Chapter 98

Dimitri:

I walked out of the bathroom wearing a pair of pants, raising an eyebrow when I saw Aurora fiddling with her dress’s zipper.

She didn’t look at me, but I knew that she was well aware that I was right behind her.

“Do you need help?” I asked, slowly approaching her. She didn’t say a word for a few seconds, but I watched as she dropped her hands in defeat.

“Please,” she said, and I nodded. I was sure to brush my finger over her back gently, watching as goosebumps rose over her skin at the gentle contact.

“Done,” I said, and she turned to face me before raising a necklace. It was the one. that I gave her when she gave birth to Angelina. “I am not going to take something that I gave you.”

“I found it in my jewelry box, and I knew that it was you who put it there.” She said, and I nodded. It was indeed me, but I didn’t want her to think that I was going take back something that I gave her because we argued.

“Because I put it back. You don’t have to wear it if you don’t want to…”

“Dimitri, please.” She said, stopping me. “I can’t accept it knowing that someone else is in your heart.”

“I didn’t give it to you because I fell for you, Aurora.” I said, and she looked me in the eye. “I did not lie to you about how I felt for you, nor did I fake any feelings that I didn’t have. But what I am doing is for the two of us to try and build something out of our wrecked start. I gave you the necklace because it is in our tradition that we give our women a present when they give birth. Some used to give daggers, others handmade jewelry. What we gave just depended on what we wanted to see on or with our women. While I know that you are upset with me and you are not to be blamed for it, I want you to know that I am not going to take back something that represents you giving me a present, and that is our daughter.”

please, if you don’t want to wear it; put it back inside the box. But I am not going to take it back, Aurora.” I said, taking a step back. I looked at the black dress that she was wearing, and couldn’t help but smirk when I saw that she had a
