No matter what Sierra said, Harley was dead sure she was some kind of hidden expert living off the grid.

Harley’s eyes practically screamed, “I want to improve!” Sierra was helpless. Sierra finally said, “Our sect stays hidden from the world. No foreigner can join, and everything is up to destiny
Harley’s face fell.
She was about to say something else, but Sierra got pulled away by a call from the local cops.
As expected, Gary and Holden were both members of the Darknet Animal Hub.
The police also discovered that Gary had seven wildlife breeding farms under his name.
Outwardly, he was famous for rescuing animals, but in reality, he ran the farms while secretly offering the animals as game for rich businessmen to hunt.
The cops pressed Gary and Holden to spill who the real boss behind the Darknet Animal Hub was. The two froze, and then looked completely lost.
They both confessed, “We have no idea what the boss even looks like. He’s always the one reaching out to us. Even the breeding farms are registered under our names, but he’s the one pulling all the strings.”
The color drained from their faces as they spoke.
It dawned on them that after all this time working for the guy, they’d never actually met the boss, and didn’t even have any legit way to reach him.
The cops kept digging, but even the tech department couldn’t get inside the Darknet Animal Hub, no matter what they tried.
Sierra was already used to this kind of move. After all, she and her team had faced off against the boss behind the Darknet Animal Hub more than once.
Whenever one of his people got busted, the boss would wipe out every trace before anyone could catch on, never leaving a single clue behind.
Holden and Gary were handed over to the prosecutors by the local police, and Sierra reported everything about the Darknet Animal Hub back home.
Henry and Thomas absolutely ripped into the founder of the Darknet Animal Hub, cursing him out over and over.
One yelled, “That bastard! Not only does he hurt people, but he tortures animals, too. When the cops finally catch him, he should get the death penalty!”
The other said, “And Natalie? She looks harmless, but she’s got the heart of a beast. Just wait, I’ll make sure she pays for everything!”
The two old men kept ranting on the phone for half an hour, and Sierra just listened until she finally said a couple of words and hung up.
As Sierra stepped out of the local police station, she spotted Harley, whom she’d just parted ways with, pacing outside.
As soon as Harley saw Sierra and the others, she came running over.
“Sierra, you’re finally out!” Harley said.
Sierra asked, “Harley, what are you doing here at the police station instead of at the rescue center?”

“I came to see you,” Harley said with a long sigh. “Bessa’s awake now, and the cubs are stable. We’ve been trying to bottle-feed them, but they just won’t take the milk. So we put the cubs next to Bessa, hoping they’d nurse from her.”
“So we put the cubs next to Bessa, hoping they’d nurse from her
As Sierra listened, she couldn’t shake the feeling that there was more to it than Harley was letting on.
Sure enough, Harley continued, “But the problem is, Bessa has no idea how to nurse. No matter what we do, she just won’t get it.
“When we tried to take the cubs away to keep bottle-feeding them, Bessa totally freaked out and started baring her teeth at our staff. Now, nobody dares get close to her.”
Sierra said, “I’ll go back with you and take a look.”
When Sierra got to Bessa’s room at the rescue center, she found the cubs sprawled everywhere. As soon as Bessa saw Sierra,
eyes lit up and it let out a sharp meow.

Sierra shot Bessa a look, and then turned to Harley. “Harley, Bessa just gave birth, so it’s super on edge around people right now. Can you and the staff wait outside? I’ll try talking to it, alright?”
Harley nodded in a hurry.
“Sierra, go ahead. If things get sketchy, just get out of there,” Harley said.
Sierra nodded.
She slid open the glass door and walked into Bessa’s room.
