Keeping with my vast Vampires Realm<\/i><\/a> world for the next few interviews. This time, I’ve invited the very lovely Lilith into my interview room. I thought it was about time we heard from another heroine. If you’re not familiar with her, Lilith was the heroine in my vampire romance novel Seventh Circle<\/b><\/a> and at the start of the book she was working as a vampire hunter for Section Seven.<\/p>\n

(Lilith enters my interview room, casually dressed in a rich dark purple jumper and blue jeans. She smiles, gives a little wave, and then comes over and takes her seat opposite me. She toes her black trainers off and settles her feet on the black velvet armchair. Her glance back to the closed door is filled with longing. I smile)<\/p>\n

FH:<\/span><\/b> Thinking about Lincoln? <\/p>\n

LILITH:<\/span><\/b> (turns to me and smiles) I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m that transparent? (laughs and it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s hard for me to remember that she\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a vampire now, and the lady of her bloodline the Vehemens) You sort of called me in mid-kiss so you can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t blame me for being a little distracted. Lincoln can be such a stickler though. He made me stop and come in. I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m glad that he\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s always mindful of his duty and those sorts of things, as it really helped me when I was adjusting, but I would have liked to have finished that kiss.<\/p>\n

FH:<\/span><\/b> I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m sure it will be there waiting for you when you get back to him. So, what have you been up to since we last saw you?<\/p>\n

LILITH:<\/span><\/b> I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve finally taken control of the bloodline. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s still difficult for me but Lincoln is really helping me with all the politics of it and he really runs the bloodline for me. I just listen to his advice and do whatever he suggests. I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t think he\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s noticed yet that he\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s really running the bloodline. (giggles) I could probably disappear again for a few months and they wouldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t notice if he was there. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s nice having someone I can count on though.<\/p>\n

FH:<\/span><\/b> And how has your romance with Lincoln been doing? You showed up recently at the centenary Creator Day masquerade and seemed very happy together. I think you made a few women jealous that night.<\/p>\n

LILITH:<\/span><\/b> I did? (looks astonished, her fair eyebrows rising high on her forehead) I think I was so wrapped up in concentrating on behaving as a lady should that I didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t even notice anything that was happening around me. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a little nerve wracking to be surrounded by so many vampires and have everyone watching you. I felt as though they were waiting for me to slip up. It was my first official engagement as lady of the Vehemens. Unfortunately there are some things I can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t just let Lincoln handle. I would have felt calmer and more relaxed if Eve had been there.<\/p>\n

FH:<\/span><\/b> Eve is your twin, and she\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s also a Vehemens vampire now. Has she joined the bloodline in Oslo?<\/p>\n

<\/a>
LILITH:<\/span><\/b> Yes. Tor and Oneiric brought her to us over two years ago now. I was a little shocked when Tor came in with Eve in tow that night, his hand clutching hers. I was convinced for a moment it was to stop Eve from running away. Lincoln didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t seem very shocked. The sight of Tor… I mean… you have to see the man, he\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s immense and cold as ice… holding my sister\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s hand and treating her so gently was very troubling at first. Eve assures me that Tor loves her but it just doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t seem possible. <\/p>\n

FH:<\/span><\/b> I am familiar with Tor. He doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t exactly come across as the sort of man you want your sister dating, but I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m sure that Eve is right and that Tor loves her. He seems very protective of her, a little like Lincoln is with you.<\/p>\n

LILITH:<\/span><\/b> (smiles) Yes, Lincoln is very protective of me. I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t think it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s just because I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m his mate either. He\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s always been protective me, ever since we first met… back when I was still a vampire hunter. It was a strange thing for me to grasp back then. A vampire desiring to protect a vampire hunter. Lincoln is a very complicated man though and knows his heart, and I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m glad that he made me realise my feelings for him and kept fighting for me.<\/p>\n

FH:<\/span><\/b> That\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s so sweet. Anyone who saw you dancing at the masquerade would be able to tell you that he\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s really madly in love with you. I swear he didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t let you out of arm\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s reach all night and spent most of it on the dance floor with you. <\/p>\n

LILITH:<\/span><\/b> Who\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s to say that we were there for all those dances because of him? I wasn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t about to let him step more than a foot away from me when there were so many beautiful women looking for partners and a chance to dance with a powerful vampire of another bloodline. I was staking my territory.<\/p>\n

FH:<\/span><\/b> Well, it certainly worked. You managed to keep your mate in your arms all evening. I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t think you would have had a problem with him though. Lincoln only has eyes for you. He would have ignored any dance requests that came from other women. In fact, he probably wouldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t have even heard them in the first place. The man is completely absorbed by you.<\/p>\n

LILITH:<\/span><\/b> The feeling is quite mutual.<\/p>\n

FH:<\/span><\/b> I really enjoyed writing down your story, Seventh Circle, and working with you on it. What was it like to have your story told and know that people have been reading it?<\/p>\n

LILITH:<\/span><\/b> It was exciting and definitely a story that needed to be told. Section Seven is one of the pure bloodlines\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 deadliest enemies and the things they have done deserve to be documented, as well as our fight against them, and of course my romance with Lincoln. It was strange at first to think that people were reading our story but now I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve grown used to the idea. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s exciting that readers have picked up the book and know about mine and Lincoln\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s love story now.<\/p>\n

FH:<\/span><\/b> I have a few silly questions that I like to ask the people I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m interviewing. Firstly, what\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s your favourite colour?<\/p>\n

LILITH:<\/span><\/b> Hmm, I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m not a fan of one colour in particular. I do like red when it colours Lincoln\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s eyes because it makes me realise how hungry he still is for me.<\/p>\n

FH:<\/span><\/b> And your favourite smell?<\/p>\n

LILITH:<\/span><\/b> Lincoln\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s aftershave mixing with the scent of the lake, the trees and the snow on the mountains when we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve escaped to the cabin together. He likes to sit out under the stars on the picnic table and have me seated between his thighs with my back to him, holding me. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s very romantic.<\/p>\n

FH:<\/span><\/b> It sounds it. Your favourite possession?<\/p>\n

LILITH:<\/span><\/b> I heard that Lord Valentine called Lady Prophecy his favourite possession. If that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s allowed then it has to be Lincoln, although I would never call him a possession. He\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s the best thing in my life, together with my sister.<\/p>\n

FH:<\/span><\/b> Favourite thing to do?<\/p>\n

LILITH:<\/span><\/b> Walk the grounds of the Oslo mansion at night with my sister talking about men. (laughs) We always start out on another subject entirely, like how stressful it is running a bloodline and how busy we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve been… and then somehow we end up on Lincoln and Tor. If they ever heard the things we said about them, they would have egos bigger than the house!<\/p>\n

FH:<\/span><\/b> And finally, what\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s your favourite time of year?<\/p>\n

LILITH:<\/span><\/b> I still love summer. In Oslo, summer is terrible because there\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s such little night, but it hasn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t changed my love of that season. I like the warmth in the air and the sense that all is well in the world it brings with it.<\/p>\n

FH:<\/span><\/b> Thanks for taking the time to talk with me. I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll let you get back to that kiss now. I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m sure Lincoln is waiting for you.<\/p>\n

(Lilith smiles, slips her trainers back on, and leaves in a hurry)<\/p>\n

Did you all enjoy this catch up with Lilith?<\/p>\n

Seventh Circle<\/b><\/span><\/a><\/div>\n

F E Heaton<\/b>
Born with powers similar to a vampire\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s, Lilith has spent her life hunting demons for Section Seven. On the same night as she watches a vampire kill her best friend, she is faced with her worst nightmare\u00e2\u20ac\u201da client who is not only attractive but a vampire.<\/p>\n

Lincoln is a powerful pureblood with a problem. He\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s caught up in a prophecy and has little time left to unravel the mystery of the contract between his lord and the Devil before he dies. When witches foretell that a vampire hunter will save his life, he\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s prepared to work with his most hated enemy, but he isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t prepared for the forbidden desire he feels when he meets her.<\/p>\n

Their mutual attraction becomes difficult to deny as they work together but when Lincoln reveals the truth about her powers, will Lilith find the strength to embrace a side of herself that she wished didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t exist? And when they discover Lilith\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s role in the prophecy, how far will Lincoln go to save her?<\/p>\n

Dark, sensual and fast-paced, Seventh Circle is a story of forbidden love so strong that it will save the world.<\/p>\n
