Cara stood dumbfounded by Marcus’s presence in the villa. Was he the one getting married? She hadn’t expected to be working at his wedding! He too seemed equally surprised to see her.

“We’re finally here,” said Maria, fanning herself with her handkerchief, as she huffed and puffed into the house, carrying a mountain load of stuff. Cara looked down and followed her shyly into the house, too embarrassed to be here amidst Marcus’s family. 

“She needed work and we needed help, granny. So I brought her along,” said Maria. 

“Fine, she’s your responsibility, Maria. You have to assign her work,” said granny. 

“Yes, yes, leave it all to me,” said Maria. Then turning to Cara she pointed to

    His sudden apology surprised Cara and she turned her head and looked into his eyes. Did he really mean it? She had no idea why he was apologizing to her. What made him change his mind about her? Suddenly Maria’s warning rang in her head. Was it all a ploy to punish her for hitting him?“I don’t need your apology, Mr. Donnelly. I’ll be thankful if you’ll just stay away from me,” said Cara with a sigh, looking away.“I won’t. Why can’t you accept my apology? I meant it from my heart. I misjudged you and misbehaved with you. I shouldn’t have done that,” he said, running a hand through his already messed up hair.“Okay,” said Cara in a soft voice, yet she didn’t look at him. Marcus felt frustrated at her lack of response. He

    Cara was stunned and rendered speechless. Why was he asking her to use his name? Wasn’t that unprofessional? She was a maid working for him after all! No, she couldn’t call him by his name. Whatever motive he might have behind it, she wouldn’t fall into that.“Sorry, Mr. Donnelly. I’m not in a position to call you that,” she said, but he still didn’t budge and she was stuck in the room with him.“I have other work to do. Please can I leave?” She asked, but his hypnotic eyes seemed to make her drown into their very depths. Even after everything he said and did to her, she just couldn’t deny the butterflies in her stomach at his nearness. There was a warmth and something else emanating from him that was attracting her towards him. Of course, without a doubt, he was the most virile and gorgeou

    Cara closed the door to her room and stood against it, her heart racing with dread. There was no knowing what he would be up to. There was a gentle knock on the door and she panicked. No, she wouldn’t open the door. She couldn’t face Marcus now with his whole family outside. What would they think of her?The knocks were louder this time and Cara gasped with fear. What would she do now? There was no other way than to open the door. She couldn’t wake up the entire household. Taking a deep breath, she opened the door but to her relief, it was only Aunt Maria.“What took you so long? I’m dying to pee,” she scolded her, rushing to the washroom. Cara’s eyes widened seeing that it was Maria all the time. She had really grown crazy being around Marcus Donnelly. Aunt Maria was right. He was bad news and she needed to

    The men came back from their trip. Lucas rushed into the room followed by Marcus and Nicholas.“Sienna? What happened? What’s going on? You were fine when I left?” asked Lucas with concern. He sat down on the bed and pulled her close into his arms. Sienna sobbed into his chest brokenly.“She lost the antique jewelry that belonged to your grandma. I had given her, to wear on her wedding day. I know it's been stolen. I had my suspicions about that girl, Cara, since the moment I saw her. She comes and goes into Sienna’s room without permission.

We’ll find it soon if we threaten her,” said their mom in one breath, leaving them all gaping at her.

    Margaret Smithfield pushed open a rickety old door and ushered him inside. Marcus noticed a tiny room where three children were sitting on a bed and studying. A scared Cara peered out of the tiny kitchen at the corner and her eyes widened with horror seeing none other than Marcus Donnelly there at her doorstep. She hadn’t expected him to come all the way here after everything that happened. When Aunt Maggie had informed her of his presence she had expected him to leave when she refused to meet him but he hadn’t. He came to her house instead.“Cara, Mr. Donnelly really wants to talk to you,” said Aunt Maggie. Cara came forward after wiping her hands, her eyes avoided looking at Marcus. Why was he here when she didn’t have anything to do with him? Did he too think that she was the thief? Had he come to search her house?M

    Cara was restless after Marcus left in the storm. She was a little surprised by his concern. It was obvious that he cared else why would he come all the way here? Why would he stand up for her? Why would he pay her the dues? She picked up the money. It was a lot, in fact, it was four times what she would have received. Why did he always give her extra that would make her want to return the rest to him? Did he do that on purpose? She knew her conscience wouldn’t let her rest until she returned the money but this time she wouldn’t go to his house. This time she would find an alternative way to return him his money.In the evening when she went to the Kingston Club, Rudolph Sterling wasn’t happy.

She gasped with surprise and rushed forward to meet the kind, old man.“What a pleasant surprise, uncle Ben? I thought you’d forgotten me,” said Cara with a warm smile. Uncle Ben gave her a hug and smiled back.“Did you really expect me to forget my favorite jacket?” He asked fondly.

    Her heart raced with excitement as she walked out of the house, through the meandering path towards the gazebo. The lights cast a pale glow all around while the crickets sang their song with more enthusiasm but Cara’s eyes were glued towards the swimming pool, searching for Marcus. As she approached the pool, her eyes fell upon the beautifully lit up gazebo where the man of her dreams stood leaning against a pillar, looking hot and drool-worthy in a pair of beige chinos and an off-white linen shirt. She could feel the intensity of his gaze even from where she was. Her heart skipped a beat when their eyes met and she couldn’t wait to get into his arms.

    Cara was ready in fifteen minutes and waited eagerly for Marcus. In his haste to surprise her, he hadn’t even taken a shower since morning. After the delicious breakfast, he had asked her out on a date formally but left all the other details out since it was initially intended to be a surprise date. Cara wasn’t complaining since his surprises were quite different and totally worth the wait. She wasn’t much concerned about leaving Marianne the whole day since there were others to look after her and Marianne were used to her absence. Marcus didn’t want to whisk her away for an overnight stay because of his attachment with Marianne. The two of them had bonded so well that Marcus couldn’t survive without seeing his baby.

Did he wake up already? What did the note contain? Did he leave for some reason? Did he forget that it was a special day for them today?Curiously she picked up the note and opened it to check. There scribbled in his artistic handwriting was a sweet note.Good morning my love! A thornless rose stem to prove my true love for you. It signifies love at first sight just like I felt for you.

    Cara felt a little bolder and pulled him towards her. In her excitement, she had quite forgotten how heavy he was and lost her balance and tumbled onto the bed with him. “Oh, did you get hurt?” she asked, looking worried. Marcus laughed and pinned her with his weight, his eyes dancing with mirth.“Nope. I’m fit as a fiddle,” he breathed, his hot breath fanning her face. With his face inches away from hers, she forgot to breathe. A crazy sense of need surged through her body making her desperate for fulfillment.“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to exert so much pressure,” she whispered, gazing back at him.“No worries, babe! You’ve made my work easier. We’re already there where we belong, in each other’s arms,” he whispered

    “That’s exactly what I wanted to hear,” whispered Marcus while his fingers worked their way inside her dripping wet folds. A moan of sweet surrender escaped Cara’s mouth as he worked up a tempo, making her open wider to give him more access. He thrust in and out of her, his eyes devouring her as he watched her melt at his touch. Soon she came undone, sagging against the cushions behind her. Feeling overwhelmed at last to be touched by the one she loved, Cara closed her eyes with happiness. “Did you miss this? Did you miss my touch?”“Yes, Marcus. You have no idea how much. I wish I could erase the last three months of my life.
