    About this ebook

    Jake has watched a band of Hunters lay waste to the only family he has... the undead! Now he's also being hunted too, especially by The Mad Prophet. He is the last vampire left. However, in the middle of surviving the shrewdness of his big time nemesis and escaping, he discovers a secret, one owned by the hunters themselves and one only he can stop... before it spirals out of control.

      HUNTED…

      Jack grabbed the broken piece of the spear and pulled it out of his blood-caked arm. It didn’t give him the sort of pain he expected it to. It gave him very little pain, as much as a pinprick, and lasted seconds. It drew blood with torn muscles and dark-grey, decayed flesh, leaving a bleeding hole the circumference of the handle of a mop and which passed through the length of his bicep, opening at the other end. He looked at the mess of his right arm but didn’t panic. It was going to take a short time to heal and he had other problems to take care of.

      An owl hooted nearby. He saw its deep, gloomy, yellow eyes noticing him, studying him, bearing down on him. He dismissed it. It wasn’t important, barely worth worrying about. It dismissed him too and turned its attention to the forest floor. His panting slowed. He swiped at the sweat formed on his forehead and took it clean and listened. There were no noises, save the grave swish-swish issued by the night breeze on flexible tree branches and dislodged leaves.

And he understood it because it made it easy for him to find food. Food, his basic need! His survival not only depended on it, without it, and so much of it, the paled skin that held his flexible bones together would’ve fallen into dried pieces long, long ago. He’d seen one of his own die that way.

      He sat and relaxed on the branch. He gazed at the moon – full in its splendor. It glimmered through the almost starless sky, sending a dim light down the farthest end of the forest. He preferred the darkness here. It felt safer, even if momentarily. He was one with the dark. He wasn’t scared of it. His eyesight was infinitely better than the mountain cat’s. Another one in his armory of incredible abilities. He could actually see a drop of
