My Italian Monster

Chapter 16

Writer's POV

Everyone was currently sitting at the dining table. Leandro was busy manipulating his phone, not paying attention to what everyone was talking about.

Emeliano said something funny and Kayleigh laughed, making Leandro look at her. He couldn't help but stare at her.

Kayleigh had that feeling that somebody had been staring at her. She looked at Leandro and met with his beautiful, but cold eyes.

Leandro winked at her and Kayleigh stopped laughing, narrowing her eyes. He smirked, finally looking away.

The door bell interrupted everyone's conversations. Valaria went to go answer the door. After a few seconds she came back with a man behind her.

Leandro, Lorenzo and Emeliano froze as they saw him. All the bodyguards were silent, not saying a single word.

Kayleigh was confused. She looked at the man standing next to Valaria and wondered who he was to these people. But he sure as hell smelled power.

"Aren't you boys going to greet me?" He asked with a smile. An amazing smile.

Woah! Kayleigh thought as she saw him smile. She instantly knew where Leandro and Lorenzo got their good looks.

Emeliano cleared his throat. "Uncle Santi, hey."

Lorenzo was the first one to stand up amd greet his uncle. He smiled a little and held out his hand for his uncle to shake. His uncle looked at his hand and slapped it away, pulling him in for a hug.

Lorenzo chuckled. "Hey, uncle Santi. How have you been?"

"Well, I've never been better. My sons are back home to visit me and my other son is coming back home in three days." He said, chuckling.

"The boys are back?" Emeliano asked.

"Yep."

Santiago looked at his other nephew, Leandro. Leandro was still sitting, looking at his plate of food. Santiago cleared his throat and Leandro looked at him.

"Aren't you going to come say hello to your uncle, Leandro?" He asked.

Leandro glanced at Kayleigh before getting up. He looked at his uncle and nodded. His uncle pulled him in for a hug.

"Hey, uncle Santi." Leandro said.

Santiago pulled away when he saw Kayleigh, and Leandro froze. Santiago stared at Kayleigh for a little. Kayleigh shifted uncomfortably in her seat.

"Who is this?" Santiago asked, still looking at Kayleigh.

The boys looked at each other and said "Our friend."

Santiago looked at them. "And what's your friend's name?" He asked.

"Kayleigh..." Leandro said.

Santiago looked at Kayleigh, narrowing his eyes. "Kayleigh." He called out to her.

"Yes, sir?"

"Are they really your friends?"

Kayleigh looked at the boys and saw how nervous they were. She smirked a little before replying. "No, sir."

Lorenzo closed his eyes and shook his head. Emeliano gulped. Leandro took a deep breath.

"Did they kidnap you?" Santiago asked.

She shook her head. "No, sir, they didn't kidnap me." She said.

The boys sighed in relief, but she wasn't done.
