After I Amazed the World the Cold Alpha Regretted

Blood started to ooze from the wound, dripping onto the polished wood of the piano. The man's laughter was chilling, echoing through the room.

I was in shock, my mind struggling to process what was happening.

Before I could react further, Rolin burst into the room, his face a mask of worry and fury.

He took in the scene in an instant, his eyes blazing as he saw the man's menacing stance.

"Get away from her!" Rolin shouted, his voice filled with a protective rage.

The attacker, realizing he was cornered, made a desperate leap for the window.

He crashed through the glass and vanished into the night, leaving a trail of shattered glass and blood in his wake.

Rolin rushed to my side, his expression softening as he took in my injured hand.

"Elizabeth, are you alright?" he asked urgently, his voice tight with concern.

I could barely speak through the pain.

"I'll be okay," I managed to say, my voice trembling. "But who was that man? Why would he do this?"

Rolin's face hardened, his eyes filled with a grim determination.
