Day Seven:
They looked to see Saeed in the doorway. He shifted his muscled bulk from one foot to the other. “We have extended our protection to this human.”
Joseff jerked away and roared, “Maybe you have, but I haven’t! What is wrong with all of you? You had no love for Claudius, but she killed your Mistress! And her master killed your brother! How can you forget that?”
“I haven’t forgotten,” Saeed answered with no emotion.
“Then how can you shelter her? Am I the only sane one left?” A strange smile twisted across his face. “The stupid human is the only one who makes any damned sense around here! At least she knows to hate us as much as we hate her!”
“You are the only one who hates,” Saeed said quietly. “And it will consume you.”

Three lucky winners will each get one large vinyl sticker. Stick them on your door, your laptop, or your secret lab.
Good luck and thanks for stopping by! Be sure to check back tomorrow for another fun giveaway, and if you haven’t yet, be sure to check out the other Ten Days of Giveaways blogs!
Who do you think really IS the only sane vampire? (I’ll share the most interesting answers(s) on facebook.)
Marta Kotzke
/ May 28, 2012They’ve been carrying around emotional baggage for centuries. So… none of them!
Joleene Naylor
/ June 1, 2012That would be my answer, too
alicia
/ May 28, 2012Haven’t found one yet. Some are just more damaged than others..lol
skymartin86@gmail.com
Joleene Naylor
/ June 1, 2012LOL! I haven’t found one either!
sharonstogner
/ May 28, 2012are you talking about your vamps or out of all the vamps? out of yours I would say Verchiel. He is a smart ass, but seems to have his head on straight. I have to agree with Marta and say none of them really… but let me think on it a while…
Joleene Naylor
/ June 1, 2012LOL! Yeah, I don’t think Verchiel is sane, either
amy owen
/ May 28, 2012None really, although some SEEM saner than others. Ex. Saeed seems pretty sane to me, in that fact that he follows his conscience, without being unnecessarily cruel. Even down to killing his maker, they were taken as slaves after all, so that murder seems pretty sane to me. Jamie also seems pretty sane. He’s “just doing his job,” but doesn’t seem to get off of unnecessary cruelty either (he did the mind trick on K while Jorick was knocked out, for example). But they all seem pretty damaged. blueridgephotos@yahoo.com
Joleene Naylor
/ June 1, 2012Yeah, i think they could all use a good psychiatrist! But Saeed does seem to be working on inner peace, at least
Crystal Young
/ May 28, 2012I would say none of them but Vercheil maybe he is so calm and Loren he hasn’t been a Vampire as long. crystaley73 at yahoo dot com
Joleene Naylor
/ June 1, 2012You know, I hadn’t thought about Loren! He might not be as crazy as the others!
jennifer gruenberg
/ May 28, 2012I would say Loren or Micah are the sanest ones if the bunch. I like Verchiel bet he is definitely crazy maybe not insane but crazy nonetheless.
jennifer gruenberg
/ May 28, 2012Sorry forgot to put my email syndiasia@yahoo.com
Joleene Naylor
/ June 1, 2012Ha ha! Micah is quite proud to have made the sane list
DM Yates
/ May 28, 2012Love the sign. lol. And Joseff is an idiot who hasn’t yet gotten what he deserves.
Joleene Naylor
/ June 1, 2012I know! Hopefully he will someday! >:)
Juli Hoffman
/ May 28, 2012Love the sticker, Jo!
Saeed seems to have his head screwed on straight, but I don’t think any of your vampires are entirely sane.

Joleene Naylor
/ June 1, 2012heh-heh, yeah I don’t think so, either!
Shaylynn Gruenberg
/ May 31, 2012I haven’t really read the books but I don’t believe there could be a sane vampire.Guess I wont believe it till I see it(or read it anyways)
jennifer gruenberg
/ May 31, 2012You’re right we are all a little insane.
Joleene Naylor
/ June 1, 2012I think you’re right, Shaylynn – they’re all nuts!
Shaylynn Gruenberg
/ May 31, 2012sorry forgot the email

thejissilly
/ May 31, 2012I worry, because if it takes making sense for vampires to listen, I might be in danger.
Joleene Naylor
/ June 1, 2012Oh yeah, you are in trouble…
