Dear Bob,

I wonder if this will be the last time I write in you.

I know i"ve been dramatic in the past and have said a couple of goodbyes, but this time I'm not playing it up. Tomorrow is the night of the blood moon. We're sitting around in another underground (because going under seems to work out so well every time they do it) hiding. Apprently you know when you're going to die and I can't shake this feeling. Good thing I don't like doing what others have planned for me. I am a warrior. I am a fighter. I am a Bunting. Future readers may still know me as the Hunter that can't - that wouldn't and I am going to make sure I end up proving them all wrong. 

Being down here is kinda good though - I guess. Mum, Dad and Jordan are here. Ailin has been training with me, she didn't go easy on me last night either. This morning was better. They are going to bring Alfie here tonight too which has Jordan freaking out.

I can't wait to tease him with Alfie, it's going to be hilarious.

Reece is with us too. It's so messed up Bob. This whole time he has been fighting the change of becoming a vampire. I'm actually glad he's here. I've gone from being scared of him to feel safest when he is around. We've always had a connection, but this is different. My blood is now running within his veins and it's almost like I can feel it. I can't describe it, but it's more than knowing he is about to walk in the room or knowing what he is thinking without even looking at him. It's well yeah. I dunno. It's scary but exciting and I dont understand it. Neither does he.

We talked last night after he rescued me from AIlin's beating. I think she went hard as punishment for escaping in Paris. Either way when Reece came in, she left. I feel so bad, this whole time he has been trying to talk himself into ending his own life but the demon within him wont allow it. He says he feels better around me, like my presence makes him stronger. The feeling is mutual.

Knowing what has been going on with him helps but leaves me feeling guilty. It's all my fault and I shouldn't have left him. He says its fine but I can see the pain in his eyes. He still doesn't seem to eat. Once this is over, we will find a cure. With all the supernaturally magical beings on this planet, there has to be something we can do to help him. 

I'm so confused.

Selene said she had a cure, so Oonce the moon has passed, I'm going after her. Our pal Ron says she will be dealt with by them but I doubt anything they do will make up for her actions. I know you shouldn't act out of revenge, but since she has come into my life she has fucked it up in more than one way. She needs to be stopped and I need her to tell me how to fix Reece in the process.

I bet you're wondering about Logan.

Well, I don't know what to tell you. He is dead to me, simple. What ever he does, where ever he is - it's all out of my care range. I'll tell you this Bob, I was right to hate Trackers. Reece of all people seems to be on his side, he keeps trying to bring him up and swing me around to his way of thinking. Without realising it, Reece has been able to use some compulsion kind of crap on me but now i know about it, he can't.  Doesn't stop him from trying and I got him to subtly try it on Jordan and it didn't work - same with Mum.

I think it's that blood thing again.

-sigh- I could tell you more about what happened at the jail where I did my last entry from or I could tell you about my quick trip to Paris, which then led me to letting myself be caught and getting Jordan out. I could tell you about Opal and Sam and the demons I've seen along the way, but I can't be bothered. I came into my room to take a break from staring at the way out and to avoid questions about Logan from Mum.

I dread the day I have to hand you in Bob, maybe I will get a Bob 2 and just rewrite some stuff and make it look like I'm this hell pro Hunter who only focused on the job, not life - not the real things. I dunno, I'll work it out later. I'm going to go and annoy Dad some more, maybe get him to do some training with me. I want it to be over, I want Reece to be saved and for my family to have their lives back. I still keep thinking about leaving it all behind, and I hope I get to the point where I can make that choice because you know how I said I think this might be my last entry? I really did mean it.

Everything has been too easy, and this hide out seems too perfect. If I am right, well I'm not going to make it easy for them, I will fight until the end and then some.

Even if it kills me.

Goodbye Bob.

Elise Bunting.
