Chapter 33: Chapter:33

**Taylor's POV**

After being on the road for almost an hour, we pull up to a ridiculously huge grey house. The lawn outside is perfectly green and kept. The gates open with a code that Anwar entered and we drive in along the narrow path.

We stop infront of the the stairs that lead up to a huge glass door and Dimitri hops out of the car. He comes around my side and opens the door before helping me out. I am still in awe of the mansion as we make our way up the stairs and only snap out of it when Dimitri lays his huge hand on my bare shoulder.

"Might want to close your mouth, you'll catch fies." He jokes and I make a face at him causing him to chuckle. He grabs my hand before and we walk to the glass door. Peeping in, I see the beauty from outside extends to the inside of the house.

"Whoever did the interior designer of this place needs their feet kissed." I say to Dimitri and he chuckles. "That would be my mother. The woman is alot but she sure is talented." He says with a smile on his face and at that moment I can see just how much he adores his mother.

"Shall we go in?" He asks and I nod. H e pushes the door opens and we step into the gorgeous home. I see two maid walkin in our direction. "Mr. Dimitri, is good to see you again." The older lady says and Dimitri smiles before pulling her into a hug. "I don't know where all this mister nonsense is coming from but it better stop." He says with a fake stern look on his face causing the woman to beam up at him.

"You're not a little boy anymore." She says kissing his cheek. "How have you, Wanda?" Dimitri asks and Wanda shrugs. "Eh, same old, same old. How have you been, Dimitrius? You surely have been taking care of yourself." She says holding him at arms length and examining his body.

"This is my fiance, Taylor." Dimitri says as he steps back from Wanda and pulls me closer to him. "You're getting married?" She asks him looking shocked. "Yeah, to this beautiful woman right here." He says sounding proud about marrying me.

"It is very nice to meet you, Miss Taylor. Congratulations." She says trying to look happy but failing miserably. "Well you don't sound very happy, Wanda. What's wrong?" Dimitri asks also noticing her weird behaviour. "No, I am happy. It's just, Mr. Alfonso invited Miranda so I am a little confused as to why he would do that." She says wringing her hand.

*Miranda? Who the fuck is Miranda?"

I look at Dimitri andd his face looks pale. "What's going on, Dimitri?" I ask feeling very lost and Dimitri lets out an annoyed sigh.

"My father is being a snake as per usual. That's what's going on." He says looking livid. I look at Wanda and she gives me a remorseful look.

"I will have Anwar bring the bags up to your room. Excuse me." Wanda says before walking off with the other girl and giving Dimitri and I some space.

"Who is this Miranda, Dimitri?" I ask and he looks at me." Somebody from my past. Someone who is not important." He says and I hear a soft laugh from behind me. Turning around I see a beautiful, leggy brunette leaning against the wall. "That's not very nice, Dimitri." She says and Dimitri looks between the two of us.

"What are you doing here, Miranda? I told you never to show your face here again." Dimitri says soundning cold and angry.

*So this is Miranda.*

She rolls her eyes with a conniving smile. "Mr. Alfonso says otherwise, love." She says saying the last word with sch venom. I frown at the tone she is using but decide to stay out seeing as I don't know anything that's going on right now.

"And this must be the new girlfriend." She says scanning me up and down with a disgusted look.

*This bitch.*

"Fiance, actually." I say correcting her and the look of jealousy that flashes across her face fills me with great satisfaction. "Oh, finally. I thought you were going to die alone." She says and I can feel my own temper starting to peek its head out.

"You're the one that is miserable." Dimitri says and Miranda lrts out an absolutely hideous cackle. "Oh spare me the speech. If anybody is miserable then it's you and I can tell why." She says glaring at me while finishing her snarky statement.

I scoff and Dimitri grabs my hand. "You are awfully cocky for somebody is is about to get knocked on their ass." I say not being able to stop myself. Both Miranda and Dimitri look taken aback but I don't care.

"Oh, she speaks." She says sarcastically and I roll my eyes.

Just then two women and a man walk in. "Oh my goodness, my baby boy is here." The older woman, who I have gathered is is mother, say as she walks towards us. You can tell she's tipsy from how she's walking. The younger girl who I'm assuming is his sister, comes walking behind his mother with a glass of wine and pulls me into an unexpected hug.

"Oh wow." I say and she giggles. "I'm Elina. Dimitri's sister." She introduces herself and I smile at her. "I'm Taylor." I say not mentioning the engagement. With how this Miranda girl reacted, I highly doubt that they know about the engagement. Dimitri can tell them himself.

"You are so pretty. I love your dress." She says touching the fabric of the dress. "Thank you." I say and before I know it, I'm being pulled into another hug. His mother lets go of me after a few seconds of hugging me tightly.

This is all very overwhelming and I know Dimitri can tell 'cause he grabs my hand and squeezes it a little.

"It's so good to finally meet you. I saw your picture and let me tell you, they don't do you any justice. So beautiful." She says and I feel a little better then I did before they walked in.

Miranda is standing in the back with a scowl on her face and I have to force myself not to laugh.

"This is my husband, Felix." She says pulling her husbands hand so he can come forward. "Hello, Mr. Alfonso. I'm Taylor, it's very nice to meet you." I say holding my hand out for him to shake.

He looks at it for a few seconds, making me feel awkward, before shaking it firmly.

"Welcome to our home." Is all he says before letting go of my hand and stepping back. "We were having a few drinks outside. Come and join us." Elina says grabbing my hand and guiding me out. Looking back at Dimitri, I see him talking to his father seeming very angry as he speaks.

I let the ladies sit me down outside and put a drink in my hand.

"So Taylor, tells us about youself. How did you and my brother meet?" Elina asks and I go to answer but before I can answer, her mother speaks.

"When can I expect grandbabies." She asks and I stare at her not knowing how to answer that.

*Oh jeez*
