Hey guys! Just in time for the release of The Company of Darkness, we have some fun interview questions from Laveda for Cady and Ethan from The Company series. I’ll post Cady’s first and Ethan’s answers in a few days. Also, if you leave a question or two for them in the comments, they just might answer yours as well!

Cady~ First impression of Ethan.
When I first, first saw him or that night at Inferno? When I first, first saw him, I thought he was cute, but always in a hurry. I didn’t particularly take notice of him. I probably wouldn’t have noticed him in the club at all if the girls hadn’t pointed him out with their stupid game. I never thought he looked like a homeless guy though, he’s way too clean for that. My first impression when I first talked to him was that he didn’t like me much. Except he did call me pretty, even if he said I was distracting him and kind of scowly at the time. And he was so polite… No, thank you this and no, thank you that. I wasn’t even offering him anything, I just wanted to talk for a minute.

Cady~ Ethan’s your neighbor, right? So why was at the bar the first time you’re meeting?
Well, like I said, he always seemed in a hurry, his head down, not really the friendly type. I’d smiled at him in the laundry room before and nothing, so I just figured he wasn’t interested.

Cady~ It had to be a crazy scary experience for you, the night you were attacked by Claudio. What was going on in your head? I especially want to know what was going on inside your head when Ethan impaled a knife through Claudio’s hand through his own while speaking a foreign language. He also ends up killing him, were you not freaked out? Why were you not scared of Ethan?
It was a crazy scary night, for sure. First of all I was freaked out over Claudio’s hypnotism or whatever he tried with me that made me want to go home with him in the first place. I do not go home with strange men, I’m not that kind of a girl. One moment I’m trying to drag Penny away from him and the next I’m ready to pull him into the parking lot and tear his clothes off with my teeth. So when I finally snapped out of it and Ethan showed up, I was all kinds of glad to see him. It all happened kind of fast after that. The next thing you know Ethan’s stabbing the guy through both of their clasped hands while chanting something straight out of Sunday school – it was the most bizarre thing I’d ever seen until Claudio sliced his own neck with the tip of the knife. Ethan didn’t want him dead, I’m sure of it. Plus, I thought Ethan was a cop, you know. I couldn’t leave him bleeding in the parking lot after he’d just saved me from… whatever. I had to help him. It was the right thing to do.

Cady~ While in your dreams with Ash, he asks you to show him what you desire most, in a man. He sees flaws in your choice and asks why you would pick someone so flawed. You tell him, sometimes the beauty is in the flaws. Tell me, what flaws of Ethan’s are most beautiful to you?
If it was up to Ash he’d look like an underwear model, all airbrushed and perfect, but that’s not what I want.
I like a guy who looks like he’s lived a real life, not that pretty boy you see on TV or the movies. Just looking at Ethan, you can tell he’s seen things and done things, made decisions that haunt him and it’s more than the tattoos or the way his nose looks like it’s been broken before or anything about his appearance really. I love the way he looks at me. Like… he wants to touch me, but is almost afraid to, sometimes, like he’ll screw things up just by getting involved. There’s a core of sadness there, like a lost little boy who doesn’t think he deserves to be loved. It makes me want to give him a big hug and tell him everything will be okay. I know that’s nuts, right? Here he is, this big bad demon hunter and I’m the one who wants to do the comforting.

Cady~ Do you still have any feelings for Ash, even ones you don’t mean or want to have?
No, of course not! I could never have feelings for such a monster. What kind of a person would that make me? Just because I let him get close to me… I didn’t know what he was when he came to me in my dreams, that he was a murdering… I do not have feelings for Ash. Except maybe pity. No, not even that, he doesn’t deserve my pity, not after what he put me through. I couldn’t care less if he deluded himself into thinking he loves me, he doesn’t even know the meaning of the word. *sits and stares at nothing for a moment* I don’t have any feelings for Ash.

Cady~ Now that everything is over with Ash, what happens now? For you individually and together.
I finally got a real job instead of having to work at Spanky’s. It sucks having to get up so early, and paying taxes is pretty depressing, but it’s nice to work in a place where guys aren’t ogling my goodies. As for together, Ethan and I have to keep things on the down low. So my friends basically think I’m single again. You do not want to know what happened when they ambushed me with a blind date.

Favorite color?
Green.

How do you decompress?
I like to chill and listen to music, read or watch movies. I love movies! Just about any kind of movie, I don’t care how sucky it is.

Describe Ethan in three words.
Sweet, intense, mine.

What would your perfect future be?
I don’t know, that’s a good question for Gobi maybe. I try not to think too much about the future, you never know what will happen. I used to think my life would end up a certain way and when it didn’t… I think it’s better not to get too worked up over a dream future that might never happen. I like where I am now, even if it wasn’t what I would’ve wished for. Isn’t that all that matters?
