Fangs Of Desire |B.E

The Bloodbound Hunters

Billie's Pov:

Luckily, the buzzing didn't wake Rachel. I grabbed my phone and glanced at the screen, again it was Finneas.

Carefully slipping out of Rachel's embrace, I watched as she stirred slightly but didn't wake, her breathing remaining deep and even. I took a few steps away from the bed and leaned against the dresser.

The light from my screen could wake her, and I wasn't ready to explain what was going on. I knew I'd have to tell her sooner or later, but now wasn't the right time for that. I wanted to keep her away from our problems for as long as possible.

I opened my previous conversation with him and read through the messages once more, my mind racing. Then I scrolled to the bottom and opened the keyboard.

Hey Bil i got more info
about them.

Jesus pls go on

So it's a group of
brutal bastards.
People call them a 'cult'
But they hunt all
creatures that are not
humans - like us, and they
are super religious.
Fanatics I'd say

Funny how by doing all
this they break the basic commandments

Pure irony isn't it?
Well, but they also think
that we are what they call
us - children of satan.
They assume that they are
doing god's work by
eliminating dhampirs and
others.

So it's not a sin when
you torture and kill
'children of satan' huh?

Exactly

Amazing
They're called something?

I guess The Bloodbound
Hunters
More like sick fuckers who
killed our parents.

What about their weapon?

I think, some usual
stuff... of course most of
it doesn't work on us but
it's just a dumb stereotype.
You know.. holy water, crucifixes, but also
silver bullets, so it's
gonna be tough.

Great, now we're dealing
with medieval freaks.
Anything else?

Nope, that's all for now.
How are you holding up?

*I looked back at Rachel, a faint smile appeared on my face at the sight of her peaceful slumber. Seeing her so relaxed calmed my nerves a bit. Taking a deep breath, I started typing.*

Pretty good, I guess.
You know I wanna tell you
something...

What is it?

Few days ago I met
someone in the woods.
Her name is Rachel, and
she's a human.

A human? Does she know
about... who you are?
