“A club. I found a new one that I think you would like. By the end of the night you’ll be drowning in about a million.”

“You’re joking?” I raise any eyebrow at Kayden as we walk towards the club.

This club is flashy but it’s in the middle of the fucking desert so that no one can spot it. We are miles away from the closest town.

When we get inside the club, some song by Yeat is playing while two men go at each other in the cage.

Men and women in formal outfits are watching them with envy and curiosity. They are all probably buyers or work for some illegal shit that Marco was in.

“Think you can beat one of them?” Kayden asks, looking at the side of my face as I observe their movements.

“You know I can.”

“Wanna fight?” Kayden bumps his shoulder into mine and I just smirk and turn my head to look at him.

“Get me the worst fighter you can.”

Kayden smiles. “I knew you liked challenges, Hayden.” Kayden walks away from the cage and I follow him. “You have one right after this with him.”

“Tell me about him,” I demand while we walk towards what I assume is the dressing rooms.

“He has killed. Heard he works for some mafia group. He earns a lot of cash while working for them.”

Kayden shows me the room and tells me to get ready. He also says that the fight is set up and someone should come and get me in a few minutes. I throw the sweater on the couch and start wrapping my hands with the wraps they provide.

There’s a knock on the door at the same time I finish wrapping my hand. “Come in,” I say and then the door opens.

The ref comes in and reminds me of the rules. The rules here are much different, cleaner, but he says there is always a way around the rules, you just have to find it.

He walks me out of the dressing rooms and leads me to the inside of the cage where the fighter is already waiting.

As I stand in front of him I explore his body, making sure to mark sensitive areas I can hit. He looks big, muscles bulging from everywhere and veins running down his arms. He looks like he could snap anyone in half.

I can take him.

He has a few inches on me and I know if I move fast enough I can get him on the floor.

“Fight!”

I lunge at him, throwing a punch to the throat because the ref didn’t say anything about that. Xavier, his name is, falls to the floor while coughing. I get on top of him, straddling his hips and start going at his face.

He keeps his arms up protecting himself but it doesn’t stop me from getting him on his ribs and any other area on his body.

He gets me off him and we start just throwing punches at one another while circling each other like we’re animals.

I use his body as a punching bag, not caring when he gains the upper hand a couple of times.

I block everything out as I hear only her haunting voice.

“When did you get this?” I ask Jaclyn while stroking the small punching bag that’s inked on her rib.

I lean closer to her ribs and kiss the spot making her shudder and grind on top of me as I hold on to her waist.

“A week ago. I wanted to surprise you.”

I run my lips up her skin until my mouth is on her, “You definitely surprised me. I love it.” I take her lips in mine and ravish her whole.

“Happy Birthday, Hayden. I love you.”
