Since the first book in my Seven Seals series was released
back in January 2013, many readers have asked me the same question. Who and
what exactly are the Scion warriors in your books. Today, I thought I’d try to
answer that question for you. J
Here’s the short answer:
The Scion are an elite band of immortal warriors, each of
whom were chosen by Divinity herself to serve as she commands.
But wait, you may say. That doesn’t really explain where they came from. Very true. So here’s the longer answer;
There are currently seven Scion warriors: Xander, Kagan,
Chago, Wyck, Luther, Sloane, and Barron. They were all human males who died in
feats of great valor during some of the greatest battles in earth’s history.
Because of their sacrifice and their bravery, Divinity granted each of them
immortality and a chance to right the wrongs of their mortal lives. And now
protect their very own Seal too, of course. ;)
The Scion have existed for millennia and each warrior has
their own ‘specialty’.
Xander is their commanding officer and trains each new Scion
upon their calling. Kagan is Xander’s second in command and also handles
logistics. Chago is the resident combat expert and Wyck is the Scion’s
technology guru. Luther is an expert profiler, Sloane is a doctor and part-time
pickpocket, and Barron, the newest member of the team, is a jack-of-all trades.

Book Description:
Love conquers all… but can it stop the Apocalypse?
Mira Herald is having the worst life ever. Not only is she plagued by horrific nightmares starring the Devil himself, she’s now the target of a power-hungry, rogue minion, freshly sprung from Hell and bent on her destruction. To complicate matters further, she’s acquired a stalker. One who insists he’s a divine warrior sent for her protection because she houses an ancient relic with the power to unleash Armageddon. Last time Mira checked, she wasn’t insane. Still, all this celestial mayhem is enough to drive a girl crazy.
Kagan is a member of the Scion, an elite team of immortal warriors selected by Divinity to aid mankind and save the world. After a century alone, Kagan is summoned for a new mission. He’s eager to begin. Eager until he’s informed his mission consists of protecting a woman with no clue to the power she wields. Plus, his briefing fails to prepare him for his new target’s cosmic-sized attitude problem. As Divinity’s sworn servant, he’s required to fulfill his duty. His oath, however, does not require him to be enthusiastic about his new assignment or warm-and-fuzzy toward his new compatriot. He plans a wham-bam rescue and a quick return to solitude.
The rogue minion attacks—with the backing of a mysterious organization—and all Hades erupts, putting a fast end to any whirlwind escapes. Accustomed to staunch independence, Mira’s survival now requires full cooperation and an unwavering belief in Kagan. The battle-hardened warrior is also forced to chose: between duty and desire. Amidst the turmoil, Kagan and Mira’s undeniable passion draws them closer to each other and down a path neither expected but both yearn for, more than they ever knew.
Will love save the day? The world’s fate depends on the answer.

She finished the first draft of what was to become Seal of Destiny in one month and decided to pursue a full-time writing career in January of 2012. Life has now been a rollercoaster, crash course in pursuing your dreams.

Nice insight, Traci, but I notice you don't mention that each of them is astonishingly handsome...
ReplyDelete;)
LOL! I have to leave a little mystery, eh? :)
DeleteTraci, you hooked me with Sloane. A doctor AND a pickpocket? Now that's a hero I want to meet! May you have many sales!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Deborah! They've each got their own little quirks... Sloane's bio is scheduled for my April 30th post. :)
DeleteAnd thanks so much for having me on your beautiful site today, Danica! So much fun! :)
DeleteYeah, the pickpocket does sound like fun--though the other Scions don't sound like anything too shabby. Such an intriguing concept--enjoyed finding out a little more!
