Blake tossed his mop of sweaty hair out of his face and turned around just as the sturdy bar of a folded steel chair smashed between his eyes. He reeled backward and flipped over a rope to the ring's apron and then to the floor a few feet below.
He could hear what sounded like the small crowd’s cheers echoing around him before a loud ringing filled his head and the bright lights above swarmed his blurred vision.
“It's over for now.” He could hear Simon’s voice cut through the noise as if he was underwater.
Blake rolled over as a rush of blood from his broken nose ran down his lips. He rose to his knees just as a plastic cup of warm beer hit him in the chest and splashed into his face. He threw his head back as if he had just taken another hard shot from his opponent.
The crowd sounds of whistles and cheers came back to him. He blinked hard several times to squeeze the salt and sweat out of his eyes.
The Sequel to Brian Potter's debut novel "Bought with Blood" brings the gang back into the spotlight.
