Chapter 1. The Perfect Hunt

I waited as the rain made the rooftops shine like broken neon lights.I crouched low, my legs bent and my fingers pressed into the brick and mortar, I listened to the city, and viewed the lights also, I could hear the distant hum of traffic. I had been there for hours, I was watching and I was waiting. And from my watch, nothing moved without a reason.And my heart was calm, too calm that some might say it was not natural but to me this was a ritual, hunting wasn't about excitement, It was about discipline and It was about devotion.Through the channel in my camouflage, I watched him leave the bar from my hiding spot. He looked so ordinary, and that was the lie he wore like a coat, but small signs always gave them away. He moved quietly as the crowd moved away from him without realizing why, the reflection he was avoiding in the glass wasn't an accident, it was impossible, and there, under his casual walk was the stillness of something not entirely human.There was something off abou

Chapter 2. Whispers That Don’t Bleed Correctly

SeleneThe room got quiet before I walked in, not the usual quiet, nor the kind that happens when a top hunter walks in. This was sudden, like someone cut off the conversation mid-sentence.People dragged the boots on the floor, some people cleared their throat late, metal stopped clinking, yet I didn’t slow down.I allowed the door to close softly behind me and I walked into the center of the room, into the space they’d left. As I walked, my eyes moved, not fast, not searching, just taking it all in.Three people were at the weapons table, one was near the wall checking a map that hadn’t changed in weeks, two more were by the infirmary entrance. The one who was talking wouldn’t look at me.“Keep going " I said to myself My voice wasn’t loud, It just filled the inward silence.Then, the young hunter swallowed. I watched as his throat moved and his fingers clenched on the datapad.“It’s a report from Sector Twelve " he said. "There is a possible vampire sighting.”“Possible?" I steppe

Chapter 3. The Hunt's Initial Mistake

SeleneI didn't go back to my quarters, I had nothing that I needed, because when the orders came in I moved straightway. By the time the noise at the safehouse died down I was already getting ready, strapping on my weapons and planning my route, the file was burning a hole in my mind not with questions but with coordinates.Order From: Sector Twelve. Event Location: Abandoned townhouse. Comment: No confirmed kill. That last part didn't sit well with me. It didn't belong in a report like this, it didn't belong in my world.I rode through the city fast keeping my engine low and my headlights off when I didn't need them. The night was thick and watchful, the kind of quiet that usually meant something bad was about to happen and I liked it that way.When I got to the location the street was empty. There's no people, no dogs. Even the stray dogs that usually hung out in alleys like this were gone, I kicked the engine, I got off my bike in one smooth motion already scanning the area.Th

Chapter 4. The Predator Who Observes First

Chapter 4. The Predator Who Observes FirstSeleneI did not go back to sector twelve.The townhouse still had a hold on me. It was not because of the blood or the bodies, it was the mark that was carved into it.The mark was carved cleanly and too deliberately. This was not something that was done out of hunger or chaos. This was a message.I told myself that I was just retracing my steps and verifying the perimeter that I was doing a sweep before I made my report.This was a lie and it did not take me long to realize that.I was not done yet so I stayed in the district.As the night got darker the streetlights made shadows on the pavement.The pavement was empty, it seemed like it had already forgotten the people who were walking on it just hours before.I climbed up to the rooftop without thinking about it, my boots finding the rusted fire escape rungs and my hands pulling me up.From the rooftop I had a view of the street below.I had the ground, a wide angle and multiple exits.I

Chapter 5: The Unseen Eye Shape

I did not go back to base.The routine was like a leash that I had worn before, so I knew how it felt to be on one.I decided to circle the district where I had felt him before, I did not take a path or go back the way I came.I moved in a circle cutting across streets and slipping between buildings changing direction a lot like I did not care where I ended up.But I did care.Every step I took was precise, every time I stopped I checked my surroundings.I let my shoulders relax, my hands hung loose at my sides and I walked at a slow pace.To anyone watching me, I was another person walking around at night, but inside I was very alert.I already knew that I was being watched before now, but I wanted to know if someone was still watching me.It turned out that they were.I felt it like you feel the air change before a storm comes, it was not loud or obvious, it just felt wrong.I walked into an area of the street, the lighting was bad and there were a lot of shadows because the lamps w

Chapter 6. First Clash

I knew something was off the moment the night became quiet, not completely silent, quiet in a way that felt like someone had planned it. I walked through the alley, my boots barely making any sound on the broken concrete, I was at alert trying to pick up on any signs of vampire presence. It should have been there according to the information I had, but something did not feel right. There were no people, no signs of life, not even any heat signatures, the air felt clean like the city had taken a breath and forgotten about this place.I realized this was a setup, I tightened my grip on the blade at my side. "Too easy " I said to myself trying to calm my nerves. The mistake was not walking into the trap, it was realizing late that I was the one being hunted."Selene." My name did not echo off the walls, it just landed and I turned around. Cassian Vale stood at the end of the alley like he was a part of the shadows, he did not seem to be in a hurry, his face did not show any signs of hung

Chapter 7: Mercy Is a Wound That Bleeds Both Ways

SeleneI just kept walking because if I stopped I would have to think about what happened. I walked through the city, my boots making noise on the streets. The city was laid out in front of me like a map, with lines and familiar paths. My steps felt off, it was like I was copying someone's movements, not doing what came naturally to me.I should have stopped thinking about the fight by now but I couldn't, I kept thinking about the moment when Cassian Vale had me right where he wanted me. I remembered the feeling of my neck being exposed, the way I was standing with my weight shifted to one side. I had given him the chance to attack but he didn't take it.I jumped over an alley landing softly on the balls of my feet. My breathing was steady, my heart beating at a pace but my mind was racing. I couldn't stop thinking about why Cassian Vale hadn't killed me.I walked through the city trying to distract myself, my mind kept coming back to the question, “Why didn't Cassian Vale take the ch

Chapter 8. Selene's Obsession

SeleneI did not sleep.I lay on my back with my eyes open watching the ceiling. I thought it might give me an answer if I stared enough but it did not, the darkness was still prominent and silence remained heavy.The question did not go away. “Why would a predator choose to hold back?”It kept coming to me, again and again.It was not loud or frantic, it was precise and controlled like the way I used to think and the way I should still be thinking.It did not get any less sharp, it sharpened more and every time I thought about it the question cut deeper. I remembered his hand, how it steadied the human instead of abandoning them, I remembered his voice in the alley, quiet and certain.“You are not ready yet”. My jaw got tight. "For what?" I whispered into the dark but there was no answer and just the question pressed harder.Morning drills felt wrong from the moment I stepped on the floor.My body moved, like it always does. I have done these drills many times that my muscles rememb

Chapter 9: Pursuit's View

SeleneBefore sunset I turned my quarters into a crime scene, and it was all for one man.Maps covered the table and more maps littered the floor. I had alley sketches pinned to the wall with iron tacks. Timelines were written in ink on parchment in neat lines. They collided with circles, arrows and corrections. Witness statements were in piles and they were ranked by usefulness and stupidity.Most people get poetic when they're scared.He vanished into the air, His eyes were icy cold, He moved fast, It wasn't natural.I didn't really find it useful, I preferred details.I looked at the boot prints, I checked the direction of blood spray, I noted which hand opened a door, I counted the seconds between screams. I sharpened a knife on a stone, I listened to the hiss of metal. I did it again and again.The blade caught the candlelight.My hand moved fast when I wrote his name.Cassian Vale.I stared at the ink. I was annoyed by the pulse in my throat.I now know his habits. I know them b

Chapter 10: Where Hunters Bleed

SeleneI attacked without a second thought. It just happened.The silver blade came out of my sleeve and into my hand then drove in one smooth move. Years of practice had become a habit. I aimed for his heart at the left side. I moved a tiny step inside his guard. I target a distance to kill.Cassian stood in the middle of the chapel like he was part of it.I thought he'd be fast. I thought he'd be violent.I thought he'd disappear.He just turned a little.My blade went into his side, near his ribs.Not deep enough.Not enough to kill.He'd moved enough to save the important stuff.I felt heat on my knuckles, and lo, was his blood.Too easy.I pulled the blade out and stepped back."You're slower than I thought " I said, breathing hard.He looked at his wound, then at me and said “You're right on time."The chapel responded.Iron fell on the doors making the old place shake. Metal covers closed over windows. The sound of metal scraping against metal filled the air. Lights on the pill
