Alice POV
"So this is my student", I recognize this voice anywhere it was Alessandro. Alessandro was going to train me. The older brother of Leo.

What The Acorn!

I look up and down Alessandro, he did have a body built to battle. I'm not surprised that he needs to train me. He seems like the perfect person for the job.

"Done checking me out", Alessandro asks me. I look up to his face and blush in embarrassment. I really didn't mean to check him out. In my defense, I say "I wasn't checking you out. I just wanted to see, who my trainer is".

"Have you never seen your trainer as you like to call me around the house when you are working Miss Alice?"

I was caught off guard "Um... I- I don't... really lo-look at your face... Um, when I see you" I stutter back I had to reply back I didn't want to sound like someone weak. I'm not weak anymore.

Cough Cough

I and Alessandro turn around to see Sandro coughing. " Now that I have got your attention please listen. Alessandro, you will train Alice till she is better than ever. I know she has the potential to be my best fighter. Please train her until her breaking points", Sandro commands Alessandro.

"Sandro you giving me rubbish is not going to allow me to train her. Zip your mouth and let me do what I want. You can sit on the sidelines and watch", Alessandro replies back harshly.

He grabs ahold of my hand and yanks me out of the office. I look back to see Leo holding my hand from the other end. I was a string connecting both brothers together. One took me forcefully but the other loved me.

"Where are you taking me?", I muster up all my courage to ask.

He doesn't reply instead he takes me into an elevator that I did not even know existed and presses some random building. It looks like he has spent a lot of his life here.

Leo grabs ahold of my leg and tucks his face in it. Leo was scared to see his older brother. They always had their differences. Alessandro treated his younger brother as a stranger. They had the same blood running through their veins but they still had seen different aspects of life.

Ting Ting

The door of the elevator slides open. Alessandro steps out I and Leo follow. I look around the area we were on the top floor, everything was glass theme. Machinery for fitness was placed everywhere. The place looked like an expensive gym that I could never afford to go to. Just the rich of the rich could.

"This is the place I will train you. I don't like to be around people a lot so I funded a lot of my money to make this place. You will not train in the basement, you will train on the top floor."

I nod and grab ahold of Leo's arm.

"There is the bathroom to the left go and change your clothes into gym clothes. There will be clothes in the gym to be used", Alessandro tells me. I follow his instruction and go to the bathroom. Leaving Leo on his own, with Alessandro.

That can't be bad they are brothers, right?

...

30 Minutes Later

After taking a long time to get ready mentally and physically. I step out of the bathroom and see Alessandro and Leo standing so far apart from each other, with awkward silence between them.

"If you want me to train you the first thing you need to learn is spend five minutes in the bathroom and be out. Looks like you need to be trained a lot", this man can never say anything nice. He seems like someone, who was raised in the wild and never thought manners.

"Can Leo join? I promise he will not annoy anyone", I ask trying to pull a puppy face that Leo said is the best way to get things I want.

"Sure", was his short reply.

He walked over and grabbed a mat an put it on the floor. He indicated me and Leo to sit on the mat. "Now that you are sitting on the mat we are going to do our warm up, which consists of one hundred burpees, sixty sit-ups, and one hundred push-ups.

...

A Couple of Centuries Later

Warm up is finally over. I feel cramps everywhere. My body is burning.  This was only the warm-up. Leo gave up halfway through and decided to be my support system instead. Fred never made me do this much work out ever. We went straight to training never warm up. This is utter torture. What torture did he have planned for me more?

"Can we carry on tomorrow", I asked helplessly. In the inside, I was begging for mercy.

"No, you need to train. Now we are going to the fun stuff. Grab ahold of some boxing gloves and come start throwing punches on the boxing sack", this man has no emotions. He doesn't seem to care if I am dying.

Helplessly, I go and grab boxing gloves and start throwing weak punches on the boxing sack. I had no energy left to fight. I was done for.

"Throw those punches harder", I start to punch harder as he instructed me to do so. I look back t Leo and he had grabbed ahold of some boxing gloves. He put them on his tiny hands and started to throw punches on another boxing sack, with a look of determination. It put a smile on my face. I love my little man.

"Throw harder punches. Your so weak no wonder your parents didn't want you!", exclaims Alessandro at me.

"Don't you dare get my parents involved in this!", I shout back. He has no idea what I've been through and he has the guts to speak about my parents like this.

But for all, I know they may have never wanted me.

With the anger towards him and myself. I take ahold of Leo's arm and go to the elevator and press the button to leave.
