Today I got the pleasure of talking with Nerina Simpson.  I actually flew to an undisclosed location to interview her.  I can't say where obviously.  She met me at the airport and took me to a nice little cafe.  The food was great and the people were nice.  She's wearing a black sweater and some Jeans with some Kick ass thigh boots you can barely see her Jeans because she is mostly cover by the boots.  Its a cute outfit and it fits her.  She wore her hair pulled back in a bun and wearing her shades. She also has a very huge dog with her that she calls Demon.  After we're done eating she slides a couple of photos to me and says that I can use them for the interview.  Which I know is rare due to the fact that she's technically in hiding. I turn on the tape recorder to begin our interview.

Tigris:  Nerina Simpson is that your real name? I know your in hiding so I only wanted to ask to get a better feel for the situation that your in.

Nerina:  That is so funny that you would ask me that, but know Nerina Simpson is not my real name and I don't mind telling you T because you look like a person I can trust. Can I call you T? 

 Tigris:  Sure you can

 As were talking Demon starts sniffing my leg, I was a bit nervous because this dog looks like a wolf with his pale blue eyes, but he seems pretty nice so I rub his head and continue talking to Nerina.

Tigris:  So your real name is?

Nerina: Its Isabeau di Bagnoregio but all my friends call me Rina always have.  I could never use that name in school or my Stepmother Ana would have killed my parents a long time ago.

Tigris:  So it was your stepmother who killed your parents? 

Nerina: Yeah her and that bastard Unlce of mine Marcus.

She gets a little nervous now but she continues to speak.

 Nerina:  Yeah she found out about my dads affair with my mother, she worked as a waitress at a Strip Joint called Candies, my father Victor di Bagnoregio who was the head of the Civiti Family in Italy and New York City.

Tigris: So your mother was black and your father is Italian, nice combination and your very beautiful anyone ever  tell you, you like like that singer Alicia Keys?

Nerina: Yeah, I get the all the time, except were very different me and her she's a nice person but I am a cold hard Bitch! People can tell the difference right away when they approach me. I guess I get that from my father.

She keeps looking over her shoulder and I reach out and grab her hand. 

Tigris: Where safe here, besides you picked the place out and from what I researched you use to work for your father as a bodyguard? Is that right? 

Nerina: Yeah T, I did. Right after I got out of the military he approached me with the job offer I couldn't refuse.

She laughs and continues talking 

Nerina: Yeah fresh out of the service he asked me to give him my services he knew I worked with the Special Ops, I was their linguist but I also could handle myself pretty well. But I took the job to be close to my father.  We didn't get to spend much time together because of his wife.  He made sure that I went to all the right schools and he loved my mother very much.  But life is hard. 

Tigris: So when your mother and father died you just left town to get away from your stepmother and uncle?

Nerina: Not quite.  I caught her sleeping with my uncle and then when I went to my mother's house that night to tell my father the house blew up.  I escaped but they assumed the maids body was mine.  I got burned pretty badly and I have been on the run ever since.

Tigris:  So they know your alive then? 

Nerina: I don't know how they know but they do. So what else do you want to know? 

Tigris: Anything you want to tell me I am curious about your relationship status and how you are socially.

Nerina: That's kinda hard T because I am always moving around I am never commit to a single relationship.  But I know what your asking about and me and Victor are no where near friends, or dating.  He's a prick and he thinks his big and bad.  I don't pay any attention to him at all.  And just to put the record straight. I did not sleep with him when we were trapped in the cave. 

Tigris: Wow that was quick and I didn't even get to ask about Victor.

Nerina:  Don't worry T. I am not upset with you, but for the record I don't do relationships I am too busy trying to watch my back, I like where I live and I hope I don't have to move anytime soon. Thanks for talking to me. I hope you got everything you needed. 

She leaves the diner with Demon and turns to give me a smile one last time before she walks out into the daylight.  Do I have everything I need. Not really but she really didn't want to talk about her relationship with Victor.  I understand. I really do I just hope she doesn't get mad at me when she finds out what she is to him.  

Here are the pictures she gave me.  I did find outthat she was in fact military and some of these photos show her harsh and others show her as being soft.  But the pictures were talking of her in varies stages of her life.

Every once in a while I get a chance to talk to some very interesting people. Earlier today I had the please of speaking with Victor Canidae. Not really a morning person as he lives in Alaska and I am here in Texas. He kept harassing me and so I finally caved. So he agreed to the interview and promised that he would tell me as much about his life that he is able to share. Just a brief description of what he looks like Victor is 6'3 probably about two bucks and half. Black hair and spruce green eyes. He keeps his hair shoulder length. Victor has a goat tee that surrounds a full set of luscious lips, that he enjoys licking from time to time. (He knows it gets the females riled up) He also has his jaw edged up nicely if you can picture that. Abs you can not only wash your shirt on but damn they put the saying 'washboard abs' to shame. Broad shoulders and gorgeous ass that's perfect for squeezing. His legs are powerful and his jaw is strong. He's a hell of a sculpture. Yes, I know he's hot but, he freakin lives in fucking cold ass Alaska! He's also a werewolf.

So its Thanksgiving, and my house smells like a bakery. My boys and husband are in the family room watching the game and my dads hovering again. He always hovers. Myself on the other hand is anxiously anticipating Victors call. He's agreed to call in the morning and then I am free to ask as many questions as I can. He does mention that he doesn't want to talk about Nerina and if I could possibly keep the question to a minimum, since he has agreed to help me get to better understand him. According to him there is no relationship between them. So I sit down in front of my computer, unfortunately no one's online. There's a string of tweets sitting on Tweet deck but from hours before.

I still Tweet my status:

Tigris_Eden I'm excited about my upcoming meeting!

I'm not really popular on but I do have a few peeps that I talk to on a regular basis but Larissa Sarah chimes in:

Larissa_Sarah @Tigris_Eden @JoJosBookCorner I just got home from TG dinner at @Gigib88's house =))))

Tigris_Eden @Larissa_Sarah Great about to have an interview.

As I am waiting for her to chime a response the phone rings. I can hear my husband curse about the phone ringing and my son and I answer the phone at the same time, he was waiting for a call from his coach. "Hi Coach Black....Hello? No one answers on the other end of the phone but I know its Victor. I tell my son to go ahead and hang up the phone. He hangs up and before I can even speak I hear that smooth whiskey voice over the phone. Its almost hypnotizing when he talks, and sexy as hell because I can tell he just woke up. Victor asked me if I was in the habit of scheduling phone interviews so early in the day, he's only 3 hours behind me but I guess it is pretty early for him. He actually wanted to hold this interview at 11pm which would be 2am which would have done no good for me as I would be asleep. There's an uncomfortable silence over the line, and I can hear him breathing and then it sounds like he was adjusting the phone, he must still be in bed.

Tigris:We can do this later, sounds like your still in bed.

Victor:No I won't have time later I have a dinner and I want to spend some time with my nephew Teak so lets go ahead with the questions

I grab my index cards and start at the beginning.

Tigris: Victor your last name means wolf or canine in Latin?

Victor: Didn't know you asked me here for a Language lesson.

He kind of laughs at me but then answers the question.

Victor: It can be either

Tigris:Victor some of the questions may seem a little mundane, but honestly I just want to get a better feel for you. I don't want to mis represent you in any way?

Victor:Okay ask away, lets give the people what they want. I don't mind the questions. I'm just not an early riser.

Tigris: How old are you?

Victor: I'll be 87 on the summer solstice, but in human terms I would look about 34. I'm still a strong strapping Alpha though wouldn't you say?

(Umm Hell yeah!) I didn't say that out loud because I know it's a trap. He loves to have his ego stroked. What man doesn't? So I continue on.

Tigris:So can you explain the aging process?

Victor:Nope, I'll let you be creative in that area.

Sneaky Bastard, doesn't he get I need help developing his character!

Tigris:So why does your family live way out in Talkeetna Alaska?

Victor: My family and I immigrated to Alaska about 60 years ago. We're from the old country, and we had to move here to get away from the hunters.

Tigris:Hunters?

Victor:They're a group or a cult of men and women who see our kind as a threat, but hunt us for the potency of our blood. But its all bullshit really. We don't eat babies and our touch their females, its really complicated and its an old sore that continues to be open every generation.

I can tell this is a sensitive subject for him so I move on.

Tigris:How do you feel about taking over as pack leader?

Victor:I'm honored and humbled. There are so many things that need to happen with in our small community. I want to make my father proud of me.

Tigris:What's your favorite thing to do?

Victor:I enjoy running in the woods with my nephew. It also helps me keep this nice body.

I couldn't help but picture that body so I just had to ask him.

Tigris:What are you wearing right now?

I could picture that sinful grin and the glint of mischief in his eyes.

Victor:Sweat pants, no shirt or socks I usually sleep in the nude, but I don't feel right walking around with my cock hanging out while I'm talking on the phone to a nice woman that would be rude.

TMI!

Tigris:So then you got bed head?

Figured that was the only way to respond to that last comment.

Victor:Yeah and a days growth of beard, but I'm not really to concerned. Once I get up I'll get myself together.

Tigris:So this dinner tonight is a big deal then?

Victor:Yeah both packs are getting together, Sasha's family and my family. I have a mating ceremony to get ready for.

Tigris:How do you feel about the pairing?

Victor:Its a good match it will make both packs one large supportive pack. Our numbers have declined over the years and my father wants cubs as soon as possible. I have a duty to the pack.

Tigris:What's bedding rights?

Victor:Damn I don't know how to explain that shit without sounding like an ass. Its before you mate with someone. The male and female both have bedding rights. It doesn't create tension and as long as you don't have the mating mark or scent everyone and anyone is fair game. As long as they are consenting. There's no fighting that way. Although it has happened on a few occasions.

Tigris:Can you explain the mating mark and mating scent?

Victor:Its just something to signify that one is mated. For men they have a smell, for women there is a marking on the insides of their wrists. On the very rare occasion you will have a VAS mating where both male and female carry matching marks and scent. The males mark is on the palm of his hand as is the womens in that instance. Haven't seen a VAS mating since I have been around.

Tigris:Why doesn't Thorn and the others care for Nerina living in town.

Victor:Simple she's human but pop puts up with her because of Daar and Demon.

Tigris:How do you feel about Nerina living in town?

It takes him a moment to answer and there is an uncomfortably quiet.

Victor: No comment.

Okay I knew he wouldn't answer but I thought if I threw it in he would bite.

Tigris:Have you ever had sex with a human woman"

Victor:Yeah

Tigris:Who?

Victor:No comment

Tigris: So backing up a bit. What exactly is a VAS?

Victor:In short its our destined soul mate, something I'll never have.

Tigris:So you admit that you and Sasha aren't true mates

Victor:Well yeah there is a difference this was a paring. Don't get me wrong and don't take this the wrong way but she has nice tits. She's gorgeous but she's more of a pretty picture to look at. Something you can't get dirty. I need dirty.

Tigris:Can you tell me your weakness?

Victor:Shit that's really hard, I don't know that I have any.

He laughs

Victor:Well maybe one; I love Fred Austere and Ginger Roger movies. I love the way they dance together. Fred's a bad ass motherfucker, and Gingers is hot but on screen she plays the nice girl, I know deep down inside is a woman who wants to be dirty.

He laughs again and then I can hear a pounding on a door.

Victor:"Hey I gotta go we have issues over here sorry, but I have to cut this short, hope you got everything you needed. For the most part it should be good, besides you know me, make up some shit, be creative. I'm just another figment of your imagination, bye T.
