She was stunned to see Catherine looked like Janice afterwards she look towards Catherine's companion and her prediction was right. Catherine is with Luis, Angelo and Jack. When she walked toward them all of them were takenaback and dumbfounded. They never expect to see Alana on the famous restaurant. She looks gorgeous with her uniform and her heair was up exposing her pale face even with her birthmark, nothing can hide her beauty.

Sheri almost rolled her eyes when everyone was staring at her.

Sheri on the side just smiles at them together with Ghani.

"I am glad to hear that all of you enjoyed my cooking. These are the dessert that I made. It's pure chocolate and a hand made ice cream. It's one of our latest menus. I hope you enjoy and let me know afterward what you think." Sheri looked at Luis, Catherine, Angelo, and Jack.

Ghani also stood next toward Sheri observing all their actions.

"Ms. Catherine, sir Luis, sir Angelo, sir Jack this is our feedback notes it would be wonderful to know your thoughts about it. And also your bill has been paid by the reservation cost that we receive from you, sir. Luis. If you have anything else that you wanted. Please don't hesitate to call us." Ghani said.

Sheri and Ghani were waiting for their reply, but all of them werent able to say anything. Especially Angelo when he saw Alana. It was an indescribable emotion flowed through him. He felt he dearly wanted to hold her and passionately embrace her. A feeling he can't describe. For almost a year that he keeps his feeling under control. That's why Angelo didn't want to see her. Now the woman that causes him unrest is standing in front of him looking beautiful and confident.

When Sheri and Ghani didn't get any response from them. Both of them bid their farewell and went out of the VIP room. Three of them didn't eat anymore and went on their own leaving Jack savoring and eating his ice cream. He almost forgot the woman who causes his hand to bruise. When he saw her again a smile forms on his face. She is as beautiful as what he remembers of her.

middle Night. The restaurant was closed leaving Sheri and Ghani drinking wine while laughing on the kitchen floor.

Ghani drinks her wine and laugh. " Did you see his face? Ghani said while giggling.

"haha it's priceless," Sheri said.

But she becomes quiet when she remembers that both of the main characters in this story looked the same as the people she really didn't like.

That night Angelo wasn't able to work. He was thinking about Sheri that for some reason he felt a longing to be with her. It's almost a year that's driving him nuts.

After the incidents, Sheri never knew danger was lurking around. She let Ghani go home early and she alwyas make sure to be the one to close the restaurant. Sheri knew the hidden charachter will appear any moment. That's why she makes sure that she is only alone.

The hidden charachter wanted to retailiate to Sheri when he received the news about Catherine being harassed by Alana Lannes. He immediately orders his men to plan to kidnapped Sheri. They've been waiting for an opportunity, and this was their moment. When Sheri closed the restaurant, someone put a gun on her head. Sheri wanted to know who wants to kidnap her, so she just let them do what they wanted to do. They blindfolded her while bringing her to an abandoned house outside the city. They tied her up in the wooden chair.

When they remove her blindfold she narrowed her eyesight and saw someone is sitting on the corner surrounded by 10 men.

"Who are you? Sheri asked.

The man didn't answer instead he blew his cigar toward her.

Sheri furrowed her brows and tried to identify the man who is smoking. When a candlelight up. Sheri was dumb when she saw the man.

"Oh, great the look-alike Eric. What do you expect Sheri? Of course, the system will put you here. System, you're a a******, B****, I****, inhuman." Sheri repeatedly curse the system in her head.

After fuming in her head. Sheri pretended she didn't know him.

"Sorry sir but do I know you?" Sheri asked.

The man stood up and approaches Sheri.

"no, but I know you. You hurt my woman." Laurence said.

"Oh great another idiot." Sheri wanted to cry and protested because she felt she's in the world of idiots. Sheri regains her composure.

"There must be a mistake sir." Sheri respectfully said.

"Don't pretend you don't know her. Her name is not even worthy to be said with your mouth." he approaches her and grasps her jaw.

With an instinct, Sheri flips her chair and did a somersault breaking the chair in the head of Laurence. Laurence didn't expect that moves of hers.

When Sheri's hand was free, she attacked the 5 burly men. His men also start attacking her. But Sheri gained the upper hand. With her knowledge of combat from the previous world, 10 ordinary men are nothing for her. Especially now that's she's a vampire.

She twisted one of Laurence men's hands while kicking the other in his balls. When she's done with the two, she gives a high kick at the jaw of one of the men breaking his jaw. Some of them get a plank wanted to swing to Sheri, but Sheri dodges them and uses the rope that's hanging in her hand to twist the neck of her opponent. Sheri didn't use her vampire ability because it's not necessary.

Laurence, on the other hand, was watching what is happening. He was dumbstruck and his heart starts to beat fast when he saw how Sheri kicks and punches his men.

"I think I'm in love" muttered Laurence to himself while watching how Sheri took down some of his men.

When one of his men pulled out a gun Sheri immediately grasp it and kick his head and went straight toward Laurence. Laurence was excited looking at Sheri who is approaching him. His heart throbs very fast.

"Stop moving all of you or I'll shoot," Sheri said while pointing the gun toward Laurence.

Laurence looked at Sheri and smile. Sheri was dumbfounded when he saw his reaction. "Move." Sheri command. Laurence didn't protest and signal his men to stop whatever they are planning to do. Sheri takes the opportunity to hold his neck and point the gun in his head.

The whole time Laurence's heart continues throbbing fast he felt flushed when Sheri holds his neck. His men were so concerned about him, but they can't do anything when he signals them not to move.

Sheri went toward the door. "Keys," Sheri said to Laurence. Laurence's hands were up.

"It's in my right side pocket," Laurence said.

Sheri put her hand inside his pants pocket. Laurence was frozen when he felt her hand inside her pocket. This was the first time he got a reaction just being touched.

When she got what she wanted, she pushed him toward his men and starts to get out of the building. When She's out, she locked the door and throws the key and speeds toward her home.

Laurence was rooted on spot. His men walked beside him and asked if they will follow her. But he said no.

The images of her fighting keep on renewing in his mind. He clutches his chest and feels the throbbing of his heart.

"Is this what they called love at first sight," he amusedly said toward himself.

Indeed, he likes Catherine, but he never experiences this kind of thrill. She was way beyond enticing than Catherine. She looked weak but unknowingly when provoked she becomes a lioness.

The moment she grasps his neck, it makes him shiver in delight. One thing is on his mind is to conquer that lioness. If Sheri can read his mind she might shiver in disgust.
