I immediately moved away from him as I felt tension buildup in my body. For the first time in a long time, I felt an instant arousal. Marcus stopped trying to touch me for a long time because we were both tired of trying to have a child and I was okay with it. I had lost my nerves and it felt like my body couldn't respond to sexual sensations any more but with Dante, just his voice in my ears did a whole lot to me that I couldn't explain.
"Thank you", I said with a smile.
"This necklace is really beautiful, thanks"
"I just thought it would complement your dress quite well and I wasn't wrong. It's perfect" Dante said as we walked out of my apartment.
I had barely lived there for a whole week and I felt like I was leaving a part of me behind.
The drive to Dante's house was short and I was amazed by the structure he lived in. A massive penthouse with exquisite luxurious furniture and decorations. Dante's mom was waiting for us by the time we got there.
"Hey mom", Dante said and made his way to give his mother a hug but she shrugged him off and came straight up to hug me instead.
"I'm so glad you're finally here. Feels like the daughter I never got had finally arrived", Mrs Abigail said as she hugged me tightly.
"I made dinner already, both of you should go and freshen up very quickly and join me at the dinner table", Mrs Abigail instructed.
Dante led me up to the bedroom we would both be sharing and it was indeed very massive.
"Nothing to worry about I'll be sleeping on the couch over there, you can have the bed all to yourself" he said.
He took off his coat and began to undress and I became uncomfortable. He took off all his clothes and was left with just his briefs on. His body was a sight for sore eyes but I didn't stare, that would be awkward. I did notice the huge bulge in his briefs though and that stuck in my head.
He went into the bathroom to shower. While I waited for him to be done, I scrolled through the pictures of us that were already buzzing on social media and we looked really good together, there was no way anybody would be able to tell that this marriage was all an act. We were the picture perfect couple.
Dante got out of the shower with a towel wrapped around his waist. Water droplets were all over his body and his hair was dripping, the curls were so defined and everything about him seemed just so perfect.
I got into the shower after him taking all my clothes that I would change into with me. I was way too shy to undress in front of him and he didn't say anything about it. I had my bath and we both got ready to head down to dinner with his mom.
"Wait Sienna, I have something to say," Dante said, pulling me back into the room.
My heart began to race instantly. My mind started racing with thoughts. "What could he possibly want to say?" I thought to myself.
"I think we should tell my mom about your pregnancy", he said.
I was definitely expecting him to say something else but nevermind, my delusions were just too alive.
"Soon you'll have a bump and I think we might just tell her about the pregnancy now so she knows and can take care of you as you would require, I'm sure you've never been pregnant before and you'd need a lot of assistance", Dante said.
"Oh- well, that's really thoughtful of you. I do agree with you, I think it's right to tell her" I responded.
"I'm the father", Dante blurted.
"But-"
He cut my words out before I could even finish. "We don't need to give her any details, you're pregnant for me and that's fine. Only we both know the truth. Is that okay?"
"Yes it's okay" I responded with a smile.
We joined Mrs Abigail at the table and the food was really amazing. I realized I was a bad cook, cause my casseroles were never half as good as the meal I was having. And usually I wasn't really a fan of casseroles but I enjoyed every bit of the meal. Since the pregnancy, my food preferences have changed a lot.
"Mom, Sienna and I have news for you", Dante said as we rounded up our meal.
"What is it son?"Mrs Abigail asked.
"We're having a baby, Sienna here is pregnant", Dante announced.
"Oh my," Mrs Abigail said as she immediately got off her seat to come and give me a hug.
"I'm so happy for the both of you", she said, holding both our hands.
"You both are going to be really great parents".
At that moment, I wished it was Marcus with me. I wish I could share these moments with him. My mind went adrift to when we would talk about what we would do when I get pregnant and have our own baby but life had taken its course. Even though this marriage with Dante was all fake, at least I was genuinely at peace with myself.
We went back to the bedroom to get some rest.
"Here you go", I said, throwing a pillow and a blanket at Dante.
"Wait what? Why?he asked, perplexed.
"You said you'd be sleeping on the couch, remember?" I responded with a sassy attitude
He threw the pillow back at me and we got into a pillow fight, tossing pillows back and forth at each other and then I accidentally threw the pillow too hard at him, his hand flipped over to a glass vase on the stool beside him and it broke.
I was worried for him and I felt really bad, he got a cut on his hand. I immediately rushed to him to take a look at his hand.
"Are you good? Is it bad?"I asked as I held his hand and used a piece of cloth to wrap it up before I could go to search for a first aid kit.
