Chapter 24 - Jaclyn Eisner (1/2)
Hunter started to tell the Story of Ruby. And how the tiger becomes so arrogant. The weapons that the tiger holds are too powerful making the tiger race the fearless in the whole continent.
Sheri was listening while closing her eyes and enjoys the sun.
”Thus, in essence, you want me to help you to take down the tiger race,” Sheri asked.
Deep down she knows the hollow of the female lead is strong and can't be taken down.
”Hmm” acknowledge Hunter.
”Sorry can't do,” Sheri said honestly.
Hunter is silent.
”But I can ȧssist you to restrain them from harassing your race.” Sheri furthered said.
Hunter didn't say anything merely sat there and listened to her. While listening, her face that is covering with sunlight is so blinding. Her beauty mesmerizes him. His thinking she's suitable to be his mate. He snaps from his thought when he hears her.
”Alright deal. Today I will remain here and protect you as my promise and tomorrow we go to my race.” Hunter said.
”Hmm,” Sheri agreed.
The whole day Sheri did what she usually did. Either taking a nap, sunbathing, fishing, eating. She didn't neglect to give food to her guest. Morning came. They set off toward his race. Since Sheri was slower than Hunter. Hunter offered her to carry her to make their journey faster. Sheri didn't hesitate. She mounts Hunter's back and after half an hour they arrived in front of a village.
Everybody glanced at her, Sheri also looked at them. They went inside a room. A group of 20 grown men was there.
A fierce growl sounded. Sheri instantly grasps the loaded gun on her right side. But Hunter hiss at the man who growls.
”That thing is the one who injured me,” Klans said.
”We'll talk it later,” Hunter said.
Sheri remembers correctly that face.
”He's the one the owner of the body injured. He's bulky!” Sheri thought to her self.
At heart, Sheri heartily admired the owner's body skill. ” She's quite skillful to wound a man twice her size.” Sheri admiringly thought toward the owner's body.
Everyone in the room looked keenly at the woman next to their leader. She's wearing her soldier uniform and her smell is unique they can't pinpoint if she's a man or a woman.
Hunter sits in the middle of the table. While Sheri stands in one corner scrupulously observing those robust men chat in their own language. Hunter explained to them his grand plan. Heated arguments naturally arise. Some agreed to Hunter's plan and some are not. A powerful growl was heard when all begun arguing. Everyone was silent. He looked at Sheri who is standing in one corner and enable her to explain her plan. He, then again, is the one who translates.
”From my knowledge, you said the tiger had powerful weapons? I want to know what are those weapons,” Sheri said.
Hunter talked to his group and they mentioned about arrows that ignite fires.
”If they use an arrow that ignites fires, it's indeed bothersome. I can teach you how to generate one and also, I can enhance your skills. Sheri offered.
The female lead has an aura that can't be destroyed, but Sheri has knowledge in combat and good at planning an ambushed. She's a soldier who is one of the best.
She designed her plan before them. They were at first skeptical toward her but when they heard her they were silent. She also offers them a strategy on how to injure their opponents. Tigers were indeed fierce, but the leopards have skills that Sheri can enhance. She recollects how the owners of the body and Klans fight. From there she formulated what was their weak points that still can be upgraded.
Hunter explained to them everything and they all agree afterward. When the meeting concluded a man with a red/orange ear walked toward her.
