Maximus seized the opportunity, pointing the tip of his sword at her throat.
Stephanie felt a pang of disappointment. How could she lose this fight? With her sword gone, she had no chance against him. All she could do was grit her teeth and stay in the role. The murderous look in her eyes vanished in an instant.
