She spun to her left landing a sharp back fist to the chest of her opponent earning her a grunt.
Her victory won her a punch to the kidney that stole her breath before she could dance out of his way.
Ehlena knew IAm was pulling his punches and she was very grateful that he was sparring with her at all. He had winced and prevaricated and dodged and all but denied her for weeks. She finally had talked him into it on the understanding that if she got bruised it was on her head to explain it to Rehvenge and that he had tried to tell her no.
She had laughed and agreed.
Bruised.. sore.. more than just a bit sweaty and grinning like a crazy person she ducked under his swing and met his knee in her solar plexus emptying her lungs of air and sending her to her ass on the mat with a resounding whomp.

The shadow froze. "My lady.." he said leaning down to help her to stand.
She took his hand and with a little trick Xhex had taught her, the much larger male ended up on the floor at her side as she flipped to her feet with a sneaky laugh.
"Thank you for your consideration IAm but right now, I'm not a lady."
The male rolled to his feet, a smile peeling his lips away from his fangs. "I see," he said and lunged for her.
"Holy shiza!" she squeaked and dodged quickly but not quickly enough to keep him from landing an open handed strike to her belly and a hip check that took her to the floor again. She rolled away from his boots gaining her knees. Wrapping her hands around one ankle she yanked his foot just enough out of balance that the Shadow stumbled. She thought about taking the shot that presented itself.. fist to the "family jewels" but she didn't and let his ankle go and rolled to her feet. His eyes followed her as she got to her feet.
"You had an open shot," he growled. "You did not take it."
Ehlena nodded. "At the angle I was, if I would have delivered that shot, I could have seriously injured you. I like you too well to have to do testicular retrieval surgery on you or fight to keep you alive when I ruptured the vein that gives you an erection or crushed a testicle."
His eyes widened at her frank answer.
She arched a brow as he swallowed convulsively then chuckled.

The Shadow bowed with his hand over his heart. "My thanks then. Should this have been a life or death situation, you should have taken that shot. You cannot hesitate to use any opportunity to gain your freedom when it it presented to you. An opponent bent on harming you will not be so kind or honorable."
Ehlena picked up a bottle of water and took a long drink, her mind going back to her capture. "I know that and had it been I would have taken the shot. Thank you for doing this with me IAm. I know it bothered you to no end. I am sure that Rehvenge will appreciate the spirit of what you were doing to keep me safe. The brothers are often so busy and so is Xhex that finding a partner to spar with is next to impossible. So," she placed her hand over her heart and bowed back to the Shadow," I thank thee for thine abilities and thine wisdom," she said in Old Language.
The big male smiled a genuine smile. "It was a pleasure to assist a female of worth and the Revered Queen of mine King," he said with another bow as he dematted out of the TC leaving her alone.
Picking up her bag she wiped her face on her sleeve and chuckled as she headed up to the room she shared with her hellren for a hot shower and some food. She hoped Fritz had made his famous crepes florentine..
