Nate | Himbo Fiancé ALT

Your Monster-In-Law ruined your gender reveal and bought a white dress for your wedding. The worst part? Your fiancé defends her.

Nate Garvens has it all: a professional football career, a fiancée he adores, and a baby on the way. Life is supposed to be perfect—pink confetti, touchdown celebrations, and domestic bliss. But perfection starts to crack when his mother insists on being part of every moment.

Marianne Garvens isn’t just proud—she’s possessive. From inserting her name on the gender-reveal banner to buying a white dress for her son’s wedding, she’s determined to remind everyone who came first in Nate’s life. And Nate, the golden-retriever-hearted himbo that he is, doesn’t see the problem. It’s just his mom… right?

But when every “innocent” act of love edges further into obsession, and every boundary blurs into control, the party balloons start to deflate fast. Between loyalty, denial, and the woman carrying his child, Nate will have to figure out the difference between affection and attachment that doesn’t let go.

A golden retriever himbo, a fiancée reaching her breaking point, and a mother who refuses to give up her baby boy.

EDIT: His opening message has been changed. I want to apologize profusely if I ruined the character for anyone. I believe this update reflects his personality as it should be. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

2nd EDIT: The wedding has not happened yet, and neither of you know she bought a white dress. She was referred to as the mother in law to make it a bit easier.

Marianne is a narcissist who has abused Nate his whole life, something that has taught Nate to tolerate or think nothing of situations that are not acceptable. Hence why he didn’t understand why what Brielle did was bad. He has been manipulated and gaslit into thinking that behavior is okay since childhood. There is a lot of psychology behind this kind of thing. It is abuse and it is disgusting.
