An Interview with Jagger
I have to be honest. I approached this interview with some hesitation, perhaps even a little trepidation. After all, even though I feel I know him a bit through Cordelia, I’ve never experienced Jagger directly. As he sits before me, I can empathize with Cordelia. He is impossibly magnetic, his aura both powerful and dangerous, the only release, a hint of humor gleaming in his silver-gray eyes.IR: Jagger, thank you so much for agreeing to this interview. Are you excited about starting a new year at the Academy?
Jagger:
My pleasure. I am, though I’m not exactly sure what my role will be this year.
I guess I’ll find out when I get there.
Jagger:
My pleasure. I am, though I’m not exactly sure what my role will be this year.
I guess I’ll find out when I get there.
IR: So,
you’re not heading back as the Student Council President?
Jagger: I
wouldn’t think so. That position is usually only awarded for a year. Plus, my
time at the academy is officially over.
IR: Why
are you going back, then?
Jagger:
Mainly to keep an eye on my brother, Ryker.
IR: And
Cordelia?
Jagger:
Yes, hmm. You said that you had some questions from my fans...
IR: I do!
Here is one from Sean Sweeney. He wants to know what you got Cordelia for
Valentine’s Day.
Jagger:
Myself. However, like any girl, she obviously needed a “token” as well. I got
her a little secret something from Harry Winston.
IR: Nice!
The next question is about Cordelia as well. Al Kunz, the infamous celeb book
blogger, aka The Snake, wants to know what really happened on the slopes. He
wants details.
Jagger:
He couldn’t handle the details.
IR: LOL!
There you have it, Al! Moving on... Michelle Cable wants to know what you
thought when you first saw Cordelia and what you thought of that electrifying
kiss.
Jagger:
That she’s stunning is apparent to all who are lucky enough to behold her. I
was struck by her beauty as soon as I saw her, when she first arrived at the
academy. It was my policy to stay away from demons, though. Every kiss with her
is electrifying, but I’m guessing you mean our very first kiss. I was shocked,
but immediately realized what had happened.
IR: Too
bad that doesn’t happen to humans. Synching sounds unbelievably intimate...
Jagger:
It is, but the realization that one is bound forever to this one being
frightening, too. That’s unnatural in the supernatural world.
IR: I can
see that. Faustine seems to bridge the gap between the human and the paranormal
worlds. My daughter Lauren wants to know what you think of Faustine, and Vickie
Boehnlein wants to know if you’re scared of Faustine.
Jagger: I
love Faustine. She’s like a little sister to me. I feel very protective of her,
even though I know that she can take care of herself. And yes, I’m scared of
her. I’d be stupid not to be. She’s one of the most powerful demons I’ve ever
come across.
IR:
Demons seem to like their food, meat in particular. Lynn O’Dell would like to
know if you prefer filet mignon or T-bones?
Jagger:
I’m not a demon, but I do prefer Filet Mignon.
IR: That
doesn’t surprise me. I have a last question from my friend Allirea Brumley. She
wants to know what’s going to happen to you next?
Jagger:
I’m not a Wanderer, so a trip into the future to answer that is not possible.
Say “hi” to her from me, though. I love her name... Allirea. Is she a faery?
IR: Ha,
ha. No, I don’t think so. Thank you so much, Jagger!.jpg)
