Bambi And The Duke

Heidi: I wouldn't go that far. He makes sure to come to visit me once every day. Nicholas says the ghoul likes me.

Nicholas Rune: He does. He is a tsundere. I don't even ask him to look after her. I am here for her.

Interviewer: *nods* so that's how it is. Do both the ghouls get along with each other? I heard there was a fight.

Nicholas Rune: Yes, they do. It is just sometimes, someone decides to go off track where I need to step in. The fabricated world is complex where one should not wander for far too long. As it comes indirectly from me through the ghouls, it isn't good for a living creature to step in.

Interviewer: So it was alright for our Vivi and Leo because only their soul resided there?

Nicholas Rune: Yes

Interviewer: It does sound different. The next question is for you, Lord Nicholas*reads the cue cards* which is not related to you *trails* What do you think of Damien and Penelope?

Nicholas: My... aren't you and the others nosy *smiles sweetly* I shall pass this question

Interviewer: Heidi,?does your painful memories from the slave establishment returns back to you and gives you nightmares even now?

Heidi: I don't think I have remembered it in a while now. I had them recurring before but it got better. With time everything heals, even the deepest wounds.

Interviewer: Heidi tell me something good and bad about your husband. I would like even Vivian and Katherine's views on the same question.

Heidi: Shall I start with good or bad?

Nicholas: *raises his eyebrows* There's something bad about me? This should be interesting *he smiles looking at hi wife*

Heidi: Sometimes I worry that the council is going to come the day where he kills someone.

Interviewer: Have you caught him killing people? *remembers the time her cousin's head was smashed like a melon on the ground*

Heidi: It is quite normal for me.

Interviewer: Does it bother you? Him killing

Heidi: No. Even though he comes to be cunning, I believe he does things because people deserve them. He is very curious about things and people around him. It must be something that Everest acquired from him.

Interviewer: Lord Nicholas have you painted Heidi's portrait? Especially knowing you did one for Leonard and Vivian.

Heidi: I think we can skip that question.

Interviewer: *looks confused*

Nicholas Rune: I did. There are so many portraits but my wife doesn't appreciate it *who looked away as if he were pouting playfully* They are just some which is embarrassed about...

Interviewer: *clears throats* How about you Katherine?

Katherine: Alexander was really difficult in the beginning. With the amount of him teasing me with the push and pull that almost broke my heart. It is like having a bully.

*Audience sympathizes with Katie*

Katherine: But he is protective of me. Also looking after my cousin's brother, Ralph when it was needed. When I was pregnant, you should have seen *chuckles to herself* I wasn't allowed to lift ot walk on the stairs.

Interviewer: Weren't you bored sitting in one place.

Katherine: Not at all. Alex was there to carry me around in his arms *grins*

Alexander: Anything for you

Interviewer: Lord Alexander did you have any feelings towards Katie when she was a little girl *lowers his hand to the little Katie's height.

Lord Alexander: As Nicholas said, you really do have some narrow mind to think the only?relationship a male and female shares is romantic *gives a sharp look at the man and then at the camera facing him*

Interviewer: I don't know why I am being scolded when it is the readers *mutters to himself*

Lord Alexander: I was merely looking out for her. Nicholas wasn't the only one who was under the radar of the eyes of the few councilmen.

Interviewer: Why didn't you ever look for your mother?

Lord Alexander: My mother was dead not lost. Would you go looking for someone who was burnt in front of your eyes where you have touched the ashes with your hand?

Interviewer: ...

Author-san: Lord Alexander didn't know about his mother until Vivian told it herself.

Alexander Delcrov: *looks at his watch*

Interviewer: Apologies Lord Alexander *seeing the man nod the interviewer let a relieved sigh* You said that Damien is your cousin. Could you shed some light on him as the readers are not sure of what is going in his mind. We never heard of him until now *he hoped Lord Alexander would answer it unlike Lord Nicholas who sleekly let the question pass*

Alexander Delcrov: Damien is one of my paternal cousins. From my father's side. He lives in Bonelake. The entire book of Katherine and I was worked on in Valeria. So we heard very little from him. He did attend our wedding though.

Interviewer: Oh

Alexander Delcrov: Damien has his own mood *the lord smiled, a lopsided smile on his lips which confused the rest* He's a good cousin of mine.

Interviewer: *wondering if he got anything there at all* Um, I don't know if I should tell this but the readers have been having their own discussions. And they weren't good, they said he needs vampire therapy. They were also wondering how he works in the council.

Alexander Delcrov: He is an excellent councilman. Very niche at what he does *laughs* if you're talking about therapy, I am sure the readers have suggested that to us too.

Nicholas Rune: I should perhaps send my ghouls to make sure if they still think we need therapy *his words being thoughtful with a small smile*

Interviewer: A few quick questions to you too, Lord Alexander. The first one, regarding to Vivian. You once said she was a key. Unfortunately, we never came to see what that key you were speaking of.

Alexander Delcrov: What are you saying? Everyone had read and spoke about it *receives confused look* Not all but some of the pureblooded vampires are blessed with abilities. Vivian is such a gifted person to have a gift so unique that she could surpass anyone here in this room. I said she was a key because I knew there was something going on in the council. But even if you are part of the council, understanding and getting answers to the unidentified questions is hard. The council was filled with corruption before but now it is better.

She had the ability of touch which allows her to read and see about an object and any person which makes her the key to our universe. I am sure Leonard would agree if I said that the cases he worked on which he solved moved even quicker after her joining the council. Author-san here likes to leave clues all around the place, she likes it when readers identify those subtle things instead of serving them the dish straight.

Author-san: *grins*

Interviewer: Readers want to know if the fire is still the same as before with Katherine. Now that you have two children.
