Giveaway & Character Interview.... We get personal w/Unknown Futures....

Attacked as a young adult, Jewel is left scarred and alone. She applies to the 1 Night Stand service, believing no one can see past her appearance to love her. But she doesn’t expect to be sent to a space station where her date could be any number of unusual alien species.

Flavia left everything behind to be one of five humans working for the Space Service space station. Extremely homesick, she is excited to learn she will be a guide to a woman from Earth visiting the station for a couple days. She is immediately drawn to the petite woman, seeing past her scars to her true inner beauty, stirring unforeseen desires.

Unfortunately, Jewel is there for a date which Flavia hasn’t been told about. Can she contain her lust and simply show her a good time? Or will she let her desire lead them into an unknown future?

******* Are you ready to hear what the characters have to say.....********

Interview with Flavia and Jewel from Unknown Futures

Thank you so much for having me here, today. I’d like to introduce my two guests, Jewel Barnaby and Flavia de Blaye. These two ladies met at an unusual place, but I can’t say much about that, as it’s classified Top Secret. Now, let’s get to know them a bit better.

Flavia, can you tell us about the first time you saw Jewel?

[Flavia squeezes Jewel’s hand]: I was giddy with excitement the first time I saw her. Not only
was she from Earth, but she was also close to my age. Oops, was I supposed to say that?
No worries. And Jewel, how did you react when you laid eyes on Flavia?

[Jewel makes eye contact for the first time, her unease evident]: I…I didn’t know what to think. I was in a foreign place, with people I didn’t know, and Jewel was there with a big smile and she hugged me. I’m not used to that because of my…my scars. People usually avoid me.

[Flavia tucks a strand of hair behind Jewel’s ear, then brushes a thumb across her lips.] You know that doesn’t happen anymore.

[Jewel shrugs but remains silent.]

Okay, Flavia, what drew you to Jewel?

[Flavia’s face brightens.] Besides the fact that she is the most beautiful woman I’ve ever met? Although she’s shy around new people until she realizes how they’ll react to her, Jewel is a very confident woman. She knows what she wants and is determined to reach her goals in whatever way she needs to. And she’s a great dancer.

And Jewel, what is your favorite part of Flavia?

[Jewel smiles, glancing back and forth between me and Flavia.]: Um, I guess I should keep my answers clean, right? I would have to say her heart. V (Flavia) has the biggest heart of anyone I know. She is friendly with everyone, no matter who they are, or what they’ve done, even if they expose themselves on the dance floor.

[Flavia laughs.]: Yes, there are days when I miss Gar. He always kept me laughing at work.

Now, one final question, ladies. Do you care to share your future plans?

[Flavia looks like she’s about to jump out of her seat]: We’re getting our own house. Frey and Carrie are coming back with their baby, so we need to move out. Yes, we’re still both in school, but we’re also working for the Space…um, the government, so together we can afford to buy a house together.

Jewel: Yes, it’s a dream come true for both of us. And we’ll have some place to come home to when we’re not at the sp…when we’re not travelling for work. [Giggles and looks toward the door.]

Thank you so much for being here today, ladies! I wish you all the very best in the future. Be sure to keep me posted.

Just to give you a taste of what it is about....

Excerpt:

She waved to get their attention, thankful her charges had arrived without incident. “Hi, I’m Flavia, but you can call me V. That’s what everyone here calls me.” Because no member of any other species on the station had been able to pronounce her name without it sounding vulgar in his or her language.
The Ginnunian stepped forward and surprised her by reaching out to shake her hand—not a custom for his people. “Hello, I’m Frey, and this is my wife, Carrie.”

She shook his hand and then his wife’s, trying to hold in her excitement at meeting someone from home.
Frey moved to the side, revealing the petite woman behind him. “And this is Jewel.”
V squealed. Unable to hide her exhilaration any longer, she wrapped her arms around Jewel. Not only was she from Earth, but she looked to be only a couple years younger than her. All the Terrans on-station were her parents’ age. For once, her unwavering loneliness would ebb, at least for a few days.
But her hug wasn’t returned, only met with a gasp. V stepped back. “I’m sorry, did I hurt you?”

Jewel shook her head, but wouldn’t make eye contact.
“I think she’s a little self-conscious about her scars,” Frey said.
V winced. Why did he have to mention them? Sure, she’d noticed, but she had friends with fins, feathers, and elephant ears. A few scars wouldn’t stop her from being social. Was that why she’d been asked to entertain Jewel during her stay?

    1. Thanks Jase! I must admit, none of my characters are the atypical perfect hero and heroine, but then, I'm not perfect either. :)
