Chapter 8 The fight Alex's POV
The shipment has been running smoothly so far. The team is still working and no one from the Black Snakes, or any gang is in sight.
"Yo, Alex" Camila yelled walking towards me.
"Hey, anything new?" I replied.
"No not really just wondering what the hell the trio are fighting about, know anything?"
"What did they say?" I asked already having an idea.
"Didn't really hear a lot, but something about you that Alessandro doesn't want, so care to explain since he won't?"
"Okay, remember when we went out and I left with that guy?"
"Holy s**t are you dating..?!" Camila yelled making people turn around and look at us.
"Can you shut up for a second?" I told her through my teeth.
"Okay okay so what's the deal?" She asked once again.
So, I proceeded to tell her everything from start to finish. All about me finding out to the plan.
"But Alex, it really is risky. I mean you are the leader, the moment they find out you're pretty much dead" Camila said worried.
"Cam, do you trust me?"
"Yes, but-"
"That's all I need to know"
"I'm scared I'm going to lose you" She said looking down.
"You won't" I promised hoping I can actually keep that promise.
"I need to do this, for the gang... and for mother. Also, you know what? There is something I need you to do" I said trying to lighten the mood.
"Which is?" She asked.
"Spread the word around the gang that there is a match today, Me against little brother" I said smiling.
"Haha, that boy is dumb" she said laughing.
"Tell me about it" I smirked knowing that the victory is already mine.
"Tell about what ladies" I heard a voice from behind.
"About how she'll kick your ass tonight" Cami replied answering Alessandro.
"Oh, is that so mhm?" He chuckled walking closer to Camila.
What the actual f**k is going on?
"So, how is everything going?" I asked cutting the tension between those two. Well.. attempting to, at least.
"We are packing up, so we'll leave in a few" Alessandro replied.
"Great, I'll go keep an eye then" I said walking towards the team and leaving them two alone.
I was really happy at the moment. The gang is surprisingly running smoothly, after we figured everything out with Mike. I got most of the info I needed now it's just a waiting game before taking Elijah and his gang down.
Now I was going to enjoy every second of this, starting tonight after I win that match against brother.

The safe house gym
We always have those little fights, mostly for fun but sometimes to deal with stuff in the gang.
In front of the gang, it was for entertainment tonight.
I mean I had a reputation to keep up.
No one is allowed to question my decisions in here. Well except for my little brother and sometimes Cami.
Otherwise it ends up with a bullet between the eyes, and it has to stay that way in the eyes of everyone else.
Get why they call me the devil now?
In front of the eyes of my gang, I'm this evil, wicked b***h and they had every right to believe that. But they respected me for that and stayed loyal at least.
I liked things better this way. I mean I wouldn't be a leader otherwise if I couldn't earn their trust and respect.
"Ladies and gentlemen! Tonight, we have got a very powerful match. So please give it up. I present to you the one, the only Alessandro Salvatore !" Camila yelled as the crowd of gang members cheered loudly.
"And on the other side, we have got the amazing, the powerful, our leader and boss, Alexandra Salvatore !" She yelled as the crowd cheered even louder and clapped as if their lives depended on it, and well it kind of did..
"You ready?" Camila asked us as Alessandro whispered "kiss ass" enough for just me and Camila to hear making us laugh.
"3 - 2- 1 - FIGHT" Camila and the crowd yelled.
Game on little brother.
We walked around in circles in a while waiting for someone to take the first move, and he threw a punch. I quickly dodged it. He threw a few more and hit me with one.
"Impressive" I smirked as he rolled his eyes & I touched my lip where he hit me.
The next kick he threw got stopped, I held and twisted his leg so he could barley move anymore. When he started to groan in pain I pushed him against the wall and threw a few punches.
He eventually dodged one of them taking my arm and twisting it. He made sure to take this opportunity to try and damage me so I would be weaker for the rest of the battle.
But I already knew his weakness.
His feet and mostly right foot is unsteady while fighting.
Since he has it in the wrong position it was easy to take him down. Then it wasn't a lot of work if he is down.
Just as he tried taking me down I tackled his left foot and made sure he fell before me.
He tried gripping my neck, but I was much smaller and faster which helped me quickly escape.
I was now on top and had most of the control. I threw a few punches and dodged one by taking his arm and pulling on it. If I pulled harder it would have broken, but he escaped my hold.
I tried not to go too hard on him to the point of a serious injury because I needed him in the next couple of days when I would be spending time with Elijah.
Since he is second in command he would be making sure everything is running smoothly and like it's supposed to when I'm not there.
After a few kicks and punches he manged to dodge some and get some in himself.
He did put up quite the fight which was quite impressive. He has pretty fast reflexes, I'll give him that, but he doesn't think through his moves as much as should, which makes it easy to dodge them. The fight had been going on for a few minutes, so I decided to end it soon.
With that being said I held his arm while dodging a punch, punched him in the stomach and flipped him over my shoulder so he landed on the ground.
I took his arm in between my legs and pulled quite a bit until he started screaming and couldn't handle it anymore, so he gave up.
I noticed that he was holding back a tiny bit. He didn't want me to win but he didn't want to hurt me badly either.
The crowd yelled and cheered and let me tell you as bad as I felt, I was proud that I proved my point about being able to handle myself and things were gonna go my way now without any more questions.
Let's just hope it actually goes my way..
