Chapter 117
-AURORA-
On our way to the hospital, I couldn't stop fidgeting in my seat. If Damon found me with Dimitri, a battle was going to unfold and I didn't want any of that.
I knew I wasn't doing anything wrong but still. I didn't want to have an argument with Damon, we were doing so well.
We had to use one of Dimitri's cars because I didn't want any of Damon's drivers telling on me although I most definitely think they saw me leaving with Dimitri. Anyway, I would cross that hurdle when I got to it.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
It didn't take long before we got to the hospital and Dimitri led me towards Aurora's room. He had gone to visit her last night so he knew where her room was.
As we stood in front of her hospital room four, I brought out my phone and turned on the recorder. I was going to try and get a confession out of her.
"Smart" He mouthed and I flashed him a cheeky grin before we walked into the room.
Aurora immediately looked up then glanced behind me, probably hoping I was with Damon but when she didn't see him, her face turned sour.
"Why are you here? And why won't you leave me alone, Dimitri ?" She questioned as she turned to him and he pulled out a chair and sat down with his arms folded.
"Because I like staring at your face, sweet cheeks" He responded and she rolled her eyes at him before turning to me.
"You're the last person I expected to visit me" She said and I nodded.
"Be rest assured that I won't allow Damon to come visit you so if you're waiting for him, you're going to be waiting for a long time" I told her and she glared at me.
"So you came in here to rub it in my face that you have my man now?" She questioned and I smiled.
"He was never your man, you and I both know that and how do you think Damon is going to react when he finds out about all your dirty deeds?" I questioned and her face immediately turned white as her eyes glazed over with fear.
"What did you tell her?" She questioned through clenched teeth as she glared at me and he flashed her a cocky grin.
"Only the truth babes" He replied and I could practically see the vein about to pop out from her head.
"Did you really do all that? I can hardly believe it although he showed me proof but I just want to hear it from you. Maybe I could help in some way" I told her, trying to lure her out and get her to say something.
Her face turned grave then a glint appeared in her eyes as realization dawned on her.
"Really? Or you're just trying to record a confession out of me?" She questioned with the tilt of her head and I smiled at her. I knew she wasn't going to fall for this.
Any real evil mastermind wouldn't fall for that but now I knew Dimitri wasn't lying to me. "You're right. I knew you were too smart for us. Dimitri, let's go" I told him while keeping my eyes on her.
"What so soon?" He questioned as he slowly stood up from his chair.
"Yes. She's never going to talk and I'd rather not waste my time here. You may think you've won but I know how evil you're now so I'm going to fight back without remorse. I hope you're ready?" I questioned and she scoffed as a wicked glint appeared in her eyes.
"I should be asking you that" She replied and I smirked.
"We'll see. I would have said get well soon but since you created your sickness, there won't be any need for that right?" I questioned mockingly and her eyes widened in shock.
I didn't say anything else and just walked out of the room with Dimitri behind me.
"Why are we leaving? We didn't achieve anything" Ile uttered behind me.
"We weren't going to achieve anything in the first place. I just wanted to make sure I could trust you and now I do" I replied as we walked out of the hospital.
"Wow so you doubted me before huh?" He questioned and I turned to him and nodded. "You said you still liked Aurora. I had to make sure you weren't working with her to get rid of me" I told him and he scoffed.
"You know, I cannot even be mad at you but believe it or not, I care about my family and my brother. You are good for him and I would never try to get rid of you" He replied and I smiled at him.
"Thank you but right now, Damon doesn't like you and he especially doesn't like seeing me with you" I said and he pouted.
"That's harsh," He murmured.
"It may be but it's the truth so it's going to be hard for us to meet like this. I don't want to get him mad so he won't throw a tantrum again. I'll help in any way I can but we may have to work individually in the meantime till I can get Damon to accept you as his brother again" I told him and he let out a sigh.
"I'm going to miss you, Mademoiselle" He murmured and I rolled my eyes.
"You call me everything but my real name" I complained as we got into the car.
"Get used to it, Sweet cheeks" He said with a grin and I rolled my eyes. He and Damon were so similar yet so different.
Thankfully, Damon wasn't home when I got back. I immediately took a shower and changed my clothes because I didn't want him smelling Dimitri again on me like last time. I didn't even know how he was able to catch that when Dimitri hadn't had any physical contact.
Just as I was about to pull my shirt over my head, Damon appeared behind me as he created his body on the closet door.
"I missed you" He murmured and I grinned before turning around and running into his arms. "I missed you too" I replied then rested my head on his chest as he wrapped his arms around me. "What did you do today?" He questioned and my heart skipped a beat for a second, thinking he had caught me but he genuinely just wanted to know and it was a question he always asked anytime he came back.
"My day was boring so I don't want to bore you with it" I said to him and he chuckled before grabbing my checks, making me stare at him.
"You can never bore me because your voice is like a siren song and it always pulls me in no matter what you're talking about so even if you just lay in bed all day or walked around, tell me all about it. I want to hear it"...
