Saved by My Knight in Dirty Leather Novel – Alessia’s POV “ALESSIA! WHERE IS MY BREAKFAST!” I woke up to my mom screaming. I jump up noticing it was 6 in the morning and that I slept through my alarm and that is not good. The last time I slept through my alarm I got a black eye and broken nose. I run out of my room not bothering to do anything to myself to get down there and try to explain why I didn’t make any breakfast. “I’m sorry mom I was up until 2:30 this morning studying for my final in History” I tried to explain to her. “You stupid hooker! you can’t do anything right! I don’t care if you were studying I still expect you to make me my breakfast” I felt her grab my hair then throw me to the ground. She then started to punch and kick me anywhere she could. Once she was satisfied she walked away and yelled at me to clean up the blood off the floor and to make her breakfast.
After I could gather enough strength I got up and cleaned the floor then made her an omelet with ham, cheese, and bell peppers. Let me tell you about myself. My name is Alessia Black, I am 17 years old, I have blue eyes and dark brown hair, I am 5’2, my 18th birthday is in a week, and I am an underground street fighter and go by the name Warrior. You are probably wondering why I don’t fight back. Well it’s simple, she is still my mom. I remember when we were happy before my dad died. We were a really happy family and she wasn’t always like this. So I will not hit her back. She doesn’t know that I am a fighter because I sneak out at night to go to my fights and train during school time. I graduated early and she doesn’t know so there is no way she wouldn’t believe me.
I look at the clock and realize I only have an hour to get to training so I plate her food and put it on the table with a cup of black coffee and run up to my room and put my gym clothes in my backpack and throw on black ripped skinny jeans and a sweater and run out the door not bothering to say bye because she doesn’t care. I run from my house all the way to the outskirts of town where the underground gym is. Turning the corner I bump into someone and almost fall when they catch me. I look up and I see the brightest light green eyes I have ever seen. I feel his hand trace my face while looking me over. “Are you okay?” he whispered to me. I didn’t realize I was still staring when he asked me again. “What do you mean?” I ask him because I really don’t understand what he is talking about. You have a bruise on your face? Who did this to you? Are you okay?” My eyes bug out because I didn’t know that I had any visual bruises. It must have formed after I left the house. “I need to go” I said trying to walk away not realizing that he was still holding me. “Can you let go of me please?
I really have to go, I have somewhere I have to be.” “At least tell me your name. Please.” It almost sounded like he was begging. I contemplated it for a minute and slowly pull away from him. As I was I looked up and noticed that there were not alone and there stood 2 other guys behind him both having shocked faces. “My name is Alessia” I said when I finally slipped from his grasp. I looked at him one more time before walking around him and running to the gym that was only 3 blocks away. When I got to the gym I wasn’t even sweating since I have to do extreme workouts for training. The owner of the gym and underground fighting ring, Viki Vex, is an amazing woman. Yes a female is running it. She took me under her wing when I was 12 after a really bad beating because I didn’t mop the floor.
She started by teaching me self defense in hopes that I would use it but she knows who is hitting me and why I don’t fight back. “Hey Alessia. Why do you put up with this? Why don’t you just move out or fight back?” she asks me. “You know why I don’t fight back and I am planning on moving out. I have been saving money from the past 3 years. I am just waiting until my birthday so she can’t come after me legally” I see a happy look come across her face. “That’s smart. Just please be safe until then. We have no idea what your mom can do until then.” She then left me to get going with my training and workout. Gunner’s POV After she ran away I turned around and looked at the guys and they all had shocked looks on their faces. “What is wrong with you guys? Why do you have that look on your faces?” I saw Blade shake his head “Dude, what is wrong you. You said please and you were nice. You are not nice and I have never heard you say please”.
I turn around and walk towards our bikes because even I don’t have an answer to why I acted the way I acted. After getting on our bikes we head to the clubhouse since we were out taking out the trash. After we get there I go straight to Tech’s room. He didn’t hear me enter and he was playing some video game so I decided to mess with him. “TECH! WHAT DO YOU THINK YOUR DOING?” He Jumped out of his chair falling onto the ground. He looked up at me with a look on his face was like a kid who must got caught by their mom while their hand was in the cookie jar. “Hey prez I didn’t here you come in. Can I help you with anything?” he asks me while getting up dusting off his clothes. “Yeah there are some cameras I want you to hack into from about 20 minutes ago by the tattoo shop. There was a girl there and her name is Alessia.
I want you to find her” I told him. he can find anybody so I know that he can get this done. “Yeah give me about 2 hours and I will give you her information.” He then turned around and got to work. I left his bat cave and went to my office shutting the door behind me. I can’t help but remember how she felt in my hands. Her beautiful blue eyes and how well she fit against me despite being so tiny compared to my 6’3 height. I can not wait until I can see her again. I looked at the clock and saw that it was 9 and I was tired since I didn’t get any sleep the night before so I left my office locking it behind me and went to my room to lay down. The last thought on my mind before I fell asleep was how she was bruised and I was planning on finding out who did that to my queen. … I woke up from my nap to someone banging on my door. I looked at my clock and realized in was only 12 and I was asleep for 3 hours.
I ripped the door open to yell at whoever woke me up but I saw it was Tech. I still and a scowl on my face because I still wasn’t happy about being woke up the way I was. I guess he saw the look on my face and a sheepish smile crept onto his face. He then pulled a manila envelope from behind his back. “Hey prez, I found all the information I could on that girl Alessia for you. Sorry that it took a little longer than I said it would. Her full name is Alessia Ray Black, she is 17 about to be 18, she has been to the hospital for reasons unknown since she always tells a different story but it is suspected abuse, her dad died and her 6th birthday , and she is an underground street fighter by the name of Warrior. From what I can tell she is really good. I don’t understand, if she is being abused why doesn’t she fight back since she can fight? You know?”
“I have no idea. Thanks for getting this information for me. Don’t tell anyone about this or her. Got it?” “Yes sir.” He then turned around and walked away after giving me her information. I go back into my room and lock the door behind me starting to look at the information on her. There are some pictures of when she was in the hospital and the markings she has, someone is definitely hitting her and I am going to find out. I get to the last page and it says that she has a fight tonight at a place nearby. Looks like you will be seeing me sooner than you probably thought my queen.
