The nerves never go away. My twentieth professional fight and I’m still jittery with adrenaline.

My body stills at the sound of Sienna’s sweet voice, It can’t be.

“I’m his girlfriend. I have to see him. It’s an emergency. Just let me through.” Her voice creeps louder and louder.

Fuck this.

“Let her through. Now!” I bellow, and the guards part like the red sea, allowing Sienna to come into view. Her icy blue eyes pierce into me, and my breath hitches as she launches toward me. She’s glowing. I can hardly believe my eyes. Her face lights up as she reaches me, her infectious smile brings my heart back to life. She leaps into my arms and I dart out to catch her,damn gloves getting in the way.

Sienna’s legs hook around my waist. How in that black dress, I don’t know. She nuzzles into my neck, and her warm breath beats against my skin, sending shockwaves straight to my cock. I bury my head into the top of her hair, taking in my favorite scent. Her. That peach washes over me, and all the nerves, and the dread dissipates in this moment. I see no one else but her.

“I love you, Keller. I love you so fucking much. Without you, I can't live. I’m miserable. I feel like half of my heart is missing.”

I choke on a sob and bury my head further into her.

“I forgive you, Keller. Now, please forgive yourself. Let the darkness go. Drop that mask. I want it all, forever.” She rambles almost breathlessly as she gets her words out.

The best words anyone’s ever said to me.

“Oh, Baby,” I croak out.“I fucking love you, Sienna. I need you like I need air to breathe. Without you, my life’s meaningless. You, my Queen, are my light in the darkness. And I promise I will spend every damn day of the rest of my life worshiping you.”

“Keller, wrap it up. It’s time,” Grayson announces from beside me. I am so wrapped up in Sienna, I almost forget where I am.

Her gaze sears with mine, her eyes swimming with emotion, with love. I see the flicker of desire burning in the background. She peers over my shoulder and then brings her lips to meet my earlobe, gently grazing along the lobe.

“Go out there and show them how a World Champion fights. Then come and find me and show me how one fucks,” she says in a sultry tone.

A hunger glimmers in her hooded eyes, and I quickly steal a kiss, slamming my lips to hers as she moans into my mouth.

My dirty girl is certainly back.

Unwrapping her legs, she slides down my body and straightens her dress. Her red fuck me heels accentuate her toned legs, making my mouth water.

Damn. Do I have plans involving them later.

“I’ll see you on the other side, Princess. Practice screaming my name at the top of your lungs.” I give her a wink as she slaps my ass when I breeze past her.

I chuckle to myself as I make my way to the walkout. This fucking woman will be the death of me. My firecracker’s found her spark and now I’m minutes away from the biggest fight of my life, sporting a semi.

I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Now to win this fight and get the girl… forever this time.

The MGM Grand is full to the rafters, over sixteen thousand fans cheering as I make my way to the walkout. The crowd goes silent as the lights shine on the walkway. It’s now or never.

DMC’s X Gon’ Give it to Ya blasts through the arena, sending chills down my spine.

Security gives me the nod. I bow my hooded head and make the slow walk to the ring.

The crowd cheers my name, I’m the home fighter and I have their support. Yet none of that matters. All that matters is having my woman behind me, fighting in my corner.

I duck under the ropes and stride to my red corner. Grayson and my team are all sporting my signature black and red branding. We stand and wait for my opponent, Dmitry Selimov. He stands three inches shorter and ten pounds lighter. He might have the upper hand on speed, but I match that tenfold with my power.

The last few weeks I’ve trained. I’ve studied. On my feet, I am lighter. I’m ready.

He enters the ring, his bald head reflecting against the bright lights.
