A Vow So Beautiful - Chapter 77

A house was not a home without her beast. Bailey never returned from what, could be her busy affairs from the Iron Horse. Cleo left to tend to his beloved cats. That left only Prisana alone in this large modern mansion. She plopped herself onto the bed after a long day of orientation.

She didn’t even realize but she kept smiling, recalling how she was able to exchange numbers with a few of her upcoming classmates. This was only the first university she explored and yet her heart knew it was the one. Her giddy excitement took over and she fumbled for Dane’s number.

The call went straight to voicemail.

God, how she missed her beast. The bed was lonely. She was lonely. Prisana tossed and turned and before she knew it, Dane had appeared before her.

Her beast of a husband was standing there in front, fully naked. She seized his glorious chest muscles and those perky nipples, like a lynx ready to pounce at any moment.

Dane, you’re back?

He walked over to her like clouds drifting on by, ushering him to her until they were locked into a lover’s embrace.

I’m back, lynx.

Dane! I’ve missed you.

And I, missed you so terribly too.

Dane would choose that perfect moment to kiss her. He would then undoubtedly growled into her mouth as the kiss turned more hungry.

Lynx. It’s been way too long. Let me have my way with you. I won’t take no for an answer.

Why must you always ask? There’s no need to ask when I’m already yours.

Like always, her beast crept his hand along her body until it reached her most sensitive area.

*Ring Ring

*Ring Ring

Prisana opened her eyes, wide. Her cheeks flushed because between her thighs, was something wet of desire. She looked to the side to see and hear her phone ringing. There could be only one person calling. The caller ID read Hubby <3.

Dane!

She fumbled for her phone, “Dane?”

“Prisana. Turn on the tv.”

“The tv…Why?”

“Please, just do it. It’s serious. I want you to check the weather for me.”

Prisana wanted to keep questioning further but she gave in to the beast and his silly demand. She reached for the remote and turned on the tv. What greeted her on the other side of the screen was the night sky sparkling with a million twinkling stars. Large tall buildings spanning acres after acres filled her vision.

“I keep pressing buttons but I can’t seem to get to the forecast channel.”

His chuckle sounded like melodic waves going through her ears. “That is the weather. So, how’s it like?”

“…It’s beautiful Dane. The weather looks magical. I wish you could see it too.”

All of a sudden, the tv angles began to flip and turned around to what looked like her husband and beast! He was clad in a light blue robe that perfectly outlined his large feral body with those glorious chest muscles peeking out from underneath.. His dashing smirk caught her off guard.

It was almost unreal how the man on tv looked like Dane. She shook her head in disbelief.

“Oh but I can see the same view. Nothing is as beautiful as you, Prisana.”

Prisana almost dropped her phone. She gasped and a tear slid from the corner of her eye.

“Prisana! What’s wrong?”

She picked up her phone again. “I’m…so happy. Today has truly been a gift. I made new friends and got to see that face of yours I adore so much…Wait. How are we even seeing each other?”

“It’s ‘magic’,” he mocked her words earlier with a smile. “Kidding. I had Cleo install the video cam when you left for orientation. How was it, by the way? The orientation.”

Surely Dane wouldn’t be too happy some boys asked her for a number and then an attractive vigilante came to save the day, who…Prisana now realized Theodore’s number was in her phone. Yet, it wasn’t like she was hiding anything. She shouldn’t continue to hide it either.

“The orientation was wonderful. I met some new friends and even exchanged contact numbers with them.”

There was silence on the other end before he responded something like, “That’s great.”

Prisana decided to test her beast’s limits. “One of them is a boy.”

From the screen, she could see his expression darken but he sighed it away.

“I know what you’re scheming, lynx.”

“You’re not jealous? Not even a little?”

“Not at all.”

“What?”

The beast grinned wholeheartedly while tenderly leaning his face against the palm of his hand, “I trust you.”

Those simple words made her happy yet guilty, more so because she was even trying to start something with him. She just wanted to see him get riled up but he already knew what game she was trying to play at. It seemed like her plan had failed so she pouted.

“Jealousy in a man is kind of hot, you know…Well, to some extent.”

“I don’t deserve jealously. If I were any other man, I’d be floored and yearning for you. How could I criticize another who I’d understand.”

“So…You’d let this same boy flirt with me and call me cute?”

“On second thought, delete his number.”

“He’s harmless! Okay, putting away me trying to get a jealous reaction out of you, Theodore is just my group leader who like everyone else today, made me feel insanely welcomed. Dane, I think I want to go to XXX University.”

“That’s honestly, all I want. For you to be happy and enjoy your youth. I’m glad you’ve made the choice.”

“Aw, Dane…”

“Look lynx. Let’s set some things straight here. It’s alright to recieve compliments and talk to other men. I won’t control your every damn move like your father or that bastard Giovanni. Jealousy is jealousy. It might happen to the worst of us but at the end of the day, we belong to each other and I trust that you cherish me enough to not cross that line.”

Who was this Dane?

From the beginning of time when they met, she would have never imagined him saying these words. He was bulldozing so far into her heart that she had no room for any other. God, this beast was as sweet as his words.

“…Credit is due.”

“What does that mean?”

She rolled onto her side to stare at him sideways, giggling like a maiden.

“Congratulations! You win the award for being the best beast and husband. Your reward? A kiss from yours truly awaiting your arrival. Heh. Come back home soon, hmm?”

“If you beg for it cutely, I might really consider it.”

She thought his words to be a joke and cutely squished her face to him at the screen, earning a rough chuckle from him.

“Oh pretty beast, please? I’ll die of heartbreak if you take any longer than tomorrow.”

“That does it. You’re too cute for your own good!” he almost entirrely growled this. “Be prepared. I’ll be taking the earliest flight I can.”

“Okay. I’ll be in bed waiting for your return darling.”

“You do know I’m serious, do you?”

Prisana sat upright in bed, her excitement unable to contain itself. She shook her head in disbelief once again.

“No way.”

Dane was silent for a few moments as she saw him pull away from the phone and type furiously for a minute or so. He showed the phone to the screen, with flight details heading straight for New Jersey first thing in the morning. Her beast wasn’t playing around!

“Yes way.”

“W-What about work?”

“…I’ve finished everything I needed to do here. Now, I need to come back and…do you. I’ve been abstaining for way too long.”

Suddenly, Prisana felt guilty. She could still feel the wetness in between her thighs and rubbed it together as her cheeks flushed.

“There is one confession I have to make…”

“I might have not abstained and cheated on you, just a little.”
