Out for Blood
The Drake Chronicles continues, with a glimpse inside the world of a vampire hunter.
Hunter Wild just wants to get through her last year at the secret Helios-Ra Academy. To do so, she’ll have to betray her grandfather, date a vampire and possibly take down the entire League – all before the end of term.
Extract:
Chapter One - Hunter
Tuesday evening
Shakespeare said, “What’s in a name?”
Well, my name’s Hunter Wild, so I say: a lot.
For instance, you can tell by my name that our family takes our status as vampire hunters very seriously. Good thing I’m an only child— if I’d had brothers or sisters, they might have been named Slayer or Killer. We’d sound like a heavy metal band.
Hard to believe, in reality, we’re one of the oldest and most esteemed families in the Helios-Ra. When you’re born into the Wild family, no one asks you what you want to be when you grow up. The answer is obvious: a vampire hunter.
Period.
No ifs, ands, or buts. No deviations of any kind.
One size fits all.
