SPOV

It was sunset that evening whenever I woke up, still in exactly the same position as the one that I had fell asleep in earlier on this afternoon, and Eric still had is arms wrapped tightly around me.

"Are you awake, lover?" he asked.

"Yeah. Only just though" I replied, as he ran his hand carefully over my hip, and then I not – so – tactfully yawned.

"Sookie?" Eric questioned.

"Yeah" I replied, turning my head and inclining it towards my boyfriend's face so that I could see him as we talked.

"Can you tell me what happened earlier on today while I was asleep? I felt your anger and I can vaguely remember waking up and asking you to come back to bed with me. But that is it. I got shit else" He said.

I sat up, and turned around while I tried to get my thoughts in order, I then took a deep breath before I told Eric what had happened.

"Hadley tried to stake you" I said.

He looked shocked at that. "Do you know why?" he asked.

"Yeah" I nodded in reply. "She said that it was about time that somebody put a stake in you since Sophie Anne was the true Queen of Louisiana, and then something along the lines of you should be staked for what you have done to her.

"And you saved me, lover" Eric said, and I could feel the pride that was currently radiating through him.

"Yeah. Why wouldn't I?" I asked, cuddling in close to him.

"My little Valkyrie" Eric answered, and then proudly pulled me into his lap, giving me a deep kiss on the lips that could have very easily lead to more, if we hadn't been interrupted by Gran and Pam coming into the room.

"Where is Hadley now?" I asked, after I had pulled away from Eric and wrapped myself up tightly in the sheet – rather quickly – I might add.

"Hadley is in the adjoining cell to the Queen that she apparently loves so much" Gran said, with a small hint of heartbreak in her voice.

"Will she be charged tonight along with the others?" I asked.

"Yes, she will – and if she is found guilty she will be sentenced and then transferred to a human prison since she cannot be sentenced to death for her actions" Mr. Catalides said, also entering the room.

Did nobody really care that Eric and I were still naked for crying out loud!

"Couldn't the two of you have for God's sakes kept your hands off of each other for one night" Jason said, barging on into the room.

"In our defence Jason Stackhouse, we were completely alone in here" I fired right back, and after firing a grin at my brother, Eric dipped his head to give me another deep kiss and I could feel the playfulness that was radiating from him through the bond that the two of us shared.

"We will leave you two in peace to get ready, but remember that the trial is due to begin in just under an hour so don't take too long" Catalides said.

"Don't worry, Desmond. You have nothing to worry about. They will be down in five minutes – and that includes giving them time to fuck each other" Pam snarked, causing Eric to growl at her and everyone else to laugh.

"Eric, honey. You know that she is just teasing you. Plus, we would just have to have more rounds of sex if you came within five minutes" I answered, and after giving him another kiss on the lips, I climbed out of the bed, and walked – still completely stark naked (it didn't matter since Eric had already seen me naked many, many times) – to the ensuite bathroom that was attached to the room that he and I were sharing (for the second time today – I just hoped that this trip ended better than the previous one did), and I turned on the shower.

"Are you coming baby? We have a trial to get ready for" I said, peeking out the door to see that Eric was still sitting up in the bed, not having moved a muscle or spoken at all.

"Eric…" I said, trying to pull him out of the trance that he was currently in.

"Yes, I am coming. And so will you in a minute" he answered, climbing out of the bed – at human speed – and then eventually joining me in the bathroom.

"We haven't got time for sex, baby" I said, whenever he wrapped his arms around me. I hadn't quite made it into the shower yet, and was standing with a toothbrush in my hand – also for the second time today. Eric had also wrapped his arms around me from behind, keeping a tight hold of me as he brushed his own teeth at the same time.

"We have time now get in the shower, Miss Stackhouse" he said, after he had finished with the toothbrush. He then playfully slapped me on the ass as he followed me to the shower.

"What makes you so sure that we have got time, Mr. Northman" I all but grinned at him as he pushed me up against the shower wall, and he had laid the palms of his hands against the wall, and his hard dick was poking me in the stomach.

"Because I say we do, Miss Stackhouse" he said, and then lowered his mouth to mine, giving me a deep kiss, that I eagerly returned. My hands then slid themselves around his neck – almost as if it was of their own accord – and Eric's oh so carefully found their way to my hips while he continued to kiss me deeply. However, eventually they found their way to my girly parts and he began to play there as if he were a three year old who had just discovered a new ball pit.

So … what do we think? Review to give me your thoughts …

Also, if I can get up to 375 reviews for this chapter, I might just post again before I go to bed tonight…
