He gently ran his hand down her back and planted a kiss on her forehead.

“Just sleep. I'm here."

The next day, Rosalynn woke up, staring blankly at the ceiling as she gradually regained her senses.

Brian wasn't by her side, but his scent still lingered on the quilt.

A smile spreading across her face, Rosalynn took a deep breath of the scent, then climbed out of bed.

The house was quiet. There was no sign of where Brian and Calvert might have gone.

Rosalynn, concerned about the man she had saved, decided to first check the room on the ground floor.

Rosalynn attentively studied the man, his chest gently rising and falling in a rhythm of deep sleep as she took his pulse.

It was steady, suggesting that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, he would wake up today.

Withdrawing her hand, Rosalynn adjusted his blanket to provide a bit more warmth.

Due to the darkness of the previous evening, Rosalynn had failed to catch a clear glimpse of the man. Covered in blood and unconscious, his appearance was a mystery.

Now, she could discern his impeccably sculpted, aristocratic features in the soft morning Light.

He was strikingly handsome, uncannily reminiscent of Brian. Both men exuded an ethereal elegance as though they had descended from celestial realms.

Their unique allure set them apart, much like mythical creatures standing head and shoulders above mere mortals.

It was an arresting sight, and losing such a charming man to an untimely demise would be a tragedy.

Arching an eyebrow in light amusement, Rosalynn whispered to his unconscious form, "Quite a looker you are. Had it not been for me, you would have met the Grim Reaper far too soon."

The sleeping man's index finger twitched almost as if stirred by her words.

Preparing to take her leave, Rosalynn rose from her seat.

But just as she was about to walk away, her hand was caught in a firm grip.

Frozen in surprise, she turned to meet the gaze of the now-awake man.

His eyes were deep and dark, like an abyss.

Intrigued, Rosalynn arched an eyebrow, asking, “Are you awake now?"
