"Honestly, I don’t know." I rise to my feet and begin to pace. "I am still trying to adjust to everything."

"Hold on," she murmurs. "Don’t say anything more until I dial in Cassandra."

"Cassandra?" I frown. "How did you—" Before I can complete my statement, Cassandra pops up in a window on the screen.

"Karma," Cassandra exclaims, "how are you?

"Not too bad," I raise a shoulder. "Are you at the house?"Is he there?That’s what I want to ask, but I don’t.

"He’s not here," she says softly.

"Who?" I arch an eyebrow.

"You know who I am talking about."

"If you mean the man who cheated on me—"

"Cheated on you?" Aurora bursts out. "No, really?"

"Yeah," I hunch my shoulders. "I walked in on him with another woman, and they were... Let's just say, they were quite intimate."

"Oh, Karma," Aurora cries, "I am so sorry."

"Yeah, well," I flick my hair over my shoulder, "what can I say? Guess I overestimated him, eh?"

"You sure he cheated on you?" Cassandra frowns. "The Capo is not the kind of man who takes his promises lightly."

"Yeah, well... In this case, he broke his vows, all right."

"Are you sure?"

"I was there, remember?" I scowl.

"Maybe you were mistaken?" Cassandra posits. "Maybe it’s not what it seems?"

"You don’t think I’ve been trying to convince myself of that? But not only was he engaged in the action of getting his dick sucked, but when I confronted him, he told me to leave."

"Oh, Karma," Cassandra bites her lips, "I am so sorry. I wish things had worked out differently."

"Yeah, me too." I roll my shoulders. "But enough about me. What are the two of you up to?" I turn to Aurora, "When are you going to tell Christian that you have a thing for him?"

"I don’t have a thing for him."

"Ha, if the sparks between the two of you were any hotter, you’d set the room on fire," Cassandra laughs.

"And you, girl," I narrow my gaze on her, "you and Adrian."

"Wha—" She opens and shuts her mouth, "Me and Adrian, what?"

"There’s something there." I waggle my eyebrows.

"But—"

"Don’t bother denying it, missy, I’ve seen how he follows you with his gaze when he thinks no one is looking, and how you steal glances at him on the sly."

"I don’t steal glances at him," she protests.

"Oh, yeah, you do." Aurora laughs, "I noticed it too."
