A Vow and A Promotion ?

Dian's smile softened. " Why would I ?" His eyes lacing with promise.

Gianna looked in his eyes for a moment.

Looking for a small hesitation or something but even after a moment there was nothing.

" Then sit ". She spoke.

" Hm?" Dian confused. " We can lie for a little long before we depart, why are yo– ." He spoke but before he could complete.

Gianna interepts him. " I said sit". She spoke again, her voice firmer than before, green eyes looking straight into his brown one.

Dian still confused, released her form his arms and sits on the bed. Did she just ordered me... ? He thought.

Gianna, placing the white sheet aside sat infront of Dian on the bed. Sitting infront of each other, looking in Dian's eyes.

" Then". Gianna spoke. " Take vows with me". Her voice firm, eyes looking directly into Dian's.

" Ermm, okay". Dian spoke not understanding what she really meant. She is like a totally different person, but what's with these vows. He thought.

" But what do I have to do." He asked.

" Repeat after I am done". Gianna answered. " Give me your hands first ". She speaks helding out her hands.

Dian compiling to her, puts his hands in her's.

Holding their hands inbetween them, Gianna starts. " O great goddess of Nature, may you bless us both – ". She started reciting something in another language after first two sentences.

Dian not following her just looked towards her. A sweet voice chiming in his head.

" Host, you are fast. Not been that long and you got yourself another woman ?". The system asked, her voice teasing.

" Hm? What are you talking about ?". Not following her, Dian asked in his mind.

" Oh? You really don't know ?". System commented. " It's a sacred ritual marriage ritua, among the elves". She answered.

And for the first time, Dian looked totally surprised, his eyes a little wide but it didn't lasted long.

A voice breaking through his thoughts. " Dian Skyster, will you be my husband ?" Gianna

asked, her grip tightening on Dian's hand.

Dian could sense her restness, a small glimpse of 'fear' in her firm eyes. But not of pain, one of rejection. " Yes". He answered.

Instantly, Gianna grip loosened, as if she held something with weight all along. Her face still firm but her eyes filled with joy betrayed her.

" It's your turn, Host." The system spoke as Dian didn't speak, lost in the moment, looking towards Gianna with soft, warm eyes.

" Gianna Measter, will you be my wife ?" Dian spoke, his voice firm, laced with a promise.

" Yes ! ". Gianna answered instantly, as if waiting for it. And before Dian could react.

'Mumph". She planted a soft kiss on his lips leaning close. A soft, short kiss laced with a of lifetime promise.

Soft... Sweet.. like honey... ? Dian thought. But different from before... More juicy.. ?.

And as her lips parted from his, a soft golden thread circled both of them. And in an instant dissolved like never existed.

Gianna now back on her place. Her firm look crumbling, A big smile on her face, her cheeks pink and with a 'squeak'. She hugged Dian, burying her face in his chest.

Chimes rang in Dian's mind but ignoring them he looked towards more important matters right now. 'Gianna'.

" Oh? All shy now ?" He spoke, his hands wrapping around her taking her in a hugg with ease, as if they belonged there.

Gianna didn't speak, she couldn't. Her face was beet red, her heart bumping fast in her lung's chamber.

Dian didn't push, he just smiled, a warmth building in his heart as he adored her. His one hand patting his head. " Okay, now it's time to leave. We can't be late ".

"Oh!" Suddenly, it hit him. I didn't tell her about Suzine.... A glimper of sadness covered his eyes for a moment. He released her, looking into her sparkling green eyes.

" Gian- no – Dear, I didn't tell you before". Dian started, his voice uncertain. " But I also have another woman waiting home for me ". A solem look appeared on her face as he spoke the last words.

Unable to look in her eyes, he looked downward. " I-i am so – ". Before he could finish, Gianna spoke.

" Hm ? So what ?" She tilted her head unable to understand what her 'husband' meant. "Isn't that ordinary for a nobel to have multiple wives ?"

Dian's eyes shot upward. Aah ! I am still clinging to earth's norms.... He thought, but before her could delve more into his thoughts, a voice pulled him out of reverie.

" But..". Gianna spoke. " I-i would like if you can give me a little space in your heart... even if I only a corner, it would be suffie". He voice bittersweet, a little smile on her face.

Dian felt a 'pang' in his heart as he heard her. These weren't just normal words or something sweet or anything. These was her all emotions, her want, her need.

" Ohh, come here !". Dian spoke and instantly pulled her close to him, sealing her lips.

'Mmmhhp....!'

A kiss but different from before, needing, wanting, hungry. Their lips parted only when their were left with gasping air...

Both panting, Dian leaned close touching her forehead with his. " I love you.... ". Gianna's eyes shot wide. But he wasn't finished.

" And not just a bit, but with all my heart... Not only you but every woman I have or will come in my life in the future. I will love them with all my heart too ". He spoke.

" But if you ever feel that it's not enough just tell me." His voice carrying warmth, a promise.

Tears welled in Gianna's eyes, his voice carried warmth, honesty, that made her heart flutter and a warmth filled her heart. He really is the one...! She thought.

"Hm". She nodds, embracing him again. For a moment neither of them moved, lost in one another's warmth, no words were spoke, nor needed. Only the sound of their heart filled the room and the warmth between them ever evident.

" Okay ". Dian finally spoke. " It's time to go now, otherwise your sister would be very angry on me, you know ?" He spoke, a wary smile on his face.

Gianna waited, words sinking in her head. " S-sister.. ?" She murmured, a soft blush on her cheeks.

" Hmm, sister. Both of you are my wife now". Dian spoke. " Isn't that obvious...?". A mischievous smile on his face.

With that he stood from the bed, his soft see through night robe still clinging to his body. Gianna breath caught in her throat as she saw him.

See through robe clinging to his body, tracing his muscles of chest, broad shoulders, abs and back. Defined muscles, white skin enhanced by the soft rays of dawn. And his face 'goddd..'. strong jawline, symmetrical features, well-defined cheekbones, and a proportionate nose and mouth.

With crystal like brown eyes, black silky hair and a glow on his face.

Gianna remebered, the elves were a race praised for their beauty too but it wasn't limited to womens but men also. Her eyes swept along Dian's figure as he made his way towards the bath.

I don't think any one of them can compar to his charm... A smile tugging her lips, her heart fluttering as she remembered their relationship now.

" H-husband– ". She murmured, her cheeks buring red as she rolled on the bed.

Dian now inside the washroom, led straight for the bathtub. A large tub enough to accommodate five people, rosses smell filling his nostrils relaxing his mind.

And instantly– a chime rang in his mind.

[Ding !]

A blue screen appeared infront of his eyes, floating in the air.

Multiple messages poped infront of him but his eyes darted towards the one with golden words.

" Novice Villain.. ?" He spoke, almost to himself.
