Chapter One
Shen swung his sword, blocking Lara’s blade before it could come close. He pressed forward, swaying slightly as the ship hit a swell. Lara held her ground, refusing to let Shen force her backwards.

He sheathed his sword, holding out his hand.
Lara sheathed her own sword and stretched out her hand to shake his. No arguing that you’ve been waiting most of your life to meet your parents and you couldn’t possibly concentrate when your land has been sighted?
