Chapter Six
Cara spent the rest of the day and all of the next deep in plans for the party Marco was throwing. She forced herself not to think of Dimitri. There had been something magical about telling Marco her whole story but she did worry about the false sense of closeness she felt with him because of it.
Cara reminded herself more than once that there was nothing between her and Marco, she remembered the way heâd practically pushed her out of his office after theyâd fucked the first time. She reminded herself that it was just a fuck and nothing more, that there could never be anything more with a man like him.
Despite all these warnings that she peppered herself with, over and over again, she let herself believe every now and again that Marco was looking at her, noticing her more, that he wanted to review her party plans more than was strictly necessary.
âDonât be an idiot,â She whispered to herself as she walked back into the house on Thursday in the late afternoon.
The party was coming along and it was to be a huge gluttonous affair, dancers on stands, a Moulin rouge environment, more alcohol than any group of people should ever try to consume. There would be strip tease, and burlesque, and at the end of the night, there were a small group of women willing to do a little extra for hard cash.
âIâm just double checking everything, sheâs not all there, you know? Not the brightest bulb. This deal means too much to me,â Marcoâs voice came floating down the hall. Cara saw his secretary first before she saw Marco and it took all that time for Cara to realize that he had been talking about her. That she was not all there, not the brightest bulb. Cara felt her face flush hot.
She had actually let herself believe that heâd wanted to spend extra time with her, that he liked her, maybe more than all the other bimbos sheâd seen him with so often.
âHi,â Cara stopped walking in the middle of the hall. She didnât want him to say anything else, couldnât bear to hear another hurtful thing come out of that mouth sheâd pictured so many times. âI was just coming to review the plans with youâ¦again.â
âOh,â Marco looked at his secretary then at Cara.
Cara blushed again and looked away from him.
âGreat, we were justâ¦â Marco looked unruffled, âWhy donât you come with me?â
Marcoâs secretary walked off in the opposite direction and Cara followed Marco along the well-lit hall.
Marco stopped by one of the large windows and reached a hand out for her folder. Cara placed the folder carefully into his hand. She neednât really come over here for this, she could email plans to him just as well, then he wouldnât have to lower himself to the level of even talking to her. Cara felt her body grow hot.
âDid I do something wrong with the first party?â Her voice was harder than sheâd meant for it to sound.
