Chapter 48
48 Strong Stamina
“Ella, are you ready to receive your punishment?” Christian grabbed Ella’s wrist and slowly approached her.
Ella felt her body stiffen even more. She looked at Christian warily and asked, “Christian, you won’t be cruel to me, will you?”
Ella said it quickly when Christian caught her wrist. She felt like she was really going to die now!
But all of this was her fault.
Why should she care about someone else’s problem? Nathan was not her son. She didn’t even have a family relationship with him. Why should she interfere?
She should have let the boy speak harshly to his heart’s content. After all, Nathan was nobody to her...
But for some reason, Ella couldn’t stay still. If Nathan were her son, she would punish him even harder!
However, what did she gain from her good intentions?
Now, no one took pity on her when she was in this situation.
.....
Christian suddenly stopped his hand’s movement and looked at Ella who looked scared.
This was a new side of Ella that he rarely saw. After all, Ella would always dare to seduce him even when everyone thought he was a cruel man.
Ella was the only woman who dared to seduce him this way...
“Do you think anyone will help you?” That one sentence made Ella’s struggle to fight instantly disappear.
She looked at Christian resignedly. “This is a normal reaction when someone is facing danger.”
“Danger?”
Christian repeated that one word. His eyes narrowed and there was a threat in them. If Ella dared to nod, he wouldn’t hesitate to make her suffer.
He would let go of anyone but not Ella.
Christian wanted her to stay by his side.
“Did I say it?” Ella immediately dodged as soon as she saw that threatening gaze. Slowly, she showed her sweet smile and said, “You are very strong and handsome. How could being beside you be dangerous?”
It looked like she was trying to change the team.
“Want to take this opportunity to run?”
Christian’s eyes darkened.
“Not.”
Ella shook her head. She raised her arms and wrapped them around Christian’s neck. “I can’t wait to be with you.”
Ella hoped that by teasing Christian, she could get out of trouble. She’d rather sleep and make love with Christian than let him spank her ass.
“Do you like me?”
The question took Christian by surprise even though he had said it before. But he couldn’t take the question back so he could only wait for Ella’s answer.
Ella was also surprised, not understanding why Christian would ask such a thing. She considered it carefully.
Could it be that Christian was afraid that he would fall in love with her and that it would make his life more difficult? Until now, their relationship was based solely on contracts and profits.
“You don’t have to worry. We’ll only get what we need,” from the start, they both agreed to get what they needed.
Ella needed Christian to take revenge on her family.
And Christian needed Ella to warm his bed.
That sentence made Christian feel annoyed for no reason. He hated women who chased and approached him.
But he felt that everything related to Ella was out of his control.
He grabbed Ella’s wrist harder, pulling her body closer. With his other hand, he took off the shirt Ella was wearing.
His movement was so rough that Ella’s shirt button was torn.
After that, he threw the shirt on the floor and let it lie there. Hearing the sound of the buttons being dislodged, Ella was confused. She didn’t know why Christian, who seemed fine before, suddenly changed.
“Christian, why do you...”
“Punishment.”
Christian interrupted at once, as if he didn’t want to hear Ella talk too much.
Ella recalled that her shirt was just a cheap shirt. Finally, she let Christian strip her off it.
As long as the man was happy... She’d be willing to do anything.
Still, Ella felt a little scared by Christian’s rude attitude. When she looked at the shirt lying on the floor, she seemed to see her fate flash before her.
Christian was very cruel.
Her body trembled slightly with fear. She looked at Christian, worried that a slight movement would make Christian even angrier.
However, her trembling body finally caught Christian’s attention.
The man looked back at her. Without the slightest warmth and tenderness in his voice, he asked, “Are you afraid?”
Ella nodded.
How could she not be afraid? She was afraid that all her efforts would be in vain. She was afraid that she would not have a chance to take revenge.
Christian looked at Ella for a long time.
“Good,” and as silence filled the room, only that one word left Christian’s mouth.
Ella felt she was hallucinating. The word was spoken so softly, not as harshly as before. The man’s voice made her heart calm again.
Perhaps it was because Ella felt that she had succeeded in persuading and pleasing Christian, so that she could calm down. Ella was so excited when she got a response from Christian and just a little gentleness from the man had satisfied her.
While Ella was silent, Christian was already kissing her neck.
Those cold lips made Ella shudder. After that, Christian’s warm breath made Ella feel passionate. Slowly, she began to follow the flow.
In the midst of their growing passion, Christian suddenly said, “You think Nathan is me. Do you also want to attract his attention?”
The sudden question cleared Ella’s head. “I don’t understand what you’re talking about,” she pretended like an idiot.
Christian just snorted coldly and then pushed Ella’s body further onto the bed. This time, he took off the skirt that Ella was wearing, down to her underwear. Meanwhile, Ella could only complain in her heart. She was sure that tomorrow she would wake up feeling achy, considering how strong this man’s stamina was.
Not knowing how long they spent making love, Ella only remembered that in the end, she couldn’t hold on and fell asleep exhausted.
...
The next morning, as soon as Ella opened her eyes, she heard Christian’s voice in her ear. “Next time if you do something wrong again, I will punish you harder than this.”
In an instant, her sleepiness just disappeared.
Ella turned her head and looked at the man standing by the bed looking at her. The movement made her groan, her whole body felt sore and uncomfortable, especially in certain areas.
She could only groan inwardly and lay back on her bed while Christian came out of the room.
She lay down for a moment while occasionally stretching her body to regain the energy that had been drained from her last night. After she regained the strength to get up, Ella rushed to the bathroom.
From the mirror, she saw her neck covered with the marks of Christian’s kisses. Once again, she groaned inwardly.
Even though Christian wasn’t there, she didn’t dare complain out loud.
