EAGLES, Judge.

Defendant argues that the Double Jeopardy Clause of the Fifth Amendment of the United States Constitution prohibits him from receiving two consecutive sentences for one act which violates both G.S. 14-31 (malicious assault and battery in a secret manner with intent to kill) and G.S. 14-32(a) (assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill inflicting serious injury). We disagree.
