Eric Northman is a stoic tall blonde vampire with a lustful desire of blood and flesh. The term flesh to a vampire is not in the literal physical sense, but in the sensual sense of human sexual desire. Although Eric is not human-he is a creature of the undead. He lusts and hungers after human women like the feeling of hunger pangs that occur from days after fasting. This evening Eric sits self-assuredly in his throne of grace inside of a vampire bar in Miami called BloodLust. The popular Miami hotspot is inundated with scantily clad women wearing tight halter tops with no bras and skirts that barely cover the rounds of their buttocks.
The bar comes to halt when he walks in. His name is Dexter Morgan. Dexter, like Eric, also shares a lust for blood. However, his lust is consumed in an antithetic type of way. Dexter is attracted to withdrawing the blood of serial killers. He has an innate attraction to slaughtering the executioner.
BloodLust for two years now have been under the watchful eye of the Miami Metro Police Dept. Several homicides that have occurred under their investigations, have led to victims that have been frequent patrons of BloodLust at some time or another. Eric owns the bar with his muse Pam. They left Bon Temps, Louisiana three years ago after Bill Compton slaughtered Sookie Stackhouse in a freak accident.
One night Bill was captured by a couple of two-bit redneck drainers who were looking to sell his blood. Drainers are people who drain the blood of vampires to sell illegally on the black market. The blood is referred to as "V". Bill was drained nearly to the point of death when Sookie came to his rescue. What Sookie didn't know was that Bill had been deprived of blood for several days and his true death would either succumb to starvation or his current anemic state. As soon as his opportunity for blood appeared right before his chestnut brown eyes he didn't hesitate to drink from Sookie.
He engulfed Sookie's blood and couldn't stop. He drank so much from Sookie that she died right there in the middle of woods where Bill was attacked. Eric Northman loved Sookie and planned to marry her one day. The moment he was informed of her tragic death, he left Bon Temps and moved with Pam to Miami.
Dexter Morgan appears with his eyes arched and a sly grin on his face. His hair is honey wheat brown and he wears an army green colored Henley shirt that exposes his well-defined muscular build underneath. As the music stops and the crowd engages their attention only on Dexter, Eric stays seated on his throne and keeps an eye on every breath Dexter takes. Pam all the while keeps her eye on Eric, ready to protect him at a moment's notice. Dexter reaches into his pocket and takes out a hypodermic needle that is filled with animal tranquilizer.
The moment Dexter points the syringe up in the air, the melodic sound effect of extracting fangs are heard inside of the nightclub. Eric's fangs initiate the charge, and all other vampires follow. It is quite clear from this brief exchange of menacing glances that this scene is not going to have a blissful outcome. There will be blood and the question remains will it be Eric or Dexter's?
