Chapter 8: A Desperate AttemptJona and Raj's romantic evening was cut short as they decided to head back to her cottage, nestled in a quiet corner of Agra. As they walked hand in hand, the darkness seemed to close in around them, and Jona couldn't shake off the feeling that they were being watched.As they approached the cottage, Raj noticed that the front door was slightly ajar. He exchanged a wary glance with Jona, and together they pushed open the door, calling out into the darkness.The only response was the creaking of the old wooden floorboards beneath their feet. Suddenly, a figure emerged from the shadows, his eyes blazing with a malevolent intensity.Rock.Jona's eyes widened in terror as Rock lunged at her, his massive fists swinging. But Raj was quick to react, inserting himself between Rock and Jona.With a fierce determination, Raj grabbed Rock's wrists, holding him back. The two men clashed, their bodies straining against each other.For a moment, it seemed like Rock's brute strength would overpower Raj. But Raj refused to give up, fueled by his love for Jona and his determination to protect her.With a surge of adrenaline, Raj managed to push Rock back, sending him stumbling across the room. Rock's eyes flashed with anger, but he knew he was outmatched.With a snarl, Rock turned and fled into the night, leaving Raj and Jona shaken but unharmed.As they caught their breath, Jona turned to Raj, her eyes shining with gratitude."Thank you," she whispered, her voice trembling. "I owe you my life."Raj smiled, his heart swelling with love and pride."You don't owe me anything, Jona," he said, pulling her close. "I'll always be here to protect you."
