“Hi mom! Sorry for calling this late. I just wanted to talk to you as soon as I heard the news!” Aira said as soon as her mother responded on the phone.Okay. That wasn’t her high-pitched voice on the phone with her mom right now. No way!“It’s wonderful honey! Your father was so happy when he came back home. Ian is over the moon too. Poor thing must have been feeling guilty,”“That’s great! But, is it a done deal? I mean, is it sure that they won’t change their mind?” Aira asked.She was not able to bring herself to ask her mother the question she’d been wanting to hear from her.“Yes! They signed the papers and everything this afternoon. Although I wonder if it’s going to be okay with you, honey,” Her mother said“Why wouldn’t it be?” Aira asked her heart falling.What was going on?!“Well, your father’s new business partner is someone you know,” Her mother stalled,“Who is it?

Aira opened the door to her apartment and threw her arms around Vincent’s neck hugging him tightly. “Woah,” He said barely stepping back from the impact and circling his arms around her waist hugging her back, “To what do I owe this pleasure?” He said stepping inside her apartment with her still in his arms and closing the door behind them.“Thank you,” She said burying her face into his chest while her nose was being assaulted by his woodsy soothing cologne, “My family called me yesterday. They told me everything,” She leaned back enough for Vincent to put her back on the ground and face her while his hands still held her waist.“You’re welcome,” He said with a smile, “I told you I was planning to go through with the deal anyway,”“But, this was going on long before this. Even before you spoke to me about marriage!”“Yeah. I kind of had always been a fan of your work. This is why Meghan had to come scout you before I stormed into your apartment and demanded a chance for my projec

Like what happened with Jace, incidents with people looking to have some kind of connection with her grandmother and sometimes her mother weren’t common but they did happen from time to time.They tried to live away from the spotlights as much as possible. So when it came to welcoming new people there was always a certain degree of distance.If Vincent had been just a business associate, he would have been treated as such, he wouldn’t even have been invited to dinner with the whole family.But Vincent was a wild card, he was both a business associate and her boyfriend. Which meant there was no telling how this evening wo
His Reluctant Bride PA Meeting

This was getting annoying.“Aren’t you going to get that?” Meghan asked as she sipped from her Ice Americano.Aira still had no Ides how her friend could stomach that stuff.

Or was it someone new?” Meghan asked“It was my brother,” Aira responded, “He wants to talk about something, but I don’t feel like hearing his lecture about Vincent. I’m going to have to put up with it enough when I have to tell him that we’re engaged,”“I don’t see any ring, when did you get engaged?” Meghan asked jokingly and Aira threw her a glare.She was strung up enough without her friend mercilessly teasing her.“He’s picking it up today. You know how observant Paul can be, We can’t meet him without covering our bases.”“He is. Damn him. Last summer all he could talk about was how plump I looked after the few pounds I
