#Chapter26
Layla’s POV
/"Try to break free/" Emma said, holding me from behind.
I did exactly what she had taught me and threw her on the ground. She fell to the ground while I bent down trying to catch my breath.
/"Good job. You're a fast learner/" she complimented me with a smirk.
We have been at this for hours. I was tired and covered in sweat. All I wanted to do was take a break, but she wasn't having any of it.
We have gone over all the basic techniques and I was sure that I was still not ready. If someone tried to attack me right now, I would have probably taken off in a sprint.
Suddenly there was a clap from behind me.
/"Not bad/" Emilio said.
He was the last person I wanted to see right now. Rolling my eyes, I just ignored his presence.
/"Why don't you try to get out Emilio's hold/" Emma suggested.
/"I'm good/" I replied quickly.
/"Are you scared?/" he teased.
