“Teach him the ropes, Mullvain,” my uncle ordered, heading out as the
mountain of an intimidating man finished tightening the glove around my
wrist.

“Aye, sir,” Mullvain replied, his voice a gravelly rumble. Then, he
slipped on his own gloves, eyes locking onto mine.
The first blow landed on my cheek with a crack, pain radiating but not
overwhelming. It should have been blinding, considering it came from a
three-hundred-pound giant. But here I stood, a scrawny fifteen-year-old
punk, defiant. I shook it off.

“Hit me back, lad,” he taunted, his Scottish brogue both endearing and
infuriatingly incomprehensible.
Italian was where I felt at home—the fluid, rapid-fire pace of it, the
expressive arm gestures, the unapologetic volume. English felt foreign on
my tongue, a clumsy substitute, though I was adapting.

His words were calming enough, but the amusement in his eyes set my
blood boiling. I wanted to hit him. Wipe that smug grin off his face so hard,
he’d see stars. But every instinct screamed that it was a trap.

“C’mon, boy. Yer uncle says you need training if you’re going out on
your own.” Smack. This time, my left cheek was on fire. “Running away?
What’s the matter? Not enough maids to wipe yer ass?”

I swung twice at his head and missed. “I’m not running away,” I huffed,
struggling with the weight of the red boxing gloves. Bastards were heavier
than they looked. “One day, I’ll be the King of Chicago. My father thinks I
need to learn the business. I need to learn to fight.”
“King of Chicago, eh? Wi’ the way ye hit, ye look mair like king o’ the
pussies.”

That did it. This time, when I swung again, my fist connected with a
satisfying thud. Direct hit. The giant doubled over, and for a moment, fear
seized me—had I actually hurt him? But then, his booming belly laugh
echoed through the room, shattering my concerns.

“I guess when you’re a wee guy, the best ye can do is hit ma gut.”
For that, I hit him again. An uppercut that stopped his laughter cold.
Easy to do when he’s bent over. His smile vanished as he cradled his cheek.
“Look at that. Not even sixteen, and I’ll be kicking your ass in no time.”

The amusement in his eyes darkened. “Fifteen years old.” His gaze
traveled over my face, the same way my father’s had done countless times.
“And already too big for yer britches.” His arm shot out, tapping my belly
with so much speed and force, the pain didn’t actually register until my ass
was on the floor.

I struggled to breathe as his laughter grew, my embarrassment and
annoyance blurring until I found myself laughing too. His left-handed glove
ruffled my hair. “Well, if I didn’t owe your uncle a mountain of debt, I
wouldn’t do it. You’re too young to be fighting your way to the top.”
With that, I jumped to my feet, chest puffed out. “I’m ready.”
