Adriana's POV

Training with Viktor has been hell. It didn't take too long for me to realize how much he despises me. He thinks Niko is more competent than me! That's freaking crazy! Once I avenge Vlad he'll see I'm the only true heir

"You and Niko will spare again but no Judo. An heir should be more than just a one trick pony"

I brought my fists up and got in my fighting stance. I swung first but Niko block and kicked me in the side. He followed that with two hard punch to my gut. Then he did one of the judo trips I showed him. He absolutely flattened me

"Get up" Viktor yelled at me

"It hurts"

Niko hit all of my gymnastics bruises. I have a high tolerance to pain but this was really bad

"I don't care! Get up"

Next weekend is the Mexico trip I can't be sore or have a broken rib if I wanna avenge great gramps Vlad

"Please can I have a break"

"No! I told you to get up" he yanked the back of my shirt which brought me instantly to me feet

"Shit, you're really strong"

*Smack*

"Watch your mouth! Just for that you can spend the whole night training"

"Again"

Some days he makes me train til 8 in the morning. He doesn't stay up but he checks the cameras in the morning. I got punished because I sat down for too long.

"Yes again, you'll have to get used to it"

"Please I just need a break"

"I don't care"

I got back in the fighting circle and prayed for a better outcome. Unfortunately my prayers were not heard and the match ended with me clutching my gushing nose

"Fuck, I'm so sorry AJ"

"Milo, don't apologize. If she would've kept her hands up she wouldn't be bleeding"

"I still feel bad"

"Nikolai you're dismissed"

"I can stay up with AJ" he offered

"You've done your part as second. Now she has to do hers"

"She's been doing her part. She's just tired"

"Go upstairs now"

I heard Niko sigh and then he walked away

"You're gonna stay here until you can beat Nikolai without Judo"

"Can I at least use the bathroom"

"You have 5 minutes"

"Thank you"

I bolted out of the basement. On my run I of course bumped into someone

"Ugh" I clutched my side

"What's wrong" dad asked

"Pain" I groaned out

"Let me check if anything is broken"

"No time" I waved off

"There's always time to focus on your health"

"I have to pee"

"Well then come to me after"

"Okay"

He helped me up and I ran to the bathroom. After a much needed potty break I went back to the basement
