Gauarded hearts

Chapter 13

Jasmine

7 hits and he's toast, I didn't even break a sweat. He's out cold too. Shit.

"FUCK! Rosen." He doesn't move. God damnit. I run to the sink I have in my gym and get a cold cloth I run back over and place it on his head. I check his pulse and he's still alive. Mabey I should have gone a little easier on him. My fight was a 3. I should have hit him with a 2. Marcos comes running in.

"Marcos good you're here. I may have knocked him out way too hard. I even went easy on him. 7 hits and he's out. I need someone who actually challenges me. He's still alive, but he's out." I say shaking my head. I never needed a bodyguard. I can handle my own weight. But my family thinks I'm this fragile little girl still. I didn't totally lie about my personal trainer, he is away, but at a hospital recovering from broken ribs. I've almost killed all of my personal trainers. Some know me as the Deadly Shadow, but they don't know the identity of Shadow. I've fought 10 men from the strongest army at once with just my fists. And I only used my level 5 strength. I'm literally the best at everything. That's why I'm called the Shadow. I strike first and hard knocking them out or killing them in one punch if I go full force. I look down and Rosen is still out. I sigh and pick him up and toss him over my shoulder. I exit my ring and walk towards the couch I lay him down. Then I go towards my medicine cabinet and get the smelling salts I keep in a jar. Then I head back towards the couch and pause because Marcos is watching me.

"Smelling salts, helps people wake up if I knock them out, usually does the trick, you're probably wondering how I managed to throw him over my shoulder like he was a piece of paper. I've been able to lift twice my weight since I was 8. It may look like I don't have muscle but I do." I say walking closer to Rosen. Marcos takes the salts from my hand and places it under Rosen's nose, he wakes up.

"FUCK!" Rosen says

"Sorry buddy, I even went easy on you, I should have gone easier on ya. Well, now rest here's water." I say Marcos points at me and then points to the ring I smile so big he narrows his dark green eyes and points again. I start walking towards the ring. Once I get in I re-adjust my gloves and Marcos enters my ring with his gloves on he took off his jacket and I see his gun in his holster. 

"Jasmine, that was easy!" Rosen yells from the couch I reply with a laugh. I throw a punch and Marcos blocks it. He smirks. I smile, he throws a hard punch and I block it with ease. He throws another punch at my side and I flinch. I throw a hard punch to his face and he stumbles. He regains his balance and tries to kick out my leg but I grab it and twist him backward knocking him to the ground. He groans. my strength stays at a 3 for about 20 minutes, then I kick it up a notch and round-kick him in the side he collapses and falls to the mats. And he taps out. Hes breathing heavily and I'm breathing normally. I help him up and smile. I could have ended him sooner but I needed to let out some stress.  Marcos narrows his eyes at me.

"I know, I was going easy on you. I didn't want to knock you out the first punch I threw. " Marcos rolls his eyes. I walk over to my boxing bag and punch it at half my strength. It rips off its chains and nocks into the wall breaking a hole in the wall. I turn around facing Marcos and Rosen. Marcos raises a brow and nods. Rosen drops his jaw.

"That boy's is only half my strength. And the bag is 300lbs." I walk over to the bag laying on the ground and pick it up and reattach it to the chains.

-INCOMING CALL FROM BROTHER-

I groan and walk over to my bench and answer.

"Jakey what do you want now, I'm in the middle of training, and I may or may not have knocked Rosen out cold, but hes fine now."

"Well shit, um so dad needs you to run an errand to the Flames bar on L street, to fire an employee and shut down a drug den inside the bar. Also, you're the owner of all bars and clubs." Jake says.
