A Vow So Beautiful - Chapter 90
Prisana immediately jumped up from his arms and sat upright to search his eyes. Their bodies were still connected so this small and innocent movement made her beast flinch. The lynx flinched herself as she detached herself from him which earned a slight frown on his part but it faded away. She was staring at him with the most roundish sparkling eyes that even made him chuckle.
“Really?” she asked him.
Her husband and beast took a long deep breath and met her unwavering gaze. “Yes, really.”
“…That work trip I went to, it actually had to do with my demons.”
This was it. More ugly yet beautiful truths would be shed by her beast. She patiently waited for him to speak as he stroked strands of her hair, as if trying to formulate his words.
“I went to look for a man. This scar on my forehead, I mentioned it came from a house fire. It was that same fire that killed my parents when I went in to search for them. My parents died from that ‘mysterious’ house fire but I know that there was something more to it. Something to do with my father. You see, he was a detective. I’m not sure if whoever went and did this silenced the whole police force but it was ruled as an accident. I couldn’t stand the injustice so by an means possible, I rose to fame and power and I went to California to find that man who used to work alongside my father to uncover more truths.”
There were these haunting shadows that almost scared her.
He sighed, “Prisana. The reason I need to win the public’s favor is because some bastard, I’m not sure if it’s your father…”
“Senator,” she quickly corrected him.
“I’m not sure if it’s the senator or some other damn politician but I think the person who murdered everything I knew and loved, is in that council.”
The senator was involved in this grand scheme of things that birth a man of revenge.
For some reason, it didn’t surprise her. The only thing that surprised her was that the world had to be as little just to be cruel on fate. Her own flesh and blood that raised her, could be the same exact monster which ruined this man she loved. Ruin everything that turned him into this vulnerable beast before her at this moment.
Rage boiled inside but even more, a feeling of uncertainty gnawed at her bones.
“Is it revenge?”
Dane turned away, as if to avoid the question both knew the answer to. “I’ll bring that person down, even if that means I’ll lose everything.”
“Even if you lose me?”
He met her sad gaze and she knew those pained eyes were torn. This was what he meant. Torn because of her.
“Lynx and dearest wife, falling in love was never in my plans. But you broke and crumbled my walls from existence. I’m torn because I never want to lose you and yet, I can’t let my family continue to suffer this injustice until I put their soul and mine to rest.”
She didn’t say anything for a long time. Both beast and lynx simply lay in each other’s arms, with Prisana mulling over every truth he shed to her. The love he had for her was great. She at least knew that much. But it was starting to seem as if his demons were greater than their vowed love. Even more, her heart was hurting so much for him.
Prisana imagined him being stripped from his parents without warning and without remorse. She imagined him all alone in those woods bent on revenge. He must have never truly mourned but hardened himself to become a walking revenge
Droplets of tears stained against his chest.
He grew flustered and nearly rolled off the bed from guilt at how he was unsure of to respond to her sorrows, “Prisana. What…”
She sniffled and nestled deeper against him. “It must have been so hard. Beast, you endured so much all alone. I hate that you had to go through something like that. But I’m here now. You’re not alone anymore. If it’s revenge you want, I’ll be there with you to lose everything. Where you go, I’ll follow.”
His arms tightly wrapped over her, so much that it felt as if she would break but then he sighed into her neck, tickling her skin. There was this powerful sensation that coursed through her as she returned his embrace, sucked in and lost to the world to forget about all worries that plagued them both.
To her, her husband and beast was ugly yet beautiful. He had his ugly side which pushed those he loved away and then, he even had this beautiful side which captured her heart endless times because only she truly knew how sweet he was. Bailey was right. She needed to give him her patience and in time, his love would fully blossom.
He already demonstrated he would strip himself down but until then, she would do the same and strip herself for this blinded revenge of his until he could see otherwise. For now she was content on how things were. Happiness never lasted long but in this very moment she wanted to believe that everything would eventually turn out okay.
“I don’t deserve such beautiful truths…Thank you, wife and dearest lynx,” he kissed the crevices of her hairline. “Where I go and where you follow, I promise that if it’s you and I, then we’ll surely conquer all.”
“I love you,” she whispered, wanting to cry all over again because he was too sweet for words.
Prisana blushed as she felt his cock harden against the entrance of her still soaked core as she lay on top of him. He sighed breathlessly and kissed her as if to confirm that he loved her too. When he twisted her so that she was urged sideways with a leg dangling over his shoulders, she shook her head because she could feel his cock pressing over her with the tip already sliding in and out.
The husband of a beast was almost never satisfied.
He was teasing her body yet begging with pleasure ridden eyes, “One more time?”
She turned away to refuse his kiss but he shrugged and went to sucking at the tender skin at her neck he bit on earlier.
“Nnh…No, I’m tired,” she lied because one more time usually result into a whole night of love making. “Don’t you have work tomorrow?”
“I’m my own boss. I can tell myself what to do.”
“Cleo would get angry with you. After all, you didn’t leave for work but on personal matters.”
“Let him be angry with me. Let me show you how much I love…” she found it cute that he had to look away from her. “…How much I adore you.”
Prisana chuckled and urged his face toward her with a hand. Now Dane was flushing with bright red cheeks. Perhaps, he still wasn’t used to professing his love in front of her. It was still fresh and new so she didn’t fault him. After all, women naturally had an easier time expressing their love than men did.
“So even the beast can act cute, hmm…Ah!”
She yelped out as his cock slowly invaded her insides in one swift thrust. It felt so good as she was still so sensitive from his sweet pounding moments earlier. Like the beast he was, he began to lick her calf. Dane even made it a point to bite at her skin once he withdrew and thrusted deep inside of her again.
Only when she oozed complete surrender, did he chuckle in return.
“Cute? I dare you to say that again.”
