It’s time.Evil is running rampant and sweet Anna Whitt is its target. Nobody knows when or how the Dukes will strike, but Anna and her Nephilim allies will do anything necessary to rid the earth of the demons and their oppressive ways.The stakes are higher than ever, and Anna is determined that the love she feels will be her strength, not a liability. But trying to protect the ones she loves while running for her life and battling demonic forces proves to be perilous—especially as faces are changing and trust is fleeting. When the Duke of Lust sends Anna’s great love, Kaidan Rowe, to work against her, Anna must decide how much she’s prepared to risk.
In the most sensual and fast-paced installment yet, Sweet Reckoning brings all the beloved Neph together one last time to fight for their freedom.
Now on to the interview!
Blake,
son of the Duke of Envy, interviewing Kaidan, son of the Duke of Lust:
Blake:
*rubs hands together* Aw, yeah. This
is gonna be good. I’ve got some questions here that’ll make you blush, brah.
Kaidan:
*eyes him skeptically* When have you
known me to blush? Ever.
Blake:
That was then. You’re outta your game now that you’re all lovey-dovey and
romantic with Anna and shiz.
Kaidan:
We’ll see. *kicks his feet up with a grin
and twines fingers behind his head* What’ve you got, then? Make it good.
Blake:
*clears throat and flaps paper
importantly* First state your full name.
Kaidan:
*blanches and frowns*
Blake:
Hahahaha! *points to Kai’s face* You
are totally blushing! I win!
Kaidan:
I thought you’d be asking sex questions. This interview sucks.
Blake:
*grins* Answer the question, man.
Kaidan:
Fine… *through clenched teeth* Kaidan Demetrius Rowe
Blake:
*falls back and slaps his leg* Demetrius!
Hahaha!
Kaidan:
Shut it.
Blake:
How demonic. Your pop sure has a sense of humor.
Kaidan:
Next question, git.
Blake:
Alright, alright, grumpy. Okay, let’s start easy. I hear people pronounce your
name like “Kayden” all the time, and they spell it with an “e” instead of an
“a” when they write it out. Tell me…how does that make you feel when people get
your name wrong?
Kaidan:
*shrugs* I honestly couldn’t care less. Sometimes I try to help out, offering
some rhyming words—it’s Kai like Thai, Chai, Fry, Pie—
Blake:
I can’t help but notice you give all edible examples.
Kaidan:
Exactly. *winks* And don’t worry, mate—by the time they’re naked they’re
pronouncing it correctly. Over and over.
*both guys fist bump*
Blake:
Dude, you know Anna’s gonna read this, right?
Kaidan:
Er, yeah, you know what? Perhaps we can just delete that last answer.
Blake:
No can do, lover boy. Haha. And quit giving me the stink-eye. Anna knows you
don’t work anymore. You’re all good now.
Kaidan:
Yeah, that’s me. Good, good, good.
Blake:
But if she could’ve seen you in action back in the day…
Kaidan:
Okay, enough.
Blake:
Do you miss it?
Kaidan:
Hell, no.
Blake:
What’s your favorite position?
Kaidan:
That’s like asking a book nerd to pick their favorite book. Impossible. Too
many excellent ones.
Blake:
Damn. Thought I could take you by surprise with that question, but you didn’t
even flinch.
Kaidan:
Nice try.
Blake:
Alright then. How about your favorite body part? I mean, I already know this.
Everyone who knows you knows the answer to this, but we need it on record. All
official and whatnot.
Kaidan:
It’s the arse, all the way.
Blake:
Yup. Knew it. Seen the way you zone in on a nice butt like a fighter pilot
about to release his rocket at a target.
*another
fist bump*
Blake:
I’m a boob guy myself.
Kaidan:
Yes, I know. You’re a bit obvious, but instead of zoning in for business like I
do, you turn into an idiot with a goofy-arse grin.
Blake: I can’t help it… Boobies! *tongue hangs out*
Kaidan:
Tits are brilliant, but they come in third behind thighs for me. Wait, can I
say tits? Who’s reading this interview?
Blake:
Eh, I think you’re okay. Sorry, everyone who’s offended by Kai’s potty mouth.
Maybe we should chill out on the boobs and butt talk.
Kaidan:
Damn. Okay, then, carry on. Next question.
Blake:
I don’t know. I had other questions, but now all I can think about are boobs
and butts.
Kaidan:
You’re so inappropriate, Blake. I’m not certain how we stay friends.
Blake:
I know, right? *twists eyebrow bar in thought* Hey, you wanna hit the waves?
Kaidan:
You are so ADD. And yes. Let’s go.
Blake:
Sweet. I love you, man.
Kaidan:
You don’t love me. You just love my Kaidan Style.
Blake:
Alright, Snoop-Kai. Thanks for the interview. Can I get a hug?
Kaidan:
Only if you promise to cop a feel.
Blake:
*laughs* Dude. No one’s ever going to
trust us to do an interview together again.
Kaidan:
True. We can safely consider this our first and last. It’s been fun. Now, let’s
surf.
