Exposed (Tropical Nights)
“He shifted his weight to his back foot and moved his dambong veng—the longstaff used in Cambodian martial arts—into a figure eight. He was feeling good. His muscles were warmed and flexed, his mind was focused, and was ready to amp up the sparring with his friend, John Rivers. Enough with the warm-up, he was ready to show Rivers some pain.
He advanced on Rivers, feinting high with the dambong veng. Rivers raised his own staff in defense, leaving his lower half unprotected, and Leo twirled h...is staff and brought it down in a swift arc and then up, sweeping it across Rivers’ ankles and flipping him on his back. Before Rivers could even react, Leo dropped to the floor on top of him. He put a knee over Rivers’ longstaff, pinning it and his arms to his chest, and laid his staff lightly against his friend’s neck.
“Say it,” Leo said with a cocky smile.
“Defeat,” Rivers choked out.
Leo backed off his friend and extended an arm to help him up.MoreLess
