Alle Kapitel von Try Harder: Kapitel 21 – Kapitel 30

Alena realized this version of Christan is very endearing. She couldn’t help but get her hopes up, higher than usual. It actually feels like they’re really dating. Well, they are, but it doesn’t feel like they’ve only just started. In their short calls, she was able to get a glimpse of his daily life. She got a good grasp of his schedule, when his breaks are and when he leaves the office.When Thursday came, she chose a much nicer outfit for the dinner. She started feeling nervous again. She hasn’t asked Christan about it. She’d like it to be a surprise if he’ll be able to come or not. Alena was relieved and the smile on her face was frozen in place when all three of them showed up. The boys kissed her cheeks before sitting down and she hugged them briefly. She looked up at Christan and was surprised when he leaned down and kissed her cheek, too. She knew she’s blushing. Her eyes widened a little as she bit her lip. Did he just&

As soon as Alice heard more information about their dad’s plan, she would tell everything to Alena.“He actually made a shortlist and at the top of the list is someone named Tristan Jake Woods. They call him TJ. Seems like a good man but scarred. Literally. He’d been in a vehicular accident right out of college. He’s got some issues with women, apparently. Gold diggers, the usual. And his scars seem to cause him a certain level of insecurity. Other than that, he’s quite the successful businessman. Almost at par with the likes of Christan Taylor.” Alice rattled off from her notes.“Not at all interested, Alice.”“I know, just letting you know what kind of man dad wants for you.”“Someone scarred, really?” As soon as she said it, Alena felt bad. She’s not the type to judge someone based on appearance.Alice made a disgruntled noise. “Alena.” Her tone carried a w

“I need to be inside you now. We’ll have more fun later.” He declared and she readily nodded. She adjusted herself towards the center of the bed, with him crawling above her.When she moved to take her panties off, he stopped her.“Leave it.”Right. It’s flimsy anyway. She thought as she spread her legs wide for him. He touched her again, preparing her, making her terribly wet to easily receive his girth. She could remember the first time he entered her. He stretched her walls to its limit, and it will happen again now. As he stimulated her for natural lubrication, his mouth found its way towards her breasts. The lace material didn’t actually hide her assets. If anything, it highlighted it. The design made it so that her nipples looked like the center of the flowers. He licked them over the lace and the rough texture of his tongue and the lace made her squirm. Her chest heaved up and down. The motion stirring up his imag

She groaned, sure that her family would’ve seen the same articles. Well, it’s not as if it was a secret to them. Her dad would be the one getting a hard time. It’s his fault anyway. Dragging her into an agreement without getting her consent. Serves him right.“It’s not that hard to figure out the truth. Their speculations were mostly on point, but there is some damage there. We can just let it settle down on its own. It’s more important that I get your dad’s approval and help him if he would let me.”Aww… she felt soft inside at his concern for her stubborn and difficult dad.“You’d do that?”“Anything to let him accept me.” He returned the phone to Carl and pressed a kiss on Alena’s lips.Carl’s not sure if he should be happy or if he should be grossed out. A quick kiss is fine. No need to drag it out in front of young eyes.Alena thought the sa

Christan lazily watched her. Alena thought she’d never see him this way.She lightly shook her head. She can’t be tempted by him again.Alice answered on the third ring.“Girl, what’s up? Are you at Chirstan’s?”Alena sighed. “Yeah, I am. What’s going on at home? How’s dad? Is he angry?”Alice snorted, “Well, what do you expect? He still is. If you’re planning to come home, do it tomorrow or the next day. He’s still busy dealing with the Woods. It’s shameful for them, to be turned down immediately like that. But of course, not your fault, dear. The stubborn man just couldn’t accept he’s wrong.”“Thanks. What about mom?”“Oh, she’s fine. We’re both proud of you. She’s helping dad deal with the situation.”Alena sighed in relief, before glancing at Christan. She couldn’t help but lo
