Felicity Heaton Guest Post


Interview with an alpha vampire – Andreu, hero of ENSLAVE

It’s great to be here at The Enchanted Book for the next stop in my Vampirerotique Summer Book Tour.

Today, I was lucky enough to lure the very hot alpha vampire, Andreu, into my lair to talk about his book, ENSLAVE, and his lovely succubus heroine.

FH: I have Andreu here with me today to talk about his book, Enslave. Firstly, can you tell us a little about yourself?

ANDREU: I am an elite vampire and was raised in northern Spain, which makes me Catalan rather than Spanish. I turned five hundred recently and I am the younger brother of Javier, Vampirerotique’s staff manager, and I’m here at the theatre to cover for him while he gets hitched and goes on his honeymoon. I have other reasons for being at the theatre too. I want to learn everything I can about the business so I can open a successful erotic theatre for myself in my home city of Barcelona. I have done many things in my years. As a vampire, it’s imperative that I adapt to the world as it grows and changes. I was a warrior once and now I am a businessman. Some would say that it isn’t such a big leap. Both tend to involve tactics and battles of some sort or another.

FH: In Enslave, you meet a very sassy succubus. I understand I can’t use her name because a fae’s real name is powerful and I don’t want anyone getting ideas about using her name against her. Everyone at the theatre has come to call her by her new nickname, Chica. How did you meet and how did you feel about her initially?

ANDREU: I appreciate you not divulging her name. She chose the name Chica because I called her it several times during the lead up to our relationship, and continue to call her it now. She likes it a lot and the rest of theatre seem at ease about calling her by that name. I met her when she teleported into Vampirerotique during one of the shows. Not the wisest thing she could have done but now that I know her better, and I know how big that curiosity of hers is, I understand why she did it. Succubi use a sort of spell to veil themselves. Hers slipped and I saw her, and I knew right then that I wanted her. She’s beautiful... but deadly. It was hard for me at first. My warrior instincts said to fight to protect myself and that she was out to kill me, and the rest of me said to give in to her advances and just go with it and see what happened.

FH: I hear she really stirred up the theatre though and almost divided you boys into two factions—those in favour of killing her, and those who said to leave her be and not harm her. It sounds as though you couldn’t decide which side you should choose.

ANDREU: I really couldn’t. She was tearing me in two directions and I wasn’t sure which was the right path to take. In the end, the decision was made for me and while I’m still not happy about what happened, I’m glad that it gave me a chance to get to know her better and give up my fight.

FH: Your relationship with Chica is forbidden due to her succubus clan’s laws and also complicated because of what she is. Was it difficult at first?

ANDREU: Very difficult. Not so much for me, but for her. I never realised just what she was going through. She kept it hidden from me and I just thought it was a cool thing. I was forbidden fruit. It doesn’t get better than that, right? Wrong. I should have been more open to her and tried to find out what was going on in that pretty little head of hers. There were a few moments that scared the hell out of me too. It’s not easy when the woman you want to kiss might just kill you if her succubus nature gets a little frisky.

FH: No, it certainly doesn’t sound like a great match, but it worked out in the end and now you’re together. How has life been since the end of your story?

ANDREU: More interesting than it was before my story. *smiles* I’ve been really busy with the theatre but every moment I can spare, I’m working with Payne. He’s been fantastic. I know he and Chica don’t get along, and now that I know a few things about them I can understand why, but he really has been a great help. He doesn’t stop trying to help her and that has given her a reason to trust him and they have been getting along much better. It makes my life a lot easier as I had begun to grow close to Payne since we joined as the new recruits to cover for Javier and Callum. Chica keeps me busy too. That girl has a huge appetite and let’s just say I’m happy to provide her with sustenance.

FH: I bet you are, you pervert. *he grins* Your story, Enslave, is a book in a series. Can you tell us a little about the series and can we expect see more of you in other stories in this series?

ANDREU: Absolutely. You’ll be seeing more of us in the next story and probably the one after that. I think my romance was book four or five?

FH: Four.

ANDREU: Book four. I know that a lot happened before I joined the theatre. Dios, my own brother lost his mind and his heart to a mortal female... Callum, his best friend, went off the rails and fell for a werewolf... and Sera somehow managed to turn Antoine from an ice giant into a puppy... well, maybe not quite a puppy, but he’s much more amiable these days. I’ve heard that everyone is waiting for Snow to find love. He needs something good to happen to him. The guy is a train wreck waiting to happen.

FH: Yes, I’ve heard he’s not doing so well at the moment, but that he has also been enjoying getting up to mischief with the help of the ladies. I bet your Chica is the ringleader in that naughtiness.

ANDREU: She’s very good at causing trouble, and so is Snow. He has really embraced the females and in a way, I’m glad of it. Having Snow in your corner is a great thing.

FH: I’ll end on something I ask all of my interviewees. Describe yourself in one word?

ANDREU: Passionate.

FH: I’m not going to dispute that one. Thank you for meeting with me today and chatting.

ANDREU: Thank you for having me here and I hope readers will pick up a copy of my rather sassy and sexy romance. I still think it’s the best one in the series.

FH: Readers and reviewers have been raving about it, but I think that will only last until Snow gets his own book. I have to interview your lady next, so be prepared for her to bare all about you.

ANDREU: *laughs* I can’t wait to read it. Take care.

FH: You too. *watches as he leaves* I can’t wait to interview his woman.

Felicity Heaton
His determination to succeed in business has left no room in his life for love. Now, a beautiful and deadly succubus has teleported into his dark, decadent world and is in danger of enslaving his heart.

Andreu’s future entails opening an erotic theatre like Vampirerotique, gaining wealth, women and power, not shackling himself to a single female, but he cannot deny the dangerously seductive woman who stirs his anger and passion, and tempts him like no other—he will have her.

The moment their eyes meet, Varya knows she cannot have the exotic dark vampire who sets her pulse racing. His shadowed aura marks him as forbidden, but the hungers he awakens in her are too intense to resist—she must have a taste.

When an erotically-charged kiss ignites their soul-searing passion and reveals something dangerous about Andreu, will Varya leave forever or will she dare to risk all in pursuit of something she thought was beyond her reach?
