The Bad Boy’s Favorite Girl

Chapter seventy-seven

Elena’s pov

“Then I took to stripping not because I wanted to, but because I needed a break from my family drama and also because I needed the money I earned from it”

“My father actually sent money to my mom, but she didn’t care about me and would always invest it in Dylan And other men she brought home, I thought it would make me independent earning money every week. So I became consistent in the club and earned myself the name Diamond Foxx.” I could see the shock on Mac’s face but I continued my story.

“Months later, I was the highest-paid stripper for any club. I could earn close to a thousand dollars in a week and it was great doing this job.” I turned to look at Mac, whose eyes were now on me. He had a questioning look on his face but His eyes also held so many emotions and I could feel it within that he was being empathetic towards me.

“I was assaulted by Dylan on a fateful day. According to him, I didn’t treat my mother well as she was ill at that period. He whipped me so hard that I had bruises on my body. I had come over to your place hoping to meet you, but you had gone to meet Liam… So you see Mac Lee, my life has never been easy” I chuckled amidst the tears flowing from my eyes, remembering the words of the strange man I had met while I was yet to be conscious.

He said all would be perfectly fine and I kept wondering how things would be fine when the pain of the past would not go away, I was still a total mess that needed to be cleaned.

I felt arms wrapped around me and I hugged him tight, never letting go of him at any time. He was my only source of hope, the one I could put all my heart out for. Mac Lee wasn’t anybody to me, he was my knight in shiny armor.

Mac’s pov

Seating there and listening to all Elena was saying only made me realize how broken she was at that point.

Remembering the times when I had bullied her, I felt ashamed and didn’t feel worthy enough to have her.

She was a pure soul and it was rare to find people like her still living today. Many would have opted for suicide but she chose to stand strong.

But I couldn’t help but wonder, “How come you were so good at stripping?” I asked her knowing fully well that I could testify that she was good at it. She looked at me for a while before she replied.

“I don’t know, I guess it’s just a talent given to a nerdy girl like me,” she replied sarcastically.

“No one would have believed that you are the famous stripper they all have been dying for!” I commented.

She giggled as she replied playfully “You were also into me as a stripper, remember?… that time I turned you down at the club and made the bodyguards send you out of the club” she said and I nodded sadly.

“Well I am sorry for that, It’s just That you loved bullying me then and that was the only chance I could get to give you a test of your own medicine,” she remarked and I couldn’t help but chuckle.

“Yes remember Mr Billionaire right?” I asked and she nodded before it occurred to her that I wasn’t supposed to know about him.

“Well, I WAS MR BILLIONAIRE!” I said almost after she nodded making her grasp.

“OMG, I thought as much but I didn’t want to believe it was you, oh my God Mac what in the world would have made you receive a private section of a lap dance from me,” she asked and immediately she realized the reason.

“Oh, revenge right?” She asked immediately with a smile on her face.

“You are such a character Mac,” she added.

“Well who would have thought I would not Have to wait in line again to get a lap dance from one of the best lap dancers in the world” I said and she had this wild smile on her face that gave me this satisfaction.

The night was getting cold and at that point, everything else meant nothing to me, all I wanted was to just hold her in my arms and whisper assurance to her, that all would be fine, and everything would be okay.

“I think we should go home,” She said, releasing herself off my arms and adjusting her top while standing up.

“You came with your motorcycle right?” She asked to scan the area for it.

“Sure” I replied, also standing up to my feet, but not moving an inch. I was staring at her and it was at this moment I realized how much of a beauty she was.

The moon made her face so bright that you could think she was an angel of some sort that had been sent down from heaven.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

“Stop looking at me like that, you giving me the creeps’ ‘ She started noticing how unfazed my stare was becoming.

“You are beautiful” I had to tell her those lines. They weren’t just mere words that I regularly threw out to women, heck I couldn’t imagine the last time I genuinely told a girl she was beautiful. My only purpose in telling a girl she was beautiful was to get in their pants, but here I was telling them out of the depth of my heart.

“Stop with the flattering Mac,” She said, pressing her cheeks together, hoping to suppress the blush that was gracing them.

“I am serious Elena, seeing you standing here this very minute under the moon, I realized how much of a jerk I have been all the while. I have seen so many girls, Elena, but I have not seen anyone that is as beautiful as you are, in and out is perfection” Tears ran down her eyes as I spoke those words.

I was surprised at myself knowing I could speak words so deeply to a girl. I have always considered myself a narcissistic and self-loving type of guy, but with Elena, my perception had changed.

She walked up to me, holding my cheeks and staring at my eyes. She was searching through my eyes and for some seconds our eyes were in sync and it felt like we could understand what was going on with each other.

“I love you Mac, even when the world would go against you, I would still be here for you” I couldn’t hold it anymore, I lifted her chin and stared at her lips for a second, before leaning down slowly to kiss her.

The moment our lips brushed against each other, I felt a spark within me. The spark was a testimony of our unending chemistry and I knew she felt it.

We kissed under the moonlight, under the tides of the ocean, and the watch of the stars. This peace came to me and I knew she felt the same way.
