She bounces on her toes before coming at me again. This time she goes for a jab before spinning trying to get her elbow into my stomach. | block the first one, having to move to block the second before she actually hits me.
When she dances back this time, | can see her excitement at the challenge, and | know we’re about to get started.
I’m amazed by her skill. I’ve been training her for years. How have | missed that she’s this good? She’s either been holding out or she’s been practicing a lot of extra hours on her own. Or possibly both.
She’s fast, but not as fast as | am. It’s her agility which is better than mine that equals our abilities out. She and | begin a dance of sparring. While | don’t want to take her out, | want her to know when she’s left herself open. So, | give her more gentle punches than | normally would. | could have taken her down, but | really am enjoying the back and forth. She’s got a very different style than Anders, Patrick and Calvin, relying on her agility and intelligence rather than her speed and strength. She’s a fast learner too. Each time | tag her, and | go for the same move again, she blocks me.
| haven’t been paying attention, enjoying the battle back and forth, so I’m a little surprised to see the warriors begin to circle us, clapping and hollering. | can see that Lily really wants to beat me. We both have sweat pouring down our bodies. We’ve been sparring non-stop for nearly two hours. Time to end this for today. | still want to give Andra time to work out with Donovan.

She’s back up already as well. | begin using more strength trying to get the upper hand and pin her. | can’t believe how fast she is. The more she dodges me, the more the group is cheering for her.
| finally get an in and | grab her leg. She tries to pull away, and when that doesn’t work, she jumps up, attempting to kick me in the head with her free leg, or possibly wrap her leg around my neck to swing me to the ground. Either way, | see it coming and | grab her second leg and send us both to the ground, covering her body with mine, pinning her arms above her head.
“Gotcha.” | say so only she can hear me. We are both panting and we’re so close that | can feel her body’s warmth and her breath on my face. | look into her blue
eyes, smelling her sweet scent of orange and ginger. I’m totally distracted and without realizing it, I’m leaning in to kiss her and that’s when she gets me. Her knee connects with my balls and my trance is replaced with pain as it feels like she shoved my balls up into my throat. | can hear every guy on the field gasp or groan in solidarity of my pain. Lily, however, hops right up.
“Thanks for the sparring match, Clint. But don’t think for a second that means you can kiss me.” She says turning and walking away, leaving me rolling around on the ground, holding my balls.
