Chapter 39 Vow
At noon, the couple had to emerge from their sleep after hearing Juliet's cry of hunger, Dan covered her exhausted wife's body and said, "I'll take care of Juliet for now, you relax for a bit...I've been taking advantage of you for these past hours." Dan revealed a guilty expression. Indeed, his pent-up desire paired with high sexual drive combined together, making him a monkey with the stamina of a bull.
Natalie wryly smiled and closed her eyes before she fell into a sleep, completely exhausted.
Dan walked out of the room and found Juliet on the brink of crying. When she saw Dan's figure, Juliet burst into tears and embraced her father, "Papa!"
"Here, here, here..." Dan patted the girl's back and took some soft candies from his Spatial Storage. Dan transformed into a spoiling husband and told Juliet some stories from his previous life, including the story of a beautiful woman with seven short men.
Juliet's bell-like laughter echoed from the room and soon, Natalie woke up from slumber and dragged her tired body towards the bath. Dan moved his head closer to Juliet's neck and said, "Hmmph, you stink!" Juliet turned around and pinched his nose, which made him chuckle in response.
'Papa also stinks!" Juliet cheekily replied and Dan carried her towards the bathroom, there, he found Natalie lying on the bath with a wry smile on her face, but when she saw Juliet who happily struggled in Dan's arms stretching her hands towards her mother, Natalie's exhausted expression melted and she joyfully took her daughter and bathed her.
"I'll go prepare for dinner, both of you, just enjoy..." Dan turned his back towards them and walked towards the kitchen, taking some ingredients that Natalie brought for dinner, he rolled his sleeves up and reminisced about the memories that he had to cook nutritious meals for himself as a NEET.
Since he had no parents to care for himself, Dan had to learn recipes so that he could reduce his cost of living, and now that he transmigrated and realized that the ingredients used in cooking here didn't differ that much from Earth, Dan knew that with his knowledge, he could beat his wife's cooking.
Smiling to himself, he prepared one of the best meals that he could cook, Red-Braised Pork.
Soon, the fragrant aroma of tender meat and the alluring scent of sweet soy sauce along with a spicy kick wafted from the pot that Dan continuously stirred, Juliet who bathed with her mother, took notice of this smell and exclaimed, "Mama, it smells so good!"
Natalie knitted her eyebrows, 'Could it be that Dan brought someone else to cook?' She knew that her idea was impossible, after all. It was the first time that Dan went to this Empire.

But she also didn't believe that a silk pants young master like her husband could whip out such a dish that aroused her hunger and tempted her palate. Standing up, she wiped Juliet's body clean and walked out of the bath.
There, she found Dan cheekily smiling at her with a proud expression on his face, "How's the bath? Are you okay now? Come, I prepared a dish that will surely revitalize you..." Dan gestured and Natalie's doubt intensified.
"Hubby, are you really the one who cooked, this?" She said, Dan faced her, knitted his eyebrows and said, "Why? Do you want the recipe or your doubting my culinary ability?"
Natalie didn't say anything in response, taking a spoon, she scooped a spoonful of the sticky and thick sauce of the pork and sipped.
A burst of fragrance and fattiness exploded within her mouth, Natalie couldn't help but quiver, while her daughter exclaimed in delight, "Papa cook delicious!"
Witnessing their dumbfounded expressions, Dan followed a certain anime's gesture and said, "Glad you liked it!" He even turned his back away, looking cool and indifferent.
Natalie rolled her eyes, "Confess, who cooked this?" Dan turned around and chuckled, "You're still suspicious about that? How about this, tomorrow at breakfast, I'll teach you the recipe." His words reassured Natalie. And since she couldn't find anything to refute, she could only enjoy the meal in indignance.
Dan felt his wife's feelings, he knew that she looked somber and despondent upon the realization that her husband was even better at her in chores that could be considered as her job as a wife.
The veil of the night came and the family slept inside the same room but with Juliet sleeping on a separate bed. Dan once again took the initiative and pressed his wife under him.
Natalie stared at Dan with a speechless and helpless expression as she mumbled, "Hubby, in the future that I'm old and spent, will you still take care of me like this?" Her expression turned melancholic and the sight of it, made the latter's heart, ache.
"What are you saying? Didn't I say that I won't let you go old? We'll stand together and achieve Immortality..." Dan refuted, but since he didn't answer Natalie's questions, the light within her eyes, dimmed.
"I won't say any flowery words since I suck at that, but just remember." Holding her shoulders, Dan declared, "As long as I'm alive, I will never abandon you and Juliet."
His words reassured Natalie, but she once again turned her head away and said, "Hubby," Her expression turned scarlet-red and she looked reluctant to meet his gaze.
Knitting his eyebrows, Dan said, "What's the matter? Is there any problem?" Natalie turned her attention to him but she still didn't meet his gaze as she said, "Are you planning on taking other wives beside me?"
Her words echoed inside Dan's mind like a thunderclap. Indeed, when he just transmigrated, he looked forward in meeting and conquering beauties, eventually creating the largest harem in the entire universe.
But now that he thought about it, Dan realized that having a harem was something unromantic. The idea of sharing your love between other wives didn't click right in his mind. But still, having numerous beauties beside you was every man's dream, and because of that, he found it hard to answer Natalie's question.
Natalie took his silence as confirmation, embracing his neck, she said, "It's fine if you take other wives, and I don't think that I can handle you alone..." She spoke in a hushed tone.
"Can't handle? What do you mean?"
Natalie shivered, taking a pillow, she covered her face and said, "I don't think I can handle your desires alone..."
Hearing his wife's words, Dan didn't know whether to laugh or to cry. But he also couldn't blame himself. After all, he was a virgin wizard at his previous life, and after tasting Natalie, Dan didn't even know if he can still use his hand.
"As for other wives, potentially, I may marry other women, especially if our feeling is mutual and strong. But I want you to remember this, No matter how many wives will I have in the future, you're my first wife and you will forever be my priority..." Dan said these words which made him inwardly cringe. But upon hearing these, Natalie removed the pillow from her face and passionately kissed her husband.
Under the veil of the night, a scene which the gods above the heavens even felt reluctant and embarrassed to watch, unfolded. Apart from Juliet's hushed snores, a pair of hastened breathing and moans converged in a form of a storm which destroyed the room's tranquility.
The calm only returned, when daybreak arrived.
