Love Worth Fighting For

“Wait ..”

Christian stopped his intention to close the photo album that was on his lap. “What is it?”

“I..I want to see the latest photo of Suri that you briefly showed me,” said Elena quietly.

Christian smiles. “Still curious, huh? Don’t worry, you and Suri are both beautiful. The difference is that Suri is my biological sister and you are...”

“I..is this your sister?” Elena stammered. “When was this photo taken?”

“This photo was taken when he entered college for the first time, three years ago. Oh no, three and a half years ago to be exact. What’s wrong?”

Elena nodded slowly. “She’s really pretty, huh...”

Christian smiles, in a swift motion that Elena can’t avoid, Christian manages to make her sit back on his lap again.

.....

“Christ...”

“Don’t be jealous, Suri is my sister. My biological sister, Elena. Even though I often praise her, it’s only a big sister’s compliment to her sister, nothing more. Both of you have a special place in my heart, so don’t been jealous of her.”

“Christ, stop.” Elena squeezes Christian’s chest tightly as Christian squeezes her ass hard.

Christian’s eyes stare sadly at Elena who is trying to get off his lap. “Move in and live with me, Elena. Be with me, I’m really lonely in this house.”

“I can’t Christ, I can’t leave my parents. They only have me, besides that they are also not young anymore. I won’t be able to leave them both by moving to your big house, I’m not that crazy, Christ.”

“Weekends only then, stay with me when the weekends come.” Christian again urges Elena to accept his offer, Elena is the only woman who makes a Christian Clarke make the same request over and over again.

“Please... I need you, Elena.”

Seeing Christian begging and pleading like that made Elena melt, her little heart ached when she saw a Christian Clarke say such desperate words as before.

“Elena...”

“Only weekends and we will sleep in separate rooms, if you agree I will consider your request.”

Christian immediately hugged Elena tightly. “Thank you, Elena. Thank you, I’m so happy. I won’t be lonely anymore after this.”

Elena pursed her lips, her hand slowly stroking Christian’s hair gently. “Now put me down, I don’t want the maids to see.”

“They won’t dare to look at us, don’t be afraid.”

“Christ,” Elena breathed hoarsely. “I want to pee, I can’t stand it anymore.” Elena’s cheeks turned red as she spoke.

Christian keeps his head away from Elena’s chest, his two blue beads staring meaningfully at Elena who is blushing.

“Let’s go to my room,” Christian says quickly, as quickly as he moves Elena down from his lap.

“Why do you have to go to your room?” Elena asks loudly as she slaps Christian’s hand that’s about to wrap around her waist.

“Didn’t you want to pee earlier?” Christian asks guiltily.

Elena put on an awkward face, facing back with the annoying Christian that had to make a lot of stock out of her patience. “Indeed, but why does it have to be in your room? In a house this big, there is no toilet that guests can use, right?”

“Yes.”

“Well if there is, I’ll just use the toilet.”

Christian shakes his head. “No, I won’t let that happen. You have to use the same toilet as me, you have to get used to sharing a room with me.”

“Yes but....”

Elena’s words stop when Christian’s big hand rests on her wrist. “We’ll talk later, now come with me to the room.”

Elena, who had no other choice finally relented, she allowed Christian to take her to his room which was on the second floor. When they made it through quite a lot of stairs, Christian and Elena finally arrived on the second floor, Elena’s attention was immediately stolen by the many doors in front of her at this time. The Clarke family home isn’t just a house, it’s a palace!

Christian smiles as he feels Elena’s body tense up. “Don’t be afraid, everyone in this painting is the Clarke family’s predecessors. Didn’t you meet them yesterday?”

“Yeah but...”

“They won’t bother the new member of this family, Elena,” Christian said again, teasing Elena who has an excessive fear of ghosts really makes Christian happy.

Elena remains silent, she vehemently refuses Christian’s invitation to continue on her way. Elena didn’t have that much courage, the hallway in front of which the walls were lined with paintings of the Clarke family’s predecessors frightened her. Elena felt that dozens of eyes in the painting were watching her.

“Don’t want to go alone?” Christian asks softly in a seductive sensual tone, Elena who doesn’t realize the meaning behind Christian’s words shakes her head quickly. Until finally Elena’s screams were finally heard when Christian carried her like a bride.

“Christ...”

“Stay still, Elena. I don’t want you to fall, you better hold onto me because soon we will pass a row of paintings in front of you. Just so you know, my bedroom is at the far end.”

Elena narrows her eyes, showing her vehement protest at Christian. But because Christian started to walk, Elena had no other choice. Elena immediately wrapped her arms around Christian’s neck, her eyes immediately closed tightly.

Christian, who had started walking, smiled slightly when he felt how fast Elena’s heart was beating right now. In the position Elena was holding him in his arms, Christian could clearly feel Elena’s heartbeat. Elena really is a coward and Christian has lots of fun plans to do by taking advantage of Elena’s weakness.

Christian stops in his tracks when he reaches the door of his room, the room he has lived in alone for more than twenty-seven years.

“We’re here, Elena,” Christian whispers softly. “Open your eyes.”

Elena, who couldn’t believe it, chose to keep her eyes closed. “You’re not joking, are you?”

“No, cowardly girl.”

Slowly Elena opened her eyes while still not lifting her face, Elena still didn’t dare to look around.

“9 9 9 6 6 6.”

“Eh?”

“That’s the password to open my bedroom door, Elena. Quickly enter the number combination.”

Elena obediently pressed the numbers Christian had mentioned earlier, a ‘click’ sound immediately sounded as soon as Elena pressed the last number.

“Welcome to my room,” Christian says softly to Elena who is still in his arms.

Elena immediately looked around to see the state of Christian’s room, the bedroom which was dominated by gray and earth colors looked so neat. All items are neatly arranged in their respective places. Even though she knew that it was the maid who tidied the room, Elena was still amazed. Embarrassment immediately overtook her, Elena remembered how messy her bedroom was which was nothing compared to Christian’s room. Elena feels like a failure as a woman.

Christian carefully lowered Elena from his arms, because the blazer that Elena was wearing was enough to bother him without asking for permission, Christian immediately removed the clothes from Elena’s body, leaving a peach colored turtleneck shirt that looked so beautiful on Elena’s body.

“The toilet is on your left, honey,” Christian says quietly, startling Elena who is admiring the layout of the rooms of a wealthy single man who desperately wants her to live with him.

Elena blinked her eyes at Christian’s words.

“Want me to accompany you to the toilet too?” Christian teases again.

Elena immediately smacks Christian in the chest in annoyance. “Don’t be crazy, I can do it myself!”

After saying that, Elena rushed to the bathroom that Christian had shown earlier, just like when she entered Christian’s room a moment ago, Elena was again amazed by the sight in front of her. The size of her bedroom at home, still nothing with the size of Christian’s bathroom. Elena has been slapped so many times by all the luxuries that Christian has, now she realizes why so many girls are so eager to get a Christian Clarke. The wealth of this handsome young CEO really dazzled the eyes of all the young girls.

As soon as she finished her urination, Elena looked much better. After making sure her appearance is perfect, Elena comes out of the extraordinarily stunning bathroom to meet Christian. Elena was ready to return to the living room, but Elena’s desire to return to the living room did not seem to be coming true soon. The reason is that at this time Christian, the figure most responsible for his existence in the super luxurious room, is now lying on his big bed with his eyes tightly closed. After being up all night, Christian can’t help the drowsiness that tempts him to sleep.

“Christ... oh my God, why are you sleeping? Come on out, I’m done.”

Christian who was already on his way to his dreamland didn’t respond to Elena’s words, the sleepiness was so strong that he couldn’t open his lips.

Feeling neglected made Elena annoyed, after stomping her feet on the floor, Elena then approached the big bed that could accommodate three adults at once. Elena’s anger evaporates as soon as she hears Christian’s soft snoring, the man is already sound asleep. And Elena didn’t have the heart to wake him up, Elena wasn’t that bad.

Christian’s shady face that looks so peaceful makes Elena unable to do anything, even though she’s only known Christian for two months, but Elena knows that her boss and her lover is very sleep deprived today.

“How is it, am I going to just stay here? Oh my God, that’s so awkward.”

When Elena was contemplating what to do, suddenly Jorge walked in. The middle-aged man nodded slowly at Elena, in his hand he carried a tray of food and drinks that Christian had ordered for Elena.

“If you need my help please contact me by pressing ‘zero’, miss,” said Jorge politely after placing the tray he was carrying carefully on the table.

Elena shook her head. “I want to go home, wait for me.”

Jorge smiled. “You’d better stay in the room with the young master, miss. It would be very risky if you go home while the young master is still sleeping like now.”

“But I...”

“This is the first time Young master has brought his lover home, don’t worry, Miss. We all won’t bother you both, we were young too.”

Elena’s tongue went blank immediately, apparently it wasn’t just Christian who was insane. The maids in his house were just as insane as he was. Not wanting to disturb the master’s sleep, Jorge then left Christian’s room leaving Elena looking so confused.

“Ish...why did he leave...how do I get out of this place??”

When Elena was cursing Jorge, suddenly Christian’s cell phone rang loudly. Elena immediately turned towards the nightstand, where the cellphone was lying. Elena’s heart beats fast when she sees Anne’s photo appear on Christian’s phone screen.

“Ouch how is this...”
