Bride Of Hades

Chapter 49 - 48



Upstairs the maid bringing their breakfast had knocked on the door. Dimitri took the trolley and told them that they did not want to be disturbed.

"What is this? Are we not going down for breakfast?" she asked.

"No, it\'s late, and they\'ve probably cleared the table downstairs, plus I wanted us to have breakfast together, just us," he said, smiling as he unloaded the cart.

She was touched by his gesture, but he\'s been pampering her since last night, wasn\'t it just too much, she thought.

"Wait, you said it\'s late, aren\'t you going to work?" she was concerned that he was keeping him from what he was supposed to be doing.

"No, I took the day off, I\'m spending the whole day with you and Enzo," he said. She will be joining the hospital much sooner than he wanted, and she would probably be busy every day, there won\'t be as many opportunities for them to spend together, so he wanted to take advantage of her free time.

"Come, let\'s eat before it gets cold," he pulled her to the sofa to inspect the food laid out before her. She was surprised that these were her favorite breakfast items, he had been paying attention to what she had been eating the past few days.

She also remembered that he had asked her about some of the dishes she favored, and now they were in front of her. He beamed when he saw her shocked face.

"Did I do a good job with the food?" he asked, "Here have some of these, I like that too," he said as he brought his spoon to her mouth to feed her.

She opened her mouth a little confused by what was happening. Her eyes grew wide when she realized that he was feeding her the same way she always fed Enzo. And that was his way of taking care of her.  Dressing her and feeding her, she could only shake her head. This man surprised her every single day.

Having enough time to spend with each other was nice, but Aurora had never had a day off since Enzo was conceived, so she did not know how to appreciate it, she was antsy to get back to work. Work, that\'s all she knew how to do, from sending herself through college until today, so she was happy to get back to it. Not that she did not appreciate the time she spent with Enzo and Dimitri the past few days, it\'s just that she still felt awkward around her in-laws.

Dimitri had decided to drop her off, and no matter how much she insisted she didn\'t want him to do it, he still did it anyway.

The driver would drop her off before bringing Dimitri to work. "Should I come inside?" he asked. Maybe I should meet the director, so they know who they are dealing with.

Aurora chuckled and replied, "I\'m not a kid going to school. The director does not need to meet you."

"Hmph! Remember if you encounter any problem, don\'t hesitate to call me," he said. He was concerned for her, this hospital was one of the best hospitals in the country, a lot of doctors who specialize in their fields reside here, so they have a much bigger workload and work at a much faster pace. She had worked at a smaller hospital and might not be used to the pace they follow at this hospital.

"Yes, I\'ll remember, okay I need to go. I don\'t want to be late on my first day," she said, smiling at him, she thought he was so sweet for fussing. She had been getting superstar treatment from him, and she appreciated that he was giving her all the attention, it made moving easier, and had moved their relationship from acquaintances to a married couple in no time.

"Wait! Aren\'t you forgetting something?" he grabbed her hand before she could open the door.

"What?" she frowned, rummaging through her bag, "No, I have all the documents with me."

Dimitri pointed to his lips. Aurora blushed, and she complied, cupping his face and kissing him very sweetly. They had a very romantic morning, and she was still riding on that feeling.

He kissed her more thoroughly while caressing her breast. He had managed to undo the top buttons of her blouse in the span of time it took for her to kiss him.

"Hmmm… Hmm… stop! I need to get to work," she said as she pushed him away.

He removed his hand but held her close. Ever since they\'d made love, he seemed to lack the ability to control himself. Even a small kiss evoked his desire and made him want to take her, no matter where they were. He had never had this problem before but just looking at her got him hard.

If they were not in the car in the view of other people, then he would surely have made love with her, but he had to stop himself. When he stopped, she took the opportunity to straighten her clothes and fix her makeup and her hair.

He thought she was so beautiful, and wished that she did not have to go to work today, as he planted a kiss on her forehead and said, "Be careful, my love," before she walked into the building.

At the Information desk, the assistant personally escorted her to the director\'s office when she gave her name.

The director was very welcoming and treated her like she was the president. With the warm treatment and smiles that greeted her, she felt at ease. All her initial worries and the tension she had felt were erased.

The director personally toured her around the hospital, introducing her to all the doctors and the staff. She kept apologizing, "It would probably take me a while to memorize all your names, so excuse me for the meantime if I forget."

"Do not hesitate to come to me if you encounter any problems. I will always be here to help you," he kept reminding her. He knew her real identity and was instructed to keep it a secret. Dimitri\'s PA had called him on his direct line and had instructed him to take care of her and hide her identity at all costs.

And the director would be keeping that secret to his grave because he did not want to cross the person who owned the hospital and let him keep his job. If he screws up, he knows that his head would be on a platter.

Dimitri had given his word to Aurora that he would stay out of her business, but he had no intention of doing that. He had called the director himself to get his word and make him promise to ensure her safety.

He had his purpose for keeping her identity a secret. Even though everything was going well in his personal life, that was not the case when it came to the family business.
