There was blood on the ground, and the air was eerily quiet.

Rosalie stumbled upon the pool of blood, and collapsed on the ground. "Where is he? Where is he?"

Sebastian saw the blood on the ground, and his brows furrowed.

He had seen with his own eyes how Theodore was pierced through the chest with an arrow. He wasn't able to call for help in time, either. Where could Theodore be?

Under such circumstances, Theodore couldn't have left by himself. Did someone come to rescue him?

Sebastian's heart leaped. "Rose, are you blaming me? I had to save you! I didn't have the capacity to care for Theodore!"
