In total silence, Dimitri twirled the paperweight from his table in his hands. He was a bit bored and tired after the trip and eating so much, and he just wanted to lay down beside Aurora and hold her in his arms, but he had no choice.
He knew she felt uncomfortable sharing his bed, so he pretended to do something in his office to give her space. He wanted her to get comfortable because he cannot last without her for a long time. Being separated the last 5 years was enough distance between them.
He had everything planned out, and in a few days, it will reveal itself, and maybe then, they can start their relationship.
