Pam's Covert Ops

Chapter 10

Kai's POV

Standing outside of Erica's room. I had no choice but to leave her. The news about Nani hit me like a ton of bricks. I couldn't decide if I believed her or not. I guess the only thing I could do was go home and find out what's really going on.

On our flight back to the islands Oni questioned me about Nani and if it was true but I couldn't answer him. I didn't know. I didn't want to talk to anybody. I felt like if I opened my mouth I would just lose it. I was just so messed up over everything that happened this past month.

When I got to Nani's house I found her curled up in a ball crying. I felt bad for hurting her so much. I should have just stayed away from her. But I was so hurt and thought that Erica and me was over for good. Now I guess this time we are now that Nani going have my baby. I pulled her into my lap and started to soothe her.

"Oh god, Kai! I thought I would never see you again." She sobbed

"How did this happen Nani, we was safe I thought." I said she pushed me away

"What you mean? Not all protection is safe! What you trying for say Kai?" she yelled at me.

"Shhh… Notting, no worry I no run away from my responsibilities." I replied

"Your responsibilities? Get out Kai!" ugh da fucking hormonal pregnant woman I did what she asked.

The next few months I came to accept the fact that I was going be one father. Nani was growing and she looked so happy, I tried to be happy myself. I always wanted to be one father. It just hurt too much at the same time that Erica wasn't the one pregnant with my child. I wished so much that it was her. But I did right by Nani and helped her through the ups and downs she was having. I pretty much stayed away from my uncle and Oni's questions about everything and they respected my decision and left me alone about it. They knew I was still hurting over Erica.

Pam's POV

"Auntie, you wanted to speak to me?" Elly asked me.

I had been back for about six months now. Elly has been very kind to me from the start. I even allowed her to call me that ridiculous nickname. It was cute. Erica not so much. She would talk to me sometimes. I noticed that it wasn't just me though. She was distant to everyone. I knew that she took the death of her mother hard, about as hard as Eric had. Yet, I didn't think that was all there was to it. If I am correct there was only one person that did know.

"Elly, you know that I made many mistakes in my life correct. The biggest wrong was to your parents." She nodded "That said, I gave my word to fulfill all the wishes your mother asked of me. The most important one was that you and your sister live a full and happy life."

"Yes Auntie. I read the letters I know what was asked of you." she answered looking confused.

"It seems that I cannot do my duty without your help." I waited for her next question

"My help, what is that you need?" there it was as I expected. She was always so willing to help those who needed her. A dreadful trait she inherited from her mother.

"I need to know the truth about your sister." I told her sternly

"Wh..what is it that you ...I ..um I don't know wha" she stuttered

"Cut the shit little angel. I know that you know the real reason behind your sister's coldness. She is tough as nails, but your mother did not raise ice cubes. Both of you have hearts and your sister's has taken a vacation. It is time for it to come back. I know that you know, so spill." I told her with more force this to me.

She stared at me for a minute. Looking as if she was debating on whether she was going to give up the information I required. Then she squared her shoulders and spoke.

"I feel as though telling you would be a betrayal to my sister. That being said she does need help so I will tell you on one condition. If you do not agree it makes no difference to me. You can't do anything to me without repercussions you are not willing to except. So if you do not agree, I'll leave."

Now it was my turn to stare. Sookie was right she was an animal wrapped in a sweet southern belle disguise. She knew she held all the chips. Little shit. Fine it can't be that bad.

"Fine. What will you have me do?" I said in my bored tone hoping she will think this condition of hers was unimportant.

"You must solve this puzzle for me without talking to Erica about it. She would never forgive either of us for interfering in her life."

"Ooh I love puzzles. It is my specialty along with relationship advice." I said and she giggled at me. I don't know why she laughed it was true.

"Yes you proved that when you inadvertently fixed my parents marriage all those years ago." she laughed

"Well, what are the pieces and I will complete the puzzle." I said ignoring her last statement.

She then spent the next couple of hours telling me the story of Ikaika and Erica, all of the ups and downs, then the most recent things that have happened after the funeral. I had no idea it went that deep. Elly was right all the pieces were here they just weren't fitting together.

Well looks like I'm going to Hawaii...

Uncle's POV

One night in court we were alerted to a visiting vampire. I was not that surprised to see it was someone from the Northman clan. I often worry about the condition to my nephew's mental and emotional state since his return from Louisiana. He has become a void, completely withdrawn in on his self. Things have been much worse from the last time things were off between him and Erica. I've tried many times to pull him out of this state but said he is a man now and needs to work out things in his own way.

When she was shown in to the throne room the Queen began to feel excited.

"Pamela Ravenscroft, pleasure to see you again." The Queen purred.

"Your Highness." She greets and smiles seductively to my Queen.

"This is my Second and Child Cary Tagowa." I nod in to her.

"You are the Uncle of Ikaika Kaumana?" She questions me.

"Yes… Is he the reason for your visit?"

"Not quite. I am here on behalf of my niece, Erica Northman."

"Ah yes, condolences on Mrs. Northman, she was a great woman."

"She was, yes thank you." she replies.

After checking in with the Queen she leaves, but one of our guards tells me she is waiting for me on the lanai to speak privately. The Queen dismisses me and I go to Ms. Ravenscroft. I was not surprised to see Northman's child even before her punishment she was his best investigator.

She questions me on my nephews well being and tells me of Erica's. I agree with her assessment of the young Northman. The one I've come to know and love certainly does not contend with the one she is describing to me. I tell her what I know of the situation. I tell her that she has freedom to investigate on the islands. I also tell her that I will not be assisting her as I do not want my nephew to think that I have been deceitful to him. I hope her plan works. I want him and Erica to find true happiness.

Oni's POV

Six months past since we got back from Louisiana. After the funeral there was a huge change in Ikaika. He was more pissed off all da time and never talked to anyone but Nani. He even pushed his Uncle away and that was real surprising. True to Kai he took hold of his responsibilities and did what he had too. Nani was happy she finally got Kai where she wanted him. I couldn't help but to feel weird about all this. I heard some stuff about Nani and Ekolu… but they was together off and on through the years so could have been from that time. Plus Ekolu get one big mouth and you couldn't trust anything that came out of it.

One night I was just about to get in my car to go to the Palace when I hear Nani arguing with Ekolu. I snuck up behind them to get one better listen.

"…. Where you been? I've been calling and calling. Why you not answering da phone?" Ekolu asks

"I stay with Kai, you know that? I no need to answer your calls." She snaps at him.

"Nani… no act like that." He pauses "Is the baby mine?" he finishes. What?

"NO! Of course not! It's Kai's… and you better not try and cause trouble between him and me." she hissed at Ekolu. What the fuck was that? I wondered.

"Just leave me alone, Ekolu. We were over a long time ago. I love Kai and this IS his baby." She says as she storms off. Ekolu started to go after her but instead got in his truck and left. I wanted so bad to find out what the hell was going on. I wanted to catch Nani in one lie. So I started to go after Nani.

"So you must be Keoni… Elly's plaything… Hmm, interesting." She said but didn't sound like she was interested at all. But damn this Vamp standing in front of me was the hottest one I've seen yet!

"Yeah… and who you stay? We could play a little bit if you like." I asked this goddess in front of me. If she know Elly this must be da Aunty she never know about.

"From what I understand you think Elly is a tiger. If that is true I would eat you alive. Not to mention I don't think she would have anything to do with you if you fuck her AUNT." Yup I was right da Aunty. She never even give me time fo' talk.

"Now that your hormones are in check... they are in check correct?"

"Whoa... calm down Aunty I was just playing. I figured who you was. I was just playing." I don't even know why I asked her to calm down she didn't look mad at all she just had an edge to her voice that sounded like she wanted to drain me dry. She ignored my response then said.

"You will tell me what you know about this Nani bitch I have heard so much about" she said getting right down to it.

"I don't know what to tell you only that she weird. We all thought her psycho obsession was passed, but now I don't know. She's been acting weird sometimes like she holding too tight to Kai. I just heard her talking to her Ex-boyfriend. Something he said didn't make sense. I was just about to go talk to her and ask her what da fuck is going on, but you stopped me." I rambled on.

"No, no, silly boy. You let Auntie Pam take care of this. Run along and tell no one of our little talk, including Ikaika. Is that understood... and Keoni... don't tell Elly I know your her tigah tamer." She said and she was gone. I was confused so I just made my way to the Palace to work.

PAM'S POV

This puzzle I was thrown into was shaping up very nicely. There were rumors about this Nani girl flying all over the place. Something about a coconut being wireless. I have no idea what the girls on this island were talking about. This Nani person wasn't even liked. The girls I spoke to didn't even have to be glamoured into telling me anything. I should have glamoured them into taking English courses. The way they spoke was atrocious and I speak over 1,000 different languages.

Ikaika's uncle gave me a couple of names to check out so I was starting there. After speaking to her so called friends I decided to search out Keoni. Elly's 'good time friend' as Cary called him.

When I got to his house he was stalking the neighbors. I walked up on him before he did something stupid. Really Elly this one...I guess he looked ok. He actually tried to proposition me. I wasn't surprised. I had heard all he did at the graduation party was stare at Amelia's breast. At least he had taste.

He told me about Nani. I guess it was time to go directly to the horse.

I watched as the little man left. His neighbor came rushing out of her house and ran right into me. She was about to fall when I caught her. Hmm... she was pregnant.

"Well hello there. My name is Pam." I said

"Kainani. What are you doing outside my parents house." she spat. Well the rumor about her being a bitch was true. I wonder what else is.

"Oh you know a little of this a little of that."

"Well move I need to get home to my fiancé. He works at the palace, for his uncle and the Queen and should be home any minute." she told me. Oh name drop all you want honey. Until your head is between the Queens legs you do not matter. Which reminds me I need to hurry this along.

"You must be engaged to Ikaika then. Funny I thought he was with that Northman girl. That's the only woman's name I've ever heard him say." she was turning red with anger.

This was too much fun so I continued "I thought you were with, oh what was his name." I tapped my finger on my chin pretending to think of the name "Ekolu that's it. Isn't that his child?"

I was going off the rumors but her face drained of color. "You be careful Kainani, don't want to stress too much. I read somewhere that it's not good for the baby" I told her then left at vamp speed.

I didn't go far. I just hid in the shadows to see what she would do. I learned a long time ago. Give a person enough rope and they'll hang themselves. This was much more fun then glamouring.

"FUCK! FUCK… FUCK… FUCK…" she said panicking

"Shit! I gotta call Ekolu." She turned around good, it let me get a closer listen.

"Ekolu! Who da hell you been talking too? I just left your ass! Why is some crazy Vampire bitch asking if da baby is yours?"

"I don't know! Why is it mine?" I could hear the man Ekolu… on the other line.

"What the fuck do you think? I already told you was Kai's" she said through clenched teeth.

"Oh, well could be mine right? We was together when he was up with his chick." Bingo!

"She's not his fucking chick, I am and I told you never to talk about that. It was a mistake… this. Is. Kai's. Baby!" she said punctuating every word in her last statement. I got all I needed. This bitch was toast.

Nani POV

"FUCK! FUCK… FUCK… FUCK…" I was shiting bricks… who da fuck was that bitch and how she know so much about me.

"Shit! I gotta call Ekolu." I turned around waiting for da dumbass to pick up.

"Ekolu! Who da hell you been talking too? I just left your ass! Why is some crazy Vampire bitch asking if da baby is yours?" I screamed at him.

"I don't know! Why is it mine?" He yelled back at me.

"What the fuck do you think? I already told you was Kai's" I said through clenched teeth.

"Oh, well could be mine right? We was together when he was up with his chick." This fucking idiot!

"She's not his fucking chick! I am and I told you never to talk about that. It was a mistake… this. Is. Kai's. Baby!" I said punctuating every word in my last statement. And I hung up on da fucker. I gotta get to Kai.

PAM POV

Once I got all the information I needed from that Nani bitch I went to seek out the man that apparently maybe the actual father. That girl doesn't seem right to me.

"Hi" I said with a smile. Better not to scare the breather just yet. I wanna do this without glamour. Leave no room for doubt.

"Whoa, where you came from?" what the fuck ever his name was said…

"Ekolu is it?" I said his name trying to make it sound right.

"Yeah, baby who are you?" he said leering at me. Please.

"Never mind that… I need answers. You are going to give them to me. Tell me of this Nani woman and the baby." I said with a sweet smile.

"Oh… I was with her off and on for years. I really love her. But now she stay with Ikaika.." ok now I'm really board with this… in a flash I was in his face fangs down.

"I don't know what it is about me that makes people think I want to hear their problems… maybe I smile too much… maybe I wear too much pink… Please know that I can rip your throat out if I need too. Are you picking up what I'm putting down? Nani. The baby. Talk." God help me he pissed himself.

"Nan…ni… and me was together one night after Kai left to Louisiana. Could be his, But I think it's mine." He stuttered.

"Good boy. You are coming with me." I took the idiot to Keoni's house. Then we all went to the Palace.

"Ms. Ravenscroft… Good to see you again so soon." Cary smiled at me "What have you got here?"

"According to this idiot, Kai may not be the father of Nani's baby."

"Is that right? Ekolu is this true?" Cary said.

"Ye..sssir…" he replied with his head bowed.

"Get Ikaika in here." He said to one of the guards "You no waste any time yeah?" he asked me. What? I cannot wait to get off this god forsaken rock. The way people speak here is just about as bad as Bon Temps.

"Yes… Pam always made quick work of things… even though she can go for hours." The Queen said with a wink to me. I licked my lips. Maybe a few more nights then. I thought eyeing the Queen and think of the work I'll make of her.

"What have we here?" she asked just as Ikaika entered.

"Your highness, Uncle, sup Oni." Ikaika greeted. Eyeing me cautiously and looking at the idiot confused. "Are you the Vamp that was threatening Nani and my baby?" he spat getting in my face. I smiled. My, my, a male version of Erica.

"Ikaika this is Ms. Ravenscroft." He looked at his uncle not backing away. Not very bright I thought. "She is the Child of the Northman." his head snapped back to me.

"You da Aunty?" he asked shocked.

"Yes, would you like me to break your nose to prove it? How about a lollipop? Sorry haven't got one, I left my Erica emergency kit back in LA." I snarked. Everyone laughed.

"Now that comedy hour is over, let's get down to business..." I said "I have better things to do with the rest of my time here." I said eyeing the Queen

"How is she?" he asked with pleading eyes.

"Not good. That's why I am here. Things don't add up and I'm here to make them."

"Why? What's going on?" Ikaika demanded.

"Speak." I told the idiot

"Sorry Kai. When you left to Louisiana. I found Nani on the beach crying. You know I love her. So I wanted to help and we was together that night. But only that night. I asked her if the baby was mine when I found out she was preganant 'cause the time matches. She said was yours." He finished. I rolled my eyes. What is it with this idiot and speeches. 'Kai, I fucked Nani, the baby might be mine.' See how easy that was.

He didn't even respond he just started dialing. I watched his reaction to everything. This boy really does love Erica… no wonder Eric approves. I'm surprised he even let the girls date at all.

"Shit! She not answering." He looked at me "Can you try." He pleaded.

"Don't you think that we should get the facts from Nani first?" I bored with this whole situation "We certainly can't take this idiot's word for it alone. I heard the rumors he made about Erica all those years ago." Everyone with a brain smiled at me. Ikaika started to storm out the room. I stopped him.

"Ikaika, what do you think you'll get out of her? Let Auntie Pam handle this. It will be my pleasure." I smiled wickedly

"I don't want her hurt." He demanded. I just stared at him. Right he doesn't know how I work.

"Kai, I'd let her… she scary. She only been here one night and she got all her information and Kolu to give it up fast without glamour." Keoni smiled at me and I gave him a wink. Well he's good for more than just a lay, at lease Elly didn't fuck all his brains out… yet.

"Yes let's have Nani brought to the Palace and we will settle this once and for all. Kai give her a call." Cary said.

The Queen invited me for a quick snack. She's right I do work fast. After having my way with her many times Nani was finally brought in.

Nani POV

After seeing Ekolu then that SheVamp I was worried. I wonder who she was. I called Kai.

"Kai, your Uncle gotta help me. Had this Vamp that came by my Dad's house. She was threatening me and the baby."

"WHAT! who was she?" he screamed.

"I don't know she never say. She was just said that I looked good enough to eat. Then my Dad came out and she ran away." I lied… well I couldn't tell him what really happened.

"No worry, my Uncle calling me right now. I'll take care of it." He said and hung up. I relaxed when he called 10 miuntes later.

"That was fast what's up?" I asked

"We got her. She never check in. Come to the Palace and see if this the one you was talking about." He said and I went straight to the Palace.

The guards show me in to the throne room. I walk in and see Kai, Oni, his Uncle the Queen and the SheVamp.

"Yup that's her, she's the one." I walked over to Kai to hold his hand and he jerked away from me.

"What's going on? Kai?" I looked at him.

"Why you no tell me?" he looked pissed "Whose baby is that Nani?" I couldn't believe this was happening.

"What you mean? You know whose it is." I whimpered

"Listen cupcake. Cut the shit. You were with that Ekolu character the night Ikaika left. Now tell us whose baby that really is." Da SheVamp said

"What the fuck you talking about? THIS IS KAI'S BABY! I don't care what anyone one says!" she screamed "Kai…" I said as I reached out to him in tears.

"How can I believe anything you say Nani? You fucked Ekolu you lied to me. Everything out of your mouth is one fucking lie!" he snapped and left the room. I crumpled to the ground.
