Recently, Melissa from Weres Vamps Romance ran a character post for Ordained during her Author Month. I thought I'd give it a few days here as well. :) There's also an audio file if you'd like Valerie to read the post to you directly.


Hi. I'm Valerie and I have a dilemma. Given my current living situation, I don't really have anyone to talk to. So, I'm using this session to ask you: If you knew without a doubt your friend was gonna die and nothing could be done to change that, could you – would you – tell her?For the past fifteen years I've been the resident psychic for the Order. Not really by choice. I was originally recruited cause I bare the mark of the hunter, but when my advisor realized I was clairvoyant, I was removed from training and taken off the roster to become an active hunter – doomed to spend the rest of my life in this hellhole. I've been cursed with the gift of sight and I've seen the gut-twisting, horrific deaths of every hunter that left this school – hunters I was once friendly with. But years of experience has proven the visions are absolute. Once I see your death there is no escaping it. Not once was the outcome able to be changed – not even Emily, who did die but was brought back to life by the woman that is the subject of this dilemma: Abby. Abby is special - beyond special - there is no other like her. She's a hunter, a witch, a vampire, and unfortunately, ordained to battle the demonic pet of the Goddess Eris. Her life has bred her for this purpose and there is no avoiding it. When the time comes she'll be automatically transported to another dimension to face this demon. No spell can hide her, no weapons can pass through the portal and no one else can make this journey with her. She's on her own – and she will die. I know what you're gonna say. She's the best warrior this world has to offer, she's magically gifted and she's immortal. Let me assure you. If ever there was something that could destroy her immortality and wrap death's arms around her, it's a demon pet blessed by the Goddess it serves.I know I sound cold. Blame it on the Order for isolating me all these years. Blame it on the cursed visions that made me feel each of those deaths as if they were my own. Hell, blame it on me if you'd like. Whatever it was, I've learned not to feel too much over the years. But this woman has become my friend. And I'd love nothing more than to change her fate. But like I said, once I see your death, your death is absolute. So now I'm asking you: If you knew without a doubt your friend was gonna die and nothing could be done to change that, could you – would you – tell her?
