Character Spotlight~ Welcome Kai Tenzin and Author Shelly Holt


Please give a warm welcome to Kai Tenzin from TASTING FIRE by Shelly Holt today as we sit down and see what makes him tick.
  
Q - So tell us about yourself.  What got you in the  cross hairs for your author?

Kai – Truth be told, I think she has a thing for Asian guys. 

Q – What was it that drew you to your mate?

Kai –  My people, the Pari of the Himalayas, evolved from a merging of snow leopard and human DNA over 20,000 years ago.  We were about to be revealed to humanity due to the discovery of prehistoric Pari DNA found in bone fragments at the Denisova Cave in Siberia.  As the leader of The Shan Trust (the organization I founded to help the Pari people,) I originally hired Rae to find a way to hide our rather tell-tale DNA from modern science.  It was the first time a non Pari woman ever found out about us.  The fact that a beautiful, intelligent woman knew all of my deepest secrets and she wouldn't involuntarily turn back into a snow leopard was it for me.  I'm not embarrassed to admit I've been with a few human and Pari women in my time.  With Rae though, it was like truly being naked in front of a woman for the first time.  

Q – A little naughty fun, where was the wildest place you seduced your partner?  

Kai - Well... Rae's going to kill for telling, but we had a pretty wild time in the back seat of our rented car on a back road in Russia once.  We got caught too!


Q – If your partner wants to seduce you, what's one sure fire trick he/she can play? 

Kai – Feed me borscht.  I know that sounds crazy, but borscht is a major aphrodisiac for those with a shape-shifter gene.  I recently read an article on the internet that proves certain chemical compounds in it really effect us shape-shifters and those with an inactive shape-shifting gene as well.  In fact did you know the ancient Romans considered it a powerful aphrodisiac as well? 


Q – No, I didn't Kai.  Does it work on humans? 

Kai – Unfortunately not.  Shelly Holt, the author told me she tried it once, but apparently she doesn't have any shape-shifter DNA.  Of course, buying it from a jar like she did from the supermarket didn't help.  You got to have it fresh.  I have a recipe for it if your interested. 

Q – Boxers, brief or Commando on a man? 

Kai – I like boxer briefs actually.  Transforming into my Shan form (leopard form) can be a little hard on the boys downstairs, I like to give them all the support I can:) 

Q – What is the one place on your partner's body that you know will drive them wild in and out of the bed? 

Kai –  Don't tell Rae I told you, but the back of her neck, I bit her there once and held her down the way I would with a female Pari in leopard form.  I actually wasn't sure I could bend enough, but apparently the old vertebra are still pretty flexible.  If I were human I would have needed some serious chiropractic treatments after that night! 

Q – What was the most embarrassing thing your author did to you in TASTING FIRE? 

Kai -   I really didn't appreciate falling asleep on Rae before the deed was done on the first night we shared a bedroom together.  

Q - Anything else you would like to add? 

Kai -  If your readers are interested in snow leopard conservation, there are many sites on-line to learn about how to help us save one of the most endangered exotic leopards on the planet.   Thank you for having me on today.

About the Author:

My name is Shelly Holt and I live in the middle of the harsh and unforgiving Mojave desert. I write my stories looking out of a window that shows sweeping desert views. Outside is a barren and severe landscape, yet inside my head lives a world filled with exotic shape-shifters come to life, pulled from the pages of myth and legend, ready to entice and seduce any reader brave enough to take them on.











Teaser for Tasting Fire by Shelly Holt

Shape-shifters have always walked the earth. Shrouded in myth and folklore, hiding in the shadows, watching and waiting. Advances in modern science are now about to reveal them to the world. Kai Tenzin is the self appointed leader of the Pari people. He and his kind evolved from the most reclusive predators on earth, The Asian Snow Leopard. They live and hunt in the most fearsome and rugged terrain known to man, the Himalayas. As a young man, Kai left his small village where the mountain touches the heavens, determined to do anything to protect his people. When he is forced to enlist the aid of the beautiful American scientist Dr. Rae Hales, the last thing he expects to find is a woman who will ensnare his heart and endanger them all. Their action-packed adventure will take them around the world to discover the truth behind the legends and reveal the future of humanity.

EXCERPT

    Kai had a sudden extraordinarily vivid recollection of Rae's last shower and at least for the moment, missing Russian researchers were the last thing on his mind.  He quietly walked up behind her using the same technique to stalk her as he used at her motel in Florida.  As she was still bent over he walked up behind her and salaciously pressed his burgeoning erection against her.  Rae immediately stood up and Kai grounded himself into her, grabbing her waist with both hands and pushing her into the dresser.  Rae started to breathe in short ragged gasps and felt herself become wet instantly.  Kai immediately started to unbuckle Rae's jeans and slid them down her thighs.  She kicked off her shoes and he slipped the jeans over her feet.  Kai then yanked her panties down to her ankles and removed them.   He still kept her facing the dresser.  Rae shivered violently as he purred into her ear that he was going to take her from behind like a Pari.   Kai aggressively ripped her blouse right off her back and tossed it aside.  From behind he easily unclasped her bra and tossed it carelessly on the floor.  Rae was now completely naked and being forced to bend over the dresser.  He reached for her breasts from behind and began to gently knead her tingling nubs until they both ached with desire.  Kai then licked three of his fingers and slipped them inside her.  He pleasured her digitally for several minutes.  The Pari was grinding himself fully clothed against her firm cheeks.  Rae eventually heard a loud moan slip out of the back of her throat of its own volition and she suddenly screamed as she exploded.  Kai backed off her for a minute to disrobe, but ordered her to stay bent over the dresser.  The highly aroused shape-shifter growled in a deep voice  “I'm not done with you yet!”  Kai ripped his own clothes off and then he started to bite her lightly on the back of her shoulders.  The sharp nips gave her pleasure beyond belief.  He then pushed her long blond hair aside and suddenly bit her hard on the back of her neck.  Kai didn't draw blood, but he wasn't far from it.  A human man would not have had the flexibility of the spine to accomplish what sexually charged shape-shifter was about to do.
