They had stopped at a five-star hotel, and Dimitri had booked a suite for them. When they opened the doors, Enzo was so overwhelmed that he just stood at the door, taking everything in. This was the biggest room he has ever seen, but soon he overcame his shyness and started exploring.

He started opening the curtains, looking out the window and he kept pointing things out to his dad. "Dada look... cars... buildings… birds…," he said excitedly. When he was done looking outside, he started opening drawers and cabinets, trying to see what was in them.

"Enzo, be careful, try not to hurt yourself okay," he heard his mom call out.

"Don't worry too much, kids need to explore when they're in a new place. He'll be okay," Dimitri said, trying to ease Aurora's worries.

This was the first time they've been on a trip, and she did not want him to get into an accident. The room looked very opulent, and they had vases and flowers and figures everywhere that could easily fall on him and hurt him. She was just being cautious.

She was about to reply when they heard a crashing sound in one of the other rooms, so they both ran to see what happened. Enzo was standing beside a broken vase that seemed to have belonged up on the shelf.

"Oh no, what did you do? Didn't I tell you to be careful?" she was scolding him while she tried to pat him down for any wounds or bumps.

"Enzo!" she raised her voice again when he just looked down at the floor, not saying anything. He was embarrassed to be scolded in front of his dad, and his eyes started to water.

"Let me handle this," he said as he lifted Enzo in his arms, and as soon as he felt his dad hug him, he started bawling.

"Shh... it's okay baby… don't cry," Dimitri said as he sat them both on the couch, "Tell dada what happened?" he said in his softest tone.

"Get airplane," he was pointing to a wooden airplane figure that was almost to the top of the shelf. It looks like he probably tried to climb the shelf, and knocked the vase down on his way up.

"That's it? You just wanted the airplane? You should have told dada.

Okay, stop crying. Dada and Mama are not angry. Just tell us next time." he said as he wiped his son's tears.

Aurora frowned, she did not like it when Dimitri had interrupted her from talking to Enzo. "But..," she tried to argue.

"It's okay. It's a very small matter, you don't need to be too harsh on him," Dimitri said while patting Enzo's back.

"I was worried that he could have hurt himself. What if the vase fell on him, what if the shelf fell on him?" She was listing all the worst-case scenarios she could think of in her head. Not liking that Dimitri sounded like he accused her of scolding Enzo too harshly.

Dimitri sighed and told Enzo to sit still as he walked over to Aurora. He understood that she was being protective of Enzo, but she should not panic about small things.

"I understand where you're coming from, but I think he was crying because he got scared when you screamed at him. We just need to explain things to him very patiently, and he will understand it better that way," trying to soothe her too.

When he saw her frown, he knew she was not convinced. "He is a growing kid, and we cannot prevent him from getting into trouble in the future. He will do a lot of naughty and dangerous things and we cannot always be there to prevent them from happening, but we can guide him now so he will know what can harm him and hopefully he would heed our warning," he explained, "It's not going to be easy, but with both of us here then it'll be okay.

How could she not agree when he made a lot of sense and what he said was true. It's just that he was still her baby, and she did not want anything to happen to him.

He wanted to kiss her and make her worries go away like he did Enzo, but he held back and just tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear.

"Enzo, come here. Mama and dada want to talk to you," he said as he beckoned his son over. "You know what you did was very dangerous, right?" he waited for Enzo to nod before he went on, "The whole thing could have fallen on you, then you would get a wound like Uncle Gabe, then mama would cry. We don't want her to cry, do we?"

Enzo shook his head, "Sorry mama, sorry dada," he said in his tiny apologetic voice.

Aurora reached out for him, and he gladly went into her arms, "Oh baby, I just don't want you to get hurt," she said softly. He nodded and rubbed his face on her shoulder, trying to seek comfort after everything he had done.

Dimitri's heart melted. It was such a very touching scene. "I'm just happy that you are now both with me," he thought as he planted a kiss on both their heads.

"Uhm… the vase we broke looks very expensive, will management say anything?" she asked anxiously.

Dimitri let out a chuckle, "It's just a vase, my dear, nobody will say anything. They know who I am," he said confidently. Well, he still has a lot to prove, she will know the extent of his power and wealth when she gets to their home.

Aurora had gone to the washroom to freshen up, and she was astounded with what she saw. The bathroom was twice as big as her bedroom. It had a big huge tub that could easily fit at least 6 people, a his-and-hers sink that was longer than her kitchen counter, a shower that had state-of-the-art controls, and fancy-looking showerheads.

She tried to look inside and the shower turned on, "Ahh…," she screamed, it was on a sensor that turned on as soon as someone stepped inside. She tried to turn it off, but she pressed the buttons that activated the jet shower heads that were supposed to give you a massage. She was getting drenched.

Dimitri ran into the bathroom when he heard her scream, "What happened? Are you trying to take a shower?" he asked, confused as to why she still had her clothes on.

"No, I just wanted to look inside, and this stupid thing turned on," she said, still trying to find the right button to turn it off.

"Come out of the shower, I'll turn it off," he said as he pushed the off button.

"Thanks! Well, that was a disaster...," she was trying to wring the water off her hair, keeping it away from her clothes which were dripping as well.

"What happened?" she asked when she saw Dimitri just standing there staring at her very intensely. He had a look on his face she's never seen before. She was trying to find a towel when she noticed him.

She followed his eyes when they moved down her body. "Huh!" she gasped, her white top had become transparent, and it showed the lace undergarment she was wearing.

She tried to cover herself and shoo him out at the same time, "I… I think you need to leave," she stammered.

But instead of leaving, he stalked towards her, backing her against the wall, and trapping her between his arms.
