Liam

Ancient History

Rex stands in the corner of my small dressing room, his chest puffed out, as his arms remain folded across his chest.

“Anything you want to tell me?” his voice is a low growl, which I’ve learned in the two years that I’ve known him, means he’s pissed.

“My face hurts,” I tell him honestly, because dammit, there’s no sense in lying. I’ve been hit in the face lots of times in my life, but tonight was a whole new exception. Usually, I take a hit, give a few hits, and then read my opponent well enough to block the rest of their shots. I’m quick on my feet, and good at reading people. That’s usually my secret weapon.

But this fight today, was something else completely. I got my ass kicked in every square inch of that cage. And since not blocking the shots was part of my agreement, I felt every single hit that I took, and trust me, there were a lot of them.

“Yeah?” Rex snorts. “Well, my eyes fucking hurt, after watching you take all those blows, like a little bitch.”

I’m immediately on my feet.

“What did you just call me?” My entire body aches, but I no longer give a fuck. Rex is way out of line, calling me names. He’s got no right. No fucking right at all. He may be my trainer, but that’s where this relationship ends. And I’ll never just sit and take a verbal beating from him, even though I just willingly took an ass kicking in the ring.

“You heard me.” His hands fist at his sides, his face beet red and now only a couple of inches away from mine. “You threw that fight. You can admit it, or you can lie to me, but I know exactly what you did. You made yourself look like a bitch in that ring, Liam. I just hope it was fucking worth it.”

He storms past me, the door slamming hard behind him. My body is shaking, as anger courses through me.

Rex talks to me as if I have so many other choices. He doesn’t understand what it’s like, being nineteen years old and having two people completely dependent on me for survival. He has no right to call me names. None whatsoever.

There was far more money to be made throwing that fight, than there would have been if I would have won. Yeah, maybe I broke some rules, and played dirty today, but the cash in my hand is going to pay my rent for the next six months on a place outside of the Bricks. A place where people aren’t getting shot on my doorstep. A place where my baby sister can sleep at night in peace.

I shrug both he and his words off, as the door to my dressing room opens again, but this time, instead of it being Rex storming through in a blaze of fury, it’s Letty. Slinking her way in, and catching my attention with her sexy as sin, skintight outfit on.
