Mafia Wife

Chapter 18

I woke to a cold piece of metal sitting against my neck. I knew better than to move. I just opened my eyes to see Leo straddling my waist pressing the knife against my neck.

"I really do hate you sometimes." I cursed looking up at his smirking face.

"You just gonna let this knife press against your neck?" He asked pressing it slightly harder.

I looked at my options trying to be smart against Leo. I knew I was stronger than him so grabbing his wrists would be stupid. He was too far up to be able to knee him in the balls. If I can stretch long enough I can kick him in the head.

I decided that would be my only option. I swung my leg up hard kicking him in the back of the head. This causing him to flex more towards me. I grabbed his hands pulling them away from my neck and tossed him on the floor.

He rubbed the back of his head before letting out a chuckle. "Very good babe." He stood up before retreating the knife back into his pocket. "Get up and ready for training."

I shook my head as he walked out of my room. I walked over to my closet pulling out a pair of tight black shorts and a sports bra. I slipped them on before pulling my hair back in a pony tail. I slipped on shoes before walking downstairs.

Leo was finishing his coffee as I walked down. We both walked down to the gym to meet up with Noah and Tay.

We walked into the back room were there were knives spread across the table. "Pick your poison." Leo said while pulling his knife out of his pocket.

I walked up to the knives picking up each and everyone, trying to find the one that fit best in my hand. I picked up the matte black one that fit best. I swung it around a little and found it didn't slip even a slight in my hand.

"Good. Now come here." Leo said standing in the middle of the room. "Try to cut me." He taunted standing a foot away from me.

"Are you crazy?" I asked crossing my arms.

"Some say I am." He shrugged before lunging at me with the knife straight out.

I jumped back dodging the blade before it grazed me. I smirked and held the blade in my hand ready to strike. I waited for what looked like a good time and went to slash his chest.

He quickly moved before disarming me. "Why can't you show me that." I whined picking up my knife.

He rolled his eyes before showing me. He grabbed the hand that held the knife by the wrist shoving it back while grabbing the knife with the other hand.

"Let me try." He swung the knife and a grabbed his wrist doing the same thing he did to me. He smirked and we spared with the knife for a bit.

"Alright put down the knife and come here." He walked over to the table that was facing a bunch a wooden targets. He picked up five knives before throwing each into a target. I watched as each hit the bullseye in the middle.

He walked over to me before placing his hands on my waist. He lead me over to the line taped on the floor before picking up five knives. I put the garder on, knowing we were gonna be using knives.

He smirked and set four of them in the garder before handing me one. "Breathe," he whispered in my ear causing my breath to hitch. He raised my hand up in a throwing position before pausing. "Once you're fingers let go, breathe."

I did as he said and threw the knife breathing as I let go. I watched as it soared into the wood landing not too far off from the bullseye. I felt him smirk against my ear before whispering, "Now all you need is a little confidence."
