Hello everyone! I am so excited to be back for a third time! For those that don't know me I am, OutOfMyLimit17, aka Kenadee. I am a romance/teen fiction writer here on Wattpad. I have been on here for 4 years now and it has been the best 4 years of my life. I cannot thank Wattpad and everyone on here for that.
And a huge thank you to Kelly for doing this event for yet another year and doing amazing! Thank you for letting me be apart of it again.
So onto my post....Below is a character interview with the cast of my book "The Hidden Shadow". This is my first time doing a character interview so sorry in advance! If you liked the characters feel free to check the book out on my profile. It is a mafia type of story just warning you before hand :)
Don't forget about entering the giveaway! So many great prizes and you can win a dedication from me!
* * * * * * * * *
These are some questions sent by readers to the characters of "The Hidden Shadow". They will answer but don't expect a real answer. And expect occasionally fights between everyone. Interviewer: Me, the author.
First off, tell us a bit of what the story is about.
Jessie Wright: It is about how crappy my life is and how everyone you love leaves.
Leonardo Russo: Well that is a horrible way to describe it. Although the start of the book it is that way, until you meet me, then your life became amazing.
*Jessie rolls eyes at Leo*
Jessie: I don't think kidnapping me would be described as amazing.
Leo: I told you it was for your own safety. And you ended up staying longer than you wanted. I saved your life.
Rowan Marino: None of this was my idea. I wanted her gone from the moment I met her.
Jessie: You were just jealous I kicked your ass that night.
Hey language! Remember kids could be seeing this! Now continue on topic please....
Jessie: *sighing* The story is about how I became an assassin known as Lea Mathews. My adoptive father, Byron, took me in and trained me to be his weapon until one day I snapped. Then as I said about this idiot *points to Leo*, he kidnapped me and brought me to his house. From there things just went more downhill. That's the gist of it all.
Thank you. Now onto the first question.
Parker Fontana: SORRY! We are here! The best person you will ever meet has arrived.
Leo: You are late.
Parker: It takes time to look this good *gestures to body* It doesn't happen overnight. And now that you have interrupted me let me get back to introducing myself. Hello, I am Parker aka the greatest person in the room.
Brody: Ignore him, we all do. I am Brody *Sends smile to everyone*
Where's the rest of the guys?
Parker: How the hell am I suppose to know?
*Rolls eyes* Lets just get started for real this time.
Question One.... How old is everyone?
Parker: You never ask someones age! Who would ask such a thing! But I am 27 and single ladies *Wiggles eyebrows*
Brody: 28.
Rowan: 27.
Leonardo: Same as everyone else 27.
Jessie: 25. Youngest of the group.
This question is for Jessie....Why did you go along with Byron's (your adoptive father) plan to train you into a killer?
Jessie: When someone takes you in off the streets and gives you a good life, you feel like you have to repay them. Byron took me in at 8 and it wasn't until I was 15 he started my training. Up until then he wasn't a bad father figure. Because I wanted his approval I did what he asked.
Leo: *Muttering* He's a d*ck.
Have any of heard of Jessie before you met her? Heard of the name Lea Mathews?
Leo: I heard rumors about someone named "Mathews" but I always thought it was a guy, not a girl. You can't be in our line of business without hearing things on the street.
Parker: I am still confused on Jessie being Lea but either way she is still a badass. She broke my nose.
Jessie: You grabbed me from behind, of course I'd break your nose.
Parker: At least Rowan got hurt too. So I feel better.
Rowan: It was a lucky shot.
Jessie: Ignore Rowan, he is a grumpy pants.
Rowan: Jessie *Cue more glaring*
Jessie: We don't get along, you'll get use to him.
Speaking of you guys not getting along....why is that?
Rowan: Beside the fact she is a know-it-all, a b*tch-
Jessie: No I am not! You are the one who hated me from the start. And if I remember right I've helped you a lot so you really should thank me.
Rowan: You see what I have to put up with?
Jessie: He secretly loves me.
Anyways....What is your favorite weapon?
Jessie: A gun is the quickest and easiest. But I can work with any.
Leo: Gun.
Parker: Knives!
Everyone: NO!
Parker: Why not?!
Brody: Parker, remember how you almost cut one of our heads off the last time you tried to throw a knife?
Parker: You moved!
Brody: I did not! You aimed at my head! No knives for you.
Leo: He is more useful with a gun.
Parker: Damn right I am.
Jessie: We aren't sure why he is still here.
Parker: *Flips Jessie the bird*
*Mumbles* Why did I think this was a good idea?
Rowan: You wrote us. You should have known this wouldn't go well.
Brody: Yeah this is kind of your fault.
Without me you wouldn't be here! Now let me ask the question!
Parker: Someone is in a mood.
Leo why did you decide to help Jessie with her father and let her stay at your place?
Leo: I may seem like a cruel person but when I heard that "Mathews" was in fact a girl and that a 10 million dollar bounty was on her head, I decided to help. Plus I needed her....expertise for a few things.
Jessie: And to gloat that you now had me.
Leo: *Grins* That too. I couldn't let some beautiful girl be killed.
Jessie: He thinks flattery gets him somewhere but it doesn't.
Leo: *Leans in close to Jessie, his face inches from hers* You don't like to be called beautiful? There are other names I can call you, sweetheart.
*While they whisper to one another, everyone sits there awkwardly*
Parker: So, when is anyone going to ask questions for me?
Rowan: No one wants to know anything about you.
Parker: Yes they do. The ladies love me. So ladies, I am single. I live alone *Winks* and I make a killer grill cheese.
Brody: You can't cook.
Parker: *Hissing* Shut it, they don't need to know that.
Rowan: Yes they do if they plan on being with you.
Parker: Like you are any better!
Rowan: I can cook.
Brody: Everyone knows Mrs. T cooks for everyone. So you both are lying.
Parker: I never lie!
Brody: *Sends Parker a look* Is that so?
Parker: Are you calling me a liar?
Brody: Well I ain't calling you a truther!
Dear lord, I have lost control of this interview. *Looks over and see Jessie and Leo in a heated argument. Brody and Parker are talking animately about something stupid. Rowan looks like he would rather be anywhere else but here (what else is new)*
Jessie: You motherf-
Leo: You asked!
Parker: I thought you were my brother!
Brody: Parker, sometimes I swear you are a girl.
Parker: I am not a girl! I am all man. Wanna see? *Stands up and starts to undo pants*
Guys? Guys? Guys! *Parker stops mid taking off his pants. Leo and Jessie finally look away. And Rowan stares blankly*
Can we just continue please? For my sake!
You all have tattoos. Have you ever thought of getting one Jessie? And what?
Jessie: I have one actually. I just got it recently.
Leo: You have one? Where?
Jessie: Like I will tell you or show you.
Rowan: Bet it some stupid ass butterfly or something.
Jessie: Just because you have one doesn't mean everyone else does.
Parker: Oh burnnn.
Jessie: But yes I have one and I will keep it a secret.
Your choice. Next question. What would you all rather do instead of being in the mafia?
Leo: I've never really thought too much about it.
Parker: I'd be a model.
Leo: *mutters* of course.
Brody: I'd like to be a teacher.
Jessie: Wow I didn't see that coming.
Brody: What? I like kids. *shrugs*
Rowan? Jessie how about you?
Jessie: I don't really know. I guess I'd like to just live a simple life, not killing people.
Rowan: I like my life.
Jessie: Great answer Rowan.
Rowan: Want me to say I'd rather be something stupid?
Jessie: You could just answer the stupid question and we can be done with this.
Rowan: I didn't even want to do this f*cking interview!
Leo: You two knock it off. We are almost done.
Thank you Leo. This next question is for you. What was your first impression of Jessie?
Leo: I first met Jessie in some alley way as she killed someone. Watching her I was impressed because the guy was twice her size. And when she turned her own gun on me and I saw how beautiful she was, and that is all I could think about. She may kill people but she has a good heart.
*Silence echoes* Okay....Leo, Rowan, Brody, Parker, when did you all meet?
Brody: I was probably 10 years old when I met Leo. My mom was a friend of his.
Parker: 18. My father worked for Leo's father and I took after him. Been here ever since.
Leo: My father found Rowan on the streets and took him in.
Rowan: *Just nods*
You have one wish, what do you use it for?
Parker: Oh I know!! I'd wish for a killer house and always have girls over. Imagine the fun you'd have!
Brody: Do you only think about girls?
Rowan: That's because he can't get girls.
Parker: I get more than you! At least I haven't pined after the same girl for years now.
Rowan: Shut it before I make you.
Parker: I ain't scared of you! Okay I may be slightly scared of you but I hold my ground.
Brody: You know Rowan can kick your ass right?
Parker: No he can't. I'm like a ninja.
Jessie: A terrible ninja.
Leo: Parker you have talent and good qualities-
Parker: Thank you man!
Leo: But you can't beat Rowan.
Parker: You guys always pick on me! I am amazing, you all are just jealous.
I really didn't think this interview through. They can't answer a simple question!
Jessie: We can go another round if you'd like Rowan.
Rowan: I don't want to embarrass you.
Parker: My bet is on Jessie.
Brody: I'm with you.
*Watches as Jessie and Rowan argue back and forth, almost getting out of their chairs* Yep I have lost control of this.
Parker: Jessie! Jessie! *chants*
Brody: Don't they both have guns?
Nope! I can't do this anymore. *stands up and yells which makes everyone stop*
You guys ruined this entire interview! No one is going to read this and I bet a few were excited. But noooo you had to be annoying as hell and not answer my questions!
Brody: I think she has lost it.
Rowan: Yeah, she is gone.
Jessie: It is your faults.
Parker: It wasn't my fault! I thought this whole interview was about me anyways.
Leo: Not everything is about you Parker *pinches nose*
You two *Points to Jessie and Leo*, get a freaking room already okay! Everyone knows you want to rip each others clothes off.
You *Points to Rowan* stop being so grumpy and moody! No girl likes a jackass, this also goes for Leo's sister! And stop being rude to Jessie.
Brody, you have actually been okay. Beside encouraging a fight to happen.
And Parker *Shakes head* You need help. Like maybe some professional help to understand why you are so....weird. And never take your pants off in front of people.
Jessie: I do not want to rip his clothes off!
Leo: Of course she wants to.
Rowan: What does Leo's sister have to do with this? I don't know what you are talking about *Looks in another direction*
Brody: Well....thanks, I guess.
Parker: Taking off pants is the solution for everything, apparently you need to try it. I will always be of assistance.
I can't believe I thought this would be a good idea. So while you all fight and try to kill one another I am going to leave. Enjoy killing each other! *Gets up and walks out of the room*
Leo: Well that went great.
Rowan: Great, now we can go.
Brody: Don't you guys feel bad we made her leave? We made our own author leave, that probably isn't good.
Jessie: Eh she'll be back. She has no life anyways.
Brody: That is kind of harsh.
Jessie: She made us so there must be something wrong with her.
Rowan: True.
Jessie: Woah is that the first time we have ever agreed on something?
Rowan: Don't get use to it.
Leo: Since we ruined this whole thing lets get going.
Parker: I got this guys. *Gets up and clears throat*
Parker: Thank you everyone for tuning in for this interview. Hope you enjoyed it and learned some more about our awesome selves. If you want to learn more about us and our story then go over and check it out. And if you don't, remember we are a group of killers so we will find you.
Leo: Parker.
Parker: What? I'm almost done!
Parker: Enjoy the rest of the amazing things set up for this book. And to all you single and/or taken ladies....call me! My number is (901) 574-034......
Rowan: Get your ass moving *grabs Parker and shoves him along*
Leo: Thanks for tuning in.
Jessie: Bye!
I hope you all enjoyed this little interview and I hope you got to learn a bit about these characters. If you like that type of Mafia story, then do as Parker suggested :D

Have a good day everyone!!!
