Runaway Girl Blog Tour (Post 3 of 3)


Runaway Blog Tour (Post 3 of 3)

Character Interview: Damian

When I offered to do this blog tour, I had no idea where it would lead. I got so much great stuff while working with Elaine that I asked for more than just my original day. One of my personal favorites is this character interview. First, I love the character Damian. And second, I think a character interview is a really cool idea! Read on and enjoy, then be sure to check out the other blogs in the rest of the tour. Thanks so much for being a part of this blog tour with me! ~Stephanie

Interviewer: Has it been easy for you to adjust to your new life?  
Damian: Not really. It’s helped having Kaitlin, but there’s a lot about being an elder and a clan leader than I never knew before. It will take time and I will need the patience of a saint, but I hope to do the job justice.

Interviewer: When did you know you wanted to become the leader of the clans?  
Damian: I can’t pinpoint an exact date, but it was probably sometime long after I realized Amelia never loved me. I knew that to be leader, it would mean we would have to be united and as much as that was a good thing for me back then, I was more worried about what she would do to the clan if she took over. I saw things in her that I didn’t like and at that point Matthew hadn’t come along. I guess I just realized that I cared more about the security and continuation of the clan, than I did about Amelia. That made up my mind.

Interviewer: Does Kaitlin understand about your feelings for Angela and Amelia?  
Damian:
Katie’s been great. She really gets that Lucius wanted my union with Amelia so badly that he resorted to using my own gift against me. She understands that I was vulnerable enough to fall for it after Angela was gone. Apparently, though, she really likes the fact that I still love Angela. That I always will. I think it’s something she understands because she feels it. Katie feels something for the Island, where she was born that is almost like a mother/daughter bond. She missed it and loves it still, but she can’t ever go back. That’s how it feels about Angela. I love her and miss her and she’ll always be a part of me, but she’s in my past and I can’t ever bring her back. I think it’s just another thing that Katie and I have in common. We feel things very deeply.

Interviewer: What is it like, having Trey as your best friend?  
Damian: It’s a real blessing. He’s so much stronger than I am. Without him, I’m not sure I would have survived the centuries. I starved myself for a long time, for a few different reasons and he was always there to look after me, to force me to feed if need be. He’ll always be my best friend.

Interviewer: What is the most important thing you hope to achieve as leader? -
Damian: Peace. That’s all I want. For years we’ve gone in a loop, between being hated, having to hide from the world and being hunted, then being exposed and targeted. I just want humans to realize that we’re not monsters. We’re not going to annihilate them from the earth and we don’t have to kill. I want to make sure that we can exist, peacefully, in harmony together rather than being afraid of one another.

Interviewer: If you could go back and make sure Amelia never killed you, would you do it and never become a vampire?
Damian: Never. I might have gone through centuries of hell, but I haven’t felt anything as strong as what I feel for Katie, since Angela. I know that if I went back and Lucius never turned me, I could continue my life with Angela and she would never have died and left me alone. But you can never tell how things might turn out. If I went back, there’s no guarantee that she wouldn’t die anyway, or that Amelia wouldn’t have come into the house and slaughtered us all in our sleep. I wouldn’t give up what I have with Katie for anything. We’ve got the rest of forever together, just the two of us and we can have children and we can have any life we want. I won’t ever let anything happen to Katie; not even if I could have Angela instead. And Angela would understand that.
