I wake up and groaned. Gosh, it feels like I've been drinking last night. I close my eyes again as flashes came back from last night.

I was to shock to say anything after Stefano announced our engagement last night. Soon after his speech, people came up to us to congratulate us and still I didn't say anything, because I didn't wanna cause a scene infront of everyone. Stefano excused himself after that, saying that he needs to talk to Diablo and Mia. He left me standing there with his parents and some of the guest, so I was happy when I saw Luke making his way towards me.

"Did you know anything like this was gonna happen tonight," he asked me and I shake my head. "Well, I'm happy for you Mona and I hope for the best for both of you. You deserve to be loved, so I hope that you will give Stefano a chance to show his true feelings to you." I smiled at him then and he pulled me in his arms to hug me. "Congratulations to the both of you," Luke whispers.

"What the hell is going on here," we heard Stefano's voice and we jump apart. "I was just congratulating Mona on her engagement to you," Luke says. "Oh, is this the new way to congratulate someone by whispering in her ear with your arms around her." Why is Stefano so mad all of a sudden, we didn't do anything wrong. "Stefano, we did nothing wrong and I think you owe Luke an apology." He snorts. "Why should I be the one to apologise, he was the one having his arms around my future wife."

Do you think I would have an affair with another man right under your parents roof. I'm not a damn slut Stefano, so you better apologise to him right now or else you can take your ring and shove it." He looked at me in shock. "You wouldn't dare breaking things off with me." Oh cocky much, isn't he. I lift my hand and went for my ring, but he stops me. "What are you doing dammit," he roared out. I look around and saw that we have a small audience, including his parents.

"Stefano, I'm not gonna ask you again to apologize to Luke." I see him looking at Luke and Luke on the other hand was standing with a smile on his face. "I'm sorry," he mumbled. "Sorry, did you say anything," Luke asked him. "I'm sorry ok, but Mona is mine." As he said those words, he pulled me into his arms. Well, that's the best apology anyone would get from Stefano. "No harm done and to set the record straight, Mona and Mia are both like sisters to me, so you have nothing to worry about."

Later that night Stefano offered to take me home and I didn't object to it, because I needed to discuss a few things with him. We stopped at my apartment and he followed me inside, but before I could say anything, he took me in his arms and kissed me urgently and of course one thing led to another and we ended up making love. Now I lay in bed and wondered what happened to Stefano.

I look around the room and grabbed shorts and a t-shirt from a chair in my room and walked to the kitchen, then froze in my tracks. "What are you still doing here, I thought you have left last night," I said to Stefano as I see him busy making breakfast. He smirked while checking me out and I could feel myself blush.

"Good morning to you too sweetheart. Now come sit down and have some breakfast first, then we can talk afterwards." I sit down and my mouth watered when I look down at my plate, so I started eating. "Where's Mia," I asked after a while, because I haven't seen her yet. Stefano came and sit down opposite me and takes my hand in his.

"Mia has spend the night with Diablo and they will be here later when Diablo brings his things over." I look at Stefano confused. "Why would Diablo bring his things over." Stefano coughs lightly and looks at me. "Mona, I spoke to Diablo and Mia last night, because I want you to move in with me, Diablo will move in with Mia so that she's not on her own." 

I pulled my hand from his and got up furiously. "You had no right to go behind my back and do these things. I told you before Stefano, I'm not getting married for the baby's sake, so you can forget about it, because I'm not moving." Stefano got up as well and came around the table. "Look Mona, I won't force you into anything. Move in with me until the baby is born and if you decide that you still don't wanna get married, then I'll move out of the house, but please, give me a chance to proof to you I have changed."
