The Wounded Love novel Chapter 81

"Good boy." I kissed his cheek and sent him off with my mother, his nightmare.

The wedding was small with only a handful of friends and family. I was surprised that my mom was actually okay with it.

Dante seemed to be more exhausted than I was during my third trimester which was around the same time that he got stuck with Mom.

"You good, babe?" I asked as he collapsed onto the bed one night.

"No." He whined. "She is insane, Skyla? She made a man cry! He cried! I have never seen a six foot three man who works in a slaughterhouse cry!"

"Why were you in a slaughterhouse?" I asked, rolling over so that I was the big spoon and he was the little spoon. My belly got in the way of it being comfortable though.

Dante turned around and laid his head on my chest as I stroked his hair. He ran his hand up and down my stomach as he spoke. "I don't know! We were at a dress place, then we were tasting cakes, and then she wanted to make sure that the steak option was going to be fresh. Your mother is crazy, Skyla!" He pretended to cry.

After many torturous weeks for my fiance, the wedding finally rolled around. We had a small outdoor ceremony in a park upstate and then a perfectly planned reception at a hall afterwards. It was open bar thanks to my dad, who surprisingly loved Dante.

"You got a good one, Sky." He said to me the night before the wedding. "Much better than that Nick you were with," Way to be sensitive to my dead ex-boyfriend, Dad. "This one is a real man with real values. He's good for you."

Silvio however, did not come. He wasn't even invited partly due to the fact that he didn't know about the baby. He would have to know eventually though considering the weight that came with the Di Stefano name, but we decided to wait as long as possible.

Everyone asked about Dante's family, and each time he responded with, "This is my family", referring to me, my belly, Sean, Susan, and even Jade.

My dress had to be specially made because my stomach was huge and round while the rest of me, aside from my breasts remained the same, size wise.
