Esther Anne Joseph (14) is the neighbor of Colton Gage. She goes to school with him, Kaylie and Oliver Hale and Ava Acaedo, and is best friends with Oliver and Ava. She knows that Ava's a vampire and that Oliver's sister is a vampire hunter. She suspected that her neighbors weren't human, and found out they were werewolves when Ava came over to her house and could smell it. The Gage's weren't aware that Esther knew all these secrets until Colton made some snide remark about Ava and Esther slapped him and starting yelling at him in his front yard.
