An
extensive week of surveillance has given the Hunters information on the
best path to take into the troubled town. In this time, Estella and Wolfe have
begun to know each other better. He’s started to bounce back, though the same
cannot be said of our other characters. Still plagued by the inner revolts of
his people, Cameron finds his relationship with Camille to be taking another
rocky turn. Still, they’re loyal to one another. What else can they do when
everything and everyone around them is against them?
Meanwhile,
the disappearances of children have spread to other towns surrounding Jamestown
and Everstone. A great number of allies to Cameron’s Clan have reached out for
protection and help because of kidnappings/murders of their members that have
taken place. Neither humans nor vampires are safe, and distrust hangs in the
air.

dampened earth. There’d been at least one vampire watching every main road. It

they have a private party; Invites only,” he reported to the red head that’d
been keeping watch below. “We’ll have to take one of the back roads or just cut
through the forest, though I don’t like the idea much.” That was the hunting
grounds of the Clan, and he didn’t want any run-ins with his past.
“I
vote back roads; less easy to get ambushed,” she explained, hands resting at
her side, though he’d learned that in less time than it took you to blink she could draw a blade and have it at your
neck. “Guess we should head back and report to HQ before we head out,” she took
a few steps away before noticing that he’d grown very still.
