. “ Hell , there has to be a way for us to keep seeing each other.” He grumbled to himself.
    He racked his brain for an answer, it took him a few minutes to find one and smiling roguishly, he sat up and left the bed to follow her into the other room. She was already under the shower and he didn't hesitate in joining her. Before she could protest, he swept her wet slick body up and locked his mouth with hers. When she sagged in his arms, he lifted his head. “Let's compromise. Since we'll be seeing quite a bit of each other over the next few weeks because of
