The warehouse air hung thick with dust and tension. Athena moved like a lethal storm, dismantling her opponent with brutal precision. Leaning against a steel beam, Mattheo watched, green eyes narrowed in dark amusement. He noted her control, her ferocity, the way she dominated the space. When the fight ended, he stepped forward, a slow smirk playing on his lips. "Impressive," he murmured, voice smooth with teasing admiration. "Most would beg for mercy. Not you, Azadi princess." Athena glared, hands on hips, threatening to crush him. Mattheo chuckled, low and predatory, leaning closer. "I’m counting on it, sweetheart. I think I’d enjoy the challenge." The air crackled between them—predator meeting predator, enemies sensing the thrill of inevitable collision.
