While holding your hand

They played a fair game, and most of the victories were claimed by Dante or his group. Every now and then, he would steal glances at the resting employee, and Aurora couldn't help but admire his playful side.

The group soon reached the last venue of the day: the aquarium show. A massive blue semi-cylindrical glass tank, filled with water and vibrant fish, captivated everyone. The adults, usually so composed, had turned into children, mesmerized by the beauty of aquatic life. Light blue and dark blue patches danced through the water, reflecting on the glass, making the whole scene even more magical.

Suddenly, a hand grabbed Aurora's. It wasn't dark, but it was a bit difficult to make out who the person was pulling her away. The tall figure seemed familiar from behind. She tightened her grip on the person's hand and followed, walking away from her colleagues, who were lost in their own world.

"What is it, Mr. Dante Blackwood?" Aurora asked, her voice a mix of curiosity and confusion.

"I wanted to see this blue world with you while holding your hand," he replied, his voice soft, his eyes meeting hers with a kind of quiet intensity.

Aurora's thoughts went wild. Man! Don't look at me like that. I'd commit a crime for those eyes if they pleaded, she thought, almost unable to focus. The blue water reflected off his face, highlighting the golden hue of his eyes. She couldn't deny it any longer that she was attracted to him, not just for his stunning looks but for the person he was. She simply nodded, her face flushed, and walked beside him.

"So, tell me more about you," Aurora prompted, her tone light but genuinely curious. "I couldn't find any article talking about your personal life."

Dante raised an eyebrow, a playful smirk forming on his lips. "What were you searching for?" he teased, his voice laced with curiosity. "My dating history?"

Aurora immediately felt guilty, realizing her own curiosity had been obvious. Dante sensed her discomfort and smirked.

"You really searched for girls in my life?" he asked, amusement dancing in his voice.
