Chapter 209

The motorcycle sputtered to a stop near South Flora Storage.

With a flick of her wrist, Noella tossed the keys to Alioth and strode purposefully through the reeds toward the old air–raid shelter now serving as their hideout.

“Boss, there’s still a bunch of those Shadow Dragon Soolety goons left, but they’re giving Ms. Gruber the cold shoulder. They say she’s gotta win a boxing match before they’ll take orders from her. Isn’t that nuts? I checked the lineup at our fight club there are several champs scheduled to fight. It’s no place for someone like Ms. Grubert”

Malvina, with her skinny arms and legs she was clearly not cut out for the ring. Alloth figured if she stepped into that ring, the Gruber family might as well fly the white flag.

But the underworld has its own logic when it comes to loyalty and leadership.

Noella’s steps were firm in the boots Sienna had bought her.

“If the Shadow Dragon Society has rigged the fights with their own people, Ms. Gruber doesn’t stand a chance!”

“Why not just let her fight me?”

Alioth’s brain momentarily short–circuited. “What?”

Noella turned, giving him a quizzical look with an arched eyebrow. “Any problem?”

No problem at all.

Their boss was a legend in the fighting circuit, a champion who had held her own for years. If she decided to step into the ring, whatever setup the Shadow Dragon Society had in mind wouldn’t stand a chance!

Alioth hustled to keep up with Noella, taking his place beside Malvína.

“Malvina, come on, I’ll show you.”

“To the fight club?”

“Yeah.”

Malvina’s eyes sparkled with a mix of anticipation and fear – she had never been to an underground fight

club before!

Alioth drove in the direction of the fight club with Noella and Malvina. Hidden within a vast expanse of reeds towering taller than a person, lay the underground fight club, concealed from daylight

Noella glanced at Malvina, whose excitement was tinged with nervousness, and spoke with a cool detachment. “I forgot to tell you, we couldn’t save Yates. Walden and Arthur are hanging by a thread, and even if they recover, they’ll face a firing squad. The fire has been ruled an accident, so you won’t be troubled any further. You did well, but don’t risk yourself for people who aren’t worth it again.”

Malvina blinked back tears, vowing to herself to overcome her tearful tendencies. “Got it!”

Noella handed Malvina a mask. “Wear this. Don’t let
