Chapter 97

Aurora:

I put Angelina back inside her crib when her nursery door opened, taking me off guard. It was Dimitri.

“She slept?” He asked, his voice above a whisper, and I nodded. He didn’t say a word as he approached, and I watched as he extended his hand, watching as she gently wrapped her small hand around his finger despite being asleep. My heart swelled at the sight and his eyes softened as he looked at her.

I took a step back, allowing him the moment with our daughter, and noticing that, he removed his hand from inside the crib as he turned to face me. Our eyes met for a second, and I looked down at my feet before turning around to fix the blanket that I had on my lap as I was putting my little one to sleep.

I folded it and put it back inside the closet before walking to the bedroom. I knew that Dimitri would be calling the maids when he left the nursery, but the last thing that I wanted was to have another argument after a long day.

He walked to the room a few minutes later, and I could tell by just looking at his reflection through the mirror that tonight wasn’t going to be one that he was going to ignore me in. It was nights like this when I wished that we never did try to make things right between us. I believed, somehow, that it would have been easier if we didn’t have to deal with false hopes or lies.
