I nearly cussed under my breath as I saw them walk in like they owned the place.
After my last encounter with his family, I looked forward to the idea of not seeing them often.
Fixing my face, I immediately sported a smile as they got closer.
"Uncle Ricardo, welcome."
"Mira," he answered like he was forced to.
I paid him no mind as I turned to his dick of a son, Enzo.
"Hello Enzo. Welcome." I said.
He grinned widely as he said, "The one and only beautiful, Mira,"
My skin crawled as he too my hand and kissed my knuckles.
"Show them to the guestrooms," Jace said to the staff, thankfully stepping in and putting his arm protectively around my waist.
I kept the fake smile until they were out of sight. Then I turned to Jace.
"Why didn't you tell me they were coming?" I questioned in a rushed whisper.
He shrugged. "Didn't think it was necessary."
