Immortal Hope (44 page)

Lifting her shoulders in determination, Sophie set her feet apart the way Gabe had shown her and tested the broadsword by gently guiding it across her body. Somehow, someway, she’d master the art. If she didn’t, she’d lose her life.

And damn it, she just wasn’t in the mood to die.

This is a work of fiction. All of the characters, organizations, and events portrayed in this novel are either products of the author’s imagination or are used fictitiously.
