Once Ricky and I had spoke more on the idea of Eric not allowing me to see who sent him a picture I told her that everything was fine but I would call her quickly if I needed. Grabbing the remote I sat on the bed turning it on. Right away bad news was on the television. Young girls were getting kidnapped with no trace to where they went to. My heart ached for them since that would be such a scary thing for me as a girl to go thru.
Before I knew it Eric was standing in front of the TV staring at me. I rose a brow as I slowly looked up into his face. He took off his shirt showing his muscular chest and he had such a serious face on. I started to feel tiny as he took a step toward me and pushed me down with one finger. My breathing deepened as he slowly slid my panties off from under my blue dress. His cold hands rubbed my thighs as he started to crawl upon the bed over.
"You. Will. Always. Be. Just. Mine" he growled and I noticed his fangs were sticking out. Something was not right I never heard him say those words so firmly before. Quickly I tried to push him off but their was no budge he kept growling and I knew it was annoying him that I was now trying to scramble away from him. He pinned my arms above my head and kicked my now closed legs with him knee to open them. I whimpered a bit as I started to feel trapped. Eric leaned toward my ear and snarled.
"If you ever…and I mean EVER my Katharina make me look like a fool because of John I swear upon everything I will make you rue the day you met him" his words were not just a threat but I knew they were a fact. I had stepped over the line with having John and Eric in a public place but I didn't think nothing of it. Something inside of me started to feel angry, once anger filled my body I roughly moved my ear away from his mouth. A glare was upon my face.
"What your whore…Sookie won't I be seeing her this weekend" I snapped. Eric released my wrist that was now hurting and slowly nodded.
"Yes but you are mine Katharina and I swear I have nothing with her anymore" he stood up after he pecked my head. I closed my eyes trying to hide back the tears I just couldn't allow my weakness to show I nodded my head slowly.
Once I reopened my eyes I noticed he had his black shirt back on "Where are you going" I asked as I rubbed my tender wrist. Eric didn't look at me as he walked toward the door.
"Do not worry" he then sped out the room. I felt my jaw drop, how could he say such a thing to me. After he just made a big deal about me making him look like a fool. With him not telling me anything I felt like the biggest joke their was. I quickly grabbed my phone and texted Ricky.

Once she arrived at the house I had quickly changed my clothes, my outfit was black leather pants with a black corset top. I had the six inch boots with the silver thin heel. A smirk was upon her face since she was wearing the same exact thing.
"We think alike don't we" she winked as she tossed me her keys. I nodded "We sure do."
Once we were inside her car I noticed Eric did leave and what would make it easy he took the red Porsche so it would be very easy to spot. Once I started the engine Ricky laughed a bit and my blue eyes fell upon her.
Her red lipstick was perfect and went well with her dark hair she had a grin upon her lips "Lets get this bastard" her voice was smooth. Quickly I backed up and headed to the house I had a feeling he was at. Bon Temps was not far especially when one did not follow the speed limit or stop at stop signs. Quickly we came across Bon Temps and that is where Ricky pointed at Merlotte the Bar and Grill.
"Someone may know where we are going…they have to know a Sookie and once I pick up her scent we can find out if he is at her house" Ricky quickly got out the car. I followed with the same actions but once I was out the car I walked toward the Bar first. My eyes were glued upon the door as I pushed it open. I noticed a cop sitting at the bar so slowly I walked up to him.
He was handsome with dirty blonde hair and I could tell under his uniform he was muscular. I leaned against the counter and looked straight at him.
"I was wondering if a good looking cop like you could help a little oh girl like me out" I asked in a sexual way as I bit my bottom lip. The guy looked at me, well more like my chest as he slowly nodded.
"I sure can…the name is Jason, Jason Stackhouse" his eyes landed on my face as I stood their quiet for a while. He was the whore's sister. If she looked half as good as her brother in person I knew I would not stand a chance against her.
"Your Sookie's brother" I allowed a fake smile go upon my face.
Jason nodded.
"Well that is so funny…it's been a while since I been over" I acted like I lost the words to where she lived just to play it off.
"Oh the grave yard…yea she don't live far from it" he had such a child like smile on his face that I had to stop myself from laughing. I gave him a small nod before I released a huff.
"Sorry Jason but I must go, my friend is waiting…she just got here" I lied as I went to walk. A certain voice caught me off guard.
It was a raspy voice that spoke to me "She got here with you" said the man behind the bar. "What did you need help with, I mean you sure asked for help but never even told Jason what you wanted?" I turned to look at a man with light brown hair and blue eyes, his facial hair was a little scruffy and he wore a plaid shirt with blue jeans.
"I…I don't know what your talking about" I tried to play innocently.
Jason looked at the man then back at me "Sam is right, what did you need help with" he seemed a bit more curious now. I slowly started to regret coming here, I could not get caught and I need to hurry and catch Eric. Well try and catch him. I opened my mouth to speak but closed it back since I had no idea what to say.
"Sorry guys but I need to take her, we are suppose to be in Shreveport but we are lost" Ricky lied as she smiled at Sam and Jason. Both guys nodded but Sam seemed a bit more tensed. Jason spoke with Ricky for a while as I stood outside near her car. I noticed a dog that was white and had tan colors on him walking toward me.
"Hey buddy" I whispered as I got on my knees to pet him. The dog sat down just staring at me. "I bet your lost….but I can't go find your owners now…I have to go find my husband" I said to the dog feeling stupid since no dog could really understand me.
Ricky walked out and looked at me and then the dog "Seriously Kat we can't bring a dog" she nearly chuckled. I couldn't help but look at the dog that seemed a little odd, but he just would not leave us alone.
"You can't take it Katherine"
"Ricky I can't just leave it here" I looked at the dog then at my friend.
Ricky huffed "Kat seriously you are going to steal a dog" she made a face.
"It's not stealing if the dog wants to come….and he does" quickly the stray dog jumped into Ricky's car before I closed the door. Ricky rolled her eyes as she drove toward Sookie's house. For some strange reason I noticed the dog was acting strange very tensed as we stopped at the whore's house.
But, the dog was last on my mind because their in front of me was a car. Not just any car but Eric's red Porsche .
"Well guess I was right" I whispered to Ricky trying to hold back the tears. Ricky was shaking her head and I knew she was pissed "Well you know I always thought that car needed a new job" a smirk was now upon my lips from Ricky's comment.
"I agree" I opened my door and grabbed the keys right from Ricky's hand. Walking toward Eric's car I dug the key on the side of his perfectly painted red Porsche. I felt a little better but I grabbed the bat Ricky had in her hand from her and started to smash the glass in, the back, side and front was now glass free. I was able to unlock the door and quickly dug the key into his leather seats.
"Idiot" I whispered as I started to break everything inside I couldn't take it, I was right outside of the house he swore he would never enter. Once everything on his little car was smashed, scratched or broken I stepped back and smiled at my work. He broke my heart so I will break his little car.
The stray dog looked like he was shocked but didn't move, the noise that caught my attention was the front door. I never got to see Eric's face because Ricky quickly threw me into her car. As we quickly drove off with stray dog since he jumped in I started to feel a little better until I heard Ricky scream and felt an impact.
My heart was racing and their stood a man, he wore a long coat that was black making him hard to see, but slowly he walked toward the car. Ricky's car must have hit him or he grabbed the car because it had stopped right in front of him. She couldn't get the car to start, while the dog kept growling.
"Hurry up" I screamed as I noticed he was now on the hood grinning at us, his fangs were fully out. Before Ricky could respond the man broke the glass and making it shatter all over us. We screamed as he gripped both of our necks.
"Now we are collecting human women….I'm sure you watch the news" out he chuckled darkly. I felt my lungs trying to grasp for more air but it was hopeless. I blacked out.

As my eyes slowly opened my whole body felt sore but mostly my arms, their was a tingle sensation in them. I looked up and realized my hands were tied together and strapped to a bar. My feet were tied together and my mouth was tapped. I felt tears fall from eyes making the headache even worst.
I was not alone, their were many other women same way I was but clothes were ripped off and they were more like knocked out. Their bodies had blue bruises on them. Looking around for Rickey I noticed she was on the ground crying. She had a collar on her neck that was attached to a chain. The chain was hooked to the stone wall.
Trying to get her attention I stopped when I realized their was blood in-between her legs. I felt sick as the door swung open and their stood the vampire who captured us. He was tall and built. Bald and non attractive.
"See you are finally up, the master had so much fun with your little friend I bet he will also enjoy you" he chuckled darkly as he took a deadly step toward me. Who was the master, I knew a good bit of vampires but I never seen him before.
"Timothy stop" a strong British accent came from the back of the room.
"Yes Master" the man named Timothy said as he took steps back away from. The British man walked closer to me and his cold hand came to my mouth as he slowly pulled the tape off. His hair was a rusty color with green eyes, his jaw line was strong and reminded me of an old warrior that people learn about in history.
"The name is Victor,….I sure know who you are Katherine" the back of his hand touched my cheek softly as I allowed a whimper to escape my lips.
He stepped closer as he undone my arms, since I was so weak my body nearly hit the floor but he grabbed me in time. His face was next to mine as he whispered.
"Katherine, you were suppose to be mine. Russell was going to give you to me but no, he changed his mind. Gave you to Eric Northman because Russell thought it was better" his voice was so soft that I had to nearly strain to hear him. My mouth was to dry to even speak that I just allowed myself to sob.
It was not Victor who spoke nor was it Timothy, the Mississippi drawl was easy to figure out who it belonged to.
"Don't worry child….I am here" Russell's drawl filled the room. "Also Victor do not fill my daughter's head with stuff she does not need to know" he snapped. I felt another set of cold hands grab hold of me, knowing it was my father I allowed my body to lean up against him.
My voice cracked as I spoke "What about Ricky…I'm not leaving her."
Russell looked at my dear friend then back at me, rolling his eyes "She is now Victor's play thing…you belong to Eric even though he was very clear you have been nothing but a dishonorable wife" his eyes narrowed. I was speechless as I saw Ricky cry louder as Victor took a few steps toward her.
"Father please don't….I don't want to leave…I can't leave her" I cried out as I was dragged away by my father. Russell threw me over his shoulder as I screamed for my dear friend.
"RICKY I WILL FIND YOU….PLEASE NO I DON'T WANT TO LEAVE HER….PLEASE" tears came down my face as my hands reached to grip a wall but I couldn't find anything. The last thing I heard from that house was Ricky's screams. I cried non stop as Russell flew up in the air.
Once I was placed down I stood on the steps to Eric's house. Falling to my knees I cried harder, how could my father be so heartless and allow a girl to just be kept.
"You have pissed your husband off that he is the one who called me because a naked man said you and a wolf girl was kidnapped by a vampire. Lucky your husband works for Victor and knew right away where you would be….but the fact he was in a meeting with Bill and Sookie with your little childish act by breaking his car he was trying to calm Sookie down. She was scared you would go after her, maybe even kill her. Not only have you dishonored your husband but me, you reflect back on me. On how I raised you" Russell's voice was firm as his eyes looked nearly deadly. I didn't care what he was saying. I just wanted my friend Ricky back.
"Why did you leave her" I asked as the tears ran back to my eyes.
Before Russell could speak I felt Eric's hand pulling me up by my arm "Because she is a bad influence on you" he growled in my ear. "Don't worry Victor will keep her as a pet, she is a wolf…a dog…nothing more" he added. I felt my heart sink to my stomach.
Before I could ask my father the question Russell looked into my eyes and shook his head. "You cannot divorce him. I forbid it" before I can ask why he flew off. I knew I would not see him until the weekend with the AVL and all the royals.
I tried to push Eric away but he did not budge "What arrangement do you two have" I asked firmly.
Eric chuckled as he tilted his head a bit "As long as I am married to you then Russell knows I will not kill him for killing my family. I am to do what I want with you and how I want just for Russell to feel safe when he is home in his little house. Victor was bound to you and his agreement was to guard Russell but the fact I have a much older vampire Victor would not stand a chance. So you and I are bound by blood…..so thank your coward father you are my property" he then walked in the house leaving me alone.
I quickly followed and glared "I am not your property" I snapped. Eric chuckled.
"Yes, to me you are nothing but someone I own…you carry my last name even though you sure like to destroy stuff that belongs to me….a reason why Ricky is not here with you…blame yourself."
His words hit me like a ton of bricks 'blame myself' I bit my bottom lip and tears filled my eyes.
"So what because my father killed your family you feel like I can be the punching bag…but why would you even want to marry me because of what he did" I held back my tears. Eric looked deep into my eyes as his hand came and touched my cheek.
"Because your nothing like him, yes at first I wanted to own you….because of your looks but that night when you ran away. I found you sitting down all alone…do you remember that talk we had, I knew you were a delicate flower afraid to be hurt but wanting to be free. Free from him, your father" he slowly removed his hand and pulled me into a hug.
I didn't want a hug but I couldn't help but cry into his chest. He rubbed my back in a soothing way as he continued to speak. "I did not sleep with Sookie, just warning her about the vampires. I should have told you but I was just so mad at you that I didn't….but please do not make me shame at the party. When we give our speech remember I love you and you love me…we are a happy couple…I do love you even though I own you"
At this moment I was not happy I barley was able to focus on what Eric was even saying I just nodded my head. "It's almost morning" I whispered as I kept my tears from falling. The word 'Own' was harsh to hear.
As Eric and I lay in the bed he fell into a dead sleep but I was to depressed to even think about sleeping. I got out of bed and went to the phone and called a taxi. I needed to see John, I needed him to help me get Ricky back.
