I am a Second Female Lead novel Chapter 24

She starts roasting the meat. When the meat is prepared. She begins eating like there is no one beside her.

While eating, she, glance at him, and she saw he is looking at her with his folded arms sitting like a king. Sheri felt uncomfortable just looking at him.

Sheri twitches her corner of her mouth. She's a little irritated due to his looking straight at her. Making her not to eat comfortably. After a few minutes she put her plate down and stand up.

"Ahh for heaven's sake," Sheri said went inside her side of her tent where she put her foods. She grabbed a slice of big meat and start grilling. That meat was supposed to be eaten for half a month, but she can't stand that someone is looking at her while eating.

After she roasted the meat. She went and handed to him with a plate.

"Here, eat," Sheri said. When he didn't reply Sheri rolled her eyes. She made a signal to put it on his mouth.

Hunter raised his brow, He didn't receive it, so Sheri just put in front of him on the ground. When she's done eating, she went to her usual spot and grabs her mug of hot tea and slowly drink it. After an hour she's sleepy, so she went inside her tent. Hunter on the other side followed her.

She went to her bed and wraps her self with blankets and fall asleep not caring anymore what will happen toward her. If this mission is unsuccessful, she will still be able to go back to her own world, she will just deal with the consequence later on. It doesn't matter she will make sure in those months she will double her work and face whatever she has to face. For Sheri what is the use of being afraid? One way or another she can go back to her world.

When Sheri went to sleep Hunter observed her. He was checking out her place. Everything was foreign and unfamiliar to him. He quietly touched everything that she has. The tent, her clothes that are hanging, her shoes, the knife she has, even her underwear. After adequately fulfilling his mild curiosity, He stealthily approached the sleeping area of Sheri and sits down next to her watching the way she breathes evenly. Sheri tried her best to ignore his movement and ignore that he is sitting next to her. Her body is very sensitive when it comes to movement and noises At that time she really doesn't care. She tried her best to sleep and ignore everything.

Morning came, Sheri opened her eyes carefully. She instantly remembers the leopard man. She slowly goes outside peeking and checks if he's nonetheless there. She was ecstatic to see no one outside her tent and was cheerful, thinking to move out of that place and look for another cave, but She stops from her thought and remembers her second mission.

That is to locate where the pendant is.

She has to first talk to that man and asked if they saw a pendant and made a plan on how to befriend that poker face leopard man.

She was supposed to return to her tent when on her right side of her eye. She saw the plate she used to put the big lump of meat for him to eat empty. She smugly takes the plate and went inside and starts preparing her breakfast thinking that the leopard left for good. Its a good morning for her.

After a few minutes of preparing her morning breakfast, she starts eating. While eating, she perceived a movement on her back she looked back and was frozen. Her spoon stuck in her mouth. She saw Hunter carrying a big deer in his back and laid the deer in front of her. She looked at the deer and looked at Hunter with a perplexed looked.

"Exchange for the meat yesterday," explained Hunter. Sheri was shocked when he speaks her own language. He speaks eloquently fluent English.

"You, You understand me?" shockingly she asked suspiciously.

"Yes." Hunter proudly said.

Sheri merely dropped her spoon. This was not in this pathetic story. How was it possible? " System hello can I ask something?" Sheri speaks in her concerned mind but after a few minutes, no one answers her.

She sighs hopelessly.

"So all those odd times you understand me?" she asked again.

"hmm" acknowledge Hunter.

She stood up from her seat and faces him while folding her arms. She tilts her head toward him. He was still taller than her. "So tell me, who are you? And what do you want from me?" Sheri asked.

Hunter was not intimidated. "My name is Hunter. I am the leader of the Leopard race that you called. The woman you saved last time was my sister. I want to thank you." Hunter mildly said.
