Q/A

Q: What's up with Tony, why does he want power?

Tony: In order to secure my place among  the big players of the world.   In life, people are divided into two major groups: predators and preys. I have no intention of being part of the preys anymore.

Q: Did Tony plan the ending?

Tony: To some extent, yes. Lucas would have probably carried out his plan without me, I just helped him move it along and ensured that Max got killed, not Angelo.

Q: Is Tony going to kill Annie?

Tony: No, I have no plans of doing so. Believe it or not, I actually did care about Max. If there was any othee route I could have taken to achieving my goal, I would have

Q: Why does Aimee have to be so damn savage with Angelo?

Angelo: You know, that's an excellent quest-

Aimee: Shut up! I wouldn't need to be 'savage' with you if you learn to tone down on the sass !

Angelo: I am not sass-

Q: Are Angelo and Aimee ever going to date?

Angelo: If I ever consider lowering my standards-

Aimee: Say one more word and leans in and whispers in his ear

Angelo: smirks and zips his lips

Aimee: To answer your question, maybe. We're just going with the flow for now. But we wouldn't be against it.

Q: Is Angelo ever going to know about Tony's role in everything?

Tony: Most likely, no. I have no intention of letting him find out. Hesitates, then adds Besides, kid has been through enough. It's better he doesn't know.

Q: What will happen if Tony and Angelo's parents meet in the afterlife?

Tony: Uh well... I'll cross that bridge if I get there! Jeez, why so many questions directed at me?

Q: Author, do you hope to get this book published someday?

Author (Me): Most definitely ! In the mean time I'm trying to better my writing skills and build up a fan base, so if any of you can take a moment to recommend this book to someone, it'll really mean a lot!

Fun facts

1. Aimee is a few months older than Angelo (When she and Angelo were paired together for the play, she had already been 18, while Angelo was 17).

2. This story was originally not meant to have romance in it (This book is based on a short story I wrote when I was in eleventh grade. That story still had traumatic underlying in it, only that the two main characters were pre-teens. However, shortly before I wrote this book I read Romeo and Juliet, so I was inspired to push their relationship past platonic).

3. Machiavelli, Aimee's dad, was originally meant to be the villain of the story (While I always intended for Lucas to be evil, he was meant to be more of a side-villain. However when I deeply thought about it, I realized that the explanation for why and how Machiavelli would turn out to be the villain was really complex and would probably just confuse y'all a lot, so I scrapped that idea. Instead, I replaced him with Tony, and gave Lucas more of a major role).

4. I never intended for Angelo to die in this story - I was planning to kill off Aimee at first (That was meant to compliment the Machiavelli storyline. However once that was scrapped, I decided against killing her off).
