Just wanna say, your comments on the last chapter had me WEEZING!!!

May I look over at Mateo and he looks at me, I signal him to sit next to Morgan and he does. Morgan looks at me and mouths 'sorry', I just give her a small nod and start to walk over to my seat, my heals clicking being the only sound as everything else dies down.

"Hello" I say while tapping Jenny on the shoulder "hello" I say again

I look across the table and see her- and Morgan's- parents looking at the situation in pure horror, they know their daughter had messed up. Big time.

"Can I help you" Jenny finally says, looking at me with innocent eyes

"You seem to be in my seat" I tell her in a calm voice, but baby, I am anything but calm, dam these pregnancy hormones .

"Oh" she says while looking down and around herself "I didn't know this seat was taken, I just sat down in the first seat I saw.

"Huh" I say while ticking my tongue "so you just skipped the empty seat, 4 seats down closer to the door?"

"Why it seam I did, you wouldn't mind taking it would you" now everyone is silent and nobody dares to talk

"Now now Jenny, this is your sister and my brother-in-laws night. We wouldn't want to make it about you now would we?" I saw in a motherly tone while I tilt my head

"For god sakes Jennifer, move" a woman says- I presume her mother.

"And why should I"

"Because I would rather have my wife sit next to my children and I, than a woman I barley know" Ace says, finally.

"Barley know me?! We have slept together multiple times Ace, you know me!" She yells

I literally hear Vincent and Silas saying 'oooo' in their heads- those two are such suckers for gossip, they are like old Mexican grandmas to be honest

"Move. Now." Ace says in a low voice

"No!"

"Jenny, please just let me have a night, why does everything have to be about you! My god!" Morgan says from the top of the table, not too far down from us.

"F*ck off Morgan, why do you always have to butt in!" Jenny yells again

"Never, and I mean ever talk to my fiancé like that, sister or not, you will show this family respect or you will be taken out" Mateo says, now standing up

"Why can't you just love me Ace! Why be with one woman, I'm fine with being number 2 behind her, I'm fine with being a side chick!" She says

"God your hysterical" I say

"Shut up, I will still drag you pregnant and all!"

"Drag me Monique! Drag me!" If you know, you know

"My name isn't f*cking Monique!" Jenny yells

I look at Ace and he looks at me with anger in his eyes, not for me, but for her

"Mateo" he says, not even looking at his brother

"Coraggio [go for it]" he says back

"Portala fuori [Take her out]" Ace says in a strait tone to the guards and within seconds the bratty woman is taken out of my chair and walked out of the room.

"Now" I say as I sit down "let's forget about this and go back to enjoying and understanding why we are here today, for Mateo and Morgan, we are all very proud and happy for you two. May this marriage be as fruitful and full as the bowl that Stella always keeps in the kitchen" with that everyone laughs and we all go back to having a good time, see, I can change a room ;)

"So" I say to Ace "how long were you gonna wait until you took her out?"

"Goodness my love, I wasn't gonna wait, if it weren't for the fact that she was the bride-to-be's sister, I would have killed her for sitting in my queens chair and having that kind of attitude with you"

"Well, I'm glad there was no blood shed on this joyest day"

"Very true" he says and gives my head another kiss, "shall we eat?"

"Yes, I'm very hungry" and with that we all dig in

——————————————————————- 4 months later; just like I said before, there will be random time jumps😊

May "MAMA" I hear Nicolas scream

Instantly I turn away from the veggies I was cutting and run into the living room

I hear another scream "MAMA" but this time it's from Roman

"What, what!" I say still running, and quite frankly, out of breath

"Manolo (Ma-No-Lo) is crying" he says again

I finally make it to the living room, all the boys are in it watching cartoons, while Manolo, our youngest is in a crib sleeping-or was sleeping.

Manolo was born a month ago, he was a late baby, 1 week late, and let me tell you, I HATED that. I was ready to have him out of me, but he had other plans. Rude.

"If he cry's, don't yell, okay. Just come and get me, screaming makes him cry more"

"Sorry mama" they all say, but not one of them takes their eyes off the tv. I blame Ace.

I walk over to the crib and take out Manolo, "hey baby, mama's here, let's check your diaper sweetheart" and of course, it's dirty, I lay him on the couch and change him, I always have a prepared diaper bag next to all of his cribs.

Once I'm done with that, he still cry's "are you hungry baby?" Of course he doesn't answer, but I begin to feed him anyways

I sit on the coach with the other kids and Theo moves over to make room for me, "thank you" I say to him "mmhhh" is all he says

I bring down my shirt to feed and as if he read my mind, Oliver hands me a thin blanket so I can cover up, what a kind little boy I raised "thank you love" I say to him "mmmhhh" are you serious?!

"Boys" I say, they all look at me "what do we say when someone tells us thank you?"

"Your welcome" Roman says

"Correct, if you know that, then say it. Understand." I mainly look at both Theo and Oliver, they all shake their heads "okay" I say. And they all turn back to the show on the tv.

After a bit of relaxing, yes, every time you get to sit down as a parent is a rare moment, anyways, Ace finally got home.

"Hey fiore, how was your day?" He says, coming into the kitchen to kiss me, I have Manolo wrapped into a baby carrier on my front side so he kisses his head as well.

"It was fine, I woke up, took the older boys to school, then came back home and put Manolo down for a nap while the twins colored and I did some laundry"

"You know we have maids for that, right?"

"Yah, but I wanted a special shirt and it was dirty, and I didn't want to bother anyone"

"Love, your not a bother, that's what we pay them for"

"I know I know, anyways, the 3 boys and I just hung out until 2 and then we went to pick up Theo and Roman from school. We got home, they did homework and then they all sat down to watch cartoons while I made dinner"

"Sounds like and eventful day my love"

"It was"

"Do you want me to take the baby?" He says, reaching for Manolo

"Yes please"

Ace took him and went to the room to change into some comfy clothes, I called the boys down to eat and they running like a pack of wild ducks- those things are vicious

"Thank you mama"

"The food was very good mama"

"Mmmmm"

"Great dinner love"

Was what I was told once everyone had eaten, well, everyone but Manolo, he was gonna eat later.

After that, we all went to bed, but tonight was different, it was a rainy night with thunder, so as expected, like every night before that resembled this one, the boys came back to my room.

First the Roman, then Oliver, 5 minutes later Nicolas came in, and lastly Theo.

We were all huddled up in bed, and Ace was in the office so he had no clue-he's in for a treat.

"Alright, bed time with my sex-" he stopped mid sentence once he saw all the kids in our bed and as if on cue, Manolo started to cry.

"Can you get him please? And check if he has a wet diaper"

"Yah yah" and with that he left to get the last little member to our family.

5 minutes later Ace came back with a irritated Manolo in hand "I changed him, but he's hungry"



"Give him here" I say as I reach out for him

Once Manolo is safely in my arms Ace goes to get into bed, all the boys shift and eventually he settles in and I turn off the light but leave a small, dim one on because I'm breastfeeding.

"Good night boys, sleep well, I love you all"

"Good nigh mama" they all say, even Ace, but he says it in a mocking way.

"Night night"
