Adriano’s POV
I was in my study with, Nik debriefing what happened tonight.
"It could have been way worse if you didn't have quick reflexes," Nik said.
I nodded. “I can’t say the same about, Mateo,” I said.
“Mateo has always been f*****g slow,” Nik replied. “he could have easily dodged that swing if he’d been paying attention.”
He wasn’t wrong. Mateo was f*****g slow.
When that, Russian fucker took a swing at me with a knife we didn’t know he had on him, my reflexes kicked in almost immediately and I swerved to the side, narrowly missing a blade to my face.
Mateo, who was standing beside me did get slashed by the knife before I could disarm the fucker and once I did, the last thing on my mind was extracting any sort of information from him so I slit his throat with his own knife.
