I would like to thank everyone that is following my story, and the reviews. They truly make my day. As always I do not own any of the Characters, they all belong to C. Harris. and I am still broke so suing me is pointless.

Eric knew the moment she pulled up, he could feel her close to him. Feel the comfort she brought with her. Felipe and he were talking about opening up some sort of new venture in the near future but Eric was hardly paying attention. She had been outside for a while now and he was getting worried.

Just then the door opened and Sookie walked in. She really did look like a goddess, her shoulder back head up and a smile that could blind a man. Her dress flowed with every step she took, and all eyes were glued to her.

She reached the table where they all sat and curtsied low. "Your Majesty."

In a flash Felipe was in front of her taking her hand and lifting her out of her curtsy. "Dear Girl, I have waited all night to see you again. Please rise, let me look at you." He swirled her so he could see all of her. Eric felt her tense but her body never showed it. He looked at all present and saw lust in all of their eyes, he even smelled Pam's arousal as she walked in. Quinn's reaction was the worst though, Eric could hear his heart beating faster, his veins pumping blood to his erect dick, his eyes turned so purple they almost looked black. He was scratching his palms he wanted to touch her so bad. Eric wanted to rip out his throat.

'Oh please Eric don't kill him for this. What the hell is Quinn doing here?' Ripped through Eric's head like a bullet making him forget the tiger. There was a split second of reaction from him but luckily only Pam noticed. She gave him a curious glance but he just nodded to her.

Felipe was twirling around Sookie and she knew he said something to her but couldn't hear him over her own thoughts 'Oh Please Eric don't kill him for this. What the hell is Quinn doing here? I wish they would all stop staring at me.'

'Sookie, I can't kill him now but it will happen and as for your ex being here I think it's to fuck with my head, although you are doing a good job at it right now' Eric had thought at her. Sookie looked shocked and Eric glowered at her. Realizing her mistake she found a quick way to fix it.

"Quinn! I never imagined you to be here." She said her smile fixed back into place

'I never imagined seeing you again. Let alone dead and walking into a bar full of vicious blood thirsty vampires looking good enough to eat' He wanted to say. He nodded.

"Please my Dear, come and sit. I am anxious to hear your tale." He still had her hand in his and leading her to the table. "I must say Sookie, death becomes you, you are an absolute vision." He said as he reluctantly released her hand and held the chair for her. She nodded her thanks to him and he resumed his own seat. 'Thank the stars' Sookie thought.

She looked around the table, "Eric. Pam." Sookie said and gave them both a deep nod. She looked at Victor and her smile dropped "Victor."

Victor smiled at her and it reminded her of a crocodile. After ten years she still loathed him, forgiveness be damned. "So Sookie, are you happy to be back with Eric? I mean 10 years without seeing your husband must have been hard on you."

"Husband? Eric is not my husband Victor." She replied slipping a smile on her face. She felt Eric's anger and it was growing.

"But the knife, that night you pledged your life to him." Victor said

"Yes, I did pledge my life that night to him, but as you know, I'm no longer alive."

Sookie felt the rage from him, she knew he was beyond furious now; she had just made him look bad. But she knew that she did the right thing. He lifted out of his seat and grabbed her arm, his fingernails made crescent shapes in her skin. Everyone in the room could smell her blood.

There was a low rumbling sound coming from Quinn and he was about to intervene until Felipe held out his hand telling him to stop.

"Come with me Sookie" Eric said as he dragged her out of her chair pulling him behind her.

She heard Felipe laughing behind her "A lovers spat." Felipe thought it was funny. Victor thought it interesting. Quinn worried about Sookie. Pam worried about Eric and Sookie, and the tattooed guard wanted to drain her after smelling her blood.

Eric dragged Sookie into the office and slammed the door. "What is wrong with you Sookie, are you still mad at me from last night? What would possess you to tell them we aren't wed?" He said in a low voice that only she would be able to hear. Then an idea flitted in his mind. "It's because of the tiger isn't it? Do you not want to hurt his feelings? Do you want to find out if something else is there?" He said as he shook her, his eyes looked like blue flames.

Sookie just stood there letting him though her temper was rising and he could feel it. He didn't want a repeat of last night especially here and with his unwelcome guests. He knew she was about to give him a piece of her mind just hoping it didn't go overboard.

"Are you quite through Mr. Northman?" She asked and waited till he nodded to her. "Good, because I want you to listen to me real effing closely. What I just did out their saved my ass, and if you give a lick for me saved yourself from any grief. May I ask you what your title in the vampire hierarchy is?"

"I am Eric Northman, Sheriff of Area 5 Louisiana. I don't have time for these games Sookie." He answered.

"And Eric Northman, Sheriff of Area 5 Louisiana. To whom do you give your fealty to?"

Eric knew now where this was going and now felt a pang of guilt flush through him. "Ok, Lover, I see where this is going. Can we go back out there so we can get it over with."

Sookie smiled at him and asked. "To whom do you give your fealty to?"

He grinned at her and replied "You my Lover."

She melted. That was no fair she thought, smiling at her like that and telling her that. She wanted him so bad right now. She did all that to prove a point and he screwed up all the fun.

"May we go now?" Eric asked

"No." She said, he raised is eyebrow. "I want you to say 'Sookie, you are right. If we had said that we were indeed married then that would make you claim fealty to the King because I have claimed fealty to the King."

"No." he said as he took her in his arms kissing her, she felt her dress being pulled up and felt him pull her thongs over. His expert fingers glided into her rubbing on her clit as he watched her. She was so aroused he knew it wouldn't take long to get her off. He knelt down in front of her his fingers still in motion and worked on her clit, licking, sucking and nipping. His fingers flicking inside her he felt her muscles tighten around his fingers he moved his mouth and nipped her inner thigh taking a little sip. Her blood was divine and mixed with her cum he could have an orgasm without her touch.

He stood up and held her and whispered in her ear. "Whom do you claim fealty to lover?"

"You Eric, I am yours first and foremost." She said into his chest.

He kissed the top of her head and pulled away. "I'm going to go back out there and let you get yourself back to order." He turned and left closing the door behind him.

She smiled to herself 'he never did say I was right.' She thought.

Pam sat ignoring what Felipe and Victor were talking about, she was wondering if Eric and Sookie were killing each other in the office, but she didn't hear anything. She was itching for this meeting to hurry up and get over with. Since she had seen Sookie walk in tonight she had wanted to catch up with her pet.

Sookie had indeed surprised her so far, her snubbing Victor was genius and behaved as a queen would. Pam had remembered when Sookie was living she was the only human in her undead existence and maybe even her life that she would call a friend. There was a soft spot for her that nobody would ever know she had and so far tonight Sookie had made her proud. Eric was a lucky man, too bad he wouldn't share.

Pam could still smell traces of Sookie's blood in the air, she had never smelled anything like it. It had sweet smell like fairy, the dry smell of vampire, and something else she had never smelt before but it smelled wonderful.

The front door opening disrupted Pam's thoughts, if she had had a heart beat it would have stopped with what she saw step through the threshold. He was about 6'2", his complexion made her think of dark honey, pure black hair waved just at the nape of his neck, eyes the color of jade. She was no longer thinking of Sookie or her pet right now.

With vampire speed Pam was up and at the door. She thought he smelled like earth, wine and cookies, it was delightful in her opinion. "The sign said we are closed."

"Ahhhh, You must be Pam!" He said smiling. If she didn't think he was beautiful before she surely did now showing his perfect white teeth. "I have heard about you from Felipe, he didn't exaggerate when he said you were a beauty." Pam's eyebrow arched. "Though after seeing you I'm not sure you could be as deadly as he said."

"Give it time, maybe you can see firsthand." She said, this man was a bull shitter, but such a gorgeous one and he smelled so delicious.

"Ulfr! I didn't think you would make it. Come sit with us." Felipe said from across the room. He went toward the table Pam behind him.

"Where is the girl of the evening? The one that got you out of your terrible predicament so long ago? Ulfr asked

"Ah, she and her…" Felipe didn't know what Eric was now.

"lover" She interjected and noticed Quinn starting to turn red with anger. She was pleased with his reaction. She loved human emotion and figured that's why she read Dear Abby religiously other than Abby was a genius.

"lover then, had a disagreement. From the faint smell of it I believe they are making up." Felipe continued. His eyes dilated from the smell as did everyone else's other than Ulfr. She looked back at Quinn and he seemed to shake himself quickly as a dog would when it got wet.

Eric strode back to his visitors a much more satisfied man and noticed the new arrival. Friend or Foe was Eric's first thought, but of course there were only two people that he didn't put in the Foe category.

"Eric! I would like you to meet Ulfr, he has been visiting me from Greece." Felipe said. Eric became much more interested in the new man hoping it was just a coincidence.

"Greece? Ulfr is a Norse name." Eric said

"Yes, well… My name scares many people and I was hoping to meet you, I thought Ulfr would be suiting."

Ulfr was the name for wolf in Old Norse and yet this man was no Were.

Just then, Sookie returned in a languor from what had just transpired in the office. She looked up and saw him, "Hades!" She said in a whisper but Eric had heard her.

What will happen after our next commercial break? Sookie has to deal with 1 viking lover, and 2 ex lovers one being a very large kitty cat, the other a God. 'Dun dun dun.' Awkward moment anyone?
