Listening to Kai come at the sound of my voice was up there with the most erotic nights of my life. The round was meant to be torture, and it was, but not because I was kept in a dark cage all night. It was torture to be so close to Kai and yet not be able to touch her.

There was a time when Kai wouldn’t let me touch her, and I thought that was pain. But now that I love her, not feeling her is like losing a limb. I don’t feel whole without her.

In some ways though, I wish last night had lasted longer. It was torture, but not as much as today will be. Kai was safe as long as we were both locked in our cells. But now I hear the footsteps nearing. Now I know the real suffering is about to begin.

Now is my last moment alone with Kai to tell her whatever she needs to get through today. I can remind her of how strong she is. Tell her how much I’ve missed her, how I would die for her. Even that I love her.

But I can’t say any of those things. I can’t say I love you for the first time through a wall.

And Kai must feel that the time for emotions has long gone, because she doesn’t tell me she loves me either, even though she’s said it before. Instead, she says, “I know. We are ready. Let’s do this.”

Fuck, so strong, even in the light of darkness.

Our doors are opened simultaneously as the light of the hallway pours inside. But neither of blink or adjust to the light. We are both so used to the light finding us in the darkest of places.

“Time for round two. And we have all agreed it is best to continue the rounds down here. Less messy that way,” Archard says, clearing his throat like he is talking about the weather and not about the blood that will soon be pouring from our bodies.

My eyes connect with Kai’s in the light of day as we step out of the cages and for a second, I see the heaviness of the night before returning to warrior mode. She’s not going to make this easy for me to win.

“Let’s start with the cuts before the second round,” Archard says looking at Langston.

He approaches me with the knife low in his hand, knowing the anticipation is worse than the actual cut. He inserts the knife into my other thigh, quickly driving the knife in and out.

I make eye contact with Kai as Milo approaches her and I know it’s a mistake to watch her. I know the pain of the knife is nothing, but I hate myself for letting him touch her.

Milo stares at her, and I see the disgust she feels for the man. He grabs her shoulders roughly, knowing her left shoulder is still hurt from where he pushed the blade in before. He takes his time, bringing the knife gently to her lips.
