They all met downstairs at the dining table. As soon as Enzo saw his mother, he ran to her and asked to be carried.

"I hope he didn't trouble you too much," Aurora said to Daisy.

"Mama, mama…," Enzo said, butting into their conversation, "Grandpa's office big… lots, lots, lots of books," he said.

"Oh no, he was very well behaved. Weren't you?" Daisy tickled Enzo's sides as he giggled. "He told us a lot about his favorite things. Right now, he's telling you about grandpa's library. He's so energetic. He didn't want to take a nap but fell asleep right away anyway," replied Daisy.

Dimitri was having the best time of his life, he had his family under one roof. When he looked over at his father, he saw that he had a smile on his face as well. It seems like his son was a hit. Having him around had softened their hearts as well.

The dining table had been laden with dishes that could feed at least a dozen people, and it looked like they were having a feast. Daisy said it was because Dimitri had returned with them, and they were celebrating their arrival. There was so much food that she could probably get a spoonful of each dish and still never get to taste everything.

They had sitting arrangements assigned at the table. Matthew occupied the head of the table, with Daisy on his right and Dimitri seated on his left. Dimitri pulled out the chair next to him for Aurora, and before she could call her son, his grandma had already told him to sit beside her.

She was worried that he was going to make a mess while he ate, but she needn't worry because there was a maid to serve him food, then there was one to feed him, and there was one to clean up after his mess. There were so many maids in the house that you just had to voice out what you wanted, and it appeared right before you. There was a maid to do everything you wished for.

After dinner, everybody went back to their rooms to rest for the night. It had been a long day, and Aurora was looking forward to having a nice bath and closing her eyes but was apprehensive about spending the night with Dimitri.

They had placed Lorenzo to sleep in the room next to theirs, theirs? She didn't even know if she was supposed to share a room with him, or if she wanted to. Does she? Maybe she should just sleep in the room beside Enzo. She was still contemplating when she heard Dimitri trying to get her attention.

"I didn't know what colors you preferred for Enzo's bedroom, so I told them not to remodel that room or any of the other rooms. An interior decorator will drop by tomorrow, so you can tell them what you need, and what color you want the rooms painted." Dimitri had to explain this because the room Enzo was sleeping in right now was very sparsely decorated, enough to sleep in but not to look like someone lived in it. It had a bed in the middle and two small tables at each side of the bed that held small lamps they used as a night light. "Don't be hesitant to re-decorate the whole floor. This is your house now."

Aurora nodded. It was heartwarming that he had considered her opinion before he had imposed his choices on her, even telling her to re-decorate the whole floor. That will be a big task she was not sure she was up for, but she will try. Little gestures like these were melting her heart slowly.

After Enzo fell asleep, she was contemplating whether she should go into the room next door, so she wouldn't have to sleep beside Dimitri alone when he called her to his bedroom. "I have your sleepwear here in our room so you can change. You can also take a bath if you want to. Relax your muscles after the trip, just go through that door.

I'm sorry, but I don't have any other clothes, but tomorrow a designer will be here to get your measurements and coordinate what you want for your clothing, my mother will help you tomorrow with everything you will need. Just let her know what you want. She loves doing this, so don't hesitate to ask for her help.

Aurora had snuck into the bathroom and decided to take a quick shower. Dimitri had one of those big bathrooms she saw at the hotel, with the big jacuzzi tubs, and to her surprise, he had the same shower too, no wonder he knew where to turn that thing off, she thought.

It wasn't that hard to use, and unlike the hotel shower, it didn't turn on when she entered, so she was able to figure out the controls without water raining down on her. This thing was luxurious, she didn't want to leave.

By the time she got out, she expected Dimitri to be in bed, but he was still in the clothes he wore earlier. She was surprised that he hadn't even changed for bed.

She was trying to stall because the moment she saw the bed earlier she had gotten nervous. She was sharing the bed with Dimitri for the first time without Enzo as their buffer, an excuse she could use to deny him what he wanted.

Now that they were alone, she had no idea what Dimitri had in mind. They will have the bed to themselves, and just thinking about it made her body tingle, her body was betraying her already. She doesn't think she'll have the strength and energy to say no to him when he starts kissing her and roaming his hand all over her body.

She hurriedly jumped into bed wearing the pajamas he gave her, and covered herself with the quilt, pretending to be very exhausted.

Dimitri walked towards her side, and like a child, she pulled the quilt closer to her face. "I have work to do, I'll be in my study if you need me. Good night Aurora," he said as he walked out the door, not waiting for her to respond.

She let out a breath of relief, glad that she didn't need to fight him yet, but she knew he was coming back, so she had to brace herself.

She was exhausted, and she tried to keep awake so she could watch out for him when he came to bed, but soon enough, sleep had taken over.
