Little by little, Trent is letting Chloe get a glimpse of his life, starting with where he lives. He mentions his long-dead brother, and Chloe sees a portrait of his mother. It was fun for me as the author to explore how Trent felt about his home and the stuff--or lack of stuff--contained within. Anyone else pick up on that room he mentioned, the one they avoid? Any guesses as to which room he's referring to and why? What did you like the most about this chapter?  Let's discuss CURSED...
Trent's in trouble! Chloe isn't stupid, and she's learning things he'd rather her not know--at least, not yet. But she's now found Sean, which means Trent is running out of time to tell her the truth. But instead of doing that, he plays dumb. He's so desperate just to spend time with her, talking to her, getting to know her that he's willing to pretend he's something / someone he's not. He'll end up regretting this...
What would you have done? Would you have fessed up right then and there? Or would you have clung to the need to be human for a little while longer? Let's discuss CURSED... This chapter was so easy to write, mostly because I had fun showing the interplay between Trent and Jax, but also because Trent is spiraling deeper into his feelings for Chloe. He wants her but knows he really can't have her, and so he's conflicted about what to do.
When I was originally writing Eternal Curse, I knew what was happening "behind the scenes," things Chloe didn't know, so to now be able to explore those things... It's been great! Speaking of, any guesses who the vampire is that Trent noticed and is now trying to find? Let's discuss CURSED... I honestly didn't know where this chapter was going when I first started writing it, and so Trent and Jax eavesdropping on Chloe, Abby, Marc, and Rachel was a bit of a surprise to me. Of course, Jax finds the humor in the entire situation and can't help but harass Trent. LOL.
Trent, however, is on edge. He has no idea what Marc is up to or what sort of danger Chloe might be in, but now there's also a vampire in town. Any guesses who it might be? Let's discuss CURSED... Things are certainly getting tense, huh? Trent wants to come clean to Chloe, and Jax simply wants to kill her. Sean, of course, is trying to keep the peace. But this is clearly more than a simple difference of opinion. Whose side are you on?
Let's discuss CURSED... Things are getting fun! I love how they both ask so many questions, and for anyone whose read the entire series, you know this is sort of their "thing." Do you like it? Or does it drive you nuts at times like it does Trent and Chloe? If you could ask either of them -- or anyone else in the book -- any question, what would it be?
Let's discuss CURSED... All right, what do we think? Writing Trent's thoughts about Chloe taking the blame and full punishment for being late to class was fun to write. He really is in awe over her selfless kindness. Has anyone ever done something really nice for you just because?
Things with Jax are heating up, too. He's not very happy with how Trent is behaving with Chloe. Let's discuss CURSED... Anyone else completely obsessed with Trent's side of the story? Or is it just me? Admittedly, I'm probably a little bit biased.
So far, this has been my favorite chapter to write because I got to show the dynamics between Trent and his father, Sean, along with some teasing between Trent and Jax. In fact, that little exchange between those two when Trent is leaving and Jax is calling him out on "stalking" Chloe was a blast to write. Did anyone else laugh a little at that part?
