May Interview - Day One

Hi, all! With all the excitement of my daughter's birthday and RT, I forgot to mention that this week is Interview Week.

I'm so very pleased to have with us one of the four princes of Drahcir, a hidden magical kingdom deep in the Scottish Highlands. Elric is the second to the youngest of the princes and will be with us for the week talking about his family, the curse on his family and kingdom and anything you would like to know about him.

We met the first of the brother's in the Phoenix Rising II anthology. Now, let me introduce Elric to you whose story you'll find in my upcoming May release Prince of Seduction.

DG: Good morning, Elric. Thank you for joining us.

Elric: ::bows head:: My pleasure.

DG: If you would, tell us about the curse.

Elric: ::glances away:: It began with one of my ancestors. At the time, the Fae walked Earth as we do and visited Drahcir often. Though all Fae are known for their beauty, my ancestor caught sight of a princess and set out to have her as his own. He had no intentions of marrying her, he just wanted to see if he could make a Fae fall in love with a human since all most all humans fell in love with the Fae.

DG: This doesn't have a happy ending.

Elric: Nay. The princess did fall in love with my ancestor, and instead of marrying her as he should have, he spurned her. It was a grave mistake on his part because she cursed all Sinclairs as well as our kingdom.

DG: And the curse is?

Elric: Each prince or princess must leave the safety of Drachir to find our mates. If we don't return at the specified time, the kingdom and all inhabitants cease to exist.

DG: Rather harsh, don't you think?

Elric: ::nods solemnly:: I've been searching for a couple of years, yet I am no closer to finding my mate than I was the day I left Drahcir.

DG: I wish I could help you somehow.

Elric: No one is allowed to aid us. Already the Fae, ashamed of what one of their own did, have helped us. They have hidden our kingdom and given us some of their magic to help us live on.

DG: Let me guess. The Fae aiding you most is Aimery.

Elric: ::blinks, startled:: How do you know him?

DG: ::laughs:: Ah, he likes to torment me mercilessly. He is a good man though, and if he is on your side, you will prevail.

Elric: ::leans forward in his chair and smiles seductively:: You know I am famed for my seduction.

DG: I do know.

Elric: I don't suppose you might be my mate? You would be a princess destined to live our her life in a magical kingdom.

DG: ::shakes head while laughing:: Sorry, Elric. I'm already taken.
