A few more month went by and I'm nearly eight month pregnant. We didn't wanna know the sex of the baby before the time, so it could be a surprise to everyone.
I'm sitting in the rocking chair while looking around the baby's room and rubbed my hands over my swollen belly, then smiled. "I can't wait to have you in my arms my sweet love. Just think of all the things we will do together as you grow older," I whispered to my baby. Just then, a shadow fell over me and I looked up to see Stefano looking down at me with longing in his eyes, so I reached out and pulled him closer, but he went down on his knees infront of me instead and reached out to my swollen belly.
I hear him mumbling something in Italian to our baby, but unfortunately I never got to those books I purchased before, so I didn't understand everything he said. I marveled in the feelings I get while his hands move over my belly and as I feel the soft kisses where his hands was moments ago, I moaned out his name.
He pulled me up and our lips joined together in a heated kiss until we both ran out of breath and looked at each other with smoldering eyes. "Mona, I want you so damn much, but don't wanna risk you walking out on me again, that's why I kept my distance this last few month, but I'm willing to wait until you ready to come to me. I know in the beginning I've stuffed up a lot, but you have changed me and I want you to spend the rest of your life with me." I look into his eyes. "Stefano, what are you saying."
He takes his hands and put it on my shoulders. "Mona, I don't want you to leave me after the baby is born. I want you to be part of my life, so we can see our baby growing up together, but the main reason why I want you to stay, is because I'm in love with you. I want to take you in my arms and make love to you all night, but I'm scared that I might hurt you or our b...."
I put my finger on his lips and whisper, "you talk to much Mister De Luca," before kissing him with all the love I feel for him. "Let me show you that its perfectly fine to make love while I'm pregnant," I whispered to him and pulled him to our room where I strip down infront of him. For some reason I've lost all my shyness towards him. He growls out when I pushed him down on the bed as I moved over his body.
I woke up in the morning and stretched my body out, then remembered what happened last night. Did Stefano really confessed his love to me last night. I turn and caught him looking at me, so I blushed. "Morning sleepyhead," he whispers to me and I smiled. We lied in bed for a while, then got up to shower and walked down the steps hand in hand a short while later.
Over breakfast, Stefano told me that he and Diablo have to go away on business for a day or two, but he is worried to leave me on my own. "I'm just scared that you will go into early labour or something goes wrong while I'm out of town." I take his hand in mine. "Stefano, nothing will go wrong and I still have a month before giving birth, anyway, I have all the guards who's keeping me safe and Miss Hayward, but if Diablo goes with you, why don't I just ask Mia to come over for a few days."
He nods his head and after breakfast I phoned Mia and she was more than happy to come over for a few days. I turned to Stefano. "Well, that's settled, Mia will put in a few days of leave to spend time with me, so go and pack your bag, the sooner you leave the sooner you will be back home." He pulled me into his arms and kissed me before going to our room.
Diablo dropped Mia off a few hours later and he left with Stefano for the airport. The moment the men walked out the door, Mia started asking questions and I told her everything what happened. I showed her to her room afterwards to freshen up and the rest of the day we've spend on catching up and eating everything in sight.
Later that evening we decided to watch some movies, because I was feeling to tired to do anything else. Stefano and Diablo phoned us about nine in the evening and it was while I was talking to Stefano that I felt something was off and when I look down at myself I saw it....blood. "Stefano, I don't mean to alert you, but something is wrong." In the next instance a sharp pain goes through my back and I screamed, which alerts everyone in the house. The phone was taken from my hand by one of the guards and I heard him talking to Stefano.
Mia came running in and took charge immediately, shouting out orders to get me to the closest bedroom, which was thankfully downstairs. "Mia, I'm scared, I don't wanna loose my baby," I cried out and felt another pain. "You not gonna loose this baby, Mona, I wont let it happen. Lie down and try to relax, your doctor should be here any time now."
A few minutes later my doctor walked in and chased everyone from the room, except for Mia. After a quick examination, she looks at me. "Mona, I'm afraid we have to deliver this baby now or neither of you will stand a chance and you loosing to much blood." I nod while tears ran down my face. Damn, these pains are killing me. The last thing I remember was her barking orders before I blacked out.
