I end up sweating, my breathing is accelerated, my pulse skyrockets. I put my hands against my knees so I can recover just a little of the life that I just threw down the ravine in this training, I was even left soulless. Tamara changes the punching bag, throws me the knives that I put in the compartment of the belt around my thigh.
I wear a loose dress that I don't mind moving with each of my blows, the clothes stick to the top, but I am prepared to be able to develop my strategy and planning when it comes to having a hand-to-hand combat. body against someone. She prepares, Guillermo is behind evaluating the entire moment.
—Come on Tamara, I'm ready to fight you.
"I know, ma'am," she thunders the bones in her neck, "I'm so sure of that that I know you're going to beat me, and you must take the blows of life, the blows of each exquisite hand-to-hand combat."
—He's going to fight me.
Guille intervenes with the bandages around my knuckles so as not to do too much damage, I shake my head several times until I turn around and see the four brothers approaching in style. Each one carries the imposing bearing that they always carry, Ginevra pushes her hair aside, lightly copying what her brothers do when they fix their hair by running their fingers through those dark strands.
—It's time to see how our training worked, I want to see how you work those knives Emily.
—I want to see your strategies, I hope you have polished them, Fiore.
I turn to see Ginevra, in her case she raises her thumbs to me with a smile on her lips.
—Remember your strongest tool.
The beauty, I end up with it in my head.
—I'll just see, I'll have something for you later.
The four of them stand in a row looking at the big burly man full of muscle behind me who is wearing a training uniform nothing like mine. I think it has all the advantages, I'm going to lose, I'm starting to doubt.
—Will you allow this?
"Principessa," he whispers, "you asked me for this, outside you are not only going to face women of your size and build, you are going to have men wanting to kill you." It shows that you have learned so much, it shows that if we take you to Apulia you will not die.
-I am going to lose...
—Only if you believe it, my brothers and the escort have taught you what is necessary to be able to kill five men like Guillermo, you can, it's just a matter of if you want, love.
I carry pure knives on the belt that surrounds my thigh, he carries a loaded pistol on his waist, one more disadvantage.
"Are you ready, Miss Fiore?"
—No, I think...
He approaches, immediately what I have learned in almost this entire week and the previous ones comes to mind, every piece of information, strategy, and by the time I look at myself I am already in the correct position avoiding his blows, which are hard. I have to look up at him, but also out of the corner of my eye I catch those spots that I can hit, I sweep his feet, he's about to fall, I take him by the hand and roll on the grass to bend him like Tamara taught me to do.
—Damn!
He complains when I overstretch his muscles, I retreat to stand up and he grabs my abdomen so he can slam me to the ground, he's about to hit me in the face. I block him, put my fingers in his eyes and with my elbow I hit him in the nose that makes him bleed.
“Miss, whenever you have the opportunity to attack, take it,” Tamara said that day. Do not be afraid of the blood or the pain that the blow may cause, your enemy is never going to be tempted with you when it comes to hitting him, why would you be tempted?
A lady.
We build a lady.
A cruel lady.
I take it off of me, I unsheath the knives that my own head is responsible for making my skillful fingers move on their handles. When he gets up and I'm about to attack, I block his blow using my arm on top of my head, and he hits me with his closed fist against my abdomen. I snort, I stagger, but seeing them doubting my abilities is what doesn't stop me.
I'm a warrior right now who doesn't want those viewers watching her to doubt her, they don't. Let other people doubt it, but they don't because they are my team, they are my family, they are a safe place for me and I myself must show them that I can also keep myself safe and keep them safe.
Strategy and planning.
