The Red-Haired Lover

After the death of her parents, nine-year-old Maria met the mysterious seventeen-year-old Sarkon Ritchie who claimed to be her father’s friend and wanted to take her under his wing to care for her. As she got older, she realized that Sarkon comes from a world entirely different from hers: a world of the plutocrats, the most powerful and wealthy people of Lenmont’s high society - and Maria’s life had taken an extraordinary turn… Despite Sarkon’s insistence on being Maria’s guardian, who swore to protect her in place of her father, Maria fell in love with that striking blue gaze and beastly charm. But what does it mean to love the second most powerful person of Lenmont’s high society? Will he ever love her back? Or will Maria be just another pawn of a power struggle? The Red-Haired Lover is created by Elle Gobe, an eGlobal Creative Publishing author.

Chapter 111: Sarkon’s Blue Eyes Symbolize…

“What about me?” Maria asked in a quivering voice. “What about me, Sarkon? All this while, did you even think of me?”

The beast looked away.

Maria turned her cheek. “You used to think for me. You used to support what I did as long as it helped me. I love art… because of you. I want to pursue it. This competition will help me, can you not see that?”

She stared fruitlessly at the giant as his silver curls played nonchalantly in the breeze.

Finally, she dropped both hands to her side as if defeated. “I wanted you to be there with me, Sarkon. I feel proud of myself. I've achieved something on my own. I wanted to share the moment with you.”

A despairing sniff escaped from her. “But you said you were not interested… Do you not know how much that hurts?”

Slowly, the giant turned back. He caught the tears streaming down the corner of her eyes and swallowed hard.

He wanted to take her into his arms and say that he was sorry, but something was holding him back.
