As he drew closer, Jeremy noticed the bear cub’s posture was strange. Instead of taking shelter from the cold in the bushes,, it seemed to be rooted firmly on the same spot, not moving an inch. Occasionally, the bear cub would make low whimpering sounds, a sound that hinted at something other than outright hostility.
It wasn’t trying to threaten him; it was guarding something. His pulse quickened with curiosity. What could it be hiding? Jeremy took a deep breath and inched closer, speaking softly to calm the bear cub. “Easy there… I’m not here to hurt you,” he murmured, his voice gentle but firm.
