Evangeline POV;
When I reached the given location, I told my driver to go back. I moved towards my destination, and I realized it was a beach. I was excited because I love the beach, sunsets, and the starry sky. A vast open ocean, soft rolling tides, and a peach-hued horizon is the perfect way to have a toast to any relationship.
So, Aeryn selected a superb place for our first dinner date. I walked for a minute. Then I found an arrow pointing towards a direction. I moved in that direction after walking for two or three minutes. I saw a path full of roses and candles arranged in a row on both sides, making a beautiful pathway. I walked on the red roses and reached a beautiful tent decorated with white net cloth and roses all over while candles had placed in a circle. In the center were a table and chair. The table has also been decorated with lots of food. A smile crept to my lips because everything was perfect. Suddenly, a pair of hands gripped my waist from behind, and a shiver crawled from my spine.
"Did you like it?" Aeryn asked me, kissing my earlobe, and I closed my eyes.
"I I loved it," I replied with a trembling voice, and a smirk came to his lips.
Then we moved towards a chair, and he was still back hugging me.
He offered me a chair, and I sat on it. He moved towards his chair. I was sure he didn't see my hotness till now. So, I stood to remove my camel coat. I took a step back and started to remove it. His eyes were on me all the time. When I took it off completely, his jaw fell on the ground.
But soon, he composed himself and offered me a glass of champagne. After that, we ate dinner in silence. While eating, I could feel his hot gaze on me. But he didn't say anything to me.
He didn't praise me nor say that I was looking hot. I was pissed off.
I wore this off-shoulder, short, skin-tight black dress just to show him, but he didn't remark on me or say anything. After dinner, he stood and played music. He forwarded his hand to me and said:
"Would you like to dance?" I gladly accepted his request for a dance. We started to dance in slow motion. Aeryn's hands were on my hips just above my ass, and my hands were on his chest. We were dancing in a rhythm when he turned me. Now my back was touching his chest, and his hands were resting on my waist. While dancing, I felt his breath on my earlobe.
"Gorgeous, hot, ravishing, stunning you are. You're looking tempting, Sexy."
By saying this, he bit my earlobe and then licked it to soothe the pain. I was feeling butterflies in my stomach and a tingling sensation down there. He then came to my neck and started kissing there. In between kisses, he again bit me on my collarbone, and I hissed in pain. He licked that place to soothe the pain.
"This is your punishment for wearing a skin-revealing dress again. But as you wore it for me and nobody saw you. So, I won't be hard on you this time." After saying this, he again bit me on my neck and shoulder joint.
"Why are you biting me? Stop this will leave marks." I said to him while my voice was not on my side. It was trembling due to the pleasure that his kisses and bites were giving.
"I'm not biting you. I'm giving you love bites, and I know it will leave marks. That's why I'm marking you. You're mine now and forever. I'll mark your whole body on our wedding night and make you mine completely."
His words did something to me, and a shiver ran down my spine, and I felt my legs become wobbly. Then I pulled myself away from him and moved towards a chair. I gripped it while my eyes closed. I was trying to calm down. My heart was beating very fast. I didn't know when this happened and how he had this much effect on my body. Only his words and kisses were giving my body goosebumps, and I was feeling a prickling sensation down there.
Then I felt his presence behind me. I didn't want to face him because I knew my face would be red due to blushing. But then he held me from my shoulder and made me turn towards him. My eyes focused on my knee-length, high boots. Then I saw him bending on his knees, and I said to myself,
"Oh god. Aeryn is going to propose to me again. What would I say? No, not so soon." But then he took out a small red box from her pants pocket and opened it. There was the same ring he offered me on a yacht. He took that ring out of the box and forwarded his hand to me, and said:
"This is my mom's ring. She gave me this ring to put on your finger the day she died. This ring belonged to you from the start. I kept it with me for a long time. Now, it's time to give it to you."
"She said you to give me," I said, pointing my finger at me.
"She said to give you means the person I would love, and I loved you, I love you. So, this ring belongs to you. Will you let me put this ring on your finger?" He asked me with a lot of emotions in his eyes. I didn't think for a second and nodded my head.
"This ring is not an engagement ring. But it's a promise ring that would keep you mine. It's my promise to you that soon you will be mine with me in my arms in my home. It's a promise that I'll always be there for you, and you got me in every situation As you are accepting this ring. So, it's also a promise from your side that you'll always be mine. You won't allow any other men in your heart, brain, or life. It's a promise that you're giving me your heart, soul, body, everything. From now onward, you Evangeline' my angel only belongs to me. It's a promise from your side. Now, tell me? Will you promise me to remain mine in every situation?
When he asked me, I saw a lot of emotions like fear, love, care, possession, obsession, passion, fire, a lot of emotions in his eyes. Then I took a deep breath and said:
"Yes, I promise you. I'll be yours from now on, and I'll remain yours throughout my life. I'll be with you in every situation. I'll be with you in your every thick or thin. I'm yours, and I'll be yours. I promise you."
Aeryn slipped the ring in my ring finger and stood. He pulled me by the waist towards him and crashed his lips on mine. He kissed me passionately. His kiss was telling me how much he belonged to me and how much he wanted me.
He was sucking my lower lip and trying to invade my mouth. But I didn't allow him Because I lost in my past. Asher always kissed me like him. His method of kissing reminded me of Asher, and I was lost.
When he noticed I was not kissing him back, he bitted my lower lip, and I hissed in pain. Due to which I opened my mouth for him to invade, and I also came back to the present. He was exploring my mouth as he owned it. He was ravishing my mouth on his will. After a long passionate kiss, he finally left me to take a breath. I was breathing heavily.
"You didn't like my kiss." He asked with an eyebrow raised.
I looked towards him with what are you saying expression, and he said:
"You didn't respond to my kiss." He said and turned away to move. I saw his angry face.
"Not again," I exclaimed and pulled him to me and crashed my lips to his. I started sucking his upper lip. Soon he responded to my kiss and started sucking my lower lip. He was trying to conquer my mouth, and I gladly let him do it.
He again ravished my mouth, but this time I was also kissing him back. Our tongues fought for dominance, but at last, he won. He ravished every corner of my mouth. After a full passionate kiss, we broke apart. We were panting for a breath. While inhaling oxygen in my lungs, I glanced towards Aeryn. He was looking at me with predatory eyes. I bit my lower lip in nervousness, and he pulled me by my waist and crashed his body on me. He started kissing my neck, collarbone, shoulder. He was giving me wet kisses along with hickeys.
Then he pulled me closer by putting his hand on my hips, and he launched on my cleavage. He gave me a love bite there also and licked it to soothe the pain. I was moaning, and Aeryn was groaning in between kisses. I was a moaned mess. His kisses were giving me intense pleasure. He was sending me to heaven, but then he broke us apart. He took a step back and looked at me. I immediately moved my fingers through my hair. I was hell embarrassed. I didn't know what happened, and Why did he back off?
"What happened? Aeryn," I tried to say it out, but nothing left my mouth.
"Let's go. I'll drop you at home." Aeryn exclaimed to me, tightening the knot of his tie that got loose during our makeout.
"What happened? Aeryn. Did I do something wrong?" I asked him, feeling embarrassed.
"No, you didn't do anything wrong. But if we stayed there for a while. I'm sure I'll lose my control and would ravish you completely, which I don't want to do before our marriage. Now, let's go."
He said to me and moved towards the table. My face was tomato red due to blushing. I was hell embarrassed along with happiness. I was not able to name my emotions at that time.
He came towards me and made me wear my camel coat. Then he arranged my hair through his finger that was disheveled during the makeout session. Then we moved towards his car. I rushed in and sat, and he also moved towards the driver seat and sat on it.
He started driving, and we reached my home near 1 am. I immediately got out of the car and rushed towards my house when he again pulled me by my wrist and the next moment I collided with a rock, hard chest. I was avoiding eye contact, but then he lifted my head by my chin. Then he moved his thumb on my lips and its corner. Then he leaned his face on me and gave a peck on my lips, and I ran from there towards my home. I heard a chuckle behind me, but I didn't look back.
