I know "と" sometimes connects two sentences, implying consecutive actions, reasoning or conditions. But none of these meanings fits here. My best guess of its meaning is "I won't call you because I promised so."
But what does "と" actually imply here? What's the difference between:

と has a lot of uses.
As far as I know, と can be uses to point to:
- a member of a complete list (X と Y と Z => noun X AND noun Y AND noun Z)
- a cause of a natural consequence (condition A と natural consequence B => ALWAYS WHEN condition A THEN consequence B)
- a partner also doing the action (person A と action Z => to do action Z TOGETHER WITH person A)
- with certain type of adverbs (the so called "adverbs taking the 'to' particle"), for example しっかり、だんだん etc.
- a quote (X と [person A は] said => "X" said [person A])
The と used here is a quotation particle:
～と言う => to say that ～
～と約束する => to promise that ～

I know the quotativeと, but this case is especially confusing to me because it hasからas well. Or thisからisn't connecting貴方を...and約束する..., but connecting this whole sentence and an implicit sentence, like貴方を呼ばないと約束するから、(私は呼ばない)?
