I don't think C.C. has those sort of feelings anymore. It really seems that people are just pawns to her. Much more so than the way Lelouch regards the people he uses. Once Mao "broke," she had to go find a new and better toy. It's vicious, but it fits the perspective of one who's been removed from humanity. C.C. says "the power of the king will make you isolated" or something like that. I think it could refer to how Geass slowly makes people lose their touch with reality and feelings because they come to see themselves as *above* the rest of the world. With all the creators' mumbling about Lelouch going more evil, this is what I think they could be referring to. But I still hope they do it in a way that he's not wholly gone.
Lelouch does have some second thoughts. That's why he says he won't let Geass win over him. He knows he needs C.C. to complete his objective. He needs her power so he's willing to take the chance of being "the next toy." I'm sure Lelouch is fully aware of how C.C. dropped Mao. I think that's part of the reason he mocks him for it. Lelouch realized a while back he's more or less screwed when it comes to C.C. since he can't kill her or Geass her. I think he's going with the "might as well make the best of what I have" with her now.
