Chapter 5 Finish him

Chapter 4

Layla's pov

I hated to watch my brother's fights. He was fighting in an underground club tonight trying to get noticed by people that can skyrocket his fighting career. I went to support him, but I was always scared he would get hurt. I mean some of the guys compared to him were huge. I sat in the front row with my brother's girlfriend waiting for him to come out.

What I wasn't expecting was the sexy guy Derek from the club to be the guy brother was fighting. Now not only was I worried about my brother, but the sexy guy that has yet to call me as well. Derek seemed like a good man so this should be a fair fight.

I let out the breath I was holding knowing that my brother's opponent wasn't some dirty fighter. I couldn't help but look at Derek's abs. This man was truly a work of art.

I kept saying I wanted to stay single. That I was fine on my own, but one look at this man and I knew I had to have him. I wondered why he never called. I mean it took every ounce of courage I had to even give him my number. Maybe I just wasn't his type. Yet he seemed into me when we were dancing.

I heard my brother's music, so I stood up to cheer. I looked up and saw something in Derek's eyes. He looked angry. Why would he be mad that I was cheering for my brother? Unless he didn't know he was my brother. Oh, this can't be good.

If he thought my brother was a guy, I was dating he might get the wrong idea then my brother could be in some serious trouble. I needed to do something and fast. I couldn't watch the guy I crave harm my brother.

The fight got underway, and Derek looked at me and smirked as he hit my brother. Why was he being such a dick? So, what if I was dating someone. He never called me so what is it to him?

If he hurts my brother, I will never forgive him. My brother was putting up a good fight. He was getting in some good punches, but he was being cocky. That was going to get him hurt.

Derek was playing with him. It was as if he was setting him up. I watched as Derek landed a punch that made the whole building echo. Time stood frozen as my brother went down. I knew the moment I saw my brother's eyes something was wrong. The way his head hit the floor with a sick thud had me cringing. It all happened so fast.

My brother was not moving when the raised Derek's hand in victory. I tried to get to my brother, but I couldn't. Why couldn't they see something was wrong? They needed to help him.

Derek looked at me and could see something was wrong. He ran over to my brother, and then yelled for help. He looked at me in shame. This was not supposed to happen.

My brother was not supposed to get hurt. Everything better be okay or else Derek will pay. No one messes with my family and gets away with it. How could he do this? This was not the kind of person I could ever be with. He was a monster, and he was going to pay for what he has done.
