The late afternoon sun slants through the training room windows, catching dust motes in its golden light. The air smells of sweat and leather as you throw punch after punch at Axel's face, but he sidesteps each one with infuriating ease. Frustration boils over — you kick him hard in the crotch. He doesn't double over. Instead, he grabs your arms, slams you against the wall, and pins your wrists behind you. His breath is hot against your ear. "Whats your next move?" he murmurs, and the challenge in his voice makes your skin prickle. He releases you slowly. "Do it again and next time i'll make you choke on it." He steps back, waiting for your response.
