"I'm nervous, I'm practically meeting your family," Mercedes tells him as her left leg begins to shake and her hand fiddles with one another.

"You'll be fine, they're going to like you. Plus they'll be too busy getting on my nerves to even worry about you." Alexei assures her.

"Okay," Mercedes says as she let out a deep breath.

Alexei parks in the driveway behind three other cars. He turns to his right and notices a pout on Mercedes's lips. He tsk as he grips her chin and makes her look up at him.

"You'll be fine Mercedes." He tells her.

She nods as Alexei pulls his hand back. She takes off the seatbelt before opening the door. Mentally, she tries to calm herself down. Alexei gets out of the car as well and walks to Mercedes. He wraps placed his arms around her waist before gently pulling her close to him.

"You look beautiful." He compliments her.

Mercedes wears a red dress with a cut on the side revealing her legs with black heels. She blushes at his compliment and smile.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome." He says before grabbing her hand.

Every time he touches her small and soft hands he always felt the tingles from them. And damn did he love it. He just wanted to hold them forever.

They walk up to the grand doors before Alexei knocks. Mercedes grip his hand tight as she moves closer to him. When the door opens a little boy wearing a black suit smiles at them. With two front teeth missing Mercedes gives him a big smile.

"You're so adorable."

Before the little boy responds a woman comes and shooing the boy away. She comes to the front of the door with a smile. As she looks up, she gasps loudly as her eyes fall on Alexei. She wears a dark red shade of lipstick to match her red strapped dress. She throws her arms around Alexei giving him a big hug.

Alexei groans slightly at the affection and embarrassment. He awkwardly taps her back as Mercedes chuckles at how adorable he looks. The woman pulls away and sighs loudly.

"You're here! I haven't seen you in months, and you bought a date? Is this the girl Damien told us about?" The lady questions him.

Alexei clears his throat.

"Mercedes this is my cousin's wife, Natasha. Natasha this is my girlfriend, Mercedes."

"Girlfriend? I thought I would never see the day. You two come in, we were just getting the kids to settle down." The woman smiles as she let them in.

Mercedes looks around the mansion. She wondered if all of Alexei's family was wealthy. Her thoughts get pulled away when a bunch of kids run past her screaming in Russian. They follow the woman into the living room where all of Alexei's cousins were. In total it was eight of them. Six were his cousin and the other two were their significant others.

Damien's eyes lift to see Alexei and Mercedes. Standing up he shouts something in Russian making Alexei groan once again. Alexei walks up to them, giving his family hugs. Mercedes stands there watching him greet his family.

"Is this the girlfriend?" A woman asks as her eyes find Mercedes.

Alexei goes to Mercedes and holds her hands, mostly for Mercedes's sake.

"Mercedes, this is my cousin. Everyone this Mercedes, my girlfriend." Alexei introduces her.

"I thought the rumors weren't true. And she's beautiful, you lucky bastard." A man speaks making the other laugh.

"Girlfriend or not, you still sit at the kids' table." Another man speaks making them laugh once more.

"You're the youngest?" Mercedes asks him.

"Well, since you're here I'm not technically." He tells her.

"Another woman, finally, Natasha and Anastasia can get so annoying." The woman says wearing her pantsuit. Her accent is thick like the rest.

Natasha rolls her eyes as the woman walks up to Mercedes. "I'm Nadia, come with us, we can have girl talk." She says grabbing Mercedes's wrist before taking her to the bar. The other two women follow behind them leaving the men by themselves.

"What I told you, Simeon, he's finally growing up," Damien says to the man beside him.

They all resemble each other in some way. You can mostly tell that they're all relative. Especially with their dark brown hair and dark brown eyes to match along with their sharp jawline. The difference between Simeon was the fact that he was more muscular than everyone else.

"Alexei, does your father know about her? You never had a woman you fuck more than once let alone a girlfriend." Simeon asks in Russian.

"He doesn't need to know," Alexei replies.

"Same old Alexei, you should come back here tomorrow. We haven't seen you since you came here."

"I don't know, Alexei is a taken man now. He'll probably be too busy enjoying his morning with his girlfriend than his family now." His cousin, Adrik jokes.

Alexei sighs as he glances over at Mercedes. On the way here she was too busy getting all nervous and now she looks like she having a great time already.

"I'll come to visit tomorrow. If the kids are not here."

"You still have a phobia about kids? You have a girlfriend now, one day you might have your own." Damien tells him.

"That day won't come soon."

"Let's hope that would never happen, not only will your father find out you have a girlfriend but a kid on the way. He might kill you." Adrik says before taking a sip of his beer.

"Imagine Alexei with a child. The funniest shit I could ever see." Simeon laughs.

"Remember when Anna was born, he couldn't even hold her without him about to faint," Damien remembers making them all laugh except for Alexei.

It was almost too painful to remember. They all trying to get him to hold the two month year babe just for him to back up until he fell on the floor. Alexei rolls his eyes as they all laugh.
