Who is your greatest enemy and why?<\/strong><\/p>\n

My greatest enemy is the Knights of the Dragon. Those bastards have been coming after my kind for centuries. They\u2019ve found ways to capture us so they can drink our blood. It cures disease and prolongs life. They\u2019ve captured and killed many of\u00a0 my kind, and now they\u2019re threatening my family. We\u2019ve mostly tried to leave them alone and stay out of their way, but they won\u2019t leave us alone. So now I\u2019m taking the fight to them.<\/p>\n

Do you have a love interest?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Valeriya Azarov is my lady. And let me tell you that didn\u2019t happen easily since her sister is the head of the Knights of the Dragon.<\/p>\n

What is your weapon of choice?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019m a drakon. I am a weapon. When I shift to my dragon form, I\u2019m a fighting machine with few vulnerabilities. But I rely on my brain as well. That makes me a bigger threat than some of my brethren.<\/p>\n

Do you have a code of honor?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yes. I\u2019ve always had a live and let live attitude. But recent circumstances have changed that. Now my code is more fuck with me or mine and I\u2019ll kill you. Simple.<\/p>\n

If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Why would I change anything? I think I\u2019m perfect. My brothers and Valeriya might say I\u2019m a tad antisocial because I live in an underground bunker in the middle of nowhere. Until Valeriya came along, I lived by myself. That doesn\u2019t make me antisocial, that makes me smart.<\/p>\n

What do you think is your greatest strength?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The strength of my mind and the love I have for my brothers and Valeriya. There isn\u2019t anything I won\u2019t do to keep them safe.<\/p>\n

Name one person you trust.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I trust Valeriya and my brothers. That\u2019s pretty much it.<\/p>\n

Drakon\u2019s Prey<\/strong><\/p>\n

Blood of the Drakon, Book 2<\/p>\n

Valeriya Azarov turned her back on the family business to write and illustrate children\u2019s books. But with a sister who leads the Knights of the Dragon, it\u2019s impossible to get away from the secret society whose mission is to destroy and enslave dragons. When information falls into her hands along with the opportunity to save at least one of the ancient creatures, she can\u2019t turn away any longer.<\/p>\n

When a woman moves into the cabin above Tarrant Cooper\u2019s secret underground lair, he\u2019s both suspicious and intrigued. He hasn\u2019t lasted four thousand years being careless, so when he suspects her of being a part of the Knights, the plan is to kidnap her and find out how much the organization knows about him and his brothers.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s drawn to Valeriya, but trusting her could get him killed. Even if she\u2019s a pawn in the war between drakons and Knights, giving her his heart would mean forever.<\/p>\n
