ADDICTED

Love...is one hell of a drug...


I didn't even bother to stop the growl that erupted from my lips as Adele slammed the phone down once more. These humans, most that have known her, her entire life were now so ready and willing to turn on her.

They called and taunted her because of the town's latest tragedy.

I sat next to Adele comforting her when she got the phone call. Jason had been accused of murdering the neighborhood tramps, horribly rotten luck if you asked me.

"He didn't do it Izzy, he didn't I know he couldn't have." She whispered as she leaned against me.

"I know darling, I know. I looked into his mind, he isn't a killer, definitely isn't a murderer." I said although my treacherous mind thought of my younger brother Dermot. I remembered pleading the same for him once….

"Dermot Brigant; you are aware why you are here."

I stood, shielded by Dillon, but I saw his head fall, his blonde hair messy from all the times I would mess it up by running my fingers through it.

"Yes."

"How do you plead?" The fairy king Niall demanded.

I watched him watched my younger brother tremble under the stares he was getting.

"This is madness!" I snapped. "Complete and utter madness. Dermot is innocent, he's not a killer he's not a murderer! Release him at once!"

Dillon held me back and I fought against his hold trying to get to him. He was my younger brother, my baby brother, I knew him better than he knew his self…

"How do you plead?" The fairy king continued ignoring my outburst focusing on the young man before him.

I watched as Dermot lifted his head, I paused, he wasn't trembling from fear or cry tears….he was laughing.

He tossed a sadistic smirk towards the king before facing the royal court.

We locked eyes. And tears filled my eyes at the sight; his blue eyes, the blue eyes that we shared were no longer recognizable. His eyes were wild and hard not, soft and playful as we continued to gaze at each other before he announced the one word that sealed his fate and before I knew it...my own.

"Guilty."

"I know I asked you to look after Sookie because of the gift ya'll share but Jason-" Adele said snapping me back to the present.

"Say no more. You're my fried Adele of course I'll help clear your grandson's name." I said to her seriously.

With him being the spitting image of Dermot, it would be hard for me to be around him, but that definitely wouldn't deter me for getting to know him, I hated the fact that even though his face brought out anger, hurt and betrayal to the forefront of my mind I still felt drawn to protect him.

I wouldn't let something like this continue to happen to him, even if he did do it.

"Thank you." She said hugging me and I smiled.

I listened to Sookie and Adele as the spoke about the situation involving Jason.

Adele warned Sookie that if the real murder wasn't caught soon that they would make Jason take the blame, even though he was innocent.

"How am I supposed to help him?" Sookie asked and I could picture clearly the dumbstruck look on her face from my spot in the living room.

I rolled my eyes was she really being this naïve?

"Use the gift god gave you. Listen in on people, keep your ears open you're bound to hear something." Adele told her.

"It's got nothing to do with my ears." Was her only reply.

"Whatever you use to listen, use it." She said sternly shocking Sookie if the gasp she let out was anything to go by. Adele spoke again only softer. "He is your brother Sookie."

"Ok." Sookie finally relented.

"Good girl." Adele whispered before joining me once more in the living room a tray of tea and cookies in her hand.

I watched as Sookie struggled with reading peoples mind. I rolled my eyes honestly it doesn't take a genius to know of a telepath to see what these people are thinking. It's written all over their faces.

"Sookie if you don't stop now you won't make it through the night without a nasty headache." I chirped walking past her with a tray of food in my hand.

She glared at me. "I have to listen-"

"I know why your listening, all I'm saying is Jason's predicament and Dawn's death, is all these people are gonna be thinking about. You don't need to read their minds to see that."

She paused looking at me thoughtfully considering my words. "I suppose your right."

"Of course I'm right." I said with a smile before disappearing to wait my tables.

I popped up next to Sookie as she stopped Jason from walking further.

"Jason you look me in the eye and you tell me the truth. Did you kill dawn?"

I shook my head at her as the look of confusion hurt and betrayal flashed across his face at those four little words.

My eyes openly raked over him taking in every feature that was Jason, cataloguing the similarities and differences he shared with Dermot before stopping at the bulge in his jeans.

I gave a quick sniff taking in his scent before smirking when his eyes caught mine, a blush covering his features as his eyes watched mine wonder slowly down to his bulging jeans once more.

Well, looks like someone over did the vampire blood.

I shook my head once again painfully reminded of my little brother; he too would do such ignorant things like that, always seeming to land his self in trouble.

I watched from the corner of my eye as the vampire came in. Everyone in the bar grew quite.

I looked over to see Sookie's section was full; it was either sit in my section or Arlene's…

I looked at him daring him to sit in my section. He quickly cast his eyes away from my own before siting in one of Arlene booths.

I smirked happily before finishing up my rounds. So far today had been a good day.

I was on my way towards the back to check on Jason, he had disappeared towards the fridge when Sookie grabbed my arm.

"Come outside with me so that I can convince Bill to take us to that vampire bar in Shreveport that everyone keeps talking about."

"No."

"What why?"

"One. Because I don't need to be there. Two because you're still not my favorite telepath and you putting your hands on me and trying to tell me what you're doing is not helping your cause." I snapped.

She instantly let go.

"Now I told Adele that I would help. But I will help on my own terms, I do things my own way. I'll see you later." I said moving to check on Jason, he was my priority right now, If I didn't get to him soon, he would be in a world full of hurt…

"How do you know he'll say yes?" Sookie asked me unsure.

I smirked. "Because I know."

I turned on my heels my ponytail swinging behind me as I walked towards Jason.

I debated how I would approach him before throwing caution to the wind and just entering the fridge.

"Don't turn around-"

I didn't bother listening to him. I sighed I saw him sitting on the ground with his pants around his ankles and a ribeye steak covering his privates. Despite the cold temperature Jason's body hand broken out in a sweat.

"I said don't look at me." He snapped, angry about literally being caught with his pants down.

I raised an eyebrow at him. "What are you doing Jason?"

"Nothing." He said quickly before averting his eyes. His mind was a typhoon. Anger being find like this, anger at it being me his grandmother's mysterious smoking hot friend, his words not mine.

"You are a horrible liar." I said unyielding as he pleaded me with his eyes to leave him alone. He was secretly hoping that someone else would find him first. Well it was too late, I was here now.

"….I think I might have OD'd…." He whispered.

"On what?" I asked even though I already knew.

"…..V." He said quickly slightly flinching as if waiting for a reprimand or physical outburst that I just wasn't going to give.

"And where did you get this V?" I asked although a quick dip in his mind told me it was he flamboyant cook.

Silence. He turned his face away from me, he didn't trust me.

I felt a pang in my stomach and hurt flashed across my eyes but it was understandable, he didn't know me. Just because I felt drawn to him doesn't mean he automatically felt the same.

"Jason…." I said and his eyes locked with my own. "It's ok, you can trust me, you can tell me. I can keep a secret."

He stared at me for a whole two minutes. His eyes, Dermot eyes critically studying my facial expression, after another moment he whispered "…..Lafayette."

I nodded while keeping my face neutral, I didn't need him to think I was judge him, even if the thought of vampire juice running through his veins made me want to beat him senseless.

"Let me see it." I said after a moment.

His entire body tensed. "What?"

"I want to help you Jason, for me to know what measures I need to take I need to see how bad the erection is." I placed my warm hand over his cold one. "It's alright love; I just want to see…"

Slowly but surely he let me remove the steak that covered his erection.

My eyebrows frowned at the monstrous size of his erection. "Oh Jason…"

He whimpered at my tone. "This is bad isn't it?"

"We need to leave at once."

He nodded.

"A hospital-" I started but Jason's arm snaked round my own quicker than I had ever thought stopping me in my track.

"No no, no please no hospitals." The desperation in his voice had me quickly nodding my head in agreement.

I placed my hand on his cheek. "Ok love calm down, no hospitals."

I helped him stand while slipping his pants over the erection. I walked over to Sam telling him I was leaving before helping Jason out the door, paying no mind at the eyes that followed us.

After Jason told me where he lived, and after I helped him into his house, I began to draw a bath for him.

"What are you doing?" Jason asked from the door way ask he watched me through curious eyes.

"I'm helping you." I said without taking my eyes from the sudsy water, I had put an assortment of different herbs in the hot water that would help relax his mind and body. I stopped the water turning to look at him. "Strip and get into the tub."

He frowned, a blush covering his cheeks as I stared at him.

"What?" I asked curiously.

"Could you um…close your eyes." He asked bashfully his face further turning scarlet as if I just didn't see his penis 20 minutes ago…

I raised an eyebrow my lip twitching in amusement, before I simply stood and exited the bathroom.

"When you are in the tub and you've finished washing away the days sweat and grime, call for me." I didn't wait for his response before I closed the door.

I searched his house looking for the things that I needed. It was a good thing he lived alone and not with Adele, he would have had some serious explaining to do.

When Jason called for me I returned to find him laid back and resting in the tub.

He smiled when he saw me. "I don't know what you put in here, but damn, I feel good."

I smiled. "A little this and a little that, I'm glad that your body is relaxed. You should sleep, I'm sure you'll feel better when you awaken." I needed him to be relaxed and in a peaceful state of mind for what I had to do next.

I sat on the side of the tub watching him as he fought with his drowsiness, before finally his eyes shut.

I took the knife that I had found in his kitchen, before cutting my hand and slipping it into the hot water.

The water turned blood red in seconds as I slipped my hand over his erection. My hand was the equivalent of a block of ice on a frying pan.

I watched as Jason stirred, flinching and hissing at my touch but remained in his sleep. As I began to stroke him my blood mixed with the water began to pulse, before glowing.

I focused on my task, soft strokes, I needed him to cum; the faster he'd cum the faster he would be healed.

When he ejaculated onto my hand the red seemed to seep into his pores and finally his eyes shot open.

I looked down at his now erection-less penis before flashing him a smile.

"You healed me." He said with shock and happiness.

"I did."

"I…my penis don't look like an eggplant about to explode anymore…I…thank you."

I smiled before standing. "It's fine Jason, just please, do not consume anymore V. Vampire blood is full of impurities and toxins. It isn't the slightest bit healthy for human bodies."

"Wait are you just….are you just going to leave?" he said asked his smile leaving his face in exchange for a frown.

"I'm afraid so. I have other matters to attend too right now." I said with a sigh running my hand through my hair. Just the thought of spending the rest of my night in a vampire bar made me want to sneer.

"I-ok." He looked and at the tub water playing with the bubbles that still remained; he looked every bit the petulant child that was told to go to bed early. It was quite an endearing sight.

I smiled walking back over towards him. "How about I stop by tomorrow morning, yes?"

He nodded seemingly in a better mood. "Ok."

I leaned down my lips briefly touching his. "Good, sleep well tonight Der-Jason." I said quickly catching my slip before quickly leaving his home, leaving a wide eyed and red faced Jason in the tub.

I mentally chastised myself on the drive back to towards Adele. He was not Dermot, he was not my brother, I shouldn't and cannot act so familiar with him.

After I got dressed I speed over the Shreveport.

I didn't know if the duo had been waiting on me or if they had just arrived, and to be honest couldn't find the energy to care. My slip up with Jason further souring my mood.

I strutted up to them my lip curling as Bill inhaled deeply, his eyes locking on my own.

"Oh my god, Isadora you look….amazing."

"I always do." I said to her while still glaring at Bill.

"Aren't you um, a little bit too dressed up though?" She asked with a frown as her eyes took me in. I suppose she was right by human standards. My blood red floor length gown was bound to attract more attention than necessary, if the color didn't attract on its own the thigh high split and lace that surrounded my upper body would. But it couldn't be helped, I wasn't some ill-bred mongrel and I refused to dress like it either.

My eyes flashed to her face before flickering over her outfit choice.

"Was I expected to take a page from you fashion book, wear a childishly causal floral dress with a little headband?"

"i…" she was so taken aback by my rude response that she just stared at me wide eyed.

"Are you ready?" I said boredly, irritation practically oozing from my poses.

"Yes."

"Let's get this over with." I said walking next to Sookie.

We walked in and I rolled my eyes at what I saw. Leather, latex, whips and chains.

Typical, tasteless, basic and boring. I groaned already bored and ready to leave.

"Bill haven't seen you in a while." A blond vampire said walking over to us. She was very beautiful but then again most vampires were.

"I'm mainstreaming." Bill said to her with a dryness that conveyed that he didn't particularly enjoy her company.

"Good for you." Her tone was just as dry as his before asking the real important question. "Who's the doll?"

I turned my head to see the she devil staring at me. I smirked of course she meant me; I was just as beautiful if not more than her. I would have been offended if she meant Sookie.

"Pam this is Sookie." Bill said in which earned him two glares.

"No not her, the doll." She said looking at Sookie with distaste before locking eyes with me.

"My name is irrelevant." I said to her before my eyes locked on a vampire girl dancing. Many human's eyes seemed glued to her as well.

"Where are you going?" Sookie asked grabbing onto my arm like it was a lifeline, Pam and Bill both looking at me as I had begun to walk away from the group.

"I'm going to be bored if I say with you all night. When I get bored I get a little mischievous. I don't do bored and you won't like what I do if I get mischievous."

"It's not safe-" Sookie started but my cold eyes and shark like smirk stopped her in her tracks.

"But it will be entertaining." With that I snatched my arm from hers walking through the crowd.

I stood watching the two vampires debating whose glory I should steal. The male one looked me up and down with hunger in his eyes before motioning me with his finger.

"Oh sugar you have no idea what you just asked for…" I smirked before stepping up on his platform and dancing along with him.

Sex. Blood. Rage. Lust. Hunger. Passion.

I tossed my head back grinding on the vampire moving faster and faster.

I felt eyes zero in on us.

I smirked. Yes, ravish me with your eyes. Take me by force in any way that you wish it, give me all of that lust and passion.

I sighed as I could feel their energy soaking into me.

"Can I get to know you better?" The male vampire I was dancing with asked with lust filled eyes. I had long ago danced his female counterpart off her own platform…

I leaned my face up towards him inched from his lips before answering. "No..."

I smirked when he stopped shocked that I refused him and I took that time to walk over to Sookie and Bill.

"Look at you, you're glowing." Sookie said with a smile before frowning. "But you dancing with those vampires was dangerous, as a matter of fact, I'm surprised you could even keep up with them."

I waved her off. "Please, make no mistake. Between me and them, I'm definitely more dangerous."

I saw Bill narrow his eyes and didn't bother to filter my mouth. "Problem Compton?"

"Not at all." His voice seemed strained.

"Good." I said nodding my head towards him before looking at Sookie who was watching our interaction. "Did you find what you need to know?"

"Yes and no…" She said with a sigh.

"In which that means you were unsuccessful then. What fabulous news." I said dryly, my thoughts wandering towards Jason and his future safety.

"Whose that?" I heard Sookie ask. I didn't even bother to look to see what she was talking about.

"So you noticed him did you?" The tiniest hints of jealousy and disappointment in his voice. I barely resisted scoffing, so what had caught her interest was another male…no doubt vampire.

"No it's not like that I just-" Sookie tried to explain but just couldn't.

"Everyone does. That's Eric, he's the oldest thing in this bar." Bill said with a huff, further proving my point. Honestly what was with this girl and vampires?

Although, I snickered to myself thinking how untrue bill's statement probably was, I watched as a man put his hand on this so called Eric's leg. Eric kicked the man off and he ended up cutting his forehead.

I sneered with open disgust. "What a weak willed idiot."

Sookie and Bill looked at me in shock, while I just shrugged.

"I need a drink."

The bartender's fangs slide down as he took in my scent. "And how may I help you gorgeous."

I couldn't help the smirk that made its way to my lips, even though he was a vampire, he had good taste. And yes, if it wasn't obvious by now, I am a vain creature, and I held no shame in it.

"I need something strong, the strongest you have." I watched as he pulled out Kentucky bourbon whiskey and a pretty little glass and smiled. "No nice of glass needed, I'll just be taking the bottle."

He raised an eyebrow before sliding me a bottle of whiskey. You sure you can handle it, it'll burn the lining right off your stomach.

I slapped a hundred dollar Bill on the bar. "What's a little pain to endure for the price of ultimate pleasure….thanks by the way."

I was contently drinking my bottle while dancing with some humans who were under the illusion that I was a vampire when Sookie grabbed me.

I sighed before winking at the girl I had been dancing on.

"Call me." She said desperation leaking from her voice.

"I'll think about it darling." I said before walking away with Sookie.

"I didn't know you battle for the other team." Sookie said with surprise clearly in her voice.

I snickered. "You don't know anything about me…"I looked over at the blonde male vampire and his blonde female counterpart before landing once more on Sookie. "I bat for any team that interests me."

"Now," I said crossing my arms over my chest. "Why did you pull me over here, disrupting my fun?"

"Izzy-"

"Pardon?" I hissed at her making her flinch.

"Isadora, we've been summoned." I looked at her my mind steamrolling through hers.

I scoff. "So it seems."

"Bill Compton it has been awhile." The blonde male I remained bill calling Eric said emotionlessly.

"Yes well, I've been-" Bill started before Eric cut him off.

"Mainstreaming. I heard." Eric looked over both of us his eyes landing on my bored face. "I see that it's going well for you."

"Yes of course, sorry, Eric these are my friends-" Bill was once again cut off by Eric.

"Sookie Stackhouse, and miss-" Eric paused because he had yet to learn my name. I smirked taking pride in that.

"How do you know my name?" Sookie asked with a frown.

"I never forget a pretty face you're in my vault." She said staring at Sookie making her uncomfortable.

"But" Eric said pulling all eyes towards him. "Who might this lovely yet mysterious flower be?" Eric asked his eyes yet to leave my now once more emotionless face.

I stared at him cocking my head to the side studying him. His body language and his facial expressions, they all seemed vaguely familiar.

"My name is Isadora." I said after a moment of silence, studying him as he did me.

"Just Isadora?" Pam asked drawing my eyes.

"Isadora is all that you need to know, don't tell me it's not enough for your vault?" I said with heavy sarcasm while raising an eyebrow up at Pam.

She smirked in return.

Sookie grabbed my hand and gave it a squeeze. I rolled my eyes and brought the bottle of whiskey towards my lips.

"It's nice to meet you Eric. Isn't it Isadora?" She said asked me.

"Uh yeah, it sure is." I said sarcastically looking back at the dance floor with a pout.

"Well aren't you sweet…" Eric said drawing my eyes towards him as he stared at me.

"Not on your life." I bite out causing Sookie to once again squeeze my hand.

Eric smirked still staring at me; I sneered and looked back towards the dance floor.

Eric and Pam exchanged words in old Swedish to have privacy and I couldn't stop the eye roll and the sigh that escaped my lips…

"Some of us actually speak other languages, so no need to be shy, you can speak English so everyone can understand." I said in old Swedish surprising the both.

"You speak Swedish?" Pam asked impressed.

"Among other things." I said boredly.

"Miss Stackhouse I understand you've been asking questions about some of my customers." Eric said finally.

"Yes I have."

"If you have anything to ask you shall ask it of me." Eric said seriously.

"Alright then." She said pulling two pictures from her purse. "You recognize either one of these girls."

He scoffed pointing to Maudette "This one offered herself to me."

I scoffed. Of course the little death slut did, she offered herself to anything, so I've been told.

"But I found her much too pathetic for my attentions." Eric finished before his eyes rolled over me.

He looked at the picture of Dawn. "Now this one however, this one I have tasted."

"I remember them both." Pam said.

"On account of the vault?" Sookie and I said at the same time.

"Never had either of them though, they weren't really my type." Pam's eyes also seemed to linger on me.

I raised the bottle to my lips to find it empty. I saw a waitress and placed the bottle on her tray.

"Be a good little lamb and dispose of that for me, ok." I said with a smirked before turning back to face them.

Eric was watching me amusement in his eyes, even as the girl's angry thoughts filtered towards me.

"Sookie, remember what I said earlier…" I said to her as I crossed my arm growing impatient.

"Right well, that's all your time I need to take." Sookie said taking the two picture's from Eric.

"I've not finished with you yet. Please sit." Eric said seriously as he saw we were about to leave.

There were only two chairs. Sookie sat in one while Bill sat in the other. Sookie tried to scoot over but there wasn't room for the both of us.

"You are more than welcome to sit in my lap, Miss Isadora." Eric said to me, a dark look in his eyes.

I smirked. "And here all those people talk, about how vampires don't have a sense of humor."

I walked over to Sookie before lifting her up and placing her in my lap, surprising not only the vampires but Sookie as well.

"So Bill, are you quite attached to your friends…" Eric asked him.

"They are mine." Bill said immediately.

I shot him a death glare, while Sookie chirped up. "Yes we are his, both of us."

Eric eyed me not fully convinced as I stayed silent.

"Well what a pity, for me." He said finally, looking at Bill. "We have catching up to do you and I..."

I sighed looking over the dance floor my mind naturally slipping into every human in the room, with my boredom.

I raised an eyebrow at a man in all black and a Silveridge Lounge pinole hat. I licked my lips at his thoughts.

Well, this may just be the entertainment I craved.

Sookie, you might want to let your vampire boy toy know that man over there is an undercover cop bringing in backup and that a vampire named Taren is feeding on that weak man from earlier.

Sookie's head snapped at me with a frown. "How did you-"

There's more to me that meets the eye I said while flashing her a mischievous smile.

"Will you ever tell me?" Sookie asked with a frown.

"Maybe…" I said with a smirk.

"Damnit Isadora, this isn't a game someone innocent could get hurt." She snapped glaring at me.

My eyes darkened at her tone of voice. "A lot of innocent people could get hurt, but I don't care about them."

I wrapped an arm around her waist in what any predator could tell was a possessive manner while my other hand brought her chin down towards my face. She needed to see how serious I was. She needed to learn her place. "Contrary to your belief Sookie this is a game, this is all one big game to me, and you are merely just another piece on my board do not ever think that you will be anything more."

Her head snapped towards bill hurt by my insensitive words when I leased my hold on her face, even as him and to two blonde vampires stared at us with confusion and shock on their features.

"We have to get out of here." Sookie snapped at Bill still angry at me as I leaned back casually in my seat.

"Sookie..." Bill said with disappointment in his tone.

"Eric the cops are coming, there's going to be a raid." Sookie pleaded with the blonde, after seeing bill obviously wasn't budging.

"Tell me you're not an undercover cop." He said narrowing his eyes on her.

"I'm not, but that man in the hat is." Sookie said pointing to the guy on the dance floor.

"Even if you're right, we do nothing illegal here." Eric said waving off her warning.

Sookie looked at me panic in her eyes, Eric wasn't budging.

I scoffed. "Oh yeah? Then tell me blondie, how's it going to look to the cops when they find little Taren feeding from the weak willed human from earlier in the ladies room."

"How do you know this?" Pam asked suspiciously while Eric looked between Sookie and I with a frown.

I smirked. "It's all a part of my charm darling."

I stood up seconds before the police burst in.

"Police."

I felt hands picking me up and holding me against them as we all ran out of the bar.
