Dmitri didn’t say a word as he loaded the bags into the back of his SUV. His mother was quiet and his father seemed almost smug as Dmitri silently fumed. Luckily, Penny had the presence of mind to keep her mouth shut, following behind them without saying a word.

By the time they were on the way to the hotel he’d booked them at, Dmitri was positive he was going to have a stroke because his blood pressure had to be through the stratosphere.

“I don’t know what kind of game you’re playing,” he said, looking at Penny through the rearview mirror, “but it’s not going to work.”

“But your dad said—” she began.

“Skase.” Be quiet. Antoni’s growl had the desired effect.

“Oh, no, please, tell me what my dad said.” It didn’t seem possible, but Dmitri was even more furious knowing his father had orchestrated this.

“She’s pregnant,” his father responded immediately. “You have to do right by her.”

“She wasn’t faithful to me,” he said slowly. “She lied, cheated and embarrassed our family but because she’s Greek, that’s okay. Sorry, Baba, but I’m not a kid anymore. I can make my own decisions and I decided back in September that there’s nothing left between Penny and I.”

“Except a baby,” she muttered.

“I was careful,” Dmitri shot back. “I know we didn’t have an accident so forgive me if I don’t trust that it’s mine.”

“You’re a soulless jerk,” she said angrily, folding her arms across her chest. “This is why I cheated on you.”

The silence in the car was palpable but Dmitri just chuckled. “There you go, Baba—that’s the type of woman you want me to marry? No thanks.”

No one said anything else the rest of the way to the hotel and they were still quiet as they unpacked the bags and had a bell hop take them up to the room.

“Is she staying with you?” Dmitri asked his father. “Because I’m not getting her a room and she’s sure as hell not staying with me.”

“Dad!” Penny looked distressed now, fixing Antoni with a look of frustration.

“Come,” he said shortly. “There’s a couch in the suite.”

“I’ll pick you up for dinner at six,” Dmitri said. “And she’s not invited.”

Without another word, he kissed his mother on the cheek, got back in his SUV and headed towards Brock and Ashleigh’s.
