Royal Finnigas had it all.

Money.

Power.

A hot little Immortal with whom he could do whatever he pleased.

He was living the life.

With the Immortal added to his collection, he now felt complete. He had witches to hide and protect him, werewolves to do his dirty work, vampires to provide blood in which order to placate the werewolves, and, now, sweet Immortal blood to placate the vampires.

He was in charge.

He had never thought the Immortal would be so easy to control. Just a few doses of Vampire blood every hour for the past two days and a half and he could get her to do anything.

Anything.

And like the smart man he was, Eric Northman hadn't wasted time trying to find him. He would hate to have to kill the Immortal so that he could keep her.

There was a knock at the door and Royal sat up straight. He wasn't expecting any company tonight.

"Mitchell!" he called and one of his werewolves appeared at his side, bowing.

"Yes my lord?" Mitchell asked.

Royal eyed the door. "Who is out there?"

Mitchell sniffed in the direction of the door. "A vampire, my lord and – and something I can't place."

"Be a good boy and fetch them for me."

Mitchell nodded, hurrying to the door. Royal only need wait a few minutes before Mitchell returned, holding two beautiful blonds by their arms, pushing them forward into the room.

One he recognized.

"Why if it isn't Ms. Blondie from the bar!" he crooned, standing up. "To what do I owe the pleasure? My . . . Mr. Northman didn't send you two to try and come steal away my Immortal did he?"

The vampire stepped forward, looking very serious, very in charge. "I assure you that this Mr. Northman you speak of didn't send us. I come of my own accord with a business deal and a peace offering."

"What could you possibly supply me with, Miss –"

"Pamela Swynford De Beaufort." She grabbed the other girl's arm and pulled her forward. "But it will be just Pamela if you make me your business partner. And I give to you a Mind Reader."

Royal stared at them for a second before he laughed loudly. "What kind of fool do you take me for?"

"The fool who obviously doesn't know a good business deal when it's staring you in the face," Pam responded, angrily.

Royal continued to chuckle. "Alright then, Pamela. If she can really read my mind, what am I thinking?" he asked turning to the other blonde.

She stared at him for a second. "You think we're stupid."

"Well that's quite obvious. I don't –"

"He's thinking about the money that's gone missing," the woman said, pointing at Milton. "The money you noticed was missing the other day. The money that's stuffed under his bed."

Royal looked to Milton who had gone rigid with fear, his eyes on the two woman. "You little Bitch!" he snarled running towards them.

"Roserd!" A vampire ripped down the stairs suddenly, grabbing Milton around the neck, lifting him off the ground and holding him in front of Royal who regarded him cruelly. "And here you were one of my favorite werewolf, Milton."

Royal nodded to Roserd.

The vampire clenched his fist, effectively snapping Milton's neck.

Royal nudged the body away with his toe, stepping towards Pamela and the Mind Reader. He smiled happily. "Why don't we finish this conversation in my office ladies?"

Pam took the Mind Reader's arm again, pulling her out of the living room and after Royal who couldn't be more ecstatic.

He was going to add a new piece to his collection.


Unbeknownst to Royal, Eric Northman was floating outside of his mansion, peering carefully into the windows.

No sight of Serendipity yet.

What if he wasn't keeping her here?

What if he were putting Pam and Sookie in danger for nothing?

What if –?

Eric stopped at a window on the third floor. It was dim and nearly barren except for a bed against a wall.

There were blood stains on the bed.

And there was Serendipity, curled up in a corner with her back to him.

Eric pushed against the window. Locked of course.

Not really caring for anything but how he was going to get Serendipity out of the room, he punched his fist into one of the frames, unlocking the window and flashing to stand next to the door.

Like he thought, a vampire rushed into the room, eyeing Serendipity and the open window. Eric snuck up behind him and stabbed Serendipity's wooden stake into his back to his heart. The vampire gave a short gasp before he disintegrated, his blood and organs falling to the floor.

Eric quickly closed the door, turning back to Serendipity . . . who was dipping her fingers into the vampire's blood and licking it off, a deep look of satisfaction on her face.

"Seren," he muttered, moving slowly towards her.

She had become an addict; that much was easy to see. He wondered how much blood she had in her system, what she was capable of.

He kneeled down across from her, pushing away her tangled hair away from her face. Her eyes snapped up to meet his before she lunged across the pit of blood, surprising him and forcing him to the ground.

Her teeth ground painfully into his neck, breaking the skin without his assistance. He felt her sucking his blood, felt himself getting aroused. . . .

But he pushed her off him, pinning her to the ground. "I want more," she hissed at him.

"I've come to take you home," he responded, shaking his head.

"Take me then," she practically growled. "Take me right here, right now. You can have my blood and my body. I know that's what you want. I can feel you against me."

"No. Serendipity I need you to control yourself."

"Give me more blood!"

"Well look at this." Eric shot to his feet, holding Serendipity behind him, an iron like grip on her arm as she strained to get away from him. Royal grinned, reaching into his pocket and pulling out a vial. "This is what you're looking for, isn't it my little Immortal."

Serendipity dropped to her knees. "Please. . . . Please I need it."

Royal tsked. "Mr. Northman. I really thought we had an agreement, an understanding."

Royal motioned to someone and another vampire moved forward, holding Sookie by one hand and Pam by the other, a silver chain tied around her wrists. "You thought you could play me, didn't you. These two? They belong to you don't they? Well I don't want them. The Immortal is mine and I plan on keeping her."

There was a crash down the stairs, distracting the Collector and his piece. Letting go of Serendipity, Eric rushed forward, crashing into Sookie and Pam's captor, knocking him to the floor and proceeding to rip him to shreds. "Get her out of here!"

Sookie ripped the chain from Pam's wrist, Pam, grabbing her and running forward, grabbing Serendipity and bolting out of the window.

"No!" Royal screamed, running to the window. He spun around, looking furious as he grabbed the abandon stake from the floor. Eric grabbed the man, holding him away from him. Behind him, he felt rather than saw Bill come up behind him, could smell the blood of witches, werewolves and other vampires.

"It's over for you Royal," Eric said coldly. "You messed with the wrong man."

"It doesn't matter," Royal told him, choking out a laugh. "My seed will live forever now. As far as the world knows, I am immortal."

Anger coursed through as he lifted Royal up and sank his teeth into his neck.

Royal laughed until the light left his eyes.
