"Well, y-you know the r-rules. LET'S GET THIS FIGHT STARTED!"

Now

Alexandra's POV

I watched as the ref positioned himself inbetween both me and Killer. He glanced at us both and gulped a smirk creeping up on my face.

I faced Killer reading him, picking out where I would attack. It looked like he was doing the same thing. We both studied each other looking for anything that may help us have the upper hand during this fight.

Our eyes trailed up each others bodies until they met. I saw it again. That rare softness. He gave me a small smile and I was very tempted to give him one back if it wasn't for my training. Rule #2 show no emotion.

I have lived by these rules my entire life and I wasn't going to stop now. They were all I've ever known.

I did however offer him my hand to shake. Something I rarely did, unless I either respected you or if you were one of my friends.

The crowd gasped dramatically and I rolled my eyes. What is it with people these days. I'm still human you know!

I saw the shock I'm Killers eyes before he took my hand and gave it a firm shake. I gave him a nod and the ref cleared his throat.

We let go of each others hand and got into our stances. The ref lifted his arm and took one last glance at us before standing back, letting it fall signalling the start of the fight.

We circled around each other, he was still reading me whilst I had already analysed him.

He was struggling, his eyebrows furrowed in confusion and annoyance as he couldn't find a single weakness on me.

I smirked at this. Years of training had taught me how to hide my weaknesses to appear superior to my opponent.

He was starting to get frustrated with trying to figure me out like I knew he would, and he started off with the first hit aiming for my jaw with his fist.

I skilfully dogged his blow and he tumbled forward with the force of his hit. He looked surprised and was about to turn around only to be met with a strong punch on his cheekbone.

He stumbled backwards and I watched the blood trickle down his cheek. He grunted and touched his cheek wiping off the blood.

Extending my fist, I aimed for the front of his nose whilst he was still in a daze. Before my fist could come into contact he quickly grabbed my arm and twisted it as I swung, causing me to retract my arm.

My arm tingled and felt numb like when you wack your funny bone on the side of a table. Yh not a pleasant feeling.

Minor setback, but nothing I cant handle.

He shifted his legs, a clear indication that he was getting ready to use them. I was proven correct as his right leg charged at me at the speed of light.

Without even thinking I grabbed it and locked it punching his stomach winding him. He tumbled back breathing heavily.

However strong he may be, his potential is held back by how slow his reaction time is. Nothing some good old training won't fix.

I took the opportunity to move in close. I slid one leg behind his, grabbing him by his shoulders. I pushed him backwards whilst sweeping my leg behind his ankle, successfully pinning him to the ground.

Leaving no space for him to react, I immediately straddled him and threw punch after punch to his face. I got a few good punches in before he reversed positions so I was on my back and he was the one punching me.

My defence was good, making it hard for him to get any punches in. Suddenly I felt a sharp pain on my jaw.

That'll definately leave a bruise in the morning.

Before he could do anymore damage, I caught his fist mid - punch, causing his hold on me to weaken. I took the opportunity and rolled out of his hold and got on my feet.

He got on his feet too and we both circled each other again. This time I charged at him. I made it look like I was going to punch him, before getting close and roundhouse kicking him on his chest.

He was out of breath and tumbled down on his knees. I brought my knee and rammed it into his nose causing a waterfall of blood to leak out. He tried getting up using his hands to push himself off the floor, but he fell down too dizzy to do so.

I kept my stance waiting if he would tap out or continue. To my disappointment he tapped out and the fight was over. The ref grabbed my arm and lifted it indicating I was the winner. The crowd - who I had forgotten all about - went crazy screaming my name.

I glared at the ref and he let go of my arm, gulping and saying a quick sorry. I smirked and took a bow before exiting the ring, making my way back to my private room.

I looked back to see Killer being carried out the ring by the club's medical team in a stretcher. We locked eyes and he gave me a small smile, his face stained red with blood. I returned it before leaving to see my manager.

As soon as I opened the training room, all I could hear was Bree squealing excitedly a huge smile on her face and an even bigger bag in her hands.

"Congrats! I knew you could do it! Look at this bag of cash. Girl do you know how much they betted on you!" I laughed, amused by her excitement.

"Hmmmm. How much is there Bree?" She threw the bag to me and I caught it. Looking through, countless $100 bills threatened to seep out and overflowed onto the floor.

"That's $750,000 girl! As in, that's the most money people have ever betted on a fight in this ring ever!" My face held a satisfied expression and I grabbed a handful of bills from the top of the bag. I folded them neatly and tucked them in my back pocket.

I threw the rest of the bag back to Bree and she looked at me confused. "What are you doing? Don't you want the rest?" She asked surprised.

"I've got more than enough money so you take it. And I don't want to argue about this so you take it or I force you to." She sighed knowing I wasn't going to budge and nodded her head.

I smirked and she gave me one last hug before I left the ring, ready to go back home.

Time skip

The time was now 1:00. I climbed through my window and closed it shut quietly behind me. I took off my disguise and made my way to the bathroom for a quick shower.

After my shower I got changed into some pyjamas and passed out on my bed, dreading the fact that I had to go to school tommorow.

*

*

I woke up to the obnoxiously loud ringtone on my alarm clock.

Uugh school.

I dragged myself out of bed and hurriedly locked myself in my bathroom before anyone entered my room and accidentally saw me without my contacts in.

I grabbed them from the cupboard and expertly slid them in. I blinked a few times and my green eyed self was staring back at me. I washed my face and did my normal morning routine. Sighing I went to get changed into some clothes.

I was not looking to impress anyone so I wore something for myself. My goal is to just keep my head down and do my own thing, to get this school year over and done with as quick as possible.



I got dressed and checked the time. 7:45. Not bad. Making my way downstairs I grabbed my bag and slid my phone in my pocket. I'd packed my bag the day before so it had everything I needed for school already inside it.

I made my way to the kitchen were the twins and the rest of my family were already situated. Matteo was happily cooking some breakfast whilst Elias was studying, probably for some test he had.

Dad and Alfonso were having a deep conversation that stopped suddenly when I entered the room. Suspicious.

Damon, well Damon looked dead to put it nicely.

His normal intimidating and angry aura was thrown out the window when I saw him dressed in sweats, his hair messy and he was whining like a baby about how he didn't want to go to school with every bite of cereal he shovelled in his mouth.

I honestly had to stop myself from laughing as I stared at him whining like a baby. I smirked and he looked at me and scoweled. I couldn't help it anymore, I burst out laughing. I clutched my stomach and pointed at him.

When I had finally stopped laughing I had tears in my eyes and noticed that the whole room was silent. Confused, I furrowed my eyebrows and looked at everyone who were looking at me in shock.

"What?" When I spoke they all cleared their throats and my dad decided to speak first.

"It's just that, we haven't heard you laugh so genuinely like that since you were a baby."

I didn't know what to say, so I gave him a little smile and sat down next to Damon. A bowl of cereal was placed in front of me and I began eating it up.

"Hey Damon, did you get my schedule?"

"Uhh, no. We'll have to stop at the office and get it there."

"Yh that's fine." I finished off my cereal at the same time the boys had finished theirs and we all walked together to the garage.

"Both of you get in my car, I've forgotten my phone upstairs." Yelled Damon who was half way up the stairs.

"Not again." Said Elias rolling his eyes and we both made our way to the garage and sat in Damon's car. I was in the front and Elias was in the back reading some textbooks.

"Do you have a test or something?" I asked him, genuinely confused as to why someone would willingly like to bombard themselves with knowledge so early in the morning.

"Huh, oh, no. I just like the topic so I want to learn more about it." He spoke quietly as if fearing I would judge him or something.

I was but that's besides the point.

"That's cool, what topic is it?" His eyes lit up and his mouth turned up in a big smile.

"Um, it's computer science, it's my favourite subject. I've always wanted to study computers and maybe even create my own tech in the future." He rambled on and it brought a smile to my face seeing him so enthusiastic about this.

"Well, I have no doubt you will do just that, you sound like you really do love the subject." He smiled brightly. "I really do."

I smiled back at him, just as Damon returned, opening the door and sitting in the drivers seat.

"What are you two smiling about?" He asked while starting up the car and reversing out of the garage onto the street.

"Oh, we were just talking about what Eli wanted to do when he left school, what are you thinking of doing when you leave school? I asked Damon, who looked deep in thought as he drove.

"Hmmm, I was thinking a mechanic or umm a doctor." He bit his lip and rubbed the back of his neck.

"Thats awesome, but why are you embarrassed?" He turned pink and sighed.

"Umm, well, Elias is the clever twin, I'm just the one who has a short temper. No one would take me seriously if I came out and said I wanted to be a doctor. They'd probably think I wouldn't be able to do it or something." He trailed off at the end and looked back at the road ahead of him.

I saw the sadness and insecurity in his eyes. It honestly made me sad to think he would doubt himself like this. I looked in the rear-view mirror as the car halted in some traffic, and saw Elias with a sympathetic and sad look, looking at his twin.

"Well, isn't that more of a reason to go for it." He looked at me confused, trying to think of what I was getting at.

"I mean, don't you want to prove them wrong, prove to them that you can do it and see the look on the people's faces who doubted you when you succeed, because I know you will. You're worth more than you let yourself believe. And besides, you do have the talent, take for instance when you wrapped my hands, they looked almost professional. So don't ever doubt yourself or compare yourself to anyone because we're all different, and have different skill sets. We're all unique in our own way." I looked out the window as I spoke.

I looked back at them and saw that they were both staring at me eyes wide. "What?"

"That was beautiful. Have you ever thought about becoming a motivational speaker." I laughed at this and they both looked at me with a serious look in their eyes.

"Wait, you're being serious?" I asked them eyebrows raised.

"I mean, Yh, you've got a knack for it, and you're stubborn, convincing, loud, and can talk for days if you wanted to." I elbowed Damon in the side and both of them laughed.

"Yh but you're missing the fact that I hate people with a passion, and besides I don't want to waste my lungs being all motivational and shit, cause that's just not who I am, except with people I actually care about." They shrugged their shoulders and Elias spoke up.

"So what do you want to do when you leave school sorella? I've seen you're grades and they're even better than mine, heck you could become valedictorian if you keep working as you are." He spoke proudly.

I shrugged my shoulders actually thinking about the question. The car began moving again and silence filled the air.

What did I want to do?

"I've never thought about it." I said as we parked into school.

More like you've never had a choice before.

I got out the car before they could ask me anymore questions. Oh how I wish I didn't.

Everyone was looking at me. And I mean EVERYONE.

Even the teachers were gazing out their windows pointing at me, thinking I couldn't see.

Shit.

That's when they started. The whispers.

Oh how I hate the whispers. Like if you wanna say something, by all means say it to my face so I can at least have a bit of respect for you before I beat you up.

I groaned and shut the car door, grabbing my bag. The twins stood in front of me smirking.

"God, please don't tell me you're both popular." They chuckled and I groaned even more resting my head in defeat on Damon's car.

"Hey careful with the car. And to answer you're question, we're the most popular boys in the school, now come on sis." He dragged me into the school as everyone watched and whispered.

Do they not have anything better to do?

A group of girls stood in front of the twins and whispered, whilst another girl pushed past them and stood in front of me hands on her hips scowling.

Dramatic much.

"And just what do you think you're doing with my boyfriend slut." She screeched right inside of my fucking ear. I rubbed them whilst cringing.

"This annoying bitch gonna make me deaf. Screeching like a fucking pterodactyle." I said to the twins.

"WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME BITCH!"

I glared at her whilst rubbing my ears. "Are you hard of hearing, cause I fucking asked you if you were a damn pterodactyle, what is the reason for you to be screaming so early in the morning. NO ONE FUCKING CARES IF YOU'RE HAVING BOYFRIEND DRAMA! Just shut the fuck up and move along, go speak to your boyfriend in private rather than screeching in front of everyone making a big deal of nothing." I spoke in disbelief at the creature in front of me.

"That rich coming from the slut who stole my boyfriend!" I looked at her like she'd just told me she was a unicorn who farted glitter out her butt. I hadn't noticed, but we were staring to form a crowd.

Nosy little fuckers.

"Miss gurl I have no idea who you or your boyfriend are, so can you move the fuck out my way, I'm only gonna ask this nicely once." She laughed loudly like a witch and stopped when no one laughed with her.

She turned around dramatically. "Laugh with me minions!" The girls behind her who she pushed past before looked at each other and laughed awkwardly, but one look from miss plastic in front of me and they started laughing uncontrollably.

I don't know if it was because of fear or miss plastic's smudged makeup on her teeth and flared nostrils that made them laugh like that. One thing for sure was that they did not like this girl one bit. So why hang out with her? Plastic put her hand up and her 'minions' stopped laughing.

"Now listen here, it looks like you're new here so I'll only tell you this once. That one" she pointed at Damon who looked like he was going to puke any second just looking at her face. "Is mine."

She looked down at Damon's hand holding my arm when he dragged me into school and glared. Honestly it looked like she was constipated.

"So get the fuck away from what's mine bitch." I looked at Damon and Damon looked at me. I could see Elias giving us warning glances from the corner of my eye.

We smirked and both burst out laughing, clutching our stomach's, rocking back and forth.

"OoOo LaUgH wItH mE mInIoNs!" I mocked in a high pitch voice.

"BiTcH sTaY aWaY fRoM wHaT's MiNe!" Damon mocked in his version of a high pitch voice that made us both start laughing uncontrollably again.

Elias rubbed his temple sighing, but you could see the smirk on his face as he tried to hold in his laughter. Soon everyone in the hallway was laughing and we looked back at miss pterodactyle wannabe plastic's face to see that she was red and scowling at me.

"Whatever. Watch your back bitch." She flipped her hair turning around and leaving with her 'minions' who were trying to hold in their laughter behind her.

"Ciao cagna!" (Bye bitch!) I called after her.

Elias grabbed both me and a laughing Damon to what I conclude is the way to the office.

"Great we've got another Damon in the house." Me and Damon just shrugged our shoulders smirking.

The bell rang and crowd had left to go to class so it was just us three in the corridor.

Suddenly Elias stopped in his tracks causing both me and Damon to slam into his back making us tumble onto the floor.

"Woah, watch it!" Damon screamed as I rubbed my head. "What the hell Elias!"

He helped us up looking worried and deep in thought. "Do you know Italian." He said once I stood up. This caused Damon to also tense up and give Elias a look when he thought I wasn't looking.

"What? No?" I spoke acting confused. "You said Ciao cagna, that's Italian." I looked at him and quickly thought of an excuse at the top of my head.

"No, I don't know Italian. I only know how to swear in different languages, Italian being one of them." They both visibly relaxed and I decided to mess with them a bit.

"But why do you ask?" I asked sounding innocent, but on the inside I was smirking.

They tensed up and looked at each other before answering. "No reason, let's just go get your schedule, we're late for class." He turned around quickly and dragged both me and Damon to the office.

Way to change the subject guys.

I decided to comply and let him drag me. When we reached the door instead of knocking they barged in scaring the office lady on duty.

They turned cold and Damon spoke. "Schedule for Alexandra Ferrari, and make it quick, we haven't got all day."

The lady hastily printed out my schedule in a matter of seconds, her hands shaking, she gave it to me in my hands. I gave her a small smile and she looked down, causing me to frown.

We left the room and I checked my first lesson. "What've you got?"

"Umm I got English first lesson." I groaned and they laughed at me, leading me to my lesson.

"It's not funny! Why do children have to use their brain so early in the morning. Hell I wouldn't even mind if I had English second lesson I just hate first lessons. I'm always tired." I complained and they just listened to me ranting on not saying a word until we got to the classroom door.

"Is it too late to drop out?" I asked turning around giving them my puppy dog eyes and sweet smile. They looked at each other smirking and opened the door pushing me in. They ran off too their classes before I could retaliate.

"Fucking cowards!" I screamed after them.

"Excuse me miss. We do not use that kind of language in my classroom." Spoke a voice from behind me. I rolled my eyes and lazily turned around to see a classroom full of children and one angry teacher staring at me.

"Do you not have anything to say for yourself?" The teacher asked.

"Oh fuck. Yh sorry sir!" The teachers face turned red and the classroom broke out into laughter. I looked around in confusion.

Was it something I said, or..?

"It's miss" the teacher hissed.

"Oh shit! Yh sorry si- umm MISS! Yh um miss." Shit.

I gave her an apologetic look, whilst she glared at me.

"Just get to your seat. You must be our new student. Tell us your name then go sit next to Mr Blackwood." She scolded.

"Alexandra Ferrari." The class went silent and the whispers began again. The teacher went pale and so did some of the student at the front of the class.

"Is there a problem?" Silence, again. The teacher cleared her throat and began speaking.

"U-umm no p-problem m-miss Ferrari j-just sit d-down." I raised my eyebrow and sat at the only empty seat next to a boy who had his head in his bag looking for something.

I ignored him and layed my head on the desk trying to get some extra sleep. I was interrupted from my slumber by someone poking me in the side. I lifted my head up a bit to see who would do such a thing and was met with none other than Luka smiling at me.

"Ignoring me are we, sweetheart." He said cockily. I lifted my head fully and stared at him.

"Sorry, didn't see you there, sweetheart." He gasped placing his hand on his heart.

"Do I really mean so little to you." He sniffles dramatically causing us both to laugh. We were interrupted by a male version of the Barbie deciding to talk to us.

"Hey Luka, how do you know the hot new girl?" A blonde hair jock sitting in front of me said as he eyed me up and down creepily.

I was about to say something but Luka beat me to it. "Lay off Chad, she's not one of your whores that you can fuck around with." He growled putting his arm around me protectively causing Chad to turn around giving me one last look and a wink.

No beating people up. No beating people up. No beating people up.

I was cut off with my inner monologue when I saw Luka's hand balled up in a fist about to connect with the back of Chad's head. I couldn't let that happen.

Everyone knew that the second son of the English Mafia's punches were deadly. One punch and little Chad here could end up in a coma. I had to stop it, no matter how good that sounded right now.

The chairs were wooden which was a good thing because it meant that I was able to quickly kick it with my leg causing the chair leg to break. Chad crashed onto the floor and groaned as he hit his head on the table.

Be grateful, it could have been much worse.

Luka's fist just missed his head and he huffed angrily. "CHAD! ARE YOU DISRUPTING MY LESSON! TO THE PRINCIPLES OFFICE IMMEDIATELY! screamed the teacher.

What is it with this school and everyone being loud.

"Miss he's bleeding, I think he has to see a nur-"

"YOU CAN JOIN HIM AMANDA, BOTH OF YOU LEAVE MY CLASSROOM NOW!" a crying Amanda and a dizzy Chad both left the classroom together.

"Now where were we......"

Skip to lunch

I had just gotten some food from the lunch queue and was finding somewhere to sit.

I was debating whether I should sit in the right corner of the room or the left when my tray was grabbed and a pair of hands guided me to a table. Normally I would have pushed them off me but I recognised these hand.

"Hey, don't manhandle me!" He laughed and removed his hands from my shoulders guiding me to the table.

"Where's my food?" I asked Luka as he pushed past some people that just decided to stand in front of us and watch us creepily.

I swear there is something definately wrong with this school.

"Is that all you're worried about." He asked.

"Uh, Yh food is life dude." His mood changed suddenly and he scoweled looking down.

"Is something wrong?" I asked him, as we both stopped and looked at each other. His face was blank before he answered my question.

"No. Nothing's wrong." And be hurried along to the table, sitting down. I swear I heard him huff under his breath, repeating the phrase "dude" over and over again to himself, getting more annoyed by the second.

Weird?

I sat myself inbetween Lucy and Logan and they both smiled at me. Also on the table, were the twins' friends, including Silas, Tristian, Max, Ava and Adrian. Damon and Elias were also here and obviously Luka.

I said a quick hi to everyone before grabbing my food from Lucy who was keeping it safe from the boys prying hands and tucked in.

During lunch I talked to Ava and Lucy, they were actually really funny and I could now proudly call them my friends. The boys had their own conversation and I would be lying if I said my eyes didn't linger at Luka a few times.

I know bad Alexandra, but what can I say he's hot.

We finished up our food and me and the girls made our way to our last few lessons deep in conversation.

Time skip

School was finally over and I was now on my way back home. All of us were tired and couldn't wait to just sleep the night away.

That's if you don't have any nightmares.

Do you find joy in harassing me every five seconds.

Well, Yh that's the point.

Why does my own self hate me so much.

Quit complaining and get inside, your at home bitch.

I looked out the window and what do you know, we were home. I grabbed my stuff and went inside whilst the boys parked.

I honestly was not in the mood for anything so when my father stopped me to talk, I walked past him causing him to do a double take and watch me leave.

Oh shit you're in trouble now.

"Let her leave, she had a long day, she's probably tired." I turned around and my father's face softened and he nodded his head.

Oh Damon, thank you my new favourite brother.

I gave him a thankful look and he smiled at me as I ran upstairs getting dressed and collapsing onto my bed.

"REMEMBER TO COME DOWN FOR DINNER!" Screamed my father from downstairs.

"YES DAD!" I set my alarm and got some sleep.
